remember when vitor belfort almost kicked Jones' head off at the start of the fight and Big John was all "you had it coming." ? Well I hope the same thing happens when somebody breaks Jon Jones fingers in the first seconds of a fight and Herb Dean shrugs his shoulders. you know what gently caress zuffa. kiss my gifs

Breaking newsGlover Teixiera posted:"First i wanna thank all the people who sent me messages. It wasnt my time. I gave my best, Jon is tough, he took all my shots. i'll have to get my rib and shoulder checked and I tore a muscle in my ab. The shoulder is not dislocated, but the doctor said it could have been dislocated during the fight, and it popped back in place, possibily damaging a ligament. I'll get an MRI this week". Brazilian loses fight, says it was all due to the skill of his opponent and injuries his opponent inflicted on him.

Looking that up reminded me the reason I have archives is because someone here ran a thread on guessing who Overeem's opponent at Dynamite would be and I got lucky with Todd Duffee.

Only youtube vid I found for it was a camcorder pointed at a TV set to "Bodies" by Drowning Pool(I'm not loving posting that), but I've always loved James Irvin's flying knee on Terry Martin. There's something so perfect about the way Irvin keeps jogging through the momentum afterwards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4eEQ6Cig7c Also, this one was great too. Especially for how Fishers body was almost entirely behind Wiman when it landed. Sprecherscrow fucked around with this message at 15:31 on Apr 28, 2014 |

That Aoki fight is actually near perfect and probably the funniest fight I have ever seen, I saw a replay just when I was starting to get into mma and solidified it as a the spectator sport for me.

Novum posted:I love Gomi and when he wins my heart glows with warmth. Serious post. Agreed Other stuff: JBJ is still a stupid idiot but my heart warmed just a bit in the late rounds where he started going off on Glover on the fence with those uppercuts and elbows. Yet another position where he can murder people. My fav flying knee is Condit/Stun-Gun, but that rope bounce gif is pretty loving wild too Rumble Johnson looked incredible and seeing him and Brenneman on a card together at their proper weights is hilarious. Thanks a lot for giving JBJ a reason to smile Davis. Luke Rockhold owns and I hope they give him his Vitor fight.

Yo count, you asked a few pages back where I saw Mike Goldberg getting pissed about people making fun of him over his on-air gaffes and it's at the end of the youtube compilation of his fuckups I was replying to. Edit: Good card if you like cool guillotines too. Fuckin' Joe Benavidez forcing Tim Elliot to tap out with his feet, Miller putting a guy cross-eyed and celebrating under his limp body hahahaa.

Those Rockold gifs should just focus on the bit where he casually locks up the triangle without looking. Too slick. Jon Jones needs to get called on his eyepoke technique, it's just incredibly blatant and happens every single fight. He doesn't appear to need to cheat, and he'd probably stop if he didn't get away with it. If you reach your hands out with your fingers outstretched, you're a dirty fighter. Johnson has the best hands I've seen at LHW for some time, and if his wrestling defense it that good he might actually have a chance. It's very obvious that he's benefited from Henry Hooft's coaching. Funniest moment of the night: Johnson misheard Henry Hooft in the corner between rounds. Hooft said:"Your cardio's sick" Johnson heard:"Your cardio's poo poo", looked butthurt and said "My cardio's not poo poo...".

wooger posted:Johnson heard:"Your cardio's poo poo", looked butthurt and said "My cardio's not poo poo...". so that's what that was about. That and Rogan constantly saying "Eyebow" made this a weird card. I wonder if Johnson figured it out or if he was handling Davis while thinking "wtf why'd my coach say my cardio sucks"

I'd like to see how effective Jones would be with his fingers taped shut. People always talk about how his opponents "seem to get more tentative" as the fight goes on. In the Glover fight it was never more obvious that opponents get more hesitant to come in because they're afraid of getting raked in the eyes. Jones needs to get the same treatment Super Fence Holding Guy got from Yamasaki that one time. It's one thing to cheat subtly without getting caught, like subtle cage grabs and the like, but Jones' eye poke technique is like 90% of his game away from the fence and the referees just ignore it.

While the eye poking is kind of lovely it is also quite possible that Jones opponents tend become progressively mot tentative because they have the living poo poo beaten out of them when they try to engage.

I love watching Jones fights. You'll either see that amazing moment where he finally gets dethroned and has a hilarious meltdown afterwards, or you'll (much, much more likely) see him beat the poo poo out of people in new and interesting ways. It's win/win. Watching goons go through the five stages of grief in the GDT after the fact is icing on the cake. Mazzagatti2Hotty fucked around with this message at 18:03 on Apr 28, 2014 |
