McKenzie pulls off another guillotine!
What a crap call in the Garcia-Phan fight.
What a fucking horseshit decision. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Garcia didn't win one round let alone two. Get the judging fixed, I feel like I wasted 15 minutes of my life because these people are blind. I hope they don't atcually get paid to do that shit otherwise someone is getting ripped off. So sad for Nam that his first ufc fight is a freakin clown shoes decision.
Good for Brookins, good guy, deserves the win. Lets hope he learns to put his hands up before one of the big dogs puts him to sleep. I thought MJ was gonna KO him. I will give the kid credit, one hell of a chin. I cant believe he had a fight with aldo and didnt die with his stance like that.
agree with both of you guys. ridiculous goddamned decision. Seriously? How is that even possible? the only close one was the last round, and nam still won that round. My favorite part of the rick story fight was the joe rogan rant about bullshit decisions.
Been rooting for brookins since he got his prelim win. Didn't know til tonight that he fought aldo before though.
btw anyone got the Will Campuzano vs. Nick Pace link? i wanna see that sub for myself.
Wow that shit sucked I mean the whole fucking card what a waste of time!
I thought the televised fights were very boring. These fighters are just not bringing it lately. I mean Bonner was sort of aggressive but there still wasnt anything exciting about that fight. The strikeforce card was alot better. I had to watch those on youtube this morning. would of watched that over ufc last night, those fights were awesome
agreed just watched the strikeforce fights…they were a lot more entertaining, but still it was free to watch the ufc fights and strikeforce only puts on shows every 3 to 4 months while ufc pushes 2 even 3 shows a month
yawn…….. it was boring as hell
i thought the rick story fight was boring and the demian maia vs kendall grove fight was boring. The others i enjoyed.
I still wanna see the campuzano fight though.
The only fight that was worth a damn was Brookins and Johnson. The rest was pretty boring. I did enjoy the StrikeForce card though, 4 fights in a row finished and in dramatic fashion.
