@free yeah it should probably be changed to show whether someone is banned or suspended.  I suspended him for 3 days.

Man if Salikhov would just use lateral movement going backwards and drop a right hammer he could really make Santos pay for these taekwondo-esque blitzes.

I'll go Zaleski there. But all I wanted from him was to try and stop the fight in the third, not even get it, just to make my selection look like it had a chance.

30-27 Zaleski.

As usual I wrote an essay on why he was going to win and then just decided to pick the opposition based on nothing.

29-28 dos Santos...my expectations for this fight were a bit too high I guess
