Hardy was never ever going to tap. GSP dominated.

**Krandor** · 2010-03-27 23:36

Hardy is fucking insane, The armbar was one thing but how he survived that kimura I have no idea, he has ligament damage on both arms for sure.

**Baelorn** · 2010-03-27 23:37

Hardy was going to let his arm break before tapping....Amazing.

**Rhyis.** · 2010-03-27 23:40

He's going to regret it by tomorrow.

***Blarg*** · 2010-03-27 23:40

Hardy may have also counted on GSP not really wanting to break an arm, if GSP went all frank mir on Hardy that arm would be broken.

**Firedemon** · 2010-03-27 23:46

Seemed like GSP was toying with him all 5 rounds like he WANTED to get a submission.

He did, he was pretty disappointed that he had to win by decision.

Very disappointing to see GSP go all five rounds against Hardy. Then again, I thought that the he let go of the kimura, but who knows.

UFC has always used the prelims as filler on the PPV, its only noticeable now because of Spike showing the occasional set of prelims. If a match ends short, they gotta milk it some how. It sucks to have a rerun of a fight so soon, but its better than watching an extra 5~10 minutes of hype imo.

Really excited for Carwin v. Lesner.

I also had the feeling that st pierre did not want to break something. On both those submission attempts it seemed he could have done a lot more damage than he did but he was counting on a tap out. I really wish I would have saw the old GSP with the killer instinct. If someone doesn't want to tap, then you just have to break their arm. Either way GSP dominated and glad to see him back in good shape after an injury.

I just wished he caused some more ground and pound damage like he did vs fitch/penn/thiago. He really didn't throw too much on the ground. Hopefully next fight he really goes out to hurt someone

Only if he has someone other than Jackson in his corner... all Jackson told him was to stay safe the whole time and try to finish it in the last 30 seconds of each round. Not much time for a killer instinct in 30 seconds....

I only ended up being able to watch the GSP fight, does anyone know where to find a video of the Carwin/Mir?

GSP, boring champion or most boring champion?

Also, Dan Hardy: Wolverine or Superman?

How the fuck did GSP fail to finish him twice in two perfect sub situations?

**Hitoshura** · 2010-03-28 02:57

Anyone know of a link yet?

GSPs hips were on his shoulder, not his elbow on the armbar, HARDLY a perfect sub situation, and Hardy knew that. The second sub was hard to tell, but Hardy was rolling in the direction of it for a good portion, but it was definitely worse than the armbar.

Carwin vs Mir

I don't think that gif is actually from the fight because carwin used his left hand and not the right.
