    Whether you like Kenny or not, he's got serious potential to hold the title one day. Gotta feel what Roger has been through, he's seen some ****.

    My dad recorded the fight since he's a UFC fan too. And since I got drunk last night I'm just now seeing it. The only fight I was looking forward to seeing was the kenny vs. Roger. It was an entertaining fight, really disappointed when I found out that kenny won. The GSP vs. Fitch was good. Lesner vs. Herring was okay, boring since Brock completely dominated the fight.

    Penn doesn't deserve to fight him. He needs to fight some good 170 lb fighters first. I personally think Fitch would kick Penn's ass and he got manhandled by GSP.

    I was impressed that Lesnar came out with a flying knee and then almost knocked out Herring with a right jab. Lesnar is scary strong and improved a lot since his last quick fight against Frankie Mir. It seemed like Lesnar toyed with Wild Horse for most of the match. I haven't got around to watching Rush/Fitch fight yet though.

    I might be wrong but keep a eye out anyway. But i am not a huge fan of brock i just don't like heath H, But i really think brock is scared to get hit,and if he does get hit a couple of times i think u guy's might see a different brock than u been seeing. I really think he is lucky that alot of guy's kind of scared of him becaue he is such a big 260 but if any 1 ever stands in there and exchanges with him i think u will see his weak side.

    guy had herring practically knocked out from the get go, then had him in a full mount at one point, and had his back for at least half the fight and did NOTHING to win it. he's far from impressive. the only one i even think he "deserves" to fight is maybe kimbo slice, since they're both just a couple of brawlers and about the same size.

    Tito Ortiz in his earlier years in the UFC would just ground and pound the whole time instead of going into a submission. You have to take in acct that Brock is still learning the UFC "ropes" and that submitting is out of his comfort level. If he doesn't learn any BJJ submissions/defense he'll have a hard time against the top tier heavies in UFC. But I definitely agree that Brock had Herring's back numerous times and did not go for the rear naked choke. Then again he could have been trying to put on a show for his home crowd and was going for the KO. His lack of class needs to go, riding a horse and then roping it as well as pointing at Herring b/w the 2nd and 3rd round will get him a good beat down by a much more established fighter.

    what's scary on that youtube clip of him punching herring is that Brock doesn't really "wind up" to throw it. Just a straight punch from his shoulder that sends Herring head over heels.
