Main Event:

BJ Penn showed what he's capable of tonight. I think that Kenny Florian would have destroyed the BJ Penn of 6 months ago... it's amazing what a good ass whooping can do for your motivation. Great job on BJ's part. I think Kenny will get another shot at some point.

A. Silva is scary. Damn scary. My heart broke a little in watching Forrest getting torn apart like that, seemingly easily by the best p4p fighter in the world. Forrest has a long hard walk ahead of him towards another title shot. Will the Zuffa wonder twins really "Make it happen" between Lyoto and A. Silva?

Amir Sadollah was **** Robbed. Nevermind the 5-6 ILLEGAL STRIKES TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD REF!... the fact that he TRIPPED and was in the middle of standing up when the fight was stopped was friggin' piss poor officiating. Stop taking tips from Yves Levigne on how to ref.

Josh Neer got wet blanketed (Like how I made that into a verb?). Let's see Pellegrino and Clay Guida in a who can dry hump from the top position the longest match.

Shane "Sugar" Nelson got overmatched. I think he was very nervous to start out and just out-classed.

I really truly wish that Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan would choke one another out. I don't think they've managed to ever be as **** annoying as they were tonight.

In my opinion, start showing the stats between rounds. Strikeforce does it and the commentators can actually speak intelligently about the rounds immediately after they happen. None of this hap-hazard stoner part-time comedian crap.

Anyone else notice Joe Rogan introduce Matt "Hughes" at the weigh ins? Awesome job bonehead.
