Griggs looked garbage at 205.

Almost always a mistake to drop in weight classes. I'd say 75% of the time they lose badly - by KO or tap.

Main card is pretty solid tonight. Hope GSP, Kampmann, Bocek, Hominick and - especially - Lawlor can pull out the wins tonight.

Hard to believe that Mark Hominick came close to beating Jose Aldo only 18 months ago.

Now he has lost 4 straight and is probably out of the UFC now.

Pathetic performance tonight.

Hahahaha ... MMA Junkie had it 3-0 Lawlor but the blind judges gave the Negro a split decision. The crowd had the decency to boo at least.

Very typical ....

Wow - Hendricks has heavy hands to go with his wrestling.

If GSP does not fight Silva he will have his hands full with Hendricks.

Can't say this was a boring one...

GSP would have to do something similar to Anderson Silva if/when they fight.

Click to expand...

He needs to replicate Sonnen's strategy from his 1st fight against Silva. IMHO, GSP won't last long if he can't consistently keep Anderson on the mat. GSP has the wrestling and athletic advantage, but Silva has clear striking edge. As for BJJ...I'm not sure. :noidea:

Dixie I agree but I will say GSPs standup is a notch above Sonnen's. I'm more worried about Silva's reach advantage.

Lawlor and his shockmaster weigh-in was hilarious to watch. Shame, the judges got the fight wrong.
