UFC Fight Night: Nelson vs. Story (October 04, 2014)

[cheeese]

Walsh itd

[JIBBBY]

Nelson for me. Story gasses in all of his fight.

Nelson wins inside the distance prop -180

[fitguy67]

thing to watch for in this fight: just how serene and focused and business-like is the corner work of TeamGunni...an edifying 1-minute interlude with not a hint of anxiety

...but the dude hasn't been hurt yet...interesting to see if the corner-work keeps its composure should he get into a real fight...

hopefully we'll get thru the 1st round so we can all share in the finely tuned "GunnarNelson corner experience"

Jesus, you need to work on your lineshopping skills.

[Beelzebubzy]

Nelson wins inside the distance prop -180

Nelson Sub +200 here

[mirinquads]

Gunnar actually seems stronger in the clinch, interesting

[Wilbo86]

Story needs to go back to his leg kicks

[Beelzebubzy]

Gunnar actually seems stronger in the clinch, interesting

I think we all expected that. KAmpmann exposed Story's lack of trip defense.

[JIBBBY]

Round 1 Gunnar...

[Wilbo86]

I think we all expected that. KAmpmann exposed Story's lack of trip defense.

Technique not strength IMO

[mirinquads]

Has nothing to do with the actual strength.

[Wilbo86]

And this is why Nelson should never be a massive favourite...

[Beelzebubzy]

Did Story gas yet?

[JIBBBY]

Round 2?????

[mirinquads]

On his way, gunnar gets the finish this round or the next

My bank roll hopes at least.

[mirinquads]

Round 2?????

Yes Jibby, that was round 2, now its round 3! : )

[fitguy67]

this is a perfect fight to watch with ambient crowd noise only...no "talking heads" attempting to interpet/spin/color the action...

from a pure "damage assessment" or what i call "who'd you rather be" perspective...this is a legitimately competitive fight

[marzwoody]

Getting worried Gunna...

[Wilbo86]

I have story winning those exchanges in rd3, but very very marginally

[JIBBBY]

Round 3 maybe Gunnar.. This one is looking like it's going the distance..

[Beelzebubzy]

Nelson looks done. Lost like 6u.

Back down the pecking order.

[mirinquads]

penetrate, i had story TKO, that was close as fuark

[Vaughany]

Yee game over

[Vaughany]

Dammnnn

[mmaed]

nelson is tough

[Wilbo86]

Lol, anthoer huge favourite goes down in flames...

[fitguy67]

this next Gunni corner will be interesting...

the pre-fight analysis item that was insufficiently-considered was the "heaviness of hands" edge for Story...

on the flip side we see that Gunny's peerless technique has NOT been covering up a glass jaw

[shabang]

gunner sucks

[Vaughany]

Should be 10-8 round but no doubt will only give 10-9 and he'll probably lose controversial decision

gunnar corner telling him he's up on cards

[JIBBBY]

Round 4 Story... 5th round probably will decide it...

[Wilbo86]

Gunnar needs a finish

[Wilbo86]

Fcking terrible corner advice... how can any decent coach have gunnar winning this?

[NunyaBidness]

Round 4 Story... 5th round probably will decide it...

Can't imagine giving Nelson any round but 1.

[Vaughany]

Will be first SBG loss in 12 or 13 fights or sumin

[Vaughany]

Fcking terrible corner advice... how can any decent coach have gunnar winning this?

Even if he was up on cards, you shouldnt be telling him tht anyway!
