Funny how these things work, Werdum lays an ass whoopin' on Nelson and is out longer than the guy he beat the hell out of.

That was the main thing I noticed. One of my training partners was fighting once and took the nastiest nut shot I've ever seen. He actually passed out with the pain.
The next day his junk was bruised and swollen, didn't see it myself but the description was "balls like black and blue oranges". Had to get them drained.
Figueroa is a trooper for going on after two of them. Lad.

what a shocker...Diaz not suspended from pepper punches/kick.
He did eat a few nasty combos though, not too many.

This and the Edwin suspension are ironic, in a twisted sense. |
