Nothing much, watching the game, drinking a bud

Alright alright alright, I'm booting her up thanks to the fight pass. I'm pretty drunk but still really coherent. DC drink prices make it hard to be blackout drunk before like 3 or a house party. Anyway this takes place in Detroit's convention center but they didn't know how the gently caress to sanction it so it's got hilarious rules like "OH NO CLOSED FISTS" or some poo poo, idk it might have just been to the face. I'm drinking and the announcers aren't helping. Also if anyone wants to know what I've been drinking it's been a lot of Stone and Flying Dog

Are you sure you aren't watching Pancrase?

The loving crowd goes wild for Dan Severn despite nobody knowing where the gently caress Coldwater, Michigan is. Ken Shamrock looks like a GI Joe doll. One of the Octagon girls has a sign that reads SHOOTFIGHTING. I decide this is a good time for a gin and tonic. The weights for the fight are 215-246. Welp.


MINUTE ONE:
Big John is the ref. he yells LETS GET IT ON, they circle, they circle some more. Dan is still circling, he throws a light no wait, yeah he's circling. And Ken is standing there. Dan is roaming. Dan is roaming. Dan is roaming. Dan is circling, he almost looks to throw a punch but decides against it and instead circles. The announcer goes "I don't know what Dan is doing". At this point I realize they don't have a readily available clock so I can't tell how far along it is. Big John is yelling at them to GET IT ON, they refuse. Occasionally one of them tries to land a strike, it doesn't work. 3 minutes in now, Big John yells LET'S GET IT ON COME ON, they continue to circle. And circle. The crowd begins to boo. A man wearing American flag pants is posted up against the outside of the cage. "I think the audience wants them to get it on" "Still nothing happening" the announcers say. The crowd starts chanting BULLSHIT. I decide I need another drink and start deciding if I want a gin and tonic or a beer.

(PICTURED: Captain America at the top left


The announcers say that neither fighter wants to come out of their game plan, I look for a pint of turpentine instead of watching the rest of this fight.Ken is standing in the middle of the octagon which is probably getting him many points for octagon control while Dan circles around him. The crowd boos some more, Dan actually hits Shamrock in the face and somehow draws some blood, the announcers immediately assume it was a finger nail because honestly that makes the most sense after watching this fight. I think they just have one long round , actually I know they are do, or had, or whatever the gently caress but I can't take a break now because I poured myself a tall one and don't want to check it up right now. Big John calls a timeout to assuredly tell both fighters to grow a pair of loving testicles, I'm pretty sure they end up ignoring his call.

(PICTURED: the fight, all of it)
That old UFC logo was dope as poo poo, the announcers just told me they are 12 MINUTES IN. Someone throws something into the octagon. The commentators are very excited.

Shamrock throws like 2 combos and the announcers have a full 3/4 chub for him because it's like the only action anyone has seen all fight. Dan is still circling Shamrock, he's probably circled him like 60 times throughout the night. I just drank the rest of my drink and our neighbors are wondering what the gently caress I'm watching. Like they literally knocked and were like ARE YOU WATCHING FIGHTS, now the crowd is cheering BORING. HOLY poo poo DAN SEVERN JUST WENT IN ON A LEG, THEY SCRAMBLE, and nothing loving happens.

The crowd just started cheering for the Red Wings and Dan shoots the world's worst single after Ken threw the worlds worst punch. Ken scrambles to the top and ends up in mount but Ken has no idea what to do, he throws some God awful punches while Dan tries to shrug him off. Shamrock's corner yells at him to use his elbow so Ken tries to grind his elbow into Dan's eye.

UNDER SIX MINUTES IN REGULATION
Ken is on top. He's not doing a god drat thing, my brother just walked in here and asked what I was watching. I told him and he threw me a beer. It's a summer beer which I kinda question because it's almost Christmas. He asks if I want to put it on the big screen, I shake my head. Ken gets some relatively good body shots in from on top but then decides instead he'd love to rub his chest into Dan's head some more.

(PICTURED: Ken Shamrock gets on top and does literally nothing)

I just now realized that Ken isn't wearing gloves. Which is something I probably already knew but I guess not. Ken is really trying to rub his elbow and wrist into Dan's head in hopes of opening something up. Dan scrambles out, reverses and ends up on top. I just dro[[ed a beer on the ground but luckily it was empty. He's head butting shamrock from the mount and starts landing some really lovely shots with ONE MINUTE THIRTY LEFT but actually oh man those punches and shots are starting to do damage which is kinda impresssive and oh gently caress that was acutally a niceshot.


uh, the fight is over? No wait it's in overtime. I don't remember this fight at all. YES OVERTIME THREE MINUTE PERIOD OKAY SURE WHY NOT
They circle. Dan is circling. Yes, shocking. The announcers say that heart will be the determining factor. Apparently heart leads to being the guy that tells you where to get in line for 50 cents autograpgh. I'm now drinking straight shots of gin because I don't want to go get tonic from the store. The announcer says there is one minute left in the overtime and the crowd kinda boos and then is very confused. I don't think Dan has thrown a single strike all overtime. THE FIRST OVERTIME IS OVER, Ken looks like somebody threw him in a microwave for 2 mintues.

(PICTURED: all of the fight)
A second overtime is going on, oh my god why is there a second overtime they say this is the last round but I don't even believe them jesus christ this us loving awful and I love Dan Severn

Now they're slap fighting because apparently they just remembered the rules where they aren't supposed to have clsosed fists to the face. This fight has almost gone 30 minutes and I am not happy.Ken tries to shoot in but theres like no time left, dan throws some ugly knees, the fight ends and the commentators say it was a close one, the crowd boos. The dragon jus mentioned he got hit by a cigar butt, more histi is getting thrown into the octagon, that owns, good job detroit.

OF NOTE: They made the judges stand up and hoist a card in the air for whoever they thought won the fight which is pretty funny but also really bad but also awesome.

Maybe that is true. But that's probably not why he refused the lessons.

the fight is supposed to be stopped by a referee when a fighter is no longer intelligently defending himself. if a fighter is still "intelligently" defending themselves but is still taking an enormous amount of damage then it falls on the corner to throw in the towel.

The colloquial term is 'no longer defending himself intelligently.' This can mean (and has meant) anything from Jonny Hendricks landing a few glancing shots on a prone but fully conscious Amir Sadollah or Jones vibrating his elbow near Matyushenko's forehead in a crucifix on the ground, to the Curran/Warren massacre above or Cyborg hammering Carano's head into the mat for ten seconds straight.

Early stoppages were way more common Back In the Day though.

e: Martin Kampmann took a blasting not half as bad against Paul Daley against the cage, and got stopped. I'm sure there's loads of other examples. There's a lot of granularity depending on the referee. John McCarthy gives fighters every chance to recover (to the degree that Overeem got like five punches in on an unconscious Stefan Struve, very uncomfortable stuff) while Yves Lavinge has (had?) a reputation for calling fights at the first sign of trouble.

Well, you don't see a ton of standing TKOs (last one I remember was Bethe Correia over Shayna Baszler) but the referee is not prohibited from stopping the fight if the person getting beat up is technically still on their feet. I think most refs would have jumped in when Warren fell to one knee the first time.

Diaz Maynard was a standing KO that was real ugly because the ref didn't do his job and help Maynard when he was out on his feet, instead Maynard stumbled down like a pisshead.
