UFC Seattle Live Discussion - Sat 2/22

[Papi Chingon]

That was odd, how far into round 3 was it when that would took place?

1:18 I think?

I found it disturbing how Herzog was trying to coach everyone what to call the fight.. almost like he was catering to Vegas with the way he wanted to force it into the 4th round. That was shady! Herzog should be investigated for the way he tried to manipulate that whole situation.. he made it sound like Cejudo was going to lose if Cejudo didn’t get up before 5 minutes. He then goes on to do all that weird corrupt sht at the end to doctor the result..

About a minute left.

ok
sounds like a finish 3rd round thing, and not a halfway thru the fight 2:30 left in round 3 thing

Last minute 15 seconds of the round.

It wasn't on the level

He seemed to think the foul wasn't that bad and was going apply his will to adjust/manipulate. Which isn't the rules at all. The rule is you foul you take points.

I think Henry bullshitted figuring his eye would clear up. When he was in his corner he said he couldn't see and the cutman was like "Oh, shit. Your eye is bleeding"

Then when he was talking to Faber in private in the corner he’s like telling him in a sneaky way that if Cejudo had stayed down he’d have had to call it a dq, told Faber like he did him a favor by going to.the cards.. that sht was weird af!!

Yadong was beating his ass. This way Yadong gets a win, instead of a NC.

I think he wanted out, but poking a guy twice in a fight, and once in both eyes at once, deserves points taken, and I think he would have continued.
Poking with no points taken has to stop, or, it will continue to influence fights heavily.

I had money on yo Dong though, not mad at all. Just giving my take on the way it played out.

I think he wanted out

I don't think he's stupid enough to pick that as his out.

I'm glad. I'm not sure Cejudo needs to have another fight in the UFC with high level competition. Dude's accomplishments are amazing, but age has caught up with him. He relied on his speed and his stamina, and neither appear to be there anymore. It's his 3rd loss in a row, but those losses were to 2 champs and this roided up chineser. Give him someone outside of the top 10 if he wants another fight.
