James Thompson is such a brainless goon. He has literally zero technique; he just runs straight at his opponents and swings wildly for 2 minutes until he's completely gassed and useless.
I can't believe people still pay him to fight. He makes Kimbo Slice look like a disciplined tactician.

I still can't figure out if Aoki is a total fraud or a legitimate world beater. It is truly a work of art to watch him completely own/destroy all the cans he's fought in his career.
However, he's also lost to the only 2 legitimate opponents in his career (Melendez and Alvarez). Maybe there is something to the fact the UFC has not tried very hard to get him.

Yeah Aoki has somehow managed to keep crushing cans after all the other can crushers were forced to stop for one reason or another.
Beating the soul out of Sakuraba isn't anything to brag about. He's like 247 in fight years.

I though the card was pretty boring. Gabi looked awful in her debut. Her striking reminds of two 8 years having a slap contest. i know she has really good jitz and all but I think she would get destroyed in the UFC. By the way what was the weight difference between her opponent and Gabi. It had to be like 20-25 pound difference and the smaller girl still rocked Gabi good in the beginning of the fight.
