50-45 Rockhold??????

[Ladle]

Which you leveled at this post:



Who's the troll? I bothered to get sucked into just one of your many intentional flame wars. Cases made, discussion closed.

Yes, I did level it at that post, dipshit. There's a reason Poppa ridiculed you for being butthurt. It's obvious to any objective person that Jacare lost the final three rounds as a direct result of being arm-weary and fatigued. Anyone who disagrees - and goes so far as to say there's more to blame on Jacare then there is to praise about Rockhold - is trolling or stupid.

Also, many flame wars? I've only properly argued with three people the whole time I've posted on here: MMADisciple (proven troll who has since left), v1y (who I now respect as a poster), and you. Anything else is friendly debate or banter. I just find it difficult to be kind when I read your embarrassing, inane posts.

Jacare sucks. He lost to Tim Kennedy too.

Jacare sucks. He lost to Tim Kennedy too.

Just need to tell Kennedy that there is someone who agrees with him finally.

Ladle this fight took place on 9/10 one day before the United States of America's biggest cover up ever, coincidence? I think not.


Itsssssssssssss a conspiracy of epic proportions (either that or he got fatigued, but that is just crazy talk)

Watch the fight again smartass.

[Poppa Catfish]

Watch the fight again smartass.

You know what, I agree with you, and if you look closely at that fight I dare say you see Jacare fatigue and cling to a decision. Pretty similar to this fight in my humble opinion.

So I guess that makes three of us


but that was a very close fight, and I can at least see how it was scored for Jacare. How people want to give him this fight is well beyond me

[iQon]

Why was he trying to KO Luke the whole fight? What if he would have landed clean? It's not like he was out there jabbing and running.
He gassed and thought he could ride out a decision.

Dude, it's just an accusation. I can't prove the fight was "fixed" and you can't prove it wasn't. Pointless argument.

Everything about Luke Rockhold's resume stunk. He was relatively obscure on a 19 month layoff getting a title shot.

Then the upset is nothing all that convincing. Jacare mostly on the defensive. 2 judges say he loses his title by only 1 round and there's NO talk of a rematch?

That was Jacare's last fight in Strikeforce. No doubt in my mind. But what good does it do for Jacare to make the move as the SF champ? How do you sell the people SF's champ debuting against anyone not named Anderson Silva? A fight that just won't happen. Him losing just makes the move easier. That's all I'm saying.

[FightFightFight]

Ridonkerous.

[cheeese]

I agree with you that UFC will take Jacare but there is no way he threw the fight. It seems after every big letdown or questionable decision someone has to say it was fixed and it is laughable.

[rocky mattioli]

it was competitive,imo..and subjective......but in a predominantly strking kind of fight,it looks much better to the judges when:

1)one guy is pressing the action more than the other.....hell,rampage landed next to nothing vs machida but everyone was up his ass because he was "moving forward"......well,most of the time,that`s what rockhold was doing....controling the ring...

2)a guy that throws combinations(more than one punch at a time or kick/punch combos) gets more credit in most judges eyes,imo......jacare was looking to land the big right hand....one shot at a time...and he landed some nice shots....but unfortunately,rockhold has a very solid set of whiskers.....

i also think that when a jits specialist or uber-grappler gets his takedowns stuffed,it infuences the judges..... i don`t know how much credit a guy should get for stuffing takedowns...but i would bet that when a relative neophyte continually stuffs a champion grappler`s takedowns,it looks bad......and may influence judges a bit...is that right or wrong?...who knows.....


i thought it was competitive...close...i certainly don`t think it was a "bad" decision(the 5-0 score notwithstanding)....

it was a fan friendly fight with a ton of drama...i think we all agree on that...
