    I met Pearson (i had a few on me) all I could think of asking him was ''Whats it like getting kicked by Edson Barboza?'' :rolleyes: Still feel like a prick to this day for that,great bloke he is.

    Ross is a top man. No idea how he pulled Kristie mind, but he'd probably tell you the same thing. :pac:

    he won't takedown fresh Hunt, only if he gasses. And in last fights Mir has improved his stand up skills, so i think Mir will stand with Hunt and gets KO'd in first

    Why do you think that? Hunt hasn't exactly got elite wrestling.
    Besides he doesn't need to take Humt down to leg lock him.

    Mir will get a tagged a few times, then goes for an imanari roll. It ends there, either Hunt pounds him out or Mir gets the heel hook.

    Anybody else think Pearson is undervalued verses Laprise. Wouldn't have put him as the dog.

    Yep, I do. It stood out to me when searching through the odds. You never know what you're going to get from Ross but I'd certainly have him as the favourite here. Most analysts seem to fancy Pearson here too. I'll be having a small punt.

    Nothing says "this is going to be a long night" like Jon Anik commentating on fights.

    Not great from Patrick there imo, expected better considering Brown was a last minute replacement. Would have expected a finish atleast.

    He must be one of the worst fighters in the game with a 13-1 record.

    To be honest, his body was probably all over the place given that he only made his way to the Octagon at 9am local time.

    Fairly ridiculous, the last Stockholm event was the opposite they went into the octagon at like 1am local time, fairly poxy on the fighters.

    Pearson won the battle of the walkout songs now it's just the fight left to win.

    Laprise will be crippled by the end of this fight if he keeps eating those inside leg kicks.

    Perason is very polished in this fight. Love the way he's disguising that leg kick by faking a jab. Beautiful stand up.

    Great fight, have Pearson edging it myself if it stays like this but would imagine it'll be a split.

    As soon as I say that he starts getting tagged, really enjoyable fight.

    Havnt a clue who won that now.

    Good fight I think Pearsons aggressiveness might nick it for him.

    Gamebred spot on I'd day his aggressiveness got it, mad scoring though 30-27 is outrageous

    Some strange scores there. All 3 judges scoring 3 rounds clearly for both fighters? Odd.
