But there's no mistaken Nelson's talents. He's a real mma fighter; a good one despite his burly looks. Nelson has been beatdown before. But there’s no mistaken Nelson’s talents.

I'm not so easily impressed, I guess. But I came on here three months ago and said Nelson would not win. It took until his win over Brendan Schaub on Saturday night for me to be impressed. Not so much by his fighting but that was a helluva knockout. So I say this: yes, I was wrong. Nelson won. These things happen. I still think he's a dink and I hope his next opponent will give him a beatdown like he's never seen before!

But seriously, that last fight looked a whole helluva lot like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1eFdUSnaQM The only difference is that it was five times longer!!! Before I have to sit through another one of these snoozefests, can I get some of whatever the hell Dana White was on? Did you notice when he stood up and gave his standing ovation that everyone else was looking at him like he was high? Maybe he was.... sigh

But hey, before I didn't much care for Kimbo Slice. Now I see he's actually a pretty decent guy ... who just happens to not be an mma fighter. Funny thing is that I am liking Roy Nelson as a person less and less as the show goes on.... First prediction: check! lol

Quite honestly I wanted to see that second fight go to a third round just to see them both collapse from exhaustion. Terrible, terrible, terrible. It actually reminds me of earlier seasons where guys fought so hard just to cut weight. Didn't you know you were coming here? Didn't you know you were going to have to weigh-in at a certain weight? Duh! Same as these guys. Didn't you know you would have to fight longer than three minutes? Have you heard of cardio? BTW, what the hell fight was Mazzagatti watching? He kept saying "awesome fight". I don't know what he was talking about.... I love watching the little guys in WEC because the matches are so fast-paced. The only thing the big guys are good for is an awesome knockout. When it goes to decision, it is rarely an entertaining fight.

They are evolving and their skill sets are becoming more technical and concise...like the not-so-big boys. :-) I'm currently putting together a list of top up-and-coming big men in mma; a definite list of big men that some haven't heard of, that are making their marks in mma.

I really have a feeling Kimbo is not going to get very far ... or Roy Nelson for that matter. I think your winner will be someone you don't expect! (How's that for an obvious prediction?!)
