I think it’s safe to say that Akiyama doesn’t remember the past three days after that…
Seriously though, I think Belfort vs. Chael would be a really good fight.
Sexyama :(, Gotta say props to Belfort he came out and just whooped him. The people over on sherdog are saying Akiyama should get cut (a few fans say one more chance…at WW) the problem with that is his cardio was already pretty bad looking his last 3 fights.
Rashad looked pretty good the only “close” moment was the guillotine attempt after that it was over. That was such a nasty knee that he landed it was crazy in slo-mo watching Tito’s face after he got hit.
Can’t wait for the next ppv Okami v Spider, really psyched!
Japanese fighters need to get over all this “prove our fighting spirit!” bullshit. They think too much with their balls and not their brains, and hey news flash: they’re Asian. Their balls ain’t that big. Akiyama likes to get in their and trade, but thinking he could take a shot from Vitor and be able to swing back is just ridiculous. Fight like this, he needs to go in there and try to toss Vitor around a bit, not like that’d be easy but still. He had ZERO chance in the standup, and the only one in the whole building who didn’t know it was him, and anyone else that’s Japanese and equally delusional.
But hey, he’s got a cool nickname. Go get em next time, champ.
p.s. war Rashad.
p.p.s. Rock is right he really does need to walk out to “Hate Me Now” next time.
p.p.p.s. Tito sucks. Fuck that dude.
they all read hajime no ippo
Fuck the haters.
Give Rashad his title shot.
does tito get some leniency for a “short notice favor to the ufc” fight? havent seen the fight yet though.
Time for Rashad to get that title back.
you do realize for akiyama to get a takedown he’d have to be able to weather belfort’s stand up enough to get ahold of him, right? it seemed obvious to me that he was just waiting for an opening to grab a hold of vitor, but it never came and he got laid out.
What justification could he possibly have to make manties illegal, other than he doesn’t want homophobes to go “YOO DEEZ NIGGAZ IZ GAY”?
I thought it was actually pretty funny, in an “Oh… yeah, that’s pretty awkward” sorta way.
it was funny in a gross out factor kind of way.
but i think the whole “mma is gay LMAO” kind of talk makes those speedos illegal. those people get to run their mouths enough just watching a normal mma match. adding speedos and bleach blond hair doesnt help. apparently the guys on sherdog are saying his wang actually popped out in the match too.
that alone is grounds for making them illegal.
man tito gassed after that failed takedown attempt…unless he got hit with something i didn’t see. and DAMN…that was a beastly knee…but really chilling out like your waiting to give rashad a bj what do you expect is going to happen. he would have been in a better postion if he just dropped back to the mat
rofl, if his shit popped out during the match, he had to be wearing the worst strap in history. I figure that’s really the only justification - to prevent people that think MMA is gay from saying “See? MMA is gay”. Funnily enough, B-hop was in the crowd last night - he was the one that was calling MMA gay porn for a while right?
You strike thee with a knee, you Sir have no honour!
He hit Tito with a Focus Attack Lvl 3. Followed up with big damage.
lmao…
maybe they offer more range and mobility
Wow, you can almost see the steam coming off of his head. He’s genuinely upset about those shorts.
good card sans the shorts lol. Rashad looks good, should put up a decent fight to JJ or Page.
Damn that knee to the liver that tito took on his knees was just brutal.
seriously, Tito was done after the crucifix and that beat down was just good shit.
now we’ll probably get Rashad vs. Rampage/bones hopefully by january
Hmm so who does Vitor fight next at middleweight? Stann maybe

Honestly, as an Asian, why are so many asians so damn BAD at MMA? At least in the bigger leagues.
You could say Akiyama was fighting someone top tier, but shouldn’t have Akiyama been top tier to fight him as well?
Well what is it? That asians don’t tend to cut down for their weight class. Height / reach disadvantage. That lots tend to stick with traditional martial arts, so there’s a less concentration / fewer numbers of asians in MMA? Just wanna know why.
