We need more fights like Rashad vs Nog on PPV. Those are the kind of barnburners worth paying for.

And the Fitch fight..and the first 2 rounds of the overeem fight weren't anything to write home about either, although it wasn't that bad.
What a wonderful argument. Yes less men the size of flies and more YOUNG regular size men that are not washed up like shad and nog.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but I thought the flyweights had the best fight of the night on an evening of great fights.
I'd watch Ian McCall fight himself. I love that guy.

Young men, huh?
And how did he do with that? I suppose you thought he actually had a chance?

Lol "washed up". You clearly have no idea about what you speak of. Why don't you take your Tapout paraphernalia and go to your local redneck bar to see big sweaty men slugging it out.
I swear fans like you are one reason why the MMA community is looked down upon by boxing aficionados who have appreciated the lighter weights since the early 1900s.

He lasted five rounds unlike the rest of Jones' opponents.

Nearly every "greatest fight of the..." in boxing or mma is a decision.
So says the little fella trying to sound like some sort of MMA savant.
Seriously, I respect these little people for getting into MMA but would any normal size man ever feel threatened by someone as small as a middle schooler? I just cant get interested in fights between dudes who are smaller than the woman ref.

lol, dude is just mad his favorite fighter Overeem gassed in the biggest fight of his career and got KO'd and the HW division is now in shambles. JDS/Cain 3 anyone?
The only flyweight fight that should ever be on the main card is the title fights in my opinion. I dont mind them being in the UFC but please dont shove them down our throat on the main card. Vast majority of them go to a decision with not much power to be had. I must admit, I did enjoy the Mighty Mouse/Dodson fight the other night though, but that is the only flyweight fight I have found entertaining.

I'm not a fan of flyweights at all. But, that fight was alright and a heck of a lot better than the Rashad/Nog bout. If you want to talk about a fight sucking the life out of a crowd, that's the one you should be looking at.
I follow boxing very closely and have long before MMA came along. Rashad is washed up.. you are a total fool if you think otherwise. His performances speak for themselves. Guess you can go on believing the UFC hype train if you want but I will believe in what I see and what I see is a washed up fighter that is a permanent gate keeper until his retirement.
