Predictions: 8 of 9 Winners, 2 Perfect, 480 Points | Tied for 1322nd
Well, he finally made it here and Benson Henderson graciously extended the Red Carpet with a title shot debut. Gilbert lost. Dropping a razor-sharp decision to Henderson is far from a disgrace.
This fight with Sanchez was just the thing to mark him as an exciting as well as great fighter. I'm hoping they give Gilbert a title shot as his next fight.
And can anyone now not salivate at the prospects of Diego moving to WW to fight Nick Diaz???
What an epic show that would be. That would be 15 minutes of MAYHEM! Or better yet, make it the head-liner and go 25 minutes of CHAOS and MAYHEM.

As much as I love Diego, I don't over-rate him. I just dream of the best possible fights in a perfect world.
If Diego started a trash-talk campaign to bait Nick out of 'retirement', maybe Nick could be courted to fight to save face.

Yes he does Bill, and that´s why Diego has been number 3 on my list of favorite fighters for a very long time.

One of the fighter's with the most experience in MMA, Wanderlei Silva is a prime example of a fighter who is of high intensity, but from what I have seen in Wanderlei's career for the most part, he'll stop when a fighter is knocked completely out. I've seen him do this with Stann, Minowa, 3rd Sakuraba fight, a few others.
I have seen a few fighters do this, but they might be doing it for the walk away factor. I know that they are told to go until the ref stops them, but do you really need to land 2-3 extra punches? Martial Arts teaches control, so I would image that after you've knocked a person out 1-2 times in the past, you would have that experience and know a future opponent is out cold.
This is in no way an attack on Amagov, I think it's just becoming all too normal to smash your opponents head in 2-3 times after they are knocked out.
