The MMA thread

Yeah 4/4 again for me too.

Annoyed actually because I must have swapped Jacare and Okami about 5 times.

I don't think Glover will beat Jones.
 
I did the fantasy league for the 1st time, so I guess it is impossible to catch up.

Looks like I got 6-2 though
 
Just watched the opening episode of TUF.

Confident this will be the most entertaining season ever. And feck what a first fight it's gonna be!
 
Just watched Jones v Matyushenko, Jones looks so different in his stance and so many things, he's so much better now. And of course he just destroyed the poor guy. Scary.

Well he's fighting someone next who will be a match, I mean should be, I mean might be, ah feck it Jones will hammer him.
 
Fantastic 'Flair flop' from Rolles Gracie on the WSOF card last night...

I used to like Ronda Rousey but after watching the first couple of episodes of TUF, she's a complete fecking dickhead.


Heard a few people saying this and think it's ridiculous really. Charismatic and intelligent woman but when it comes down to business, she's emotionally invested and put's everything into it. Her hearts in it and clearly that get's the better of her at times, certainly not a bad thing though.

Crying all the time is not the sign of a charismatic and intelligent woman and saying crap like "She's gonna pay for every smile she smirks today" is childish pro-wrestling nonsense. She's a crazy person.

It makes a very good fighter (I have no doubt she'll batter Tate again) but she's mad as a bucket of frogs.

I take it that 'crying all the time' is based on her crying for 2-3 minutes in one episode? Right, okay.

Have you followed Rousey for long? And nobody said crying makes somebody charismatic or intelligent. Reread what I actually said, because you seem to be failing to actually understand the point I was trying to make a basing your entire view of somebody on one episode of TUF.

Agree with that, she's just unbelievably competitive. The shit-talking seems to be part of a siege mentality rather than an attempt to get inside her opponent's heads. At least she actually gives a shit unlike most of the coaches on TUF.

I respected her as a fighter too but she's coming off as a bitch. You can be competitive and stay humble. She was upset when Tate celebrated the win...what an idiot

Yeah, I like AG's game, interesting fighting style and seemingly a smart fighter, but it's hard to see him even managing to take him to a decision.

Has Jones ever really been hit in the head, even? There was Brandon Vera's illegal upkick...maybe Rashad tagged him?
