That Barboza kick was sick... It's crazy what people are getting caught with in MMA these days.

Yeah dude. Spinning wheel kick. MMA fights are looking more and more like movies nowadays lol. Edson Barboza is just too awesome.

Aldo's KO was pretty nasty too.

Anthony Johnson has been cut from the UFC. It's a shame he couldn't figure out how to be more effective given his size. If the weight cut hurt him that badly, he should have moved up.

Would have loved to see another Gonzaga loss, but he pulled through unfortunately.

The kick.

He moved from WW to MW, and still didn't make cut... I don't think he had much of a camp.

Munoz is out w/recent arm surgery. Bisping takes his place against Fail. Never thought I'd say this, but I'm rooting for Bisping.

It's a little over a month old, but Miguel Torres was cut for referencing a rape joke from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

He's been reinstated IIRC

I checked around. It looks like he was reinstated.

Also, it appears the quote is from Workaholics and not Always Sunny according to newer sources. I watch both of those shows and I don't remember the quote from either though.

What are everyone's picks?

I give Diaz the edge over Condit, but I hope beyond hope that Condit destroys him and proves me wrong.

Koschek beats Pierce.

Hah, Condithas ended the diaz menace once and for all.

I picked Condit @ SHH &I'm glad as hell I was right. Diaz is such a whiny *****. If he hadn't have been such a dickhead the 1st time around he'd have already gotten his shot @GSP. **** him

Condit just vanquished the evil forces of Nick Diaz last night. He is a real hero.

Nick Diaz, you had your shot at GSP and you blew it....twice. Now, you'll have to settle for losing to Koschek and Fitch if you're fortunate enough to fight them. Well, that's assuming you don't keep your promise to retire because you lost. Keep whining.

Oddly enough, GSP wanted Diaz to win just so he could shut Diaz up.

lol, its like nicks whining is infectious. His fans are now going on about how he was robbed or how Condit didnt stay in the middle and brawl it out with him.....smh its called footwork. lol so much for Diaz's unstoppable boxing.

Yeah, Diaz fans and the average uneducated noobfans are hilarious. They don't understand that fighting is more than swinging for the fences and hoping for the best.

Interesting quote from GSP,

"I am very nervous that Carlos Condit will win on Saturday night, and that I won't be able to fight Nick Diaz this summer."

Lol. GSP wanted to beat Diaz so badly and was scared Condit would steal the chance from him. Looks like he was right.

Welcome to the UFC Nick Diaz. Go back and fight cans in strike force. 😈

I actually kinda feel bad for GSP. It's rare for GSP to want fight someone so badly, and mean ol' Condit beat him to it.

There's a chance GSP and Diaz will never meet now. Diaz could try to work his way back, but Koschek and Fitch will beat the shit out of him. The only other option is if GSP continues to pressure Dana for it.

I want a Diaz/koscheck fight so badly now. The beef would be LEGENDARY.

Dana wants a Carlos / Diaz rematch because a lot of people think the fight was close and that Diaz as robbed (those people must smoke more pot than Diaz, but there is a lot of them on the popular MMA forums and twitter right now), but I can't see Condit agreeing to it.

Nick had nothing, I had Condit a head on all five rounds, Diaz might have got the 5th... but the idea that Diaz took three rounds is insane. He did nothing. His speed and foot work are terrible! If the person he is fighting doesn't plant their feet and bang with him he has nothing to offer.

Kosh looked terrible last night. What was his corner doing? Was there no one there to tell him to start letting his hands go. After GSP worked him over with a jab for five rounds you would have thought he'd have learned how useful it can be... but instead he bumbles around looking for that overhand right.

Yeesh, i have been agoing around reading MMA forums and have just realized that many people in the MMA fan community are retarded. Some of the defenses ive seen being put up for Nick diaz are downright silly. Some have even tried to discredit the entire leg kick facet of striking. Carlos slipping punches landing and then resetting in the centre of the octagon is being called "running". Its no wonder the boxing community considers most mma fans to be the intellectual equals of nick diaz..

He actually did turn his back and run to the center of the octagon, though.
