UFC 173: Barao vs. Dillashaw (May 24, 2014)

[JIBBBY]

Great sneaky Darse.. Mitch Clark!!!!!!!

[Dwil125]

That's so weird. That doesnt even work

[Thor4140]

This is what i think tonight. I like Ferguson. Big size advantage. Barao has no shot of losing unless it is a freak thing. Dilishaw isnt the guy. He is a tough kid but that is about it. I will give him this tho. He will do a lot better than Eddie Wineman. Lastly Hendo is one of my fav fighters but lately he gets hit and kind of duks out of the fight like a fighter that doesn't like getting hit anymore. Lets be honest his win over Showgun was pretty lucky. I loved Comier until i saw the weigh in and couldn't believe how close the size was. Hendo is notoriously fighting guys way bigger then him. For this alone i can't risk that high line with Comier. I was really thinking about it until i saw the weigh in. No way i take Hendo tho. Oh and if it was a five round fight i would absolutely love Lawler over Ellenberger. Robbie is the better boxer and a lot tougher guy. Sad part tho is in a three rounder he could get taken down two of the rounds but his takedown defense is pretty good. If this was five he wouldn't have to worry much about the takedowns in round four and five cause Ellenberger would be shot by then.

Sure it does, if you have skinny arms, and sink and lock it up tight and especially when your opponent is tired and breathing hard..

[Dwil125]

Sure it does, if you have skinny arms, and sink and lock it up tight and especially when your opponent is tired and breathing hard..

Not really, not from that position. From front headlock or from half guard (top) yeah. I'm guessing you don't even roll though so I'm probably just wasting my time..

[Dwil125]

Also it has nothing to do with them breathing hard, its a blood choke.

In what world was Iaquinta tired? Clarke looked more tired to me.

I think Dwil is correct by the way. Very surprised he managed to get the angle on that choke.

[Beelzebubzy]

need holdsworth here

think grappling advantage is bigger than Nunyas rooster
Camus got grappled by that asian dude and should have lost

[JIBBBY]

Pushing down on the side of his head with the elbow and tri, and with the help of the fence to create better position and leverage sure.. He went out...

Well, the problem is that Iaquinta is a really talented grapper, but Clarke is is really really really improved.

tired opponent, lol

[Bumdeal]

holdsworth/ferguson

[mmaed]

Damn Iaquinta. I just cant seem to win consistently here. Is anyone else finding it harder to win on MMA these days or is it just me? I thought Iaquinta would handle Clarke easily.

[JIBBBY]

Breathing hard.. The blood is flowing faster in the body and to the brain.. You cut off air or blood flow and the brain shuts off faster.. Come on guys don't question my shit.

The DUDE WENT TO SLEEP... IT WORKED!!!! Jeeeeesssss

I'd bet Iaquinta again gladly.

Variance at its finest, pretty much.

MD you're a trip.. You certainly do like to blast posters.. Were you not hugged enough as a child by your mommy?

I can contribute to this conversation and I have rolled and not in a wheel chair pal.. Chill...

You losing bets again tonight MD?.. I like ya better when you are winning.. Good luck pal... LOL..

Thanks.That makes me feel a little better. I used to do really well at this but I stopped for a long time. I am trying to get back into this but I have a very small bankroll and I am betting a large amount of what I have to try and build up a decent sized roll so this little bit of variance kills me.

I'm a good sport Thor and can take a good Internet beating from you guys.. All good but I did roll... Neck still hurts today from doing it and wish I never did....

[Bumdeal]

Apparently not. Everything you say is ignorant; Dwil implied that catching a choke from that position and angle is highly unusual, which it is, and you replied by telling us that it was because Iaquinta was tired (which he was not), and that it's easier to choke someone out when they're tired because "the brain shuts off faster", and when we pointed out how nonsensical your points were, your reply was literally:

The DUDE WENT TO SLEEP... IT WORKED!!!! Jeeeeesssss

That's about the point when you should realize that you're out of your element.

It happens. Wouldn't worry about it, unless the shots you're taking are too big. Aggression is good, but don't overdo it.

I'll second the variance comment.

April was my biggest month ever, insane amounts flowing in.

May is my worst month ever, lost or broke even every MMA card.

It happens, smash openers, find value, penetrate bitches, the money will come eventually.

[PaperTrail07]

Agree totally ****** me...but what a move.....PROPS to Clark...

Great sneaky Darse.. Mitch Clark!!!!!!!

I keep forgetting the penetrate bitches part.

DAMN!!!!

[PaperTrail07]

Either way,,,,guy was put to SLEEP....weird angle or not....and he was somewhat tired....

[Beelzebubzy]
