The MMA Thread of 2009-Forever

[Xno Kappa]

Nah, that fight was one of the two I had correct son!

[Rhyis.]

Benson/Bader/Hunt/Shields/Okami/Hioki/Lauzon
Mitsuoka/Kid/Fukuda/Mizugaki
Tamura

The Barbarian, Pettis, Gomi, Mizugaki fucked me up. Kid I was just hopeful he would win.

All y'all niggas picking against Jesus incarnate make me laugh though.

how so mah nigga?

I had it like 4-1 for bendo. Didn't think it was close at all especially since those TD's by frankie were essentially useless.

[Blarg]

how did you nerds not pick pettis? i love lauzon as much as the next guy but for real pettis is on another level. especially when its not against someone who bases their entire game around wrestle fucking.

I had pettis too but if lauzon did win it would be in the first since he fights like he got shocked with a cattle prod before the first and then between rounds they give him sleeping pills

Fightmetric Edgar vs Henderson

In no known universe can you give that fight to Frankie.

[Rhyis.]

On a sidenote, where the fuck is Melendez in the UFC? Fuck this Strikefarce contract, get his ass in there against Bendo.

[Andalusian girls]

Fightmetric Edgar vs Henderson

In no known universe can you give that fight to Frankie.

especially considering Bendo's strikes had far more impact behind them

if anyone could judge that fight for Edgar it just shows how fucked up MMA judging is

Henderson did exponentially more damage throughout the course of the fight and came far closer to finishing

[Rhyis.]

That's just there for the people that think Edgar landed more... Cause he didn't. Ever.

[AidenCarby]

Gotta keep -some- talent on strikeforce, otherwise there's no money in having a AAA league.

[Hitoshura]

Can't wait for Pettis to finish Bendo this time, but I digress, kicking him half way across the octagon was pretty impressive already. I see Pettis winning again, people also seem to forget he has K.O power.

[Brill Weave]

I was sad to see Mizugaki lose. I really like that guy. No homo.

[Dimmauk]

I had it 48-47 Edgar. I felt he had the take-downs when he felt like it, Bendo's leg kicks besides that one up-kick were neutralized, and the better exchanges in the stand-up but I agree the shit was a toss up. With the ridiculously inconsistent judging though who knew what was going to happen. Bendo was just too massive and unlike Maynard he had the cardio to back it up.

LOL, Edgar got smashed.

[Brill Weave]

I wouldn't say he got smashed, but he definitely lost the fight.

I was sad to see Mizugaki lose. I really like that guy. No homo.

Nah son, full homo. Mizugaki is fucking awesome.

[Brill Weave]

Nah son, full homo. Mizugaki is fucking awesome.

Yet the guy gets little to no recognition at all. He became my boy after he went 5 rounds with Torres in his first fight in the WEC.

[Rhyis.]

Heard that. Miguel was beast mode during that time and nobody knew who the hell this Jap was, including me. When he went in there and went toe to toe I become a life longer.

Also, obligatory Mir commentary joke:

I love Miguel as much as the next guy, but Mir was just hilarious.

[Brill Weave]

Plus he refused to tap against Faber. And went to sleep as a result. Tough son of a bitch.

Even if he lost, gotta throw in the Slampage gif.

[Delirium]

Apparently Mizugaki got his win bonus, and I assume Joe Silva will treat it as a win regardless of the judges outcome.
