So you didn't like Shogun/Hendo?

It's not that I didn't like see those extra two rounds and of course you can make the argument that we get to see some extra exciting rounds like Shogun/Hendo, but...

I just don’t like it. I think it takes from the “purity” (I use this term loosly) of the sport. Like it’s more for the spectacle then the sport. I just believe 5 rounds are special and you have to really earn that right in the form of a title shot. (I guess you could also make the argument that it helps challengers get that 4 and 5 round experience they might need to win in a 5 round championship fight but…) I don’ think 5 rounders necessarily lead to better fights because a different pace has to be set. Like this fight. They were pacing themselves for the 5 rounds and it may have been much more exciting as a 3 rounds sport. And thinking about it someone new to the sport my not have understood why all the fighters were 3 rounders but the Rashad/Davis fight was. I also think it is a lot more wear and tear on the fighters to fight these 5 rounders.
I hated when I heard about the switch to 5 round main events, and I still don’t like.

The Weidman/Maia score was announced wrong, it was a unanimous decision for Weidman.

I think Dana will at least be happy that there won’t be some UFC= Barbarianism with the “casual” media this was about as civilized as the ufc gets lol lots of weak no damage grappling. The fuel prelims were pretty good though.

by The_Devil_You_Know on Jan 28, 2012 10:44 PM EST reply actions  

I guess Lavar deserves that.

I thought Swanson would get it, but Beltran’s never been knocked out before. Hopefully he gets cut.

I enjoy Chael at post-fight pressers.

When he’s not “on”, he has very good answers and explanations. He breaks his own fights down very well.

Me too. I was so shocked to find myself rooting for him after his heroic efforts to get to his feet started to affect me.

He hits like a truck.

he's a monster

terrible, terrible on the ground, or after two rounds. But he can definitely end your night in a hurry.

I have to agree

He wasn’t given any thought coming in. He definitely won’t win a championship, but he’ll be fun to watch smashing low level fighters on the undercard.

If he keeps running his mouth about Brazilians

And he beats Silva in front of a stadium crowd, I think the possibility of a riot is high. Especially if he gets up there and plays the heel in a victory speech. Whoa, just thinking about that makes me giggle.

I think it’s gotta be -300 or worse. If it opens in the -200’s I think you will see money come in on Bones quick.

Chael sounded really good in the post conference alot better then his scripted crap.

by The_Devil_You_Know on Jan 29, 2012 12:28 AM EST reply actions  

The scripted crap is great for pre-fight hype

Post-fight everyone appreciates a little honest reflection.

Bisping was sportsmanlike but obviously very pissed off. Can’t say I blame him; I had it 29-28 Bisping too.

I really don’t understand Dunham vs Lentz as fight of the night.
Johnson/Roller was a much better fight.

by roblo on Jan 29, 2012 7:37 AM EST reply actions  

I think they did it as a kudos to Lentz. Besides, you know that the sloppy stand-up “wars” always get the FON bonus. Hell…Rogan usually gives the unofficial FON to Beltran before the fight even starts.
