Wow she lost a lot of weight.
Shes cut before when she was getting booed a lot at BJJ comps. She went down 30-40 pounds and she started getting worked so she put it all back on. She's not technical at all and wins fights by size.



Dern would have finished anyone her size with that triangle and Gabi just larged her way out of it.

I dropped off of TUF after like episode 3 because it was quite bland. I was curious how the fights were going though and looked it up, and holy shit Pettis team is 6-0. There is a real chance they go 8-0, since apparently Torres got moved over to Pettis team to replace an injured fighter. She was originally ranked #3 so it seems like she has a legit shot. So what happens if they pull off 8-0? Do they swap half the team over to Melendez so he can keep coaching?

Pretty much. At least that's what they've done in the past.

Maybe this is my ignorance showing, but if you don't want to fight someone 100+ lbs than you, can't you just not compete at an open weight?

If you a bitch...
Yup. Caio Terra, Rafa Mendes, what a bunch of bitches...

I have a lot of respect for the black belt women who insist on competing against Gabi even when they know what will happen. Last year Bea Mesquita ruptured her hamstring in the process of getting Hulk Smashed. Those chicks tougher than most of the men.

It would be a little bit better if Gabi was humble at all but shes not.

Go to around the 6:55 mark. This is what happens when she can't finish a purple belt. She said something along the lines of respect the belt, basically how dare you try hard against me. Shes a disrespectful cheating cunt.

So every fight has ended in a finish so far in Australia, good stuff.
I'm watching gifs. They're not just finishes, but badass highlight reel finishes. Awesome. I'll edit in any more as well. They're listed from top of the card down. Card is now 8/8 on finishes. If anyone goes the distance without it being a total slobberknocker they're gonna look like real assholes=P

edit: 10/10, Rockhold and Bisping better not fuck this up=P

edit2: That's it, 11 fights 11 finishes. That was fucking awesome.

Luke Rockhold vs. Michael Bisping

Ross Pearson vs. Al Iaquinta

Robert Whittaker vs. Clint Hester

Soa Palelei vs Walt Harris

Jake Matthews vs. Vagner Rocha

Anthony Perosh vs. Carlos Augusto Inocente Filho

Sam Alvey vs. Dylan Andrews

Louis Smolka vs. Richie Vaculik

Chris Clements vs. Vik Grujic

Daniel Kelly vs. Luke Zachrich

Marcus Brimage vs. Jumabieke Tuerxun


Decent stream here.


edit: Dana just posted that McCall is sick and looks like he might not be able to fight on the Brazil card.

Soa Palelei got fuckinghugesince his last fight.

Damn this card is awesome. I have no idea how Whittaker, who got punch TKOd by Wonderboy of all people, just lit Clint "Giant Black Man" Hester the fuck up, from a weight class below.

Edit: Holy shit this card. Still all finishes, Iaquinta just outboxed Pearson, I did not see that coming.

Yeah I did not expect that. Looked really good finishing him, very accurate.


edit: Most predictable cut ever. Bisping had a nasty gash there from like 2 days ago.

edit2: Bisping needs to retire, you can't fight professionally with one eye.

Oh yeah, 1 arm Guillotine, lol.

Edit: Holy shit, how is Dan Hardy taller than Bisping?

Best part is it wasn't a bunch if squash matches, there were some real upsets there. Going by bets on the MMA tracker(usually more accurate than straight betting lines) Iaquinta was a fairly bit underdog, Whittaker was a slight one, Alvey was a big one, and Daniel Kelly was a big one(though not much action there).

Really just a flat out awesome card top to bottom.

Bummed I wasn't able to watch the card. Had to have some quality time with the kids and wife. Sounds like I need to go and download it.

Watching the gif of Bisping get schooled makes me happy

JackSlack plus the best event of the year? GOD DAMNED RIGHT I'M POSTING!

Luke Rockhold Tops the UFCs Night of 11 Finishes | FIGHTLAND

Coming into the third round, Smolka had been bloodied up and looked decidedly below par in exchanges. Suddenly, as the two broke apart following an exchange, Smolka stepped in with a lead leg side kick, to the dome. It seems like I'm constantly talking about applications of the side kick in MMA, and they keep getting more and more absurd.
So I didn't even notice it last night, but Rockhold landed a little Brazilian kick on Bisping in there. The sexiest headkick in the game.Very start of this clip.

InsideMMA last night had a feature on the"martial art" of Tricking. That's fucking retarded. That shit is gymnastics and dancing. Fuck you, insideMMA.

If I was a fighter I would never agree to go down and fight in Brazil. Unless you finish the fight you aren't going to win. Sucks for Jouban
