Lastnights UFC fight Night Live **spoiler**
Im a little pissed i lost 2k on Martin but, give credit where its due.It was a good fight from them both, surprised me tho he knocked out Martin.
Possibly Diaz just made me a fan of his after lastnight, he stayed calm even from the bottom and kept trying for submissions but, that one time Nate had him against the cage then he stepped back and was rocking him, he should of just kept swinging, Nates got jiu jitsuuuuuuuuuuuu, rampage who? haha

when can we start giving Florian credit? I am more and more impressed with him on every fight. He lost UD to Sherk but he is also a freak at 155lb (no steroid jokes).
Would not mind seeing K-Flo and Penn if Sherk gets the boot. Maybe Huerta/Florian could be interesting also.
No matter what he was impressive against a tough competitor in Thomas (with standing the knee pain and taking shots for well over a minute is also amazing).

I thought Ken-flo was losing until Din injured his knee which was so obvious b/c he was holding his knee while Kenny was repeatedly beating on his head.....
So I really dont see what was so impressive about him last night.....
Go ahead and put him against Penn and let BJ redefine finishing people for him b/c Kenny would get finished IMO.....

Ken-flo has been looking really good lately. If he fought BJ I would still have to put money on BJ though.

IF you watch the fight. Kenny was more active the agressor and landing more shots. Kenny was winning the fight by a slight margin.

That's how I saw it. I am not for or against Kenny, or Din. It just appeared to me that Kenny was slightly more effective even before Din hurt his knee. I really hate it for Thomas because it was shaping up as an interesting fight. Anyone could have won it prior to the injury. I hope Thomas heals quickly and completely.

I think it was about even up until Din blew his knee out. I dont really give Kenny much credit. I mean Din was obviously just toughing it out. Kenny is a good fighter, no doubt. Put him against BJ though. I think BJ would wear him out in every aspect of the fight.

If any fight deserves a rematch, it's Thomas/Florian.
I think things could have gone quite a bit differently if Din didn't mess up his knee. I'd rather a rematch to see if Florian or Thomas moves on to fight BJ Penn or Joe Stevenson. But I doubt a rematch would ever happen. Too bad, because I still see this fight as unfinished.
