OSP needs a new camp.

OSP was winging punches like he had no training. Very sloppy standup. And most Bader fights are boring unless he's getting his *** kicked. Disappointing way to end the night, but the fights leading up to it were on point.

Probably time for Maynard to hang it up. Had a feeling Pearson was going to hurt him.

I thought Gray should retire after his last knockout loss, now with this one, I mean, I think I have seen all I need to see from him.

I agree with Pappy, I was disappointed in OSPs striking more than anything else. He was just wildly swinging with little to no precision.

I wasn't quite sure what to make of the Sara McMann fight. All I could think after that fight was "neither of these chicks will ever beat Ronda." Sara has a long way to go, IMO.

I doubt Maynard wants to go out with a loss, he'll probably step in to the Octagon one last time.

Bader should be top 5 IMO. I have no idea why Rashad Evans is still #3. Dude hasn't fought in almost a year.. I think when he comes back he'll immediately be back into the title race, but the UFC should take him out of the rankings until he comes back.

Top 5? His biggest win is over Rampage who fought him with one knee or LiL Nog four years ago. He's lost every fight he's had with a top 5 opponent (Glover/Machida/Jones). The only argument you could make for top 5 is that the division isnt deep right now.

Regarding Rashad, he blew out his knee but is due to fight in early 2015. He last fought 8 months ago. They arent dropping him from the rankings.

There is 0 chance he is ahead of Jones, Glover, Rashad, Gustaffson, Cormier, Rumble and probably Phil Davis too. Bader has improved but he's still a "gatekeeper" so to speak. He'll beat most guys lower than him but struggle with the ones ahead of him.
