I was rooting for Griffin, but will admit that I could have seen the decision go the other way.

That being said, Ortiz's ranting and biatching tirade after the match made me very glad that he lost. GTFO of here, you Hunington Beach Douche Hat.

Wow, Fark steals its headlines from Twitter now too?

the worst part about the whole thing was that before the decision was read tito said to forrest, "if you win, we can do a third one". It was like he wanted to lose so he could get another big pay day.

Some day, Griffin. Someday.

What?!? You mean.. a submitter submitted a headline that wasn't 100% original and non-derivative?

I do not understand the end of this headline. Can somebody translate that into English please?

This was a great card overall. The Griffin fight was fun, Ben Saunders is a scary scary beast, and even though Koscheck is a cocky bastard he sure is talented. Also, his choke was nice but I would have given Submission of the Night to Sotiropoulos, the setup to that armbar was a thing of beauty.

HAHA Kos's Oscar winning "I got poked in the eye" performance.....

That just screams "talent"

Subby forgot the #boring hashtag. Weak event. I laugh at those who payed $49.99 to witness it.

I heard that as "If you're in, we can do a third one."

Griffin Ortiz isnt a fight you would fix morons. Rashad Eevans Vs Rampage-Thats a big draw. A Lesnar/Carwin. Not two guys everyone has alot of questions about.

Agreed. His BJJ is SOO underrated. That transition from one sub to the next till one works, is BJJ instinct. You cant teach ppl to do it that fast. Geaorge is young too, we will see alot of him!

I thought last night was very fun. I didn't like that Kos match though. The mere sight of Kos fills me with nerd rage. Whether it's Hardy or GSP, I hope he gets smeared all over the mat.

Those shenanigans ruined that particular fight for me. Decent card overall but worth nowhere near 50 dollars. The best fight of the night wasn't even on pay-per-view.

tito and forest will get a big pay day with or without each other. use your head.

The ACTUAL eyepoke that was unmistakable that Kos threw at Rumble?
Or the may be a eyepoke where Rumbles hand grazes Kos's forehead that also involved the knee?

There was alot of illegal blows last night it seemed, more then at any other UFC event I've witnessed.

I agree...they should hold an event in Japan where the Nevada sanctioning body rules don't apply. It's been a while since I've seen a really good head stomping.

Americans just can't handle some things.....like kneeing a downed opponent...or ...well or a nipple slip for that matter.

As much as I think relaxed rules made the sport a better competition, it would have been a matter of time before some guy took a dozen knees to the head and was dead by the end of the day.

I was more-or-less commenting on the perception. The only difference between boxing and mixed martial arts in the United States is what socioeconomic class they get their thugs from.

If you're going to poke the eye, you're supposed to do it Chuck Liddell style and use your thumb.

Of course, once you do the Japan rules, you lose the elbows. This means a lot less nowadays that Ortiz isn't on top.

Strange decision, given the scoring that led to it(one judge gave Griffin all 3 rounds). UFC needs to find away to get around the poor judging. It's a fighters job to finish the fight, but it ends up marring the sport when they don't and crap like this happens on every card. Institute the 10 minute first round that Pride utilized and I imagine you'll get a lot less fights left up to the judges.

big sweaty men just laying on top of each other


/not interested

If you gave the first round to Tito, you are an mma idiot.

The second, possibly, if you forget that Forrest swept Tito and kneed him repeatedly.

Controversy my ass.

One of the first fights I have missed in a long time, but reading the live blog coverage, I don't see anyone who saw it as suspicious at all. One even noted that the crowd booed Tito for making excuses about an injury during training.

Yeah, you could complain about the last UFC headline fight being a little questionable, but I don't think I've met anyone who thought Tito won that fight.

This. I mean you would assume judging would get better over time but it seems like it has been worse lately. That final round between Forrest and Ortiz should've been a 10-8 round. Ortiz did nothing accept stay awake. Maybe make the third round longer or something. I wouldn't mind it going to the judges but it seems lately the judges are watching a different fight than what is on.

Tito landed a few good hits, took Forrest down a couple times but other than an elbow or 2 didnt manage to do anything spectacular when he had him down.
Forrest defended as well as he could have and in the stand up exchanges it was hardly a question who was winning the stand up game and the 3rd round wasnt even close. Tito barely threw a punch.

If you think Tito won that fight, go watch it again.

plus Tito is a putz of epic proportions and he could go die in a fire or something.

Both Cane and Lil Nog could take Griffin/Ortiz. What a waste of a main event (talent-wise).

blueknight: nope! just think it is boring! too much laying around.

then why in the holy blue fark did you come to this farking thread?

moron.

I'm one of the MMA nooBs--I'd like to watch it again. I thought Ortiz won the first round and that the second could have gone either way. I do think the third could have easily been 10-8, though.

As for laying around, there really wasn't much of that on this card, I didn't think. I was pretty pleased with it. Of course, I got it for free at the bar, so...

why shouldnt i? i think politics are boring as well, but still read about them. you should broaden your horizons then maybe your parents wont think they raised such a idiot

I can actually say that I have met someone who thought Tito won, but that's only because I went to high school with Tito. =D

I'm pretty sure there's more (accidental) nutshots now that they're illegal then way back in the bad 'ol days when they were allowed *.

/*I'm counting the epic Keith Hackney vs Joe Son as one incident.

reading about something is one thing...opening your fat face and making comments about things you know absolutely nothing about is a whole different ballgame, Sparky.

you think you know something about MMA because you watched a farking fight on Spike. You think it's all lay-and-pray. you're a farking moron.

Professional wrestling and Boxing started legit too. Now both have completely pre-determined outcomes. MMA will be next.

I'd like to think that if the Griffin vs Ortiz fight were fixed it would be more exciting to watch.


Why would MMA be next and not baseball, basketball, football....oh and Olympic curling too ?

All I cared about was seeing Phil Baroni getting beaten like a rented mule for three rounds.

listen douche, i tried to like it. my son does it, ITS BORING! i boxed golden gloves and in the marine corp. MMA moves too slow for my liking. my son is a 3rd degree black belt in karate and two time state champion wrestler in high school. he likes it, I THINK IT MOVES TOO SLOW. what is so hard to understand about that?

blueknight: my son does it

that doesn't mean you know a farking thing about MMA. You saw one farking fight between a couple of ground artists and now think you're some kind of farking expert on the subject.

you don't like it? great, wonderful. now that that's settled you can explain just why, if you don't like the farking sport, did you decide to pop into this thread just to tell everyone how much you dislike MMA.

I'm trying to better understand the mentality of a sports tab troll.



really, shut the fark up, you're out of your element.

Hey give him credit for at least spelling marine corps correctly


BTW blueknight you do know that they teach MCMAP now don't you ?
