    Not a single kick thrown in that fight! Sloppy fight with lots of wide swinging and missing. Gordon should have had that only he gassed badly there.

    brandao looked great in round 1, lots of nice takedowns and sub attempts.

    That was looking like a good scrap, damn shame! Brando by stoppage win was buying money in (20/20) hindsight. All class from Brando being interviewed now

    /edit I'm a big Joe Rogan fan but he's doing his over-stepping the mark thing here, giving out about the stoppage like he's a doctor. Calm down Joe.

    i think so, grappling was good, paced himself although some of his stand up was sloppy

    Check out Lyotos latest tweet seems to be holding that left arm like he was at weigh in. Really starting to think he has an injury now

    Very nice indeed. Mizugaki is no slouch but his jiu jitsu has always been kinda ropey in fairness.

    Can't say I can recall ever seeing an arm triangle finish from the bottom before. Nice!

    Good stoppage, Anderson was goosed. Very nice right hand that wobbled him.

    WOW, I thought Villante had hurt his leg as he stopped throwing kicks, then he cracks him right under the ear. Crazy finish, who knows what way the judges would have went

    /edit Villante was putting on a leg kick clinic for the first half of that fight

    This card has taken shape nicely, my connection stuttered when Cummins got Kayo'd, pity, I'd like to have caught it. Crazy punch.

    Who gets the sub here? Hope it's Miller

    Lads how do they differentiate between a KO and a TKO? e.g. why was the Villante finish a TKO but the OSP one a KO? In both cases there was one big shot that rocked the opponent but the fight was stopped by the ref during the subsequent flurry of blows.

    My understanding was a TKO was when you get a flurry of blows with nothing coming back but the guy is not "knocked out" but not defending himself.A KO is a knockout where the guy goes limp and is "out" for a few secs. The OSP one had Cummins go limp from the blows so its a KO.

    This is the way I think of it. I could be all wrong!

    Yes I actually had that Hunt KO in mind. But the OSP KO was nothing like that:confused:

    he was out though if not out cold

    I'm sure someone can probably explain it better than me
