    Siver looks good tonight.

    Fuck off and die.

    I think he should get the dec. Nunes hopped around a lot and defended takedowns, but Siver landed more and stronger punches and pushed forward.

    I agree with that decision.

    Fuck off and die.

    Are the judges Swedish? If so they appear to do better than our fighters so far.

  • SparvySparvy Registered User regular
    I'm going for Paulo on this one, hopefully a nice sub

    you really don't see that level of awareness and consideration too often.

    Man Gustafsson really throws those counter punches well, Silva lasted better than the janitor though.

    Done with yard work, what did I miss?

    Apparently everything?

    Not surprised that Silva wasn't finished.

    Dudes tough.

    Will Silva be cut though?

    The whole point of rally for mark hunt was that it was hilariously obvious that it was never going to happen

    I think DeMarques Johnson and Paulo Thiago might be in danger of getting cut. Both guys are 4-4.

    Fun fact: Diego Nunes finished every fight he had until he came to Zuffa. Ever since then (WEC 37 on Dec. 3rd, 2008), he has been involved only in decisions, whether he won or lost. He ran himself to 11-0 on being a killer and then ran to 17-3 on decisions only.

    Card was good. I can't believe Paulo got KO'd how he did. Siver was good, Gufstasson was good. That one should have been a 5 round fight, both guys looked like they were just getting warmed up; I can't wait until all main events are 5 rounds.

    B:L, great new thread title.

    I didn't see the prelims, but I thought that was a good card and man the fans were going nuts and pretty into the ground game. I imagined jogan commending the crowd on being intelligent several times.

    Yeah, it was pretty awesome to see fans getting pumped up for submission attempts that weren't super-obvious. We do still get a crappy crowd now and then but for the most part the speed at which MMA fans have learned to appreciate the complexities of the sport has really been amazing.

    I am pleased Maguire won by Gypsy-Jitsu.

  • Peter EbelPeter Ebel CopenhagenRegistered User regular
    I am the fucking dowsing rod of predictions. Why do I always forget this?

    The most important takeaways from this event for me was that Siver can have a career at 145 and that Izquierdo exists and can almost smack an Olympic wrestler to death with karate.

    I remember when I was amazed at crowds that started shouting, "Knee!" during clinches. That seems like a given nowadays. Lots of silly douchebags in each sport, but the majority off MMA fans have caught on to things pretty quickly, I think.

    I used to be grateful just for a crowd that wouldn't start booing as soon as things got to the ground.

    And not like, falling into guard and sitting there for 20 seconds then booing - just booing the moment it touches the ground.
