Josh definnently won the second round he got Chris down and controled him the whole time that is winning a round if you ask me.

Well, I guess that was a good show last night. Sadly, we knew going into the show that a decision by the judges was coming (Yet another bad thing by the producers), but it was enjoyable. Bobby is gone, which is a good thing, but I did think a 3rd round was in order. It wasn't how I wanted the fight to go down, but I finally got the result I was looking for. Now if only Josh would get dropped.
On a side note, I'm so thinking that both Randy and Chuck would love just one round with Bobby. I'm sort of interested to see Dana and Bobby go at each other (Although verbal and not in the cage). Sadly, from the preview there doesn't look to be any match for next week.
The show is still enjoyable, but I'm sadly fearing that the Josh/Chris fight will effect the show the same way the Jarrett/Raven title match did to TNA.

Awesome show this week. Bonnar and Southworth had the kinda of fight that Leben and Koscheck should have had last week. Really nice fight. Lots of good strikes from both and good takedowns(mostly on the part of Bonnar.)
I'd also like to say, Thank God Southworth is gone. Did anyone find it REALLY ironic how all show Southworth was saying how Leben should have just excepted the decision last week, instead of complaining, and then he threw a pussy fit when he lost himself? Southworth is a good fighter, but man, I fucking hate the guy.
Who does everybody think is returning next week? The most obvious pick would be Leben, and that is who I'm guessing. Unfortunately, that means Quarry is gone, which totally sucks.
Again, good show, and Bonnar kicks ass.

Personally I thought Southward won that fight if a winner absolutely had to be picked from those two rounds. I would have liked to see a third round, but I was really surprised by Bonnar winning. Don't get me wrong, I was hoping he'd make Southward tap and cry like a little girl, but I personally don't think he won that fight.
As for Quarry being gone I didn't even make that correlation with most likely Leben coming back. Sounds like a good theory as to how they're going to deal with him coming off the show and finding a replacement. Hopefuly Leben gets a chance to fight Josh again and kick his f'n head off.

If the winner absoulutly had to be picked between the two rounds I would have gone with Bonnar but I think a third round should have been

Not the best of shows thisa week, but it moved the overall story along, which was fine.
Quick thoughts (MAJOR SPOILERS):
Sucks to have Nate gone. I would like to see how well he can fight. I'm on the fence about Josh being back. I liked him, but he lost. Period. If you lose, that should be it. I still don't like Bobby I still don't like Diego That wasn't even a fight this week. Everyone, even the card girls, knew how it was going to end. As much as I hate Diego, he's a hell of a grappler. If you're not good on the ground, don't fight him. You'd think more people would watch Royce Gracie and get the point.

Solid show this week. Sucks to see Nate gone, but GREAT to see Chris back.
And Diego beat the HELL out of Rafferty. That was brutal. That's $10,000 he has already made on this show.

This week's fight was MUCH better than I thought it was going to be. Albeit short, but Alex came fighting and nobody expected that. Forrest didn't have much of a problem making him tap, but he damn near lost his eyebrow in the process. I'm kinda hoping Forrest is off and Alex comes back to replace him. I guess we'll see what happens.
Oh, and I can't wait to see the ass hole theif get the sh*t kicked out of him.

I'm SO with you one seeing (What's his name) get his ass kicked. Granted, every guy I wanted to see lose so far has either won, or one at least one fighyt, so who knows, The guy could win the thing!
That was a great fight. It's always fun to see two guys go toe to toe. That's one hell of a nasy cut. Good fight, but sadly, devistating results for Forrest (And he Won!).
I still want to see Scott in the ring. He talks a good game and he and Chris are getting along good. I just want to see if he's any good in the ring. Sadly, I think Diego may win his division (I hate that guy, but he's good).

I missed this week, and I'm mad, because I really wanted to see Forrest fight. What happened to him though? I heard he might be leaving.

Alex busted Forrest's eyebrow open in their fight. They're teasing that the Nevada state athletic commision may not let him continue to fight with that injury.

I'm going to be REALLY pissed if he is kicked off. I want to see him and Bonnar fight.

Opinions aside, it's hard to ignore Diego's tallent. The guy is a total stud and perhaps the total package in his division. He's already won $10,000 and I really doubt anybody left is going to eliminate him. The only thing I see stopping him is if he messes his hip up anymore, but I doubt that will be the case.
Forrest/Bonnar could potentially be a really fun fight. Something about Bonnar's fight with Southward tells me that Forrest would destroy him though.

Diego is deffinently my pick for his weight division.
Forrest better be able to fight or I'll be very pissed.
Chris Leben is a good fighter and it's nice to see him back hopefully he's got a better attitude now though.
Josh Koscheck is very underated.
Those are my thoughts.
