Im with @ben, Mousiasi dived into the kick, it was aimed to the torso, Hall got lucky, he trew a good kick but if Mousiasi hadn't dived into it Hall wouldn't have gotten the KO, tough luck for Mousasi, and Hall got lucky, to bad I really wanted to see Mousasi win, he really has a chance to make a run for the belt, even if he ends up loosing, but Hall will just Bisping his UFC career

Roy's going a little bit against his usual "slug it out" approach and is going more for a grappling match with Barnett.  I wonder why?
