    Man seeing Leben fight is just like depressing now

    If that winds up being his last fight, on the one hand I'd be sad because no more Leben, but I'd also be happy because man, seeing him get beat up like that this often isn't fun, especially when you think of the possible brain damage. Get out while you can and are able to, Chris.

    Man, I felt really bad for Leben. After everything he's been through, both the damage he takes in the ring and the med problems. He seems very much cogniscent of the dangers of getting clocked and called the fight because of it. Here's hoping he's got his dues money-wise.

    Wasn't his drug suspension for painkillers already, too?

    So it's especially a case where man it is totally not fun to see him taking a beating

    I keep missing most of the events on accident lately

    Yeah, there isn't really a way to justify a full contact martial arts career for Leben anymore. Tough, but thems the breaks.

    Fuck off and die.

    It's like a historical oddity now. The last bastion of Nü Metal.

    I like both fighters. I hope Dustin takes it, cause I saw a cool documentary with him in it the other day.

    it's still terrible, but now it's sort of nostalgically terrible!

    Woohoo! That was a fantastic fight from Poirer. Very patient with his shots and tricky with the ground game.

    Fuck off and die.

    Porter looked brilliant. Smart move taking him down just to open up for punches.

    diego needs to switch to like team alpha male or something

    He might still lose fights but at least if he wasn't with Jackson he'd have entertaining losses

    I'm hoping the gracie dudes do a breakdown of that sub

    It looked like he tapped to pressure on his forearm, not the elbow?

    Or was it just an awkward looking normal armbar?

    It was hard to tell, but it looked like the elbow was synched in pretty well. I think it was just a case of getting the other arm away and creating the correct angle. Very slick whatever happened!


    Yesssssssssssssss Josh motherfucking Barnett time!

    Blows like that aren't illegal? The knee to face and elbows to almost the back of the head (but I think he was hitting the side).

  • CampyCampy Registered User regular
    Jesus H those elbows! Those not quite 12-6 strikes are tricksy. It's a stupid rule anyway though, so no complaints.

  • KanaKana Registered User regular
    I thought Barnett was looking way better there for the first few seconds, but man as soon as Browne made contact Barnette just looked completely physically overpowered

    Browne is a scary dude

    As long as the opponent isn't grounded, a knee to the face is fine.

    The elbows were hitting his ear

    Aghh, my previous edit has come to pass. We now really do have to watch Leben get picked apart again.

    Too much sadness in quick succession :(

    nah the 12-6 rule is only for the vertical up-and-down elbows. Because some congressman thought they were more dangerous because he had seen karate dudes breaking bricks like that.

    These matches are getting shorter and shorter as the event progresses. At this pace Ronda will probsbly win with a 30 second armbar and Weidman a first punch KO.

    Yeah, it's a daft rule for sure. People seem to get around it by flaring out the elbow at the start of the strike though. Lot's of fighters do it though, I'm just choosing to pick up on it now because I have a man crush on Barnett.
