Barboza for KO of the night.
mma.ly - January 14, 2012
Don't count Aldo out
But yeah Barboza gets KO of the night haha
GotBJJ - January 14, 2012
hmm
LeDuc - January 15, 2012
I have a feeling they’ll give it to both of them.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
Same
truck - January 15, 2012 via mobile
Agreed
I have a suspicion Vitor might get SOTN – Dana’s shown a tendency to look after his friends before. Fight of the Night… probably Edson-Etim I guess.
VenusBlue - January 15, 2012
hmm
LeDuc - January 15, 2012
Palhares vs everybody.
dribblebib - January 15, 2012
TAP
Huggy Bear - January 15, 2012
FOTN
is tough to pick
NEW-HAMPSHIRE - January 15, 2012
Sweetness can't wait for some quotables from Dana on Mario.
Chris Hall - January 15, 2012
does anyone know if they are going to replay the FX prelims?
Sean in Vancouver - January 15, 2012
KO of the night: Aldo and Barboza
Submision of the night: Palhares
Fight of the night: ???
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Any body think Silva gets a backroom bonus after the Yamasaki debacle?
Chris Hall - January 15, 2012
I really hope so, it must be disappointing
purplehazelett - January 15, 2012
Yeah he'll get his win bonus (IMO)
and Dana will probally try to talk him into getting it overturned
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Probably what he would have gotten for a win
And no commission means the UFC is free to overturn that.
halitosis - January 15, 2012 via mobile
i guarantee that dana will give him both his show money and his win bonus, he already tweeted that he thought it was BS
darkotto23 - January 15, 2012
I pretty much missed the entire show
working late in a very foul mood. I saw a few minutes of FX plus Luke Thomas fighting on Facebook (I assume everyone made that correlation?).
I finally got home and went live and was confused as fuck because I tuned into an episode of “Where’s Aldo?” in the crowd.
In addition to stepping on my dick on my predictions, it looks like I picked a weird show to miss from the PBP. Silva DQ’d? Spinning wheel kick KO? Early stand ups in Belfort x AJ?
Dallas Winston - January 15, 2012
Wheres Aldo....Fucking Brilliant!
purplehazelett - January 15, 2012
Please, Dana, cut Rumble. He deserves it.
purplehazelett - January 15, 2012
Maybe they give FOTN to Barboza/Etim
So they can give KOTN to Aldo. Or locker room bonuses. I guarantee Vigor and Erick Silva get locker room bonuses as well.
halitosis - January 15, 2012 via mobile
There is NO CHANCE that Aldo gets KOTN
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Well he should get moment of the night
Something man. That was magical.
halitosis - January 15, 2012 via mobile
How about co-KOTN?
That would be a good compromise.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
It was...
Both knockouts where magical
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Aldo's was moreso to me
Running into the crowd, I was about to do what the people would do with a 3-D bud light commercial reaching for Aldo into my tv.
I still have chills. That was awesome.
halitosis - January 15, 2012 via mobile
Vitor should for beating the cake man
purplehazelett - January 15, 2012
lol the cake man..
UncleMax - January 15, 2012
Dammit phone
*Vitor
halitosis - January 15, 2012 via mobile
Vigor Belfont
normski - January 15, 2012
???
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
He's looking straight through Rumble Johnson.
normski - January 15, 2012
I love how it says "Victor" up top, too
Victor Belafonte
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
I guess Aldo and Edson could get co-KOTN bonuses
I would be OK with that. I’ll be pretty pissed if Aldo wins the bonus by himself, though.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
How about that crowd???
Hahaha looked like a college basketball/football game
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
And instead of the crowd rushing the field...
…the athlete rushed the crowd!
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
lol
When he saw them rushing he said “Fuck it I’m goin in”
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
In Brazil, you rush crowd!
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
haha
I think I’ll pass
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
dana seems like he's in such a good mood, that i wouldn't put it past him to hand out 2 KOTN bonuses to Aldo and Edson
as far as FOTN goes, hmmmm maybe Arantes vs Carvalho, althou Rumble vs Vitor was probably the most exciting fight
darkotto23 - January 15, 2012
Stump for SOTN, but make no mistake, that matchup was clownshoes.
Massenzio should have been preliminary on a Fuel card, not main card on a PPV.
BVandDietPepsi - January 15, 2012
In memory of Tebow:

Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Thats fucking awesome
I didnt know they allowed AFI in West Virginia!
;)
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
I brought all of Jersey with me out here.
Funny thing is, half the state is from Jersey.
I love old AFI, man. I broke my nose at one of their old ass shows (right when Art of Drowning came out in 2000). Some girl headbutted me. That was the first time I met her. We then dated/hooked up for a few months.
AFI was good to me.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
My fave AFI album is Black Sails In The Sunset
I still like their new music, especially when i has a sad
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
Black Sails is definitely their best stuff. I listened to the album after Drowning once and gave up on them.
