Right, that's why I posted it. That's what he likes to claim. He's might be the biggest douche bag in the sport. He loves talking shit about other people. Watching him cry tonight will be fun.

Second event in a row that gym had a fighter in the main or co main event that couldn't make weight.

The "champ" also wasn't able to make weight don't forget. Technically that shouldn't have a championship fight. Larry Holmes level? You gotta be trollin. Don't forget he lost the fight before he fought for the belt. That's a McGregor level champ when losing earns you a title shot. He beat rumble last night, a split decision vs Gus, and he dry humped an old middle weight with 2 days notice for 3 rounds. He's old and fat like Holmes that's about it.

I haven't seen the fights yet, but from what I've read Rumble tried to wrestle DC, which is horrible idea for anybody.
Mousasi vs Weidman I seen this fight what a shit show that was. The UFC should consider not going back until they get their shit straight. There was the weigh in issue, the implant problem, the legal knee that they gave weidman time to recover from then ended up stopping the fight, and last event Holm gets tagged after the bell in multiple rounds and nothing was done. Get your shit together NY.

They need to clarify that rule.

At the time the knee was thrown the hand was on the ground. So is it at the time of impact where is the hand or where is the hand when the strike is thrown.

To me, the intent of the rule is to protect the fighter being struck, which I feel would mean that when the hands are on the ground, if you throw a strike, that should be illegal.

Otherwise you end up with mofos wanting to hurry and put their hands down at the time of the impact, making legal strikes illegal?

Seems like a stupid rule and we saw the outcome of implementation last night... really sad.

Seems like "Rumble" had his mind up that he was done, which maybe he was ready to lose, maybe even counted on it. Made no sense his strategy, and his coaches bailed on him at the interview, it all seemed really odd.

Remember when you said this couple pages back? I tried telling you guys. And then @Bublonichronic was like yup thats the truth thats whats going to happen. Actually almost all of you guys said this.
Please just listen to me next time.
Actually I never speculated on the fight, by if I would have I would have said D.C. Dry humps him for 5 rounds, I can't wait for jones to beat the piss out of him again you can quote me on that after the next fight

I think they made it confusing. Most of the time the one throwing the strike can't really see the other guy's hands. If you're on your feet you should be able to be kneed regardless where your hands are.

Jacare vs Whittaker this weekend should be a scrap.Big fan of both guys but I hope whittaker can pull off the upset.
Both have a lot at stake and a lot to lose. Those usually have the most entertaining results! Looking forward to it!

Are you a fan of McGregor yet? Your thoughts on him v. Mayweather?

Neither Jacare or Whittaker have much to lose in the UFC. Win or Lose neither guy will be fighting for a belt. Same with Moussasi and Romero they all come behind a 50 year old henderson and a welterweight that retired 2 years ago.

Whittaker is on his way up and if Jacare gets a loss from him he'll stall his entire career while it's at it's peak! If Whittaker loses he'll be back at square one. Both guys have a ton riding on this fight!
