NEW CHAMP - GSP
UFC 65BAD INTENTIONS1.Jake O'Brien vs. Josh Schockman-Jake takes this fight by a judges decision after three rounds of not much. This was an ok fight O'Brien controlled the whole fight basically taking Josh down every time they were stood up. Over all this was a decent start to the event.2.JAMES IRVIN vs. HECTOR RAMIREZ-Irvin takes this fight in the second round with a beautiful straight right hand that catches Ramirez after he throws a lazy left hook. The entire fight was great; this was an excellent addition to the card.3.SHERMAN PENDERGARST vs. ANTONI HARDONK-this was a great fight, back and forth while the fight lasted, Antoni takes this fight after a nice combo with a left, right punch combo followed immediately by a vicious leg kick that takes out Sherman. This was a very entertaining fight, nice bout.4.NICK DIAZ vs. GLEISON TIBAU-the first round of this fight was amazing, a great technical battle on the ground. Both fighters were giving it all they had, but by the end Tibau was gassing and looking pretty bad. In the second round Tibau was far too gone and gassed out, basically Diaz just out lasted him and got the win when the ref stopped the fight.5.JOE STEVENSON vs. D. MISHIMA-this one ends in the first round when Mishma taps out after a deep guillotine choke, it would take two of these though to get him to tap out. This was a good but quick fight, nice edition to the show.6.FRAMK MIR vs. BRANDON VERA-extremely surprising how quick this match was, I did not expect this fight to be over at just over one minute. After a well placed knee from Vera Mir goes down and is dominated on the ground, great win for Vera.7.ALESSIO SAKARA vs. DREW McFEDRIES-very exciting fight between these two warriors, this was a beautiful back and forth battle standing up. It looked as if Drew was winning the stand up but soon Sakara was taking over the lead. The round went back and forth between the two until Sakara sir came to Drew towards the end of the round when the ref stopped it. Excellent fight, possibly the best on the card.8.[HEAVYWIEGHT CHAMPIONSHIP] TIM SYLVIA vs. JEFF MONSON-this was a pretty good fight between these two gladiators of the octagon. This fight would end up going the distance and have a sorry crowd in my opinion. After a really good fight that showcased both fighters really well, the crowd started booing Sylvia just because he didn't knockout Jeff. They should have shown the proper respect to both fighters and applauded these two for giving up a great fight. Over all Tim wins by decision.9.[WELTERWIEGHT CHAMPIONSHIP] MATT HUGHES vs. GEORGE ST. PIERRE-my favorite fight of the evening saw GSP defeat Matt Hughes with a some what dominate performance. I really have never liked Hughes to much but this fight changed that. His sportsmanship after his loss changed my mind about the man as I thought he would cry about the loss. But he didn't and one of my all time favorites GSP became the champ with an excellent performance with a great TKO victory over a great defending champ in Hughes
