Why shouldn't he retire? He obviously doesn't want to fight.
Goldberg just said "He (Mir) didn't disappoint" no asshole he did indeed disappoint they both disappointed
1) he did fine the first round
2) up until this week it was questionable whether or not he was 100% (at least that's what the rumor mill said)
3) everybody has a bad fight or 2, look at BJ Penn's last 2 fights
4) he's Mirko fucking Cro Cop, he isn't allowed to retire until he wins the UFC heavyweight title and throws a bitching party with me and all his other fans
Dana better be pissed, that main event sucked balls. When your own announcers say "At least it's over in 2 minutes" you have a problem. Even with the knockout that doesn't change the fact that the fighters had to be broken up what 3? 4 times?

ARE THEY FUCKING TALKING TO EACH OTHER IN THE CLINCH???
Yeah. I saw that too. I think Mirko laughed about something at one point.
Disgraceful night of fights that had the potential to be so much better. Felt like Strikeforce Nashville without the awesome brawl at the end and the free price tag.

the theory i'm sticking with is that Cro Cop realized that if he won, he'd get retired the hard way via way of Brock Lesnar dropping the hammer down on him and was stunned kickless at the mere thought, and when he and Mir were talking in the clinch, he was saying "hey good luck getting your ass kicked by Brock again thank Jesus i don't have to deal wit dat" and then Mir laughed and was like "yea i got it comin"
most of the ppv was pretty lame, for sure- but looking at the whole night, there were several good fights, including the two nasty guillotines. and i liked the dunham sherk fight a lot.

Look I understand that Cro Cop gets paid a lot of fucking money to fight. He should. However I wish there was a way the could give him like an ANTI fight of the night bonus and take some of his paycheck. It infurates me when two fighters just sit there and don't do shit for 3 rounds.
Mir isn't any better he pushed Cro Cop against the cage for 3 rounds and yet didn't do a god damn thing except one lucky knee.

That fight sucked
That card sucked
And those judges sucked.
despite the fact that the terrible, obviously rigged Sherk decision win may have inadvertently led to my advancing in PAFC, i couldn't possibly agree with that last part more

There were two good fights, Sherk/Dunham and Lytle/Serra
There were 4 awful fights Mir/Cro Cop, Nogera/Bader, Guillard/Stephens, Beltran/Mitrione
And the rest were ok.
The big problem? You notice that the main and co main events were shitty? That's a problem

I just want to point out that I called that Sherk/Dunham would be a great fight.

I thought DREAM 16 was a little on the down side, but then I saw this. DREAM 16 definitely beat this event ten fold.
Mayhem's entrance by itself was better than this UFC card.
I understand the UFC puts on lots and lots of events, but the fans are going to see this card (horrible) and then a free card headlined by fucking Bisping. The UFC better hope that UFC 121 is amazing.

Yes and he has to fight fucking BISPING, in England. Which means I will probably have to hear people cheering for Bisping. Do. Not. Want.

Goddamn do not scare me like that
I had Dunham by UD, so assuming the judges are vaguely sane and give it to him on a SD, that's a 14 point swing between us.
Either way, you had more fights correct, but the fights I got right I mostly nailed. (Thank you reliable decision machines)

I fully expect Korean Zombie to just lie down and play dead in his match and then maybe Jon Jones can just try to but scoot his way to victory and all of my favorite fighters can completely disappoint me

I'll never understand the Bisping hate.

CroCop didn't even look like he was trying and Frank looked bored.
Worst main event in a long time.

I'm just annoyed at CroCop.
What the hell?
1) he did fine the first round
2) up until this week it was questionable whether or not he was 100% (at least that's what the rumor mill said)
3) everybody has a bad fight or 2, look at BJ Penn's last 2 fights
