wonder why joe b is lower than brian bowles…hes literally only lost to the champ
that gif of daley shows hims trying to dodge punches and block with his arms…what else is he supposed to do?
An experienced MMA practitioner doesn’t try to block punches with his arms outstretched with his hands wide open if his not rocked bad.
I agree! I was rooting for Daley all along. Sure he had at least one hand up but it looked like Big John wasn’t even concerned about that one. The knockdown was hard and nick was almost flat on the ground.
What lift is Mark Hominick doing in that vid?
Hanging Snatch.

that wasnt my argument…my argument was he was defending(which he was,he was councious of what he was doin clearly wit headmovement) and lime said he was tryin to get up and floppin. that gif clearly shows he wasnt floppin like it was suggested.
After meditating in the mountains for several days, I’ve concluded that Fedor will beat Hendo. One is riding a win streak and the other is riding a losing streak, but I think Fedor takes this via TKO (GnP) because I can’t see Hendo getting knocked out (nor Fedor). Both of them are two of my favorites though.
edit: and it looks like Fedor wants this fight at 220lbs.
You know what else I found funny about that ep? Jake Shields working on his striking. Bamma ain’t going to use it in the ring so why bother. 
Ouch @ the detached retina. Shields is the living, breathing epitomy of a tick throw. :looney:
Need to watch the hype episodes for the fight, but GSP is just a master at making his opponents strike with him as a setup for his take downs.
If Shields wants this, his take down defense needs to be ready and working 100% for five rounds. Would be cool if he finds a way to null GSP’s take downs.
Jake should just start the match with a butt scoot.
:mad:
If your blueprint to beat GSP is by fluke rush, or by making him panic on the ground… *
Shields is doing the right things.
*The previous and only ways GSP has lost.
Serra was the grappler that was absolutely 0 threat standing.
So he bullrushed in throwing bombs.
Perfect gameplan.
Matt Hughes just kinda got lucky in his first meeting with GSP.
GSP went full panic mode on the ground.
I dont think Shields can pull either strat off.
I dont think he has the power or instinct to bull rush in.
I dont think GSP has the fear of Shields on the ground to make him panic.
:mad:
I think its smart.
He is gonna make more in a loss to Vargas then a win vs. Tyrone Woodley.
And then he can go back to MMA.
Also, he is very important to Strikeforce.
Threatening to leave increases his bargaining position.
Crazier still, if he wins vs Vargas, he could have a legit future in boxing, where he would make 10x more cash.
This part. Someone like Diaz would have to take whatever he gets from these greedy promoters rather than getting paid any sizeable sum of money on his name and MMA reputation alone. Even if you tried to argue that the MMA vs boxing angle would generate good gate and PPV numbers, the money would be going to a washed up former name like Vargas, rather than to Diaz.
Not everyone in boxing makes Pacquiao money. The inmates run the asylum in that sport, there’s a constant stream of fights that never happen because two idiots can’t agree on money. Pacquiao and Floyd not fighting isn’t an isolated case in boxing, it’s par for the course. There’s no way that Diaz gets any real money from these assholes.

Damn right he is. Once Zuffa says “fuck it let’s merge” he will get a giant pay day with GSP. Also his boxing is okay for MMA, horrible for actual boxing.
so i went back to mma today…it was all grappling for a fuckin hour and a half. havent trained since christmas…2 things. 1.i am still flexible as fuck…one dude put me in the electric chair sub and basically abonded it cause it doesnt do shit. 2.my cardio is still legit. but unfortnatly i got put to sleep in a sub…it was weird cause i remember it bein in but no where close to me needing to tap…and then i was in a damn dream. lol.
looks like nick wants silva, wow i hope dana will make this happened.
