Doesn't show up in weight.
Doesn't show up to UFC obligations.
Doesn't show up for sit down interview.
Is it any surprise that he didn't show up for the actual fight? Good riddance Diaz brother.

Take a look. That's the last you'll see of Nate Diaz before Bellator puts him out there with some lip-synching no-name Stockton rapper.

Dos Anjos looking very impressive, still think the shot should go to Khabib if he's good to go.

So are Joe and Dana saying that the Jon Jones/Matt Hamil fight should have been a no-contest? If I recall, Jones hit him with a 12-6 elbow and Hamill was unable to continue after it. It is a judgement call essentially. While Jones used an illegal elbow in the process of finishing Hamil, it can be argued that the vast majority of the damage that led to Hamil being unable to continue was before the elbow in question. It would be similar to disqualifying a fighter for a punch to the back of the head when the shot that knocked his opponent out came before the illegal hit. It is an unfortunate grey area in the sport.

Hoping Miocic wins this one because if Junior gets another title shot against Cain he's going to be vegetable by the end of it.

It is an unfortunate grey area in the sport. I remember the fight. During a commercial I read about it to refresh myself with the situation. Jon has a good case because Matt Hamill could not continue because of a shoulder injury unrelated to the illegal elbows. The referee (the infamous Steve Mazzagatti) tried to ascertain if Hamill could continue, but Hamill (who of is deaf) did not respond. Jon's camp says the ref should have asked Hamill's interpreter to help ascertain if Hamill needed more time to recover from illegal blow or if he had to stop due to the elbow.

Benson loses to the champ and the number 2 contender... after practically clearing out the division, and is ranked #7. Nothing makes sense anymore.
Yes, I know Cowboy is on a win streak, but he lost to Diaz and Pettis badly, and Bendo twice.

And now a fight everyone wants to see a guy lose for sake of variety/longevity of the fighter.

Stipe's doing... well.
As I type that, he gets rocked, but back in.

Stipe has definitely figured out the rhythm when JDS circles away off the cage.

I'm a casual fan, but I'd give that round to Miocic.

I think Stipe did indeed study Junior's fights against Cain.
And he just got the takedown.

That takedown late could have won him round 2 as well. (Miocic)
