Wow, El Nino looked like an amateur last night. Thomson controled that fight from beginning to end. His kicks won him that fight. Great fight to watch.

Melendez didn't look right. I wonder if he was more bothered by their old "friendship" than he let on. Thomson sure didn't seem to care.

I don't know. He definatatly couldn't get anything going. He is a lot better fighter than that. However, I think Thomson showed that he is a lot better than what people expected too.

I wonder where Gilbert goes from here. He was the flavor of the month just a little while ago, now he might be flown off the radar

I don't think he'll fall off the radar. I think he'll get his head on straight and come back with a vengence. He looked off kilter and didn't win a damned round. That's crazy

He won't be back. I think that he is done. All the junk he was talking about this being the fight that will put him back to the top of the LW rankings before the fight, it will devastate him. He has been an overrated fighter and Thomson exposed him. He is done. And he better not think about trying to go to the UFC and fight some real LWs either, he would get killed even worse

I really think that it is far too early to make that assumption. Although I find it highly interesting that none of the Gracie clan is talking about this on graciefighter.com

There is no way he is "done." He is too young and too good to be done. So what, he lost two in a row or two out of his last three, whatever it is. There are way too many fights out there for him to prove himself again and he will. I'm sure he learned from it and will get better.
