Cung Le is a lot of fun to watch. He flicks those kicks with unbelieavable quickness and accuracy. It is truly a pleasure to watch. Add that to the fact Scott Smith thinks he is rewarded points for absorbing blows and you know why Cung Le was up 20-17 after two rounds. However, the strikes were not really doing much damage as they were scoring points so the fight was never over and Scott Smith proved that.
In a repeat of his fight against Radach, Smith hands down lost the early rounds, but landed one big punch in the final round to take the fight. He clipped Le in the third and finished off the wobbily Le with some left hooks and pumbling on the ground. Ha-Lirious, Scott Smith even admits in the post fight interview that his style is to take punches because he has a good chin and power punches of his own. He may never be a real contender in the division, but I will be excited for every card Scott is on. The fight really is never over until the it is over with him.
Short night, but good night of fights. Two first round finishes, some impressive performances, a potential fight of the night, and a come back win. Strikeforce put together some solid matches and they paid off in full. Hopefully next time there will be more than seven total fights on the card.

EXACTLY, he is the entire reason you keep cautious and never just rush right in.

I remember people saying that Chung Lee is the new Bruce Lee and that he would be Anderson Silva, lol... it's comical to me, now you guys know the truth, he is a nobody in MMA, a guy with only 7 fights in MMA. I am tired of people hyping fighters when they haven't even proved themselves an Kimbo Slice is just another example
