god what a night. i love nicky so much glad to see aoki get a win too, and gil looked unstoppable. I thought the diaz fight was an early stoppage but after the fight daley had serious serious trouble getting off the canvas and onto the stool, was p funny. I think if it went to the second round nick would have pitter pattered him to death. Great back and forth in that fight

Anyone else lol at this?

Daley defies the laws of physics.

Seriously. How do you get hurt by his punches? Like what the hell. He's got about 2 lbs of muscle, and the rest is bone.

b/c punching power != muscle mass

[Alvinho]

If you take a look at his left leg (black guy's), he was going to get hurt pretty bad if he didn't turn/fall.

[quannum]

off balance by the throw + momentum + his ankle didn't want to twist = that weird ass fall

Nick used the Puff of Weed Smoke technique. How you KO yourself by falling face first? I was also hoping they would fight afterwards too.

In the hospital, Riggs style.

lol@ "Bro, how'd you get knocked out, he has no muscle" to "Bro, I know muscle =/= punching power."

Sounds like u mad and are the typical Affliction wearing d-bag who trains serious UFC.

All this fat no muscle and punching power talk reminded me of that Todd Duffee vs. Mike Russow fight LOL

Bobby Lashley clearly has the biggest knockout power amongst everyone who trains UFC.

[Rhyis.]

Nah, that'd be Pudzianowski.

As it turns out, I *do* train serious UFC, and have for almost five years now. While I can't say I own any affliction, I am at the moment wearing my Shane Carwin warrior shirt, and I have a thermal tapout. That must count, right?

[Chips]

I'm going to go ahead and retract my earlier statement, and say that muscle is indeed a factor in punching power. Generally speaking of course, but if someone is skinny as fuck like Diaz, and you compare him to someone like Daley, the bigger, more muscular guy usually has more power. Sure, muscle =! power, but it absolutely makes a difference.

[Dimmauk]

As far as Punching power goes...Technique > Muscle imo.

[Dimmauk]

Nah, that'd be Pudzianowski.

What about Overeem?
