There is a very real chance he might lose to the sack of poo poo they pair him with His wear and tear makes me less concerned for his actual performance in the cage then it does his ability to make it through a training camp.

MassRafTer posted:I still think this is the dumbest view of Brock and based mostly on "got knocked silly by two of the hardest hitting heavyweights" and Bas Rutten making way too much about a training partner not wanting to give details about a training camp. The dude reacted better than anyone else reacted to getting hit by Shane Carwin, he didn't go unconscious. When Carwin caught Brock he covered up and backpedaled into the fence, against Cain he started cowering when Cain started landing. Against Overeem he straight up doubled over at the waist into almost a standing fetal position when in trouble, which is kind of a natural reaction that a fighter should learn to break, like closing your eyes. Brock not reacting well to getting hit is a real, observable thing. Dangersim fucked around with this message at 10:09 on Jan 6, 2015 |

MassRafTer posted:Shane Carwin and Cain hit really god drat hard. Overeem kicked him in his weakest point and in general liver shots hurt like hell. What was he going to do against Carwin, stand there and inform him that he'd like another? Shelling up and running away essentially is asking for another. He should have tied up or shot, literally anything other then what he did. Carwin caught JDS with a shot that left JDS not knowing where he was, but he kept his composure and didn't panic. With Overeem I'm not talking about the final liver kick, yeah there was nothing he could do about that. There are 2 occasions where Overeem gets him with good knees and Brock again just shells up and lets Reem get hard punches off.

MassRafTer posted:He did try to shoot after Carwin hurt him, this led to Carwin hurting him more. In the Overeem fight I thought he reacted like a lot of inferior strikers would against him, especially someone who was planning to retire after the fight. Even there I think he tried a really lovely takedown. His heart clearly wasn't in it based on everything we know about that fight. That's probably a sign he shouldn't come back to fight but the dude likes money and maybe he's convinced himself his guts are better now. It's possible he did try to shoot on Carwin, it's been some time since I've seen it. Against Overeem I don't believe he did, he just kinda flailed and tried to get away. He tried a takedown early, got deep on a single, but Overeem started to grab his guillotine and Brock noped the gently caress out of there as fast as he could.

Aurain posted:MRSA is so bad that when it's found in hospitals over here, the media have panic attacks, and for once, they might be fairly rational (by media standards) to do so. I was an EMT in my younger days. I remember showing up at a house on the ambulance and as soon as we went in the cops who were already there starting yelling "Gloves, gloves, gloves!" Then one of them said "she's got mrsa" and the all the experienced guys made oh poo poo faces.

I've seen someone ask Dana about Kurt and he said "We invited him to be on The Ultimate Fighter, but he couldn't pass his physical". The reporter asked, "Do you mean he couldn't pass a drug test?" And Dana kinda smirked and said "He couldn't pass his physical, that's all I'm going to say".
