LOL Segal is stalking Jon Jones.
“I don’t know how he got my number” - Jones

Wouldn’t let him into his dressing room, for fear Segal was spying on him for Machida

I was going to throw a SRK MMA match but now the way mf’ers are going at each other, I’m thinking of turning into some Grappler Baki type shit. :looney:

Pablo_the_Mex · September 30, 2011, 7:33pm

This is close enough: http://www.gsubx.com/ October 22

I’m going to be there, and if you know anyone up in the Northwest that trains and wants to throw down tell them to sign up! Weigh ins are the day before, so you can try to do your best GSP impersonation and see me at 145 lolol.

Looks like a good card.

I got my tickets for UFC 139, $225.
Section 126 Row 12

These seats cost around $70 at a good Strikeforce show at the same venue, triple the price.
I paid about $150 for Pride Final Conflict 2006 at Saitama Arena, for probably a better view of the action.
I don’t usually go for expensive seats for shows in the cage, because you end up watching it above on the screen anyway. Cage gets in the way, cameraman gets in the way, shit like that.

LOL he’d be lucky if he could become a poor mans version of Vitali Klitschko. People tend to forget Badr is a dumbass, with not too good of headmovement, and a bad jaw. His movement on strikes isn’t too bad. But defensively it’s horrible.

Segal is the #1 troll in MMA and it is absolutely hilarious. I love reading fan responses to him they crack me up.

anon26555290 · October 1, 2011, 6:35pm

Dude Mauro Renallo is terrible! Goldberg is a bit of a cornball but hes leagues better than Mauro.

Kaori · October 1, 2011, 6:51pm

I wonder if Jones will become the MMA Mayweather

Strike_Prime · October 1, 2011, 7:36pm

IMO, Mauro’s greatest line was during the Hendo/Babalu fight: “A RIGHT HAND!!! ANOTHER RIGHT HAND ABADABADABA ITS OVER!!!”

Hmm, where the fuck has Heath Herring been??

Rampage · October 1, 2011, 10:14pm

I believe he said a while ago that he was pretty pissed with his current contract and that he was just basically waiting for it to expire because he didn’t want to take his last few fights. I think he’s more into acting or something now if I remember correctly?

Pablo_the_Mex · October 1, 2011, 11:33pm

I remember seeing a vid of him playing in a poker tournament lol!

maxx · October 1, 2011, 11:44pm

i remember him talking about acting…im sorry, lol at the that shit.

Calibur:

I just like my commentators semi professional. How can you take MMA seriously if the announcers don’t. Bas stutters, sings on air (poorly) has problems keeping up with modern MMA and doesn’t really care. He can’t really refer to any fight that doesn’t involve himself or someone from his generation.

When he announces he doesn’t really know who the fighters are or what they are good at. The best he does nowadays is keep up with the history of a young fighters team, or anecdotal evidence on their equipment like the effects of long spats, shoes or Muay Thai shorts in a fight. He is best at analyzing striking but he is barely better than Mike Goldberg at that.while Pat Militech blows him out of the water. He knows grappling somewhat but he says dumb shit like “achilles locks are just a pain submission.” When a submission is being applied he starts coaching. He doesn’t sound good and he often teaches wrong, or at least speaks in absolutes which is also wrong. Joe Rogan does the same thing except he does it better, clearer, with less obvious fuck ups. Bellator’s Jimmy Smith is excellent at analyzing grappling and again, Pat Militech is awesome. Mauro Renallo could do the play-by-play better but he doesn’t have the street cred. Frank Shamrock is better than Bas at analyzing grappling even if he won’t stop using old catch wrestling phrases to sound cool.

Basically, Bas Rutten has fallen behind in a sport that has progressed really rapidly. Any desire that anyone has to hear him commentate comes strictly from nostalgia.

Ya’ll wanna listen to your favorite drunk crazy uncle? fine.

I say fuck the drunk crazy uncle!

(not litterally you pervs)

clearly you didnt watch the last strikeforce card…frank was horrible…or drunk. i honestly cant figure out which.

Jerishow · October 2, 2011, 6:26am

Oh look… Pat Barry lost… again. Who on earth could have foreseen this unexpected turn of events?

I knew Cruz would have some problems standing up if his opponents actually attacked him and not let him dance around them like a complete asshat.

anon26555290 · October 2, 2011, 9:20am

lmao get the fuck outta here Struve won?

KimuraLOX · October 2, 2011, 7:42pm

Ugh, just absorb Strikeforce already Dana, lmao.

beerMEorFEARme · October 3, 2011, 12:14am

They need to absorb all the men of strikeforce and let strikeforce be the WMMA banner
