Where did this come from? His Striking is fine IDK why you think he is subpar. His GnP is solid he doesn't kill people but he doesn't have to because he is a very strong wrestler.
Also His guillotine is great wrestlers are strong so they have an advantage in locking in guillotines look at a guy like Marcus Hicks.

You guys should watch more of CB's fights and not judge him on his 1 TUF fight

I think he is pretty damn good for a guy with zero fights under his belt. I actually think he could beat Jesse because unlike Gerald, Jesse' TDs are slow as hell. Dante just has no TDD.
I think CB is a bit overrated because him and everyone else on the show has set this huge expectation for him and with all that pressure, he's (probably) not performing to his peak level. I think he even admits that he did not perform his best in his blog.
But hey, you're probably a bit biased about him (like I am a bit biased about Amir).

Could someone explain the episode where Forrest lost his mind? Dana saying Forrest wants to fight right now. WTH happened? I was away training with the Military, thanks!

Rated I honestly just don't think Amir's ground game is at all solid. His stand up is ok but he's not world class. I see him in the WEC for awhile.
C.B. didn't look great in his first fight but watch his fights the guy is a legit UFC MW. Not a title winner but a guy who is around where Yushin Okami is.

Isn't that a total contradiction? Seeing as how Okami should be next in line for a title shot.
I will reserve judgement on CB till I see him fight someone like Sakara, Leben or Bisping before saying he is good to great or he sucks monkey balls.

Well I personally don't see Okami as a guy who can win the title.
I think C.B. will probably earn a title shot or two but I don't see him ever winning the title more just knocking a lot of guys out of title contention like Okami has done.

Okami's pretty much getting a title shot because Anderson (probably) wants that DQ back, and really there are no other real options.
Rewatching the episodes via marathon today, I still find Jessie's antics to be pure comedy. I haven't really enjoyed this season as of yet. The fight with Dante was a snoozefest but I don't hold it against Jessie because he's fighting an opponent who must think he's at a grappling tournament.

Yeah, a grappling tournament where you pull no submissions and keep your back on the ground.
