    Ignoring the round and technique predicitions, and the fact that aleksander didn't fight, that was pretty damn accurate by t-ha! The only ones were Anthony Johnson (which was debatable) and JT Money, who cost me money, 'cos I had an accumulator on it & he lost it on me!

    So I left out a letter!

    Anyone else think the ref could have stepped in a bit quicker (or maybe anderson could have stopped hitting- Like Arlovski did) and saved the sandman from that nasty cut (I think the last punch did it!) ?

    I think we're safe with the spoilers now.......?

    It kinda looked to me like Anderson wasn't throwing full power punches when irvin was on the ground. Only watched the fight once or twice so I could be wrong but I thought he pretty much knew it was over but just kept throwing the hand while waiting for the ref to step in?
