some serious G n P from Sokoudjou

No shit man, those handful of slow, precise shots that opened him up were nasty, and then he just dribbled his head on the mat.

I was always disappointed with Sokoudjou from his run in the UFC, but I became a fan in the Mousasi fight. Glad to see him getting a win after that Minowa fight.

That's how Sok does

He unloads in the 1’st round. Dangerous gatekeeper IMO, if you can weather the storm from Sok, then it shows the kind of composure and defensive ability necessary for elite fighters; he also won’t lay down, so you have to be able to generate significant offense to stop him in the later rounds.

Sucks for Soku, because he’s clearly alright, eyes open, arms up, he got rocked, but wasn’t out. Hell, didn’t even looked rock, he looked shocked that Minowa put him down…

But fate would have it that Minowa become the Super Hluk champ.

Seriously a pretty BS stoppage, but that’s Japan for you.

Like there haven't been BS stoppages in the UFC. Get out of here son.

Oh how cute!

Both father and son post on BE.

It really is too bad that Sok couldn’t make it in the UFC. He reminds me a lot of Joe Riggs. All the talent in the world but rarely brings it in the cage.

Great fight but.....

Great fight but I have better reception on my summer home TV with bunny ears!

I'm from Canada, and they think I'm slow eh!

Ferreira is no joke, I had believed it was only a matter of time before he come to the UFC or SF…But DAMN!!! That was great to see Sokoudjou do well, very impressive GnP.

is if still part of the UFC?

If not… why is McSweeny and not Sokoudjou..?

by SkeezinSteevin on Jul 12, 2010 10:47 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

Because Soko repeatedly crumpled under pressure and looked an awful lot like a flash in the pan. He was making big money – McSweeny makes peanuts – and never justified his pay.

He really should have been developed a bit more. The Arona and Little Nog upsets were the worst thing to happen to his development.

It’s about time Sokoudjou Sokoudjou’d another guy.

Seriously man.

Basically, you should never hold on to a single leg against Sok unless you want a crater in your face. Rog and Ferreira learned that the hard way
