Okami was really impressive in that he never really seemed to lose control of the direction of the fight and even though it might have been a "boring" fight (save for the brief GnP) from the standpoint of watching one guy neutralize another guy so completely it was interesting to watch.

edit: Also curious if there is a good MMA podcast people recommend, most of those that I've tried are fairly Opie & Anthony-style, and I'd like one that was just news and analysis without a lot of macho sideshow (I suspect that may be a bit much)

My favourite MMA podcast is "The co-main event podcast". Just two MMA journalists discussing the news, but its well delivered and funny. Not macho.

I think Sherdog podcasts are *sometimes* worthwhile, specifically anything presented by Jack Encanacao is great. That means Beatdown when its a roundtable show (breaking down an upcoming event), plus the separate Sherdog rewind podcast, where MMA legends are given in depth interviews.

MMA hour is about 4 hours long, and varies wildly, so hard to listen to regularly.
MMA Beat is a shorter news roundup by the same team, and much better IMO.

Was this around the time he was spinning in the chair and awkward as hell on live television for UFC on FOX?

He bellyaches about everyone he's supposed to fight. He's like the UFC's Mayweather, he'd make actual title contenders do bizarre fraternity initiations while handpicking tomato cans from a coma ward if he could. Torpedoing UFC 151, the bentley full of strippers, the eye-raking; it's like he set out to be the most hypocritical fighter possible.

The loving herbest.

Lets not forget he headbutted in the first 4-7 UFC fights he had.

I just watched this on Youtube ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m40DZKndiM4 ) and Rogan kept saying that the judges would be giving the points to Rory because Rory was on top. Does the UFC really work this way? Because I could see how it would advantageous for a BJJ guy to be underneath rather than on top, and to me it seems that control is more important than positioning, and Condit never really looked like he was of control. In fact with that "meathook" locked in Rory didn't seem to be able to do much of anything (and he didn't).

It's not the UFC that works that way, it's MMA judges who usually overvalue top position over anything the guy on bottom does. That's often not a bad way to evaluate it since the guy on top IS usually the one throwing more strikes and causing more damage while controlling position, not all fighters are as active on bottom as Condit is and it's why most fighters do their best not to get taken down. We sometimes get decisions where the more active guy on bottom loses to the lethargic guy on top (as was probably going to be the case in that Condit/Rory fight) but as you get more into MMA you'll start getting used to the awful judging, the UFC president is very outspoken about it.

Also, why does Jones have to be one of the coolest fighters in the cage and lamest out of the cage? I'm still one of the last Fedor (in his prime) fans, but Bones is too far for me because he just seems like a straight up petulant child.

Fitch vs Hendricks for the best Fitch moment if you ask me.

Speaking of bloody elbow it is really the only MMA news site I go to because I like the format for mobile but they have hands down the dumbest people who post in the comments section. Turns out that after listening to the Tim Kennedy interview audio I kind of like the guy. I've always wanted Bisping to lose whatever fight he is in but I wasn't sure if I liked Tim Kennedy because he has not been that fun to watch. Turns out Tim Kennedy is a pretty decent guy and I hope this is Michael Bispings last fight because I really hate watching him fight.

I hope Jones completes his heel turn by just lead blanketing Glover for 25 minutes. At least there wouldn't be a disconnect between the cool poo poo he does in fights versus the turd poo poo he does in life.

I would imagine that becoming the literal best in the world at something about three years after you start it probably doesn't do a lot for your sense of humility, and given that he decided to start fighting because he knocked up his girlfriend and needed to make some money he was probably a bit of a dope to begin with.

I remember clear as a (drunk) bell watching Jones debut against freaking when he walked out to Angry Johnny by Poe. I fiercely (drunk) proclaimed this man was going to be a champion and kill Bonnar, simply because of his bad rear end choice in walk out music. I looked smart.

But I bet fucker just picked the song without a clue who Poe is. God damnit.

Given his latest series of tweets, I think this song by Poe requires examination:

Poe posted:

Johnny, Angry Johnny, this is Jezebel in Hell
I wanna kill you, I wanna blow you...away

I can do it you gently
I can do it with an animal's grace
I can do it with precision
I can do it with gormet taste

Chorus:
But either way
Either (way), either way
I wanna kill you
I wanna blow you...
Away

I can do it to your mind
I can do it to your face
I can do it with integrity
I can do it with disgrace
