I think he'll get a contract for at least one fight if not more. Whether it makes sense or not he brings a lot of people to the sport. And Dana wants moneys.

 

[alr1ght]

Just watched it now. God, these fights are awful. I'm surprised Dana allowed Kimbo to fight in only the 3rd episode. If he loses, there goes a bunch of the audience.

The whole season is pretty much a throw away.
Rampage leaving takes away the coach vs coach gimmick and also hurts the show and the fights from the first two do not help.
Though you also have to remember, losing does not kick you out of the house and the main theme of this season will end up being everyone be an ass and try and prove something by starting shit with Kimbo.

If I weren't so lazy I'd grab some myself.

I was wondering what the big deal was until I saw the clock. I thought it was just the end of the round.

What cha gonna do when Fedormania runs wild on you? Brother!

 

[abstract alien]

Both of these pieces of shit should be kicked out the house.

Big dudes get winded early shocker.

 

[Archaix]

if Kimbo loses he will have even less relevance than before nobody will be clamoring to see him fight.

Kimbo has one thing going for him, in that he's fighting an actual fighter. He's not fighting an ex-NFL player or a walking tree, so even if he loses well it would be more impressive than either of the wins so far. If Nelson completely blows through him, though, then yeah it's gotta be over.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Big dudes get winded early shocker.

Yeah cardio on the show has always been shit. The format just isn't conducive to good cardio and using HWs just makes it that much worse.

First interview with Forrest! It's hilarious.

he seems really disturbed. Wouldn't be surprised if he up and quits fighting like Rampage.

 

[AstroLad]

interviewer handled it like a pro

 

[Stoney Mason]

he seems really disturbed. Wouldn't be surprised if he up and quits fighting like Rampage.

He will always be a big draw to the fanbase the way the UFC has marketed him and TUF but that loss to Silva will probably be career defining. It wasn't your normal "I got knocked out fight" where you can just rationalize about being caught which happens. He was utterly destroyed.

[Brian Fellows]

Rings in mma blow.

 

[Sinatar]

Yea ring's are not at all designed with grappling in mind, worst part about Japanese MMA.

 

[Gr1mLock]

rings are a staple of japanese mma...im an original pride fanboy sue me

 

[EraldoCoil]

Cages favor Wrestlers too much, i prefer rings to cages.

 

[Musashi Wins!]

I hate rings. Restarts the whole match if youre a grappler is retarded.

Men's Absolute Final
Bráulio Estima (Brazil) def. Xande Ribeiro (Brazil) via arm/shoulder injury

They tie up. Xande drops to a knee and Braulio pulls guard. Braulio rolls over looking for an armbar and nearly locks up an inverted triangle! Still trying for it as Xande defends from his knees. Now Braulio has the triangle cinched up tight, but Xande's snuck an arm inside to defend. That triangle isn't going anywhere though. Xande stands with Braulio still hanging off his front with the triangle. Braulio loosens up the triangle a bit - Xande shucks him off and follows down to half guard. Now the ref steps in to stop the fight... Xande seems to be holding his right arm. Yep, definitely an arm injury - Xande isn't moving the arm at all. Braulio is overjoyed, crying with happiness.

Estima wins $40,000 and the right to face Jacare at ADCC 2011.

[EraldoCoil]

that Flying armbar Magalhaes landed on Pe De Pano was fucking sick.

 

[nightez]

If the fights from the first two episodes are an indicator of the quality of fighters this season. Then I don't think Kimbo has much to worry about.


...

 

[nightez]

I'm actually excited about tuning in moreso for Rampage's horrible corner advice than anything else. Next week: "Punch him! You gotta hit him! Hit him! Use your hands to punch him!!"

Granted, sometimes repeating the same thing is warranted, like when you're cornering Andy Wang.

Lol the classic was when he was repeatedly shouting "Do what ya godda do!" during Wes' fight. That wasn't helpful at all...

 

[Dagless M.D.]

I'm impressed with Gunnar Nelson, guy's only 21, fights at 170 and he placed 4th in the absolute. Definitely a name to watch.

Found this, I remember Bas saying he refused ground training. wut.

Big dudes get winded early shocker.

Not because of being winded, but because of lacking the will to win.

 

[polyh3dron]

Fuck there was a K-1 card yesterday and no one said anything about it on GAF.. WTF

 

[Ninja Scooter]

the internet Left 4 Dead boycotters are going to bring down this PPV. The ratings will be terrible.

Not the two most inspiring fights to headline in my book.

 

[Bishman]

Kimbo fights this week! Who else is excited?!

 

[Fifty]

:lol

Not the two most inspiring fights to headline in my book.

I'm looking forward to the main event, but Coleman hasn't belonged on a PPV poster in about 7 years.

 

[agrajag]

WTF, Griffin lost it.

 

[Fun Factor]

I'm looking forward to the main event, but Coleman hasn't belonged on a PPV poster in about 7 years.

He should beat Oritz unless he gets crippled before the fight. Still two (former) headliners is good enough for me.

 

[Sinatar]

.... yea.... he's totally not on juice. Good god. :lol

 

[Gr1mLock]

it was like yesterday that chuck was force feeding him foam core wrapped in leather..and now his pecs have their own gravity field..i feel bad for aerts..that was a grueling fight...there's also rumors that K1 is going to hold the tourney every other year now.

 

[Always-honest]

.... yea.... he's totally not on juice. Good god. :lol

:lol :lol ... oh man.... i laugh my ass of when i see him running...
to bad for Aerts though. huge Aerts fan.. he's just getting too old fot this shit.

the forrest interview felt weird.. he was trying hard to be funny but .. i dont know..
he looks a bit broken.

 

[painey]

Dan Hardy will now face Mike "Quick" Swick at UFC 105.. shit, he gunna lose.

 

[funk0ar]

Kimbo fights this week! Who else is excited?!

I am! I don't know if the other guy's any good, but he seems very full of himself and has a huge fucking gut. I hope Kimbo wins.

 

[Musashi Wins!]

Big Gut, aka Roy Nelson, was the favorite to win the show. However, I'm starting to think the surprise of the show is that Kimbo ends up kicking his ass.
