UFC 100

Also, if you noticed, if I remember correctly, when the first takedown happened Frank went looking for the leg and Brock dropped down to not leave his leg out like he did last time, that just shows he has picked up some sub defense

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

I suppose you're right.. I just cant help but feel that Mir was lucky that Lesnar was so green and mad that mistake. Not that he needed luck to perform the sub.. he was just lucky Brock pretty much gave it to him. Of course theres skill involved for Frank, not everyone can pull off that kinda shit.. but Brock still pretty much gave it to him.. so in essence, isnt Frank lucky for that?

 

[Liquidrob]

The only thing you can say was 'luck' if you tried hard enough was that Mir was lucky Brock didnt know what to do, but to me thats more of a skill issue, not luck

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

WTF.. when was this?

He lost to Kimo in 1996 in Japan.

I guess you could say he was lucky he got a fight with a BJJ novice.

what was up with rogan saying Belcher was robbed right after the decision?

I had Akiyama winning, I think the takedowns got him the win and he was still landing good shots in the 3rd

I could see where you could have Belcher winning, but robbery?

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

I thought Belcher won the fight, but its arguable on either side. Akiyama might've slightly pulled out the 3rd round.. that round was hard to judge. IMO it was clear Belcher won round 1, and Sexyama won round 2. I was pretty surprised to see Akiyama get all three rounds from one of the judges.

I don't think it was clear he won round 1 at all. He had one knockdown but otherwise was being outstruck. This isn't boxing, a knockdown doesn't automatically win the round. I probably would have scored it 29-28, but I can see how someone saw it 30-27. Belcher went away from everything he was doing well in Round 3 and was consistently eating hard punches from a guy who had one eye

he didnt have 1 eye, he was just giving him the sexyama wink, no can defend

fedor wink>sexyama wink

 

[calgaryballer]

fedor wink>sexyama wink

But this BJ wink is so adorable

Probably not Fedor adorable, but damn close

 

[Hogle]

I'd say lesnar vs mir I was not luck, nor skill, it was experience vs lack of experience, and thats why mir is "lucky" because lesnar gave it to him after he was dominating the whole start of the fight.

 

[Anthony]

But this BJ wink is so adorable

Probably not Fedor adorable, but damn close

say what?

 

[Liquidrob]

I was sad saturday night, I got called out for work right after hendo detacted bispings jaw from his head

I didnt watch the rest of the card until sunday morning

 

[Bigpapa42]

So has anyone heard an update on GSP's groin injury? He talked it up in the post fight interview, making it sound pretty bad. The fact that he dominated two rounds after that is all the more impressive...

fedor wink>sexyama wink

[BigBiss]

“Alan was a very tough fighter. The damage of the low blow in the beginning of the fight was quite strong. I thought that if he hit me there again I wouldn’t be able to continue the fight. I wanted to take a large break but there was confusion during the fight. I misunderstood the referee saying five minutes in English as five seconds, I continued the fight urgently but this took a big toll on the exhaustion of my physical strength. My eye got injured when I got downed on the first round by a left. I felt an abnormality in my eye after the end of the 1st round. One eye was closed so I didn’t know about my sense of distance. Because I couldn’t see any attacks from my opponent’s right side I received a lot of leg kicks from that side. I didn’t continue with the game plan, the only reason I won was my feeling that I really didn’t want to lose this fight. After the fight when I was in the hospital, Dana White came personally and told me first hand that me and Belcher’s fight was elected as the fight of the night. I was very happy…. Alan is the toughest fighter I have faced and I’m proud to have been able to fight him. I will devote myself from now on so please support me.”

Sexyama ... Class act

yeah that was crap, how ever it gives me the inpresstion hes not going to get any breaks. hes going to have to string 5-6 wins in a row and just kinda slap dana in the face befor he gets a sniff at a title shot.

I had it 29-29.

1: 10-10
2: Akiyama
3: Belcher

Neither side would have had any gripe, it was a close fight. Judges fear the draw, most of them are afraid to score a 10-10 round, but that's bullshit. Either switch to half points, or score the even rounds 10-10. The current system is broken.

And like I said earlier in the thread, anyone complaining about the 30-27 judge (Joe Rogan) dosn't understand scoring. Any of those rounds could have gone either way, so its not inconceivable that one judge saw Akiyama win all 3. You can think a fight is razor thin close and still score it 30-27.
