dammit i was watching that stupid trader joe music video and missed the choke! damn you gaf and your attention taking threads! :lol
 
wow, that looks to be one of the least comfortable of submissions to be in (not that any of them are comfortable). First time I've seen that. He slept quickly.
 
Shit ref

edit: Yeah, you don't have to be a BJJ practitioner to recognize when a choke is locked in. It should have been obvious that Leben was tapping.

Oh I agree it was a tap, but Leben's whole body convulsed when he went out. On the replay it seemed like the ref was about to pull Rosholt off, but Leben's legs swung around in what looked to be an escape attempt. He backed off and then realized what was actually going on.

Leben tapped twice as opposed to the customary three. Maybe that's why. Still should've stopped it though, Leben wasn't getting out of that.
 
glad this event is turning out to be pretty fun. didn't have a feeling it would go all decisions but the first fight scared me a bit. btw make sure you watch this next fight guys.

There isn't anything wrong with decisions.

nice side choke
 
Damn :lol :lol :lol :lol a seven second stoppage that was probably a bit late.



edit: Nevermind, not late. The guy wasn't out, he was just an idiot when it comes to defending himself.
 
lol so which ko was better? the marquardt ko or this one? i hope they give it to these fighters since they broke a record and they need the money more.

Duffee got what Rogan's calling the fastest KO in UFC history, so I'm thinking KO of the night goes to him. :lol
 
couture looking pretty good. although i still thin big nog will take it!

How are you guys getting hte results ahead of time?
this was a prelim fight that aired earlier in the night. guess they needed to fill some time since the past two main event fights ended kinda quick.

The bigger names have started getting favoured of late when it comes to bonuses.
