Looks like everybody was crying last night.

Well...that was disappointing for Strikeforce. The BS at the end was horrible and the announcer made it worse with his "Sometimes this happens in MMA". No, it doesn't asshole. Diaz brothers both grabbing and punching at Mayhem was just shitty and they should be banned from cageside from now on. Whole card was shitty, I said at the beginning that I expected 3 decisions and that's what we got. Bonus: I look like Nostradamus. Bad part: I think the 3 people that watched it with me won't be back. Let alone all the people who watched it for the first time tonight on CBS.

I really wasnt surprised either since it was D League.

To be fair. If Mo took one of those upkicks flush, Aoki somehow broke Gilberts arm, and Shields stayed out from that first right hand, we'd all be clamoring how awesome this card was.

So if it was completely different we'd be happy?

[Rhyis.]

If peoples weakness weren't exposed, we'd be happy.

[Krandor]

And hey guess what, people's weaknesses were exposed. Aoki can't do standup and Henderson sucks off his back. The King Mo/Mousasi bored me to fucking tears (not that the other fights were any better, but I have never paid a shred of attention to either fighter so I had no interest) so I can't really say anything about that fight, wasn't really watching.

Point being, if you're trying to say that the card would have been more interesting if people's weaknesses had been exposed, well, they were, and it happened to be weaknesses that led to a boring ass night.

So yeah...finally got a chance to watch this. Dana White must be dehydrated by now by with the jerk-off marathon this gave him.

As if his last card was any better.

As if his last card was any better.

I'm not so sure that's the point.

[Xno Kappa]

As if his last card was any better.

Everyone's focused on that silly brawl along with the retarded commentary associated with it while Silva's Dancing With The Stars audition doesn't seem that big of a deal now. Not to mention SF's top three fights were pathetic. Dana probably wins the most out of this distraction besides the new WWE fanbase SF will pull.

[Krandor]

There were still elements of UFC 112 that were entertaining, even if the last 3 fights kind of dragged ass. That far outclasses the best part of Strikeforce being that brawl.

[archibaldcrane]

I'm just sad they didn't show the (first) Mayhem fight.

[Ghostsix.Midgard]

Can't fucking stand Gus, watching strikeforce makes me wish I could mute the announcers.. Goldy is not much better but ffs.

[dudeguy]

Even if Gus Johnson is a complete douche he is >>>>>>>>>> Goldberg

[Rhyis.]

I'd say they're both equally useless.

[Blarg]

If goldy fought gus he would probably throw some 4 2's and then a 3 4 and it would be ALL OVER with a teep to the face

[Ghostsix.Midgard]

Rogan cancels out goldberg for me

the strikeforce panel just fucking grates on my ears.

[dudeguy]

It is a hard call I must admit. Johnson did say the Petruzelli-Kimbo was the greatest MMA upset of all time, while Goldberg says that every main event in the UFC is one that we have all been waiting years for.

Rogan is far better than Mauro 'Mata Leo' Ranallo on primetime TV, so I understand how that could make up for Goldy's shortcomings.

[quannum]

why dont ppl like rogan as announcer? he's knowledgeable and doesnt attention whore.

[Blarg]

I don't see people saying anything bad about rogan here
