The thing about that KO was both of them were going in for straight power punches, and Evans caught him first.. Chuck was coming in with a nasty upper-cut that i am sure if he had connected with Rasshad would have sent his ass down. What would have made me fucking laugh my head off is if Chuck had caught him as well, and both of them had gone down. The fuck would have UFC done if they both had laid out each other?

That's an expression i, and many i know use..
"Straight power punches"= They were attempting to knock each other the fuck out by going in with extreme force. 
Still and all i would have enjoyed seeing them both send each other down, and the look on Dana White's face when he had to decide what the fuck would have happened next.

Is Diaz's little "raise the roof" motions showboating? No it's just what he does to keep him in his own striking game. Like I said to each their own.
Really? Are you sure that's a different fight? Rashad is fighting a white guy, it must be chuck... After all the shit people gave him about the rashad dance, of course he toned it down. The man still fights like a cat in heat though.
And the arm raises that gomi and diaz both do is showboating.
It doesn't bother me personally, I just thought it was a little ridiculous to claim he doesn't showboat when the rashad dance exists.

I see you meant like "straight up" not directionally straight I thought you were referring to a straight right hand or something of the sort, I gotcha.
And I guess different people have different definitions of showboating then, and I guess you could call me a showboater