I was in an AFI cover band in HS, even. We did all their old stuff and had a blast.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
damn, Funch must feel terrible, he is the only brazilian that lost to a foreigner
darkotto23 - January 15, 2012
He pulled a Luiz Cane.
MicahtheCynic - January 15, 2012
So did Silva, and, er, Prater
normski - January 15, 2012
Ignore. I'm going to bed.
normski - January 15, 2012
lol
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
Yamasaki lost in that match, too.
Everyone lost.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Biggest Loser
Joe Rogan hands down. What an ass
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
The Harpoons.
Man Them.
MicahtheCynic - January 15, 2012
nom nom nom
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
yeah Rogan really came across as an asshole there. So unprofessional
jammin.. - January 15, 2012
He basicaly admited he fucked up
“Uhh… I had to decide right there uhhh”
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Did Rumble headbutt Vitor?
dribblebib - January 15, 2012
not that i know of
darkotto23 - January 15, 2012
So this shit is starting at 1am?
God do I hate these cards starting at 10.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
nearly 7am here. whiner! :)
UncleMax - January 15, 2012 via Android app
its a little sad that even thou both UFC 134 and UFC 142 have been amazing cards they probably wont combine for more than 500,000 PPV buys
darkotto23 - January 15, 2012
Also, KOTY. no one else should even try
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
Beautiful.
KatGirl - January 15, 2012
Straight up bad ass how he just walks away, too
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Like a baws.
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
BOSS
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
I hope Rick Ross suffers some horrible fate
halitosis - January 15, 2012 via mobile
He's already catching seizures...
How does a former corrections officer become a rap star? That’s not gangsta.
Rap sucks these days… The top stars are a former corrections officer, a skateboarding midget and a canadian actor whose half Jewish… Vanilla Ice & Hammer sound more gangsta then these fruit loops.
RECE ROCK - January 15, 2012 via mobile
in all fairness
vanilla ice was more gangsta than most rappers ever. he was getting in fights and trouble constantly. Not claiming he killed people when he didnt have so much as a speeding ticket.
JaeeJaee - January 15, 2012
rap is like pro wrestling.....
for white kids in the midwest
Skoobs - January 15, 2012
who is the skateboarding midget?
In all honesty, I know that Drake is the canadian half jewish actor who became a rapper, but is Lil Wayne the midget?
Andy Anderson - January 15, 2012
There is some promise for the future
Hopsin, Childish Gambino among others
halitosis - January 15, 2012
I can't help it.
MicahtheCynic - January 15, 2012
WTF his name is Earl Montsomething or other?
Sounds like a redneck french fruitbasket.
RolloTomasi - January 15, 2012
all you have to do is scroll up to type it right you lazy ass
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
Earl Montechoolooloo, no....wait, I got it Montclarara, no....hold on....Mont-tt-tt-t...............
Fuck it………………MDH
RolloTomasi - January 15, 2012
lol thats fine too
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
Now you know my pain
Tedd Welch - January 15, 2012
Todd?
RolloTomasi - January 15, 2012
Has the post fight conference started yet? I’m not getting anything
savik - January 15, 2012
They say it starts at 1 am
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
nevermind
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
What are they doing in the mean time?
dribblebib - January 15, 2012
I want to own an anteater
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
and take it to parties.
dribblebib - January 15, 2012
That thing could party on its own
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Its so comical, it could be my cats new buddy!
Kefka - January 15, 2012
It’s on now.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
The translator is in the background
Who is fucking up?
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
I don’t think anyone is. I think she’s repeating everything for everyone.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
Sounds like they have her on quiet with the fighters on loud, though
Should be the opposite way, right?
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Yeah, it’s weird.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
Yeah, someone fucked up somewhere, hah
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Fun fact:
Over 80% of women do not own a bra that fits properly.
Isn’t it time you stopped your daily struggle with an uncomfortable bra?
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Who ARE these crazy women?
KatGirl - January 15, 2012
I DONT KNOW
But this infomercial is on FOX right now. An hour of women bitching about bras! AHHHH!!!
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Crazy.
KatGirl - January 15, 2012
It's about the Genie Bra
I think it’s just a sports bra that they are selling for exorbitant prices.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Hahaha, Dana has no idea where Paul Harris is
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Damn
why am I watching this I know 0 portuguese
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Have they announced the bonuses yet?
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
I don't think so.
But, I did miss the very beginning.
KatGirl - January 15, 2012
There’s nothing on twitter about them either, so I doubt it’s come up. But it’s usually the first thing Dana says.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
The Twitter comments of people complaining are pretty funny.
KatGirl - January 15, 2012
Sounds like Vitor is talking about spicy leopards
Something something spicy leopards something something Silva something something Fitch
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Obviously it made everyone happy
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Vitor obviously just said something really awesome.
