[Team Bisping]

In the words of @MelE5150 ....'Rainbow me again! I double dare ya!' haha

@BirdWatcher basterd! haha

 

[MoomBah]

Nice transitions here.

29-28 Nijem

 

[BackOffWarchild]

Round 3: Nijem comes out and hurts Holbrook again, and AGAIN takes Holbrook down for no reasons. Holbrook immediately transitions into a kimura with Nijem on his back, then transitions to a deep kneebar. Holbrook transitions to attempted heel hook when Nijem rolls, Nijem escapes, and takes Holbrook's back. Holbrook is gassed, Nijem has his back with both hooks in. Nijem landing hammerfists with one hook in now. Two minutes left and Nijem is riding Holbrook's back, landing decent GNP. Holbrook stands, then tries to drop Nijem on his face. Nijem's face is ugly and workmanlike, absorbs the impact. Nijem still on his back. Holbrook puts his scrotum on Nijem's jaw, but Holbrook fails to attack with the kimura while being ridden from behind.

BROKEBACK REEBOK WITH THESE SHORTS.

Nijem punching Holbrook's kidneys from the back like my little sister, and the fight ends.

30-27 Nijem.

This is awesome.

 

[Fiend]

Teabag??

 

[La Paix]

Appreciate all the PbP @BackOffWarchild

 

[BackOffWarchild]

Someone in Holbrook's corner is bald with a serious pornstache. I imagine he drove himself to the event in a van that says "Free Candy".

 

[MoomBah]

WOOW!!

 

[Zeph]

Wow, judges scored sub attempts highly.

 

[Team Bisping]

wow.

 

[BackOffWarchild]

HOLY FUCKING ROBBERY BATMAN

 

[bcolflesh]

I need to see those cards - horrible.

 

[MoomBah]

That was a bad one. That was a 30-27 fight.

 

[BackOffWarchild]

Rogan goes into instant damage control, asking the fan to cheer the fighters despite the bullshit decision, fans respond with boos. TAKE YOUR ONNIT T-SHIRTS AND FUCK OFF, ROGAN.

 

[BackOffWarchild]

Such a robbery, Goldie almost breaks into laughter calling Holbrook "1-0 inside the Octagon".

Thanks Hoss. I had to go outside for a smoke

 

[Zeph]

That wasn't that bad. Holbrook was close to finishing those sub a couple of times. Robberies are only when one fighter dominates, but doesn't get the nod, like Diego vs Pearson.

 

[bcolflesh]

That wasn't that bad.

When the person who didn't win the fight, wins the fight - that's bad.

I feel like spamming failed submissions (Holbrook's footwork and leg control while attempting chokes was atrocious) isn't much different from spamming failed takedowns. None were close to finishing. I want to see aggressive grappling rewarded, but I could only see giving Holbrook round 2, and that's only if you ignore him almost getting KO'd to start the round.

Different strokes, I guess. I can see where you're coming from, and you're right. It WASN'T as bad as Diego/Pearson. But I feel it was wrong, and very wrong at that.

It depends on what you score more highly, close submission attempts or positional control.

 

[OhWhopDaChamp]

Come on Krause Show Me!!!

 

[MoomBah]

How bout damage and takedowns? You ignoring those?

 

[BackOffWarchild]

Fun fact: Daron C. used to fuck "Hex", the former-stripper from the failed FOX show "Utopia". She would hilariously threaten to have him beat up other guys who didn't want to listen to her bossy shit.
