omigawa sucks

and I mean that respectfully. I want a good japanese or chinese fighter to come out, and they are just not physically or training wise, capable of fighting american fighters or more physically superior fighters

Seriously don't take me serious. Seriously....

Omigawa doesn’t suck. His MMA skills are great, but he’s 36 now and not getting any quicker. Making matters worse is his tendency to box without any head movement, but he is durable and savy, hence no one in the UFC being able to finished him in his latest run

I remember Joe stevenson finishing him

in his “PRIME”, like i said they can not physically compete or do not have the camps to compete with other nations mma training, not being racist, just stating what ive seen

Seriously don't take me serious. Seriously....

David Castillo,,

In his breakdown of this fight, in the why you should care section, Castillo had a great quote:
“Everybody’s a contender at Heavyweight.”

Why doesn’t he just do that every single time

Fighting is like champagne. It goes to the heads of cowards as quickly as of heroes. Any fool can be brave on a battlefield when it's be brave or else be killed.
