Just watched 162. Still stunned. But then I think, how can I be stunned when the guy is taunting his opponents to punch him in the face, with his hands down?

But.... I'm still stunned because he's gotten away with it for so long.

I love Shogun, but it's obvious he needs to find another training base.

Yep, good card. The Barnett/Mir fight ended too quickly, The Pettis submission was a verbal submission, so it took a couple seconds for anyone to work out what just happened.

Another show tomorrow, plus the new TUF season starts. A huge 8 days of UFC!

Hunt vs Silva rumoured for Oz on December 21st. City yet to be named. Please let it be Adelaide! I'm saving for a wedding and honeymoon so I don't think I can afford another trip to Sydney.

I had Gus taking three of the rounds, but you can justify either fighter winning.
