RavishingRickRudo Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 Are you guys getting these Tap Out commercials? Are they serious? I thought it was a commercial for roids.
RavishingRickRudo Posted April 2, 2008 Report Posted April 2, 2008 BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOETTTSSSCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 I'd like to be the charter member of the Adam Martinez fan club.
Lei Tong Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 How did so many people not see that coming?

RavishingRickRudo Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Jesus fuck if Hamill ever got himself in a serious, full-time camp. The amount of punishment he can take, his raw power, his wrestling ability. Rape choke?
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 LOL at Joe Rogan saying that Hamill had the "rape choke" in place. That, surely, is a technical term.
Lei Tong Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 LOL at Joe Rogan saying that Hamill had the "rape choke" in place. That, surely, is a technical term. It's actually used quite often to refer to the clasping front windpipe choke. It's also illegal in MMA, but whatever.
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Never heard rape choke before... that's interesting. Adam Martinez looks to be approximately 17. That is quite the gash on Matt's lip.
RavishingRickRudo Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 There is no word for my reaction to that lip shot.
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 That's the second disputed stoppage tonight that I felt was pretty legitimate.
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 It may have set the world record for the word "bro" being said in a 60 second interval. But I agree. I didn't need to hear him talk. Goodbye title shot.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Taking nothing away from Alves, I thought the fight was stopped premmature. He didn't even give Karo a chance to recover.
Krankor Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Mazzagatti has been involved in both hasty stoppages. In that last one he was running in as soon as Karo's head made contact with the knee.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 That's the second disputed stoppage tonight that I felt was pretty legitimate. Karo didn't go limp, he although Alves was landing it didn't look like Karo was completely out. Not to say Alves wouldn't have won, I still thought they didnt give Karo a chance. I mean Pellegrino landed some mean elbows and had Diaz in a good position, but Dean didnt stop the fight.
Krankor Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Johnson just smashed the shit out of Tommy Speer. He was way to fast. Johnson said he's real 'crunk'.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Johnson RND 1 KO - My upset call of the night, its a pretty evenly match contest, as they are both pretty much the same fighter with good wrestling backgrounds, and KO power. But I think Johnson is faster, and his speed will be the deciding factor, as he crushes Speer with one of his right hands. Damn I called it dead-on.
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Johnson has star potential. He has the power, a solid wrestling base, the look, and he had a great post-fight interview. I look forward to his next fight. As for Karo - I agree. Mazzagatti could have given him a bit more of a chance but I made the claim it was a legitimate stoppage because it appeared as though Alves was in a position to just hammer the shit out of him. He didn't go limp but he wasn't mounting much of a defense either. The knee and a few of those punches landed very clean and Karo was in grave danger.

But at the same time Pellegrino had Diaz in dominate positions and was landing clean and clear shots, but the referee gave Diaz time to recover... Not to say Alves wouldnt have won at that point in time, I thought Da Mazz jumped into too soon. He didn't allow Karo, who hasnt been stopped in a UFC fight yet, a chance to recover or anything.
RavishingRickRudo Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 How fucking weird is it that Mazigatti doesn't let someone get smashed to death before stopping it?
RavishingRickRudo Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Wow these announcers are biased against Edgar.
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 I just can't support Gray Maynard. Maybe it's because he calls himself "The Bully" or maybe it's because he has a tramp stamp. I don't know. Pretty convincing victory with all the third round takedowns, though. I thought Edgar would have handled Gray easily but I was quite wrong.
Angel_Grace_Blue Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 How fucking weird is it that Mazigatti doesn't let someone get smashed to death before stopping it? It's because he reads this board and is teaching us all a lesson. Let us never question Mazz's judgement again. Also: The fucking weekly emergency test just blocked out the final minute or so of the Maynard/Edgar fight. Laaaame.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 I'm actually impressed by Gray... I had him winning the fight. But it was closer then the announcers made it out to be. I thought Edgar was going to take it... Gray is better then everyone thought.
RavishingRickRudo Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 I think Edgar showed more than Gray in that fight, though Gray obviously overwhelmed Frankie with his superior wrestling. Frankie was using combos, parrying, and head-movement standing while Gray was resigned to single-shotting and didn't seem to know how to handle the combos. Frankies control on the ground and stifled a lot of Grays offense while on the bottom. 30-27 is fucking pitiful. Though poetic justice for Frankie given it's exactly how he won against Fisher.
Mik Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 Anybody catch them wheel around to catch the Xtreme Couture group pose and then quickly cut away when Randy popped into frame?
