OT: General UFC/MMA/Boxing discussion VII

[TRG]

Wtf TKO?!

 

[MD thaivuN]

weird ending lol

 

[mariolemieux66]

Wtf TKO?!

I dont think the guy was able to get up after the 15 minutes.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Anticlimactic to say the least

 

[MD thaivuN]

i'm pretty okay with the stoppage. At first, i was thinking he probably wasn't out because he was moving his legs. Then, on replay, his leg could have been on auto-pilot as he was out as he's goes limper with each movement.

 

[MD thaivuN]

dunno how Garcia handles his corner instructions. You got Firas and the Cuban coach shouting in two different language at the same time.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

That Garcia guy is built like a truck. Giant legs and back. His cut had to suck.

 

[MD thaivuN]

i remember when Laflare was hyped enough back in the days that he was a betting favorite against Damian Maia LOL

He's remarkedly so unexceptional

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Both guys suck at working from a dominant position. Garcia looks like he's ready to go to bed, just zero energy, all them muscles are draining his oxygen I guess.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Brendan Fitzgerald ? Way to bring out the big guns UFC.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

That Hooker kid has the flying knee KO finish down to a tee !

 

[TRG]

Dan Hooker is good

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Matt Serra in the pioneer section ? The dude fought in the mid to late 2000's ! If you didn't have at least one fight where headbutts and groin shots were legal you weren't a pioneer in my book.

I love how the narrator on Branch's pre-fight intro was like: "Branch has no intention of playing gatekeeper for Santos". Win or Lose, Branch is still a gatekeeper in the division made 99% of gatekeeper archetype fighters.

The gate just slammed shut on Santos Miller lost though so the gatekeepers are 1-1 tonight.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

The heavyweight division is in such dire need of fresh talent that almost any half decent newcomer is automatically labled as the ''next big thing'' .

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Potential fight of the night up next. Both Edgar and Swanson are absolutely incapable of being boring.

 

[MD thaivuN]

fight stuck at a simmer. Frankie can't find the takedowns, Cub can't find his range

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Frankie gets this one on volume I guess. Both guys couldn't quite execute their gameplan tonight.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Yep, sounds about right.

 

[LyricalLyricist]

Feel like i'm watching a repeat of another fight with Edson.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Turns out Barbosa can't do much on his back. Have to hand it to the dude though, he sure can absorb a lot.

Surprise! If this goes on he'll be gatekeeper for contender status.

you'd think training with Frankie Edgar would help his bottom game.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Poor Barboza, that's two career shortening fights in a row for him. He's a hard dude though, I have to give him that. He can take a beating.
