Don't know what was so special about Melendez/Thompson 3. Especially to have it at the number 2 spot.

Yeah, no real "holly cow" moments. How can you have fights that went the distance in the top 10 without any memorable moments?

Jones/Evans doesn't belong there.
Anger he smiles towering in shiny metallic purple armour
Queen jealousy, envy waits behind him
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
Blue are the life giving waters, taken for granted
They quietly understand

As short as it was, Rousey vs. Tate was prob my favorite fight so far this year, it was the only fight so far that I actually caught myself pretty much jumping around like a retard, and the finish was picture perfect

Yeah that was a great fight. Big Rousey fan.

agreed, that fight was actually rather terrible


I think it belongs up there. It was the first time that Jones actually lost a round, but at the same time rounds 4 and 5 were drawn out way too long

I dont think it does. Considering the hype it put my friends and I to sleep after round 3

No the people who are saying Shogun is ducking are just dumb haters. I mean think about it. Shogun has fought Jones (who is considered by many to be the best there is) without hesitation and if given the opportunity would fight Jones again in a heartbeat. Does that sound like someone who ducks fights to you?
