You're probably right about Okami, but I think that's bullshit. If they only kept guys that would fight for/win the title, there would only be about 20 guys in the UFC. Okami constantly proved he was just a step below the very elite of the division, that's why cutting him makes no sense to me. IMO, he made MW more interesting.
For tonight I've got:
JDS
DC
Melendez
And don't much care about the other main card fights.
Streaming prelims were awesome, FS1 prelims are going to be good too.

Top to bottom, that was one of the best, if not the best, fight card I've ever seen. Hate seeing JDS get battered like that again, but Cain is a beast and he came in with the perfect plan to win, good for him.
Gil and Diego...fucking epic fight. I've never much liked Diego, but that dude has a heart that won't allow him to quit, and I respect him for being a warrior. That said, listening to his post-fight interview with Rogan, he's sounding a bit punch drunk...I hope for his sake it was swollen lips or something, he's too young for that kind of brain damage.

Melendez/Sanchez was fucking epic! I wasn't a huge Diego fan either, but I am thoroughly impressed with his will. Damn good card, all & all.

I thought it was the best UFC card top to bottom as well.
Here are the fights I would would like to see next from the winners at UFC 166:
Cain vs Werdum
Cormier vs Gustavfson at LHW for the next title shot after Glover/Jones
Melendez vs TJ Grant for the next title shot at Lightweight division.
and I would like to see Lombard vs thagio alves or matt brown

I can get behind those matchups. I think the biggest test for DC will be a guy like Gus who is tall, rangy and very mobile. I actually think Gus takes a UD over DC if they fight.
I definitely want to see Grant in there with a top guy, his run at LW has been impressive as hell and I've become a big fan. So many exciting possibilities at LW...I love it when belts change hands.

Kinda off subject, and I don't mean to go all Jerry Seinfeld..but what's the deal with BKB...first off they wear sparing gloves not even bare knuckles or atleast just wraps...and the guys pretty much box, only the fight usually gets stopped early and arnt even that interesting, more interesting that boxing, but I still don't see BkB goin very far, unless they actually go bare knuckle...

I was watching an old ufc (66) and in the Arlovski/Cruz fight, Arlovski ended the fight by head-strikes from the top... But he was holding the fence with his left hand, and landing the strikes with his right. Is it legal to grab the fence to generate more power in your punches? I think Herb Dean was paying attention to the right hand, and didn't notice, honestly. I think a good deal of power is gained by doing this. An interesting thought.

It was a really close fight.......Chandler definitely had the take downs but he really didn't do much damage to Eddie.Eddie kept countering with that no look right cross and catching him over and over,imo it was Eddies' striking that got him the W.........either way it was a great fight.
