Would be interested to hear everyones opinion.

there was a UFC fight recently i thought was awesome, but i can't for the life of me remember what it was! Any suggestions?
Sanchez-Thiago was good too.

Bellator: Warren vs Soto

Manhoef vs Mizuno is a good call for Dream.

I really enjoyed Thompson vs JZ for SF.

WEC: Zombie vs Garcia

UFC: Sanchez vs Thiago- Silva vs Sonnen was a one-sided beatdown untill a mistake by Sonnen.

I missed Dream 15, i was away for it. i only watched Aoki-Kawkiri. Good shout with Manhoef-Mizuno. There is one fight im thinking of in Dream this year that was really great. Cant remember it though. Dont think it had any big name fighters in it... scratch

Warren-Soto i completely agree with. Great comeback that was.

I enjoyed Silva-Sonnen, everything about it was unbelievable from start to finish. Sonnen really brought the fight to Anderson. And the finish had everyone gasping.

Sanchez-Thiago was a good back and forth aswell, wont forget the screaming slam from Diego. That guy is nuts. Laughing

Any SF fights stick out as being really great fights?

Jacare vs Villesenor was an enjoyable fight. As was Jacare vs Kennedy.

I think Strikeforce's most exciting card will be their next one. Hendo vs Babalu should be a lot of fun and Daley vs Smith will be a war.

Totally agree.

With regards to fights that have already occured, my call's Santiago/Misaki, the definition of a 'to and fro' fight.
