Earlier this week, I came across the Yahoo Half year awards, and decided, once again, Coefield had no clue, If you like, you can read the original.

Previously, I debated the Fighter of the year, and spent WAY too much time looking at pictures of Clint Howard.

So now, I present the:

Breakout Fighters of the Half-Year

1. KING MO

Is there any doubt? Strikeforce had one guy that they could say is a top 5 205er, on a 15 fight winning streak over FOUR weight classes and 4 years. Then Mo comes out, full of piss and Vinegar and utter makes him look like a rank amatuer on TUF. Mo is the king if a very thin division, and the fact he couldn???t be the first man to KO Mosasi only opens the door for someone to take this spot in the next six months.

Read the rest of the top 5, and the utter BS of the Yahoo List.

Not sure I could add much more to that. But even though Rory MacDonald lost to Condit, eye think he opened some eyes in that fight, and is the future of the division along with Hathaway. And Dominick Cruz beatdown Bowles for the 135 belt in WEC. I thought he looked ok in his previous fights against, but against Bowles he looked unbelievable.Nice list BTW.

To be honest, The WEC footprint is not much bigger than bellator to me right now, without Versus on my provider. Normally, when I get the WEC its on the net.
