I'm glad to get the pick on that last fight, but so far this event is not doing anyting to really twist my nipples. Thank God for Coors Light, for which I have plenty.

It wasn't really ********. Round 1 was Carmont, Round 2 was Lawlor, Round 3 was extremely close. The fight could have been a draw.

What a ******* robbery! When your home crowd is booing the decision when just 10 minutes ago they were cheering for you, then you know there is something wrong.

I don't like it. MMA is just like a boxing where you have no chance to win by decision in the city of your opponent. Unfair and makes me hate UFC.

While I got the pick, Carmont didn't win that fight. Hell, even Canada didn't agree with that.

there can't be a robbery in a fight where there was no winners...that was an awful fight all the way around. most of that was on lawlor so i wouldn't give him a decision. i woulda gave em both a loss lol but in carmont's defense if a guy is just gonna keep pressin u against the cage and doing nothing with it. u have to be a superior grappler to stop em from doing it...its pretty difficult to stop

Uh... I guess that's why Dos Anjos and Garza lost.

Dana White
Who cares! They both lost that fight.
