UFC 92 Review

By: Guido

I must admit, Rashad Evans is good. He's a cocky piece of shit but he can fight. Forrest took the first two rounds. Rashad caught a kick and took Forrest down in the third round. Rashad's power punches in the guard were more than Forrest could withstand. The ref stopped the fight with Forrest visibly dazed and unable to intelligently defend himself. Rashad will probably defend his title against the winner of Lyoto Machida and Thiago Silva.

Frank Mir looked fucking awesome. He picked apart Minotauro from the opening second. Mir is known for his superb submissions but Sciencedamn, his boxing was jaw-dropping. Mir dropped Minotauro THREE TIMES in the first round. Mir never engaged in bjj. He waited for the ref to stand the fight back up. He caught Minotauro in the second round and that was the end of that. Brock Lesnar will get his rematch with Frank Mir. Lesnar looked great against Couture and looked good in his quick loss to Mir back in April. Fuck! I can't decide who will win this future Heavyweight Title fight...I was so impressed by Mir's boxing...Lesnar is so quick for his size...Mir's submission skills are second to none...Lesnar is an animal with superhuman strength...Okay, I'm taking Mir but only because I'm rooting for him. It's gonna be a pretty pretty pretty pretty good fight.

Rampage made little work of Silva. Silva was knocked unconsience within minutes of the opening round. A left hook. An exact mirrored shot of the punch that left Chuck Liddell out in the cold last year. Rampage had been training with the Wolfslair, a training group in England. Wolfslair is also the home to Michael Bisping and Cheick Kongo.

Not a bad PPV. I was incredibly disappointed in Forrest not winning. I was also pulling for Silva but I really enjoyed seeing Rampage NOT act like a fool on the way to the octagon. Not to mention the fact that Rampage is training with Wolfslair. Cool Beans.
