UFC 83 - Serra vs. St. Pierre 2

Recommended Posts

Kalib Starnes just put on the worst performance in years.

 

I'm glad Quarry embarrassed him at the end. Normally I wouldn't like to see that but it was 100% deserved.

Audio is a bit behind on the stream.. so I was reading the board going:

 

"Rocky? WTF?"

 

..but yeah, that was fucking great.

Watching the stream as well. I've noticed that I'm a little behind on things. But not tooooo much.

 

I picked GSP and Rich to win on MMAplayground, but I put tiny bets on Lutter and Serra just in case

How the fuck can Kalib even attempt to have an MMA career after that?

 

 

That's a really good question.

 

If you have an injury so bad that you're just going to run backwards for three rounds, you'll look a LOT better by pulling out of the fight altogether.

 

There's no real excuse.

Yeah, Kalib needs to knock his next opponent the fuck out. He's gonna take some time away from the octagon. I can't imagine Dana bringing him back soon after that.

 

Can't wait to hear the excuse tomorrow

From Observer, even got its own headline

 

Middleweights: Nate Quarry (16-2) def. Kalib Starnes (10-4-1) via unanimous decision. 30-26, 30-27, 30-24

Yahoo! score: Quarry 30-27

 

Turning point: Starnes, in training, apparently worked on running the 40 at full speed, only backwards. That set the tone for the match.

 

Analysis: Starnes was defensive to the point the Canadian crowd switched 100%, cheering Quarry loudly at the end after booing most of the fight. Quarry stayed in the pocket and came forward throwing punches and low kicks. But Starnes continually backpedaled so Quarry never had him in trouble. The lopsided scoring of any round had to be more Starnes being docked points for not fighting because Quarry never had him in trouble. Quarry mocked Starnes in the last minute, once running in place and later folding his arms and daring Starnes to come forward.

Lutter is lucky he wasn't on the end of a sick sick KO in that fight. He was dead on his feet minutes before it was over.

 

As for Starnes... he'll be on a long hiatus, that's for sure. At least.

Franklin is in the worst position though.

 

He can't fight Silva...not for another year at least.

 

 

Is Machida going to be fighting in the UFC anytime soon? So he can at least have a chance to avenge that loss?

Lyoto fights next month. Against Tito.

 

Here we go. Main event time.

 

 

Thanks, I know they'd been negotiating, just haven't been keeping up on upcoming events as much, just watching things as they happen.

 

He's going to destroy Tito though.

 

Time for the big one!

Lyoto's been in the UFC for over a year.

Well I just suck :)

 

Him and Rich just aren't fighting at the same weight right now

 

I was expecting Serra to come out first, even though he's the champ
