To quote Sean William Scott...
“why are those shorts so short????” That was an epic payback ball shot by Mighty Mo.

whats with the shoes?
didnt realize you can kick while wearing shoes in dream? has it always been this way in mma? i thought when you picked shoes it meant no kicks.
yeh that’s how it is in k1, dunno why kicks are allowed w/shoes in dream

For some reason I always thought the rule was no kicking to the head but the rest of the body is ok. But you see Barnett throw a head kick so…
The old PRIDE rule was that you couldn’t kick to the head on the ground if you wore shoes.

Well, to be fair...

Thanks man for the “spoiler” free post, I prefer not to know the results beforehand if possible.

Barnett's sub was interesting
not really a kimura…more like the straight armbar that Hazelett pulled on McCrory, except from side control.
It is an armbar, and really from that position it is more of a pain move. From what I could tell, Mo had plenty of space to move his hips so that Barnett wouldn’t finish it there.
To be honest, I view that fight as a loss for Barnett even though he came away with a W. He got tagged numerous times while trying to play Mo’s game. It wasn’t nearly as impressive as somebody who should be fighting Fedor should be.

Exactly.
The blows Mo was able to land and stagger Barnett with there would have been very troublesome from some of the true top 10 fighters in the HW division.
Yeah
I remember thinking during the early portion of the fight when Barnett was still moving stiffly and got tagged several times, “Man, if that had been Fedor hitting him, the fight might have been over right then and there.”

Seriously?
Because he beat an over-the-hill, out of shape K1 fighter in MMA?
You must be keeping a different Top 5 than everyone else.
bad sarcasm?
mighty mo rocked him too at some points u cant tell me barnett looked good at all
Milk is right
How does Barnett propel back in the top 5 after this performance? Did anyone give Mo a chance when the match was announced? Barnett, IMHO needs to earn his way back up. He failed how many steriod tests? and, Hasn’t beat a top 10 HW since new years 06.
and the heavyweight division has so drastically improved since 06
i dont think barnett could hang with this new crop of heavyweights especially the ufc guys JDS, cain, carwin, mir, and brock would all beat the fuck outta him if he fought them the way he did last night
Sounds like they’re thinking about putting him in the LHW Grand Prix. I say FUNK DAT.

That would make the GP more interesting IMO.
Mousasi having rematches doesn’t excite me too much, Minowaman fighting someone like Seth Petruzelli on the same card will. haha.

Mighty Mo wasn't in shape
He kinda gassed after 2 minutes …that’s what happens when u prepare for 2 weeks for a fight ?
Jimmy Ambriz...
I had to watch the way he got reversed twice, it was like a turtle trying to get the back of a squirrel.
"You hit too hard, too hard, too hard..."
Letting Mo knee him in the Balls was:
The only half assed attempt Josh has shown to win trust of the fans back. Mo should have put some ass behind that knee.
Barnett’s one of the best fighters in the history of the sport. Good to see him back.
Do people hate him for something other than his failed tests? Because the reaction to anything Barnett-related these days seems a bit too much to be only that.
3 failed steroid tests, causing the cancellation of one of the most anticipated non-ufc/pride cards in history, tarnishing the UFC heavyweight belt, being an all around jerk.

You are right.
Brookhouse hit the nail on the head. It seems everywhere Josh goes the MMA crumbles behind him. What would Brock haters say if his resume was replaced by Josh’s? I don’t begrudge him from making a living. But, he needs to stay in Japan. I think if Fedor fights Josh, Fedor’s rep is gonna suffer. Sorry, Josh. You may have been one of the best ever, but, Everyone is tired of being let down by you.
Ok, I can see the being a jerk part, but I just can’t blame him for the failure of the Affliction card. Maybe it’s just because I really enjoy watching him fight.
so what do you blame for the cancellation of the Affliction card?

not blaming him is delusional

To hate someone? No, specially when he’s a pro athlete. I’ve always been under the impression that PEDs on pro sports are the norm.
Steroids are considered cheating, that’s the whole point of them being tested for in sports. Whether they all do it or not is something I don’t know but I do know that Barnett does because he keeps pissing hot(and if it is that easy to get away with then it makes it double bad on Barnett because he can’t even do that right).
I don’t think people hate him as a person but as a fighter he is a guy who has been caught cheating in the sport 3 times now so yea there is going to be a backlash when his name comes up. He went from getting ready to fight Fedor on a huge card that people were pumped for to not even showing up for his own steroid hearing in California, there are going to be repercussions to his popularity with fans.
I can’t imagine why Showtime didn’t want to book Jimmy Ambriz? :D

I think it would be better to just take that Hansen v Fernandes video down then let anyone else be as upset as I just was once I realized I had just watched the last 4.5 minutes of a decision.
The dida v noons fight skips the whole first round, too. I’m not even going to bother with the rest.
Maybe a warning these videos are just for people who want to see the endings, not the whole fights.
the problem is
you didn’t miss anything from the first round of either the Hansen or Noons fight.
Follow me on Twitter @KidNate
blah over 5 hours recorded and It stopped during the mighty mo/barnett fight. I Knew I shoulda stayed awake.
You didn’t miss anything, really.

Barnett would get skull fucked if he took on anyone good. He should stay in Japan.
Keep firing Assholes!
Blackout is always right
That's certainly one way of saying it.
