people do grumble about it but there's not a lot you can do.

my guess is that the woo'ing started in vegas. the UFC has regulars in vegas who are heckler types. they sit in the nosebleeds and shout things to try to get laughs from the crowd. one of them probably started it and never stopped because it always gets a response. it's like birds calling to each other, or people punching around a beach ball at a concert.

I think sometimes they give a fighter like cyborg, who claim to sell a lot of ppv, a chance to prove it. Idk if it's fair but it's definitely, put up, or shut up.
02-22-2018 , 07:15 AM
Have to remember that Cyborg was basically the only option after main event fell through and no other champion wanted/could headline.
02-22-2018 , 07:23 AM
At least we ll get rid of cyborg faster, she can go to bellator and the 145 belt can disappear from ufc.

Fomer UFC fighter Terry Etim making a deep run in the Party Poker Live UK championship sitting in 8th chip position after day 2, always enjoyed watching his fights.

i'm gonna come out of retirement to bet on this bryan caraway fight next weekend. he's going to be filled with rage over meisha dumping him after 10 years and then immediately getting knocked up by another fighter. he might just kill this guy

Mike Perry on Dad and God:

https://youtu.be/vgG3-HyqaUA?t=27m34s

The whole interview is worth watching, but his explanation for leaving religion is quintessential Platinum Perry. I've come full circle on this dude. Also, his **** talking of Jeremy Stephens is pretty funny:

He was the guy that got hit by a bus which caused quite the digression here, if I remember right.

I love Mike Perry but it's tough to root for him when he eats punch after punch, nothing but head hunting, without throwing a single feint. Also not sure why he goes for the takedown with 30 sec left. Horrible game plan with his girl in the corner yelling some of the worst nonsense I've heard.
02-24-2018 , 09:58 PM
how did they give the other guy the 3rd round? wth
02-24-2018 , 10:20 PM
Screw the takedown, that's Tecia's round.
02-24-2018 , 10:26 PM
Sick round.
02-24-2018 , 11:08 PM
uhhh... sick fight but...

that was an illegal knee in the middle of the KO

what will the commission do about something like that? Clearly he was probably done, but a finish including an illegal knee is still...

***** like DC says even the 2 elbows right before the knee (that seemed to only graze) were massive back of the head elbows

Most all the power shots were legal. The knee missed and elbows were an attempt at legal shots. Careless by Jeremy. If the knee landed I could see a DQ.

the weird thing with the elbows is UFC fighters constantly land blows to the back of the head due to fighters moving or refs just missing it. I guess because it happens right before the knee is why they are getting so much attention.

I wonder if he pulled up the knee all of a sudden realizing oh ****. he seemed t have a clean shot to the head then missed high last second
02-24-2018 , 11:56 PM
I think he was trying to catch him in the face as he was getting up. He waited for Emmett to get up to one hand and then Emmett went immediately back to both hands, not clear if he missed on purpose or Emmett fell/moved out of the way.

02-26-2018 , 10:04 AM
i have a lovely feeling that T City is gonna take out edgar this weekend.

frankie is gonna go for the first takedown, realize he doesn't want anything to do with the ground, and then will get lit up on the feet for the next 5 rounds.

Yeah Stephen's seemed to think the new rules = "one hand up = fair game, knee away" regardless of the fighter being grounded because of his knees on the ground. Who knows if Big Dan's explanation to him of the new rules weren't clear enough...either way it sounds like he misunderstood them.

It would be interesting to know if Big Dan reminded him that regardless of the new rules (hands on ground)...if the fighter has knees on the ground he is grounded. Or if he left that out assuming that JS would obv know it.
