NIB the only BTLS has a show in Sirius, is that who you mean? That show is crazy, Bubba is a maniac and so is the rest of the crew.

ProfessorM I agree that Bisping lost that fight. Also the middleweight division is great I agree. Anderson Silva is fighting Dan Henderson in a couple of months, I really like Silva. He's undefeated in the UFC and a devastating striker with crazy submissions. Henderson is great too should be a good fight.

I was wrong on all of my prior predictions but one. BJ Penn did win by submission in the second round over Joe Stevenson(I mixed him up with Joe Riggs sorry bout that) and prior to that grazed his forehead with an elbow and Stevenson was bleeding like you wouldn't believe. The amount of blood left in the octagon was crazy looked like a slaughter house! Penn choked him out in the second but Stevenson showed alot of heart to keep fighting through that.
Gonzaga lost by TKO. He looked good early knocking Werdum down with leg kicks, but he faded in the second round and got pinned agianst the fence and ground and pounded out.
Another guy from Milford, Mass fought too, Jorge Rivera, and won by devastating knockout over Kendall Grove from the Ultimate Fighter. Was a great UFC almost every fight was a KO.
Also Jones beat Trinidad by UD and knocked Tito down a couple times as well. I didn't get that ppv as it will be on for free next weekend if you have HBO. IMO UFC ppv's give you more bang for your buck.
Theres also a free UFC Fight Night on wed of this coming week on Spike TV. Some good fights on the card should be very entertianing.

NIB if you have spike TV there is a free UFC on wed night this week. Also every thursday they show former UFC's on UFC unleashed. Great way to familiarize yourself with the fighters and the sport, and best of all its free. Trust me if you have a spark of interest in the UFC, watch a couple and you'll be hooked. IMO there is nothing better in the summer than watching a live UFC on Sat night until 12-1am, then going fishing till the sun comes up! Maybe my wife is right, I have issues...

Penn is great and is an excellet tactician. Although I have to admit, I thought his career was over with that loss to Matt Hughes in 06.' It just felt like he had given up after that. But, he seems back with a vengance which is a good thing for the UFC.

The Gonzales knockout of Cro-Cop was as devastating a knock out as you will ever see. I watched it live with my brother, we were completely stunned by that kick.

I can't get enough UFC either.

If I recall correctly the Gonzaga Kro Cop fight was free live on Spike Tv. That was definitely knockout of the year for the ufc, only I couple I've seen that could even compare to that.

Penn's is much bigger stronger lightweight than he is welterweight. In that rematch with Penn and Hughes Penn dominated the first round, but gassed later in the fight and as you said pretty much gave up. In the past he has relied on technique and talent more so than training. He seems to have matured and is really applying himself now. He won the lightweight title on Sat night cause the former champ(Shawn Sherk) tested positive for steriods after his last fight with Hermes Franca and was stripped of the title. Now Sherk will fight Penn and this will be a real test for BJ. If he trains his ass off he will win, but if he doesn't he's in real trouble. Sherk is an animal and never stops coming forward and is always ready to go the distance. To bad for Sherk he tainted his image by taking steriods, but good for the UFC for stripping him of the title.

The best part was he knocked out a guy that is known world wide for his knockout kicks. Little bit of his own medicine. I respectfully disagree with you about the Silva fight though, although he is giving up a lot in age, he is one tough cookie and I think he will win. He gave Rampage all he could handle and has way, way more experience, esp. against heavyweights. Hell he knocked out the other Brazilian Silva, Axe murder, and I just don't think the other Silva is in his league. It should be a great fight. Please post who wins as I won't be getting the pay for view probably. I will have to wait for the reruns
