What was the purpose of the exhibition? Couldve been staged?

Damn I wasn't expecting Silva to KO Jardine that early in the fight. Nate was also impressive, although I would've love to see how he handled Maia on the ground.

edit: I still don't believe the Thiago Silva hype. Good fighter, overrated.

Yeah. That was obvious after Mousasi released that omaplata. Commentators were suck**ng Fedor's n*ts like crazy at the beginning. Would Fedor be able to slam Brock that easily?

Randy landed alot of shots on Nog, but no power was in the punches. Lesnar has power and I'm 100% sure he can drop Nog.And I'm glad Lil' Nog is signed. We can see some great matchups in LHW division, even a rematch against Shogun.
True. But im not to certain of brocks standup. I mean Randy has beaten guys like liddel in standup but i dont think brock has been tested to much on the feet yet.

I had doubts about the Maia fight & now I know why. Nate has dangerous KO power. As far as threats to Silva's MW belt, I'd say he's easily #2 behind Hendo. Knew Vera was going to win. I thought Randy'd beat Nog easily. The Randy who beat Chuck would kill the Randy that fought Nog.

I disagree. I think this was Randy at his best. He wasn't going to take Nog down. That's too risky, and he wouldn't want to box with Nog either. This was Nog's W for sure. The only chance I gave Randy was if Nog came in unhealthy as we've seen him in the Mir fight.
No diss to Handy but Nog outclassed him in every aspect of the fight game.
He looks older than Randy
Originally posted by Dr. Leg KickYeah. I don't know how he got beat up by Mir. Mir must hit waaay harder than Randy. Randy seemed gassed out at the end of the fight when he was on top. I wanted him to G&P, but he looked too tired.

It makes sense because Nog's boxing is almost at an Olympic caliber level. The guy trained with Cuban boxing team.
That's not taking anything away from Mir, but let's be realistic.
