Anyway, he was impressive and beat a Legend handily. Looking forward to his next fight. Maybe Phil Davis.

Yeah, Bonnar's one tough dude to finish. In my opinion he's got one of THE most underrated chins in MMA. Don't think I've ever even really seen his name mentioned when looking at discussions on which fighters have the best chins in MMA.
Though, with that said, if Bonnar took the step up in competition I think there's a lot of guys who'd finish him. That includes Jon Jones who couldn't get it done the first time around.
I like Bader vs Bonnar because I actually think it'd be a very competitive fight that either guy can win, but I think Bader's way higher up in the rankings at this point and fighting Bonnar after beating Rampage is a huge step back.

So no, I don't think Bader would "beat the piss out of Bonnar." I think it'd be a close and tough fight though.
@krazyhopz I wouldn't pick Bader over Machida unless I'm losing my sanity.
