"The second round of the 2006 Grand Prix was a great event and better then the first round in my opinion. Werdum vs Nogueira was my favorite fight...I hope the old Nog returns. You can really see the difference between this fight and his latest with Frank Mir. He had good head movement and excellent boxing. 8 of the 9 fights didnt go to a decision. Barnett vs Mark Hunt had a nice finish. Cro Cop showed why he use to be so dangerous. Fujita vs Silva was a really good fight and had a really nice knockout ending. My favorite ending had to be the Vitor Belfort one. Lightning hand speed was displayed in that fight! Nogueira vs Overeem was excellent and had a good finish.
