Anyway, I'm happy that Jacoby got the **** because I can see him being in some exciting fights at 205. Medic, I am still unsure because he's only smashed bums!!! Gonzalez was a walk over!! Leavitt is like Ryan Hall, I think he'll struggle against someone who will keep it on the feet.
I think a lotta guys are going to get contracts this season because the UFC need replacement fighters these days!!

@Tieoken
>Wow. Dana paid those judges off. That scoring was the most ludicrous judging I’ve seen in a long time.
I disagree. I think Dana would have been far more interested to get Rodríguez to the UFC. Just think about how important it is for the UFC to penetrate the Mexican market deeper and get market shares in Mexico from boxing.
In the US and Canada MMA has surpassed boxing. But not in Mexico. So strategically thinking Dana White would need to do sth. to make MMA/UFC more popular in Mexico.
Signing well-know Mexican fighters could be a way.
Hence Dana White had no interest to manipulate the judges so that they would give the decision to Rivera. Even he would have manipulated the judges he would have done in favor of Rodríguez and not in favor of Rivera.
The official decision was correct. Rivera deserved the win absolutely, imho.

He just finished Tony Lo in some kb bumfight either tony is past gone or he has plenty of power.
He splattered Karl Roberson too both with big pillow gloves, Ty is probably just tough.
