I just wonder how badly Rumble would've done against Jones.
I was rooting for the guy, but given the condition he was in with DC, Bones would've just picked him apart.

I think he would of faired well but he got to hype after he flattened DC like a pancake with that one punch. He hasn't been this wild since he came back and I think he thought DC would be easier considering Jon Jones washed him out the last two rounds of their fight. The problem becomes who's the next challenger, Bader?.

They must be desperate for challengers if Bader is the guy they're going to hype up as next in line

Fight could be interesting but DC would wash him. I'm not under the same opinion that Jones deserves a title fight once he come back. He got in trouble and he took what he had for granted. I would make him fight Gus and that would still be a money fight because let's be real that's what Dana and UFC is interested in, the money.

Which is a shame, Diedrich Bader was a great Batman, DC should cut him some slack. It occurs to me I might misunderstand what is being discussed.

I'm more impressed with cowboy making a guy say "no mas" and tap out standing

Here is a video of the DC/Bader press conference shouting match..
But seriously DC is right about Bader being an easy paycheck.

Styles make fights, as cliche as it sounds.
I think Gus is a nightmare for DC, but his stock has dropped considerably since getting blitzed by Rumble.
Bader, on the other hand... that's the epitome of the UFC hype machine building someone to be much more than what they really are.

I finally got to finish the main card. Shock of the night has to be the Browne loss. Man, at this rate he'll be unranked in no time!

Well to be honest when the fight was first announced I figured Browne would take it due to Arlovski's dodgy chin ( I then flip flopped going with Pitbull). But looking back Arlovski winning really isn't that much of a upset when you consider that he is the much superior striker and the only real advantage Browne had was toughness. When he doesn't fight stupid the Pitbull is one truly scary mofo.
