@The Rock we're not jumping the gun at all. Dana already said in a live Q/A a couple days ago that he wanted Spong in the UFC and that he'd see what happens. Also it's inevitable, he obviously wasn't facing the elite it was his debut..

Anybody saying that was a bad stoppage...technically it was but do you honestly want him to get up and get dropped again...he was clearly done. Good stoppage, it was over.

@JM I sort of see what you're saying, but think about it like this, if Mazzagatti doesn't stop the fight Spong would have hurt him badly, had he realized he was fighting MMA.

I'm not a big fan of the idea of gifting guys UFC contracts based on what they've done in other sports. Let him get his feet a little bit more wet. Hell, it was only 3 minutes and his opponent didn't attempt to clinch or take him down at all. Everyone knows he's going to win a stand up fight most of the time. I'd rather see him face a few more guys outside of the UFC than get a contract to the UFC and wind up getting wrestle ****** to a boring decision and pink slip. Just my 2 cents

BTW that wasnt a a walk off KO, Spong definitely thought it was an 8count.

everyone has a crystal ball

you can tell the future?

bottom line is it was a terrible stoppage bad Steve...... yet again

what may even be more funny than the terrible stoppage is the people sucking on  Spong probably only have seen highlights of him

@Curt lol, Bjorn's contracts have more fine print than insurance policies.

agree with @jm_barrie.   it was not a knockout and bartlett was still with it. 

in MMA you need to finish the fight, have your opponent tap out, or have your opponent be unable to intelligently defend himself.

mazzagatti should have at least asked bartlett if he wanted to continue.

JM Berrie I thought it was weird that you are the only one complaining about the Spong stoppage, checked your pick and it makes sense now...

He looked like he was done. Not physically, but mentally. The fact that he himself didnt protest the stoppage at all is pretty telling.
