Luke Rockhold (White) defeats Ronaldo Souza (Brazilian) UD New 185lbs Champion
Daniel Cormier (Black) defeats Antonio Silva (Brazilian) ko round 1
Josh Barnett (White) defeats Sergie Kharitonov (White) sub armbar round 1

Basically Americans dominated the Brazilians, and Wrestlers dominated BJJ stylist.
Pat Healy looked great defeating Maximo Blanco, who is also kind of Brazilian because while he was born in Venezuela he trains in Brazil. I'm kind of glad King Mo won because I find a lot of BJJ guys like Roger Gracie are not great athletes, that is the big difference between Wrestling and BJJ. Luke Rockhold impressed the hell out of me, Souza is a great fighter. Rockhold IMO lost the first two rounds, He however started taking over the last three rounds, He is and amazing striker. Branett as expected defeated Sergie K by using his wrestling. Barnett is going to have a tough time with Cormier who is an Olympic wrestler.

Let's hope the "Baby Face Assasin" can pull off a sub or KO...as Cormier's wrestling is better.

Big win for Rockhold. Didn't see that coming but the kid can really fight.

Barnett is a warrior and should be able to keep Cormier at bay with that jab. If it hits the ground, Barnett should be able to work his catch submissions.

Either way, I see Barnett winning the belt!

As for Lawal, he is loudmouthed racist.Gracie is a novice who has great BJJ and limited standup and almost no wrasslin.

Was really impressed by Danny in the Bigfoot fight.

Daniel vs. Barnett will be an awesome fight!
