OT: The Official UFC Chat Thread

[escobar929]

lots of good fights last night

Lawrence... oh shit

Kampmann is a beast, tough as nails

[san~man]

Holloway was watching Rocky and "hit(ting) him in the body"

[Garduna]

Donno how many of you guys knew that it was the finale of tuf but yeah, it happened lol.

Lawrence got a lot better with his takedown defense. Stills see a lot of holes in it tho so he'll need to keep on improving in that department. His left hook is really good tho. Nice jab high kick combo. Cofer's cheeks went SNAP! Love hearing Dana under the announcer's voice and bumper graphics before the commercial break when he spoke to Lawrence. "Holy shit, that was beautiful. That was fucking great man."

Holloway vs Schirlling. The only thing I Could think of was Holloway could have fnished the match on so many occasions but he was too just so darn cautions...... sigh. Kid's young and got a bright future.

Olivera does it again. D'arch style grip choke. His standup is more crisp as well now.

Madness! Feel good story came true for Michael Chiesa Seriously thought he'd be in trouble with the standup as it was seen but as soon as he got back trip and great foot tangle, it was the beginning of the end.

Jake, kid you need to learn how to survive a full 3-5 rounds bro, you go no cardio >_> Kampmann seriously seems like he needs to get bloodied before he gets shit together haha.

I am sure all of yall noticed that jaw warm up that silva did prior to his bout with Cain. I thought he was warming it up so he can get properly KTFO but no...
This is what yall saw


but this is what was really going on

I'm a big fan of Silva but even I thought that was out of character.

If you haven't seen his documentary "Like Water", I highly recommend it.

The doc starts from end of the Maia fight and finishes before the Sonnen fight begins.

After the Maia fight Silva has delivered every time.

I think Olivera can improve on his stand up, as it seems he stands a bit too upright with his chin hanging out. To me, he got hit a lot, and if Brookins had more power he might have been in trouble.

AS Like Water was a very good doc. Every mma fan should check it out.

LOL @ Bigfoot gifs

i agree, at times I thought Brookins would pull it off and get the KO, seemed like it was there for him, he just couldnt take advantage

I wanna see Olivera against someone higher in the rankings, maybe Poirier

[escobar929]

I forgot to mention but the worst ref in the history of MMA struck again on friday, w/ Kim Winslow calling another fight after a so called verbal tap, cause he "screamed", when in fact he was 10 sec away from getting out, felt bad for Prince. Great fight up to that point

[Motif]

I watched that "Like Water" documentary. Well put together in my opinion. Still don't like him though.

He goes back a while. He was fighting Vale Tudo in Brazil well before MMA started making the circles. He also comes out of Chute Boxe.

I'll always cheer for Wand even though it's sometimes hard to watch him now. I keep longing for the day he learns to throw some straight punches (mixed in with his gorilla punch haymakers, of course). Vitor would've cleaned him up if they had fought, though. Franklin is a bit better of a match for him IMO.

yea, its not the best match up but I think its gonna motivate BJ and hopefully he pulls of the KO or sub

[Motif]

BlowJob will get hammered by the young phenom into another retirement.

[escobar929]

Brian Stann injured, out against Lombard.... sigh

Hey hey hey, easy killer. If a motivated BJ shows up, he'll beat Rory. If the all too often seen lazy BJ shows up this kid will kill him.

...and calm yo nerves, I'm not a BJ nuthugger, but when he's focused you've gotta admit he's hard to beat.

[Garduna]

Rory vs BJ, Big news I'm calling this 3rd round Rory :P

Anyone else notice all the recent injuries lately..... it's getting pretty ridiculous.

[Garduna]

Update on more injuries and match shuffling:

Hector Lombard vs Tim Boetsch at UFC 149 and Shogun will "murder" Brandon Vera at UFC on Fox4

this one seems a lil funny to me, an hour after Hector Lombard calls out Bisping, he pulls out of the fight w/ Boetsch. things that make you go hmmmmm....

glad Shogun got an easy fight, wanna see him back winning

Shogun needs to KTFO out vera. If he loses or goes to a decision, I'd say that his time as almost run out :/

Apparently Bisping is also on the injured list now. I doubt it's anything major tho since it is undisclosed.

I love BJ but Rory is too strong.
