Wow, can you think of a more crazier couple of nutjobs in the octagon? Holy shit, what a fight. I expected for Dan to do better, he completely didnt utilize no game plan what so ever, other than looking for some big power punches. Finally a great fight out of this episode, looks like Ben will most likely end up in the finals. Hes got a great arsenal and heart. Horable, horable decision..looks like Hughes is taking this bad too.

Those two fighters were jokes. I don't know what you or Dana is seeing in that fight. It was sloppy and disgusting. Dan couldn't throw a punch worth a horse's shit. Granted he got lucky once, yet he still couldn't do anything. He got one good shot in the face and the rest of the punches were thrown to the body, which all of them just completely missed. The hell is he thinking? That's right, he wasn't thinking. WHAT A NOOB.

The fight was bloody, and they both got hurt. They each showed a lot of balls cause it was brutal at times.

That being said, it was a pretty poor technical fight. It was obvious that Dan not only doesn't stick to the plan well, but he is so unsure of his ground game that he will do anything to avoid anything that even looks close to wrestling.

I agree with Slug, the fight was not a "good" fight, but it was entertaining.

On a side note, that decision was a joke, no way Ben won the first round.

I'm interested to see what else Ben has in him though, I don't think we really got to see much of what he can do.

It was pretty obvious that Dan won the first round, but the second round could have been considered a 10-8 round for Ben, so I'm not going to argue about him getting the win after two rounds.

Like Braveheart said, those were two crazy guys...

But Barrera's wife seemed to have more craziness than the two of them together.

It was a slugfest, both guys went to work. Thats whats entertaining, thats whats exciting. It's not necessarily always technical. Think Griffin v. Bonnar 1st fight. It lauched the UFC into a monster it is today.

The fight was sloppy for the first round or the half of the first round. They both had no composure in what they were doing. But it seemed ben caught on real quick after hitting the floor when he ate dans punch. But dan seemed totally inexperianced in everything he did. Sloppy throws, Alot of chances were missed to hit ben good and the jogging thing just wasted more of his energy. Not a whole lot of ground game and seemed like they both had NONE what so ever. But it kinda seemed like ben was ready to submit dan but dan didnt know what to do without getting kicked badly.
