[Eccocide]

Hendo.....wow....so sad.

Dana has got to be laughing somewhere right now...

And Mayhem causes a riot!!!! hahahaha. Diaz and him throwing bombs, crazy riot hahahahaha.This card was not what CBS wanted lol.

[brooks85]

dana white is loving this


ahah read my mind

[illmatick]

who threw the first punch juice??

[brooks85]

mayhem came into the cage talking shit, if you can call it that i mean its mayhem miller, then got jumped

[waco66]

haha woooooooooow! mayham got a beat down

[Tree Rollins]

That was awesome. At first i thought saw Melendez and Mayhem going at it, and then it was Nick Diaz and Mayhem.

There might be a brawl backstage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[brooks85]

shields trainer was kicking mayhem on live tv, while he had like 4 others guy punching him

mayhems underground following is loving this haha

[BigNutFlush]

That brawl was the only action highlight of that pretty lame StrikeForce Card. Looked good on paper. Bunch a gassed out Fighters fighting one to many rounds.

[JuicedUp]

who threw the first punch juice??

i believe melendez was in there first.

[JuicedUp]

imagine if you parlayed shields with King mo

i believe it paid 10-1...

[illmatick]

that almost made up for the crap fights lol, can anyone else get into sherdog right now??

not loading for me

[Varker]

what started the brawl? I tuned in when they were breaking it up.

[illmatick]

First rule of MMA: Never start shit inside the cage with the Diaz brothers present. As expected, all hell broke loose and fists went flying on national television. Regrettably, it was the most exciting action to take place inside the cage all night.

[JuicedUp]

dana white just posted a on his twitter.

[brooks85]

Hugh, he landed the better strikes in the period he wasn't gassed, which was only for the first round lol

Gegards striking wasn't anything special, only started landing after Mo gassed, and even then the strikes looked pretty weak

like ecco said there wasn't much disparity is striking skills between the two, a dominant striker would have finished Mo in the second or third, had his chance and he choked

both guy's cardio was pathetic

ya but at the end of the day, he outstriked mo 4/5 rounds, possibly even all 5. And it was the second round he had lawal hurt real bad, and mousasi definitely didnt pull the trigger. Both guys gassed but, it proved, the king mo hype was false. Mousasi fought like he has in every fight before, way too calm and he still beat Mo up..

also most of those punches lawal threw in the first 3 rounds while he was on top, were not connecting, so the disparity is even bigger.

This is like the penn/edgar fight, lawal did not do anything effective until the fourth round. Edgar spent 4 rounds whiffing on the majority of his punches and being stuffed on all 12 of his tds, lawal spent 4 rounds doing nothing but tds and being lost from that point on. I mean you if count getting a takedown, then recieving a barage of strikes and do nothing in return as winning the round, thats crazy.

The unified rules are garbage, that fight was a prime example why.

[illmatick]

I agree with most of that brooks, both fighters were over hyped

still think Mo has the most potential of the two, just needs to work on that gas tank

[brooks85]

ya the fight was big let down really on both ends. I hope they do a rematch and both guys give a lot better performance.

[Kaladarus]

Mousasi used his gameplan. Mo was gassed by the end of the second. Unfortunately this did nothing and was pretty much irrelevant in the fight, since a gassed Mo can still lock down Mousasi easily.

You cant be serious man. In the second gegard had some nice strikes from the bottom but there was no power in most of his stikes from the bottom. King mo took him down at will and dominated the fight.

[Straight Cash]

Ha, wow, cant believe that happened!

here's what I get when I try and browse sherdog

The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later.

[brooks85]

well i think its safe to say, if that fight was in dream mousasi would have won. That could have affected mousasi thought process. Maybe he thought he was winning.

playa please, you cant dominate a fight by getting outstruck and beatup, thats just nonsense man

[Kaladarus]

Maybe if there were unlimited rounds Mousasi would have won, but he shouldn't have accepted so many takedowns from a guy that was completely gassed. Got to give Mo some credit for giving it his all when he was breathing out of his mouth from the 3rd round.

Keep trying or listen to beatdown after the bell.

Shit fights, shitty production, horrible commentating, and a bunch of bs after the fights, total amateur crap overall.