KatGirl - January 15, 2012
Spicy leopards, Silva, and Brazil is what I got out of it.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Vitor
is worth more than his contract for the way he boosts the UFC in Brazil. Dude will get a PR position when he’s done fighting.
dribblebib - January 15, 2012
he was the color comentator at UFC 134 for the portugese broadcast, so that might be his job when he retires
darkotto23 - January 15, 2012
Great and now I can't evne hear the English
wut tha fuk
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Yeah, they’re completely fucking this think up. People who speak english can’t make any sense of it.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
yeah. wtf portguese speaking translator. wtf woman??!!!
daftshadow - January 15, 2012
A good 90% of the UFC fanbase is getting boned
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
lucky us!
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
Sweet, I’m on a pretty bad dry spell.
Tim Bernier - January 15, 2012
I now know how Brazil fills while watching an American press confrence
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Damn
*feels
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Bonuses per the UFC's twitter
FOTN: Barboza vs Etim
KOTN: Barboza
SOTN: Paul Harris
darkotto23 - January 15, 2012
WOOOOOOO!!!!! Barboza Cleans HOUSE!!!
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012

Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
I think they should've just gave to KOTN
Aldo deserved something that KO was nasty
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Damn I can't spell tonight
*two
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
You can't NOT give the KO of the year KOTN, dude
They should have just had co-KOTN winners.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Oh, nevermind. I see what you meant.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Yeah I went full retard for a second
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Someone just said that Dana said that AJ is cut
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Good.
MicahtheCynic - January 15, 2012
Keep in mind I have no idea if that's true
But someone translated saying he was cut.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH
good
karmic justice for that weak stuff
Cunny - January 15, 2012
as well he should be
Earl Montclair - January 15, 2012
Damn...
he deserved it realy but Belator will pick him up for a super fight with Lombard (he most likely wont make weight either)
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
fuck it sonnnn, i'm sleep
they’ll have an english link up tomorrow i expect
Cunny - January 15, 2012
isn’t there a feed without that annoying chick talking over everyone in Portuguese
williambonney - January 15, 2012
Nope.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
OK well I’m done with this then no point in a press conf. I can’t understand anyway, I was just hoping to hear about johnson being fired but I can wait until morning for that
williambonney - January 15, 2012
Someone who is translating on the Youtube stream said that Dana said he was cut.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Ching chang chong cant understand you
Art_Wanderlei - January 15, 2012
Apparently someone asked Vitor about his sister
Which is why he was crying. She’s been missing for years now.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
What the fuck
what for
unnecessary question
Cunny - January 15, 2012
We all need this
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
A heference for the hest of us
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Aldo going into he crowd was the greatest and craziest thing i've seen a fighter do in celebration...how can you hate that guy?
Snatchl - January 15, 2012
I wish I knew what Paul Harris was saying
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
*I wish I knew what Anyone was saying
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
hahaha
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
“So, Mr. Palhares, who’s next for you in the UFC?”
“When I fight, I like to go for the heel hook.”
Tedd Welch - January 15, 2012
By the way, ya'll should click on the stream and watch it FROM Youtube so yo ucan see the comments stream by it
My God is there a bunch of racist, ignorant shit being spewed.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
le sigh
dribblebib - January 15, 2012
Thats youtube for you...
Nevermind thats the world for you
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Someone translating just said Belfort just said he'd of fought AJ even if he were over 205 this morning
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
And Belfort wants the winner of Bisping v. Maia
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Makes since
winner gets a title shot
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Dana’s saying that he didn’t like Aldo jumping and running into the crowd, but it was a pretty cool thing to see.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
Dana just asked about Diego Brandho fighting Aldo
Dana said LOL NO.
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
I honestly do not see anyone beating Aldo at 145
Korean Zombie would be a great fight but Aldo would take it
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
aldo vs cris cyborg 2012!
daftshadow - January 15, 2012
Sterioids....
not a fair fight anymore…. See what I mean
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Are you implying that Aldo is juiced?
halitosis - January 15, 2012 via mobile
i inferred that unjuiced cyborg would get manhandled
Cunny - January 15, 2012
did he really say "LOL"?
The Lethal Haze - January 15, 2012
Edson talking about his fight discipline
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Says not ready for title shot now, but wants the belt one day
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
Why am I still watching this?
Art_Wanderlei - January 15, 2012
I'm asking myself the same question....
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
I feel like once I leave they’ll fix the problem
Art_Wanderlei - January 15, 2012
Nope
Its over… I’ve learned nothing
rscott94 - January 15, 2012
Next Brazil fight in Sao Paulo!
Jonathan. - January 15, 2012
It’s over now. Guess we’ll have to wait till he talks to the media afterwards.
Tim Burke - January 15, 2012
Girls gone wild on HDNet...
In english
Snatchl - January 15, 2012
Like it matters
boobs are universal.
Tim Bernier - January 15, 2012
it's likely that the press conference feed is intended only for a brazillian audience.
And that there is no “problem”
UncleMax - January 15, 2012
WTH
can’t see the press conference
AfroSamurai - January 15, 2012
where the hell is the post fight press conference?
