I'm starting to like Miguel Torres and I'm not sure if that wasn't a good call, he was starting to eat that jab, probably not a bad move.

Whis is the type of fight that needed to be on the debut of MMA on network TV.

It displayed all aspects of Mixed Martial Arts, early pick for Fight of the year

as much as i would've liked to see a definitive ending, Maeda's eye was completely shut, they had to stop the fight. Props to Torres and Maeda, that was a fucking war

Not this time. Maeda's eye was completely swollen shut, not just bloody or bruised, his eye was sealed closed, probably has a broken orbital.

Letting him continue would have been reckless and irresponsible by the doctors and ref.

Interesting conclusion.

I do think that sometimes he is excited or winded from body shots. He has a huge drive to win - and when he sees an opening he puts everything he has into it.