If anyone thinks that Mayhem/Gracie camp brawl afterwards was great, you belong with all the rest of the white trash that love professional wrestling

Thats american MMA, wrestlers dominate it sucks for us purist who want to see a fight scored on damage and not who can take whom down the most.
It's hard for me to agree with anyone who thinks kmo dominated that fight he really didn't do anything but lay in mousasi guard and take punishment.

I've been saying for awhile mousasi needs to move down a weight class the guy looks much slower at 205 and he gassed much quicker than even he expected.

I was very upset with the commentating, I realize CBS is targeting teenage boys and casual fans; but it was completely biased and disrespectful, constant PRO USA slander when Aoki was fighting without ever truly explaining Aoki as a fighter or the major differences between Japan and Americas athletic commissions; mindless rambling from Frank Shamrock that had nothing to do with the fights... and **** they were just annoying!.

CBS fails as a competitor because they come off as the stupid step cousin of the UFC; They are trying so hard to sell this to people that it detracts from the fighting and hurts MMA as a whole this is why people say MMA fans are stupid rednecks because they watch a CBS broadcast and listen to those 3 morons talk for 2 hours.

... didn't mean to rant just 2 hours of that shit has ****ed with my head I need a beer.

[illmatick]

DOMINANT POSITION> weak ass punches from the bottom

that's the way it is in mma so get used to it


I'll just continue to laugh at everyone who keeps saying he didn't do anything but lay in Gegard's guard, those little rabbit punches Gegard was landing from the bottom didn't have shit behind them, most of the swelling on Mo's face was initiated in that first single leg Mo went for, Gegard landed about 6 punches right around his eye

make sure you take note of how easily Mo's face swells up, could be key in handicapping some of his future fights

Only took 7 fights to defeat who most of you here were praising as the next Fedor, give the man his fukin props, gassed after the first round and fought the last 4 rounds off of grit and determination

like Mo says in his interview , Fuk The Haters

[Vaughany]

Irony is that Mayhem had SHields on his bullybeatdown show to beat up a bully! Didnt think they had tht much beef between them! Was almost expecting King Mo to come running out from the back and help his mate Mayhem like something out of WWE! Was hilarious.

[Preston09]

What a weak ass card! Go Mayhem! The only damn interesting thing of the night. To much lay and pray for 5rds.

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

who takes it Gilbert Melendez or Frankie Edgar???

[brooks85]

ha you can laugh all you want, all MO did was lay gegard guard and get his ASS WHOOPED, its not even an opinion, it is a proven fact, WATCH THE FIGHT.

. MO got his ass kicked last night, the strike count proves it.

The money you had on MO and the touting you did is obviously affecting your opinion.


And i love this king mo hype, anyone who watches that post fight interview and believe a word mo is saying, is an idiot. The guy hypes himself more than anyone, he got his ass whooped and he knows it. The excuses he makes for it are hilarious tho, so they video is a good watch. "he couldnt hurt me" hahah

ha, here is the real, first post-fight interview, look at this typical BS lawal talks

http://www.sherdog.com/videos/recent/King-Mo-Me-Against-the-World-2388

and another thing because you are clearly in denial, "weak ass punches from the bottom" do not sound like sledge hammers and thats what you heard over and over on live tv.

[TheIceman]

The funny part is Shields's buddies would get stomped if Mayhem brought his people with him in the cage . Melendez , both Diaz brothers , Cesar Gracie himself and some other punks would need like 100 cheap shots to KO somebody . Lol at Cesar getting knocked out in 21 seconds by Frank Shamrock in his debut and only MMA bout .

[smarmy]

I thought that Miller and Shields were buds. When they fought, that is what was portrayed. I think that miller was just trying to be a goof and Melendez and the Diaz dorks got into it. Bad timing from Miller, but bad showing by Shield's corner.

first of all, i love pro wrestling and i dont like ANY part of this brawl at all. I respect mma as a sport and like the skill it takes to win more than the violence it takes to hurt.

Even in normal everyday life, if i see a fight about to start, i leave. Never stick around at all because i dont like violence

[illmatick]

Mo got his ass whooped

obviously you're delusional, I don't know how many time I've seen you cry after a fight about how you were so convinced your guy should have won..... only to have 6 other rational people laugh in your face about how a fight is really scored

happens over and over again with you, rest of the guys here know it... so keep living in whatever pretend fantasy world you want to
