Not Torres' best fight, but I'll take it if he wins. That will make me 2 for 3 with no perfect. That means only 100 points so far, but oh well, I've done way worse.

Is it just me, or does Torres fight a lot more cautiously since his loss to Brian Bowles?

I don't know how you scored a round for Pace. Torres took every round comfortably, the fight wasn't even close. Pace had a TD and Pass in the 2nd but got torn up from the bottom and then eaten up against the cage.

Got Tibau by decision.  Dos Anjos definitely has a chance to win this fight though.

I don't disagree with you Bigj383, but anymore the way judges score fights, if a fighter gets a takedown in a round, then usually the judges score that round for the fighter in top position. Usually.
