Guida had no answers for his stand-up. Too bad his corner did not advise him to keep it standing. I hope Kim work on his striking and conditioning. The fight against Karo was a draw. Not a Parisyan victory. Too bad Jon Jones doesn't know how to finish fights and gassed out really early. But when he puts his skills together I think any LHW will be in for a surprise against that kid. He started out by striking when the opportunity presented itself and providing as much damage when the time was right throughout the 1st and only round. There are many boxers that proved to be very elusive, stick and move. I'm sure the FightMetrix numbers on this fight will be crazy. That victory was and is listed as a KO. Thiago Silva went to sleep, not TKO, nothing technical about that. One punch. One round. The only thing I took note about the GSP-Penn fight was the bigger man smothering the smaller man. And then there's how huge Thiago Alves looks when he's not cutting weight. I can't weight to see what game plan GSP will use to dismantle Alves, maybe his chin is suspect but untested. Kenny Florian and Jon Fitch are happy. As far as restless fans watching decision after decision, get in the ring, the cage and do something different. Or sit back and enjoy the show.
