They should both get contracts for this.

that was great to see. Think the 3:1 dog should get the win here

Nothing like slipping out of the third guillotine because your forhead starts gushing blood suddenly.

failed subs from the bottom unless they're triangle related don't usually get a lot of credit with the judges

but dude being such a big fave could play a role if the judges knew who was supposed to win, they're humans they can help but be biased at times

Cummins Fejao

That's the fight I was most hyped for and it lived up to my hopes

I think Issa/Alcantara was good but I missed parts doing dad stuff

Missed first fight but it might've been good based on what I know after the fact

I liked watching Magny Maia but that was a litmus test for both. To see how real Magny is (7 UFC wins in a row going in) and seeing where Maia's at vis a vis his age and facing a young buck with size who's knocking on contention

Wasn't the best necessarily but answered questions

It was a very good fight but I'd be pissed if I paid for the PPV and was watching TUF fights

It was actually higher quality

Bonnar/Griffin means so much to the UFC's success but it was basically a Tuff Man fight

All stand up and pillow fisted

That's right I said it

They're fighting for position

If one of them isn't good at it he's on his ass or thai clinched/dirty boxed

If you watch lower class fighters you'll see what happens when they don't hug

Or watch a top quality wrestler, they can't be stopped so they go straight to ****ing and skip the hugging

Rat,

Think guys backing each other down playing ball

Shaq can't be stopped against anyone where other dude's give up no ground against some others because they're so strong

and i think he was talking about the various hugs that we have seen before each round at 0:00. Like a hug is super nice and non threatening and then you use your fists to knock the person you just hugged unconcious.
