Good sign, he looked impressived with the kneebar on Ryan McGivern too.
If that's so then man, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing him in the UFC. When I saw the clips I was like, who the fark is this? He's sick man, he's sick.

I like the signings.

It's too bad to see the IFL failing the way it is, but it's good to see that the UFC acknowledges some of the talent that the IFL provided.

I forgot about Jim but he's a good pick up. Dan was very expected.

Well did you see Rory Markham on the last UFN? He was in the IFL. He was a Silver Back

Yeah, he looked like he was going to rip his head off.

thats what the ufc does best...finds the best guys it can and brings them in to an already talented rich division and just adds to the matchups...there are very few "easy" fights in the ufc now....your "easy" fight may be against the ifl champion who isnt a top tier fighter in the ufc yet...that says alot for the talent depths of the ufc...they dont get fighters on losing streaks,throw aways,boring undercard fighters who fight for decisions or have been shown to be one-sided fighters hoping to land one big punch
