[The HOFF]

I give Machida round 1.

[FindTheLock]

machida is looking excellent. i wish I put more than 3 bucks on him lol

[hels]

hmmm lyoto has a chance

[jspectyper]

Anyone else take Machida? +420 for him, I just had to take that.

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

Machida looks tried already

[hels]

bad decision john mccarthy

[FindTheLock]

that cut loses him the fight he won't be able to see

[jspectyper]

damn....

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

wow

[cheeese]

Jones TKOed him

[Vaughany]

****, why does Jones have to keep winning by Sub! Mir will still get SOTN

[FindTheLock]

damn jones is too damn big to fight in the LHW division...

[The HOFF]

Tonight was just crazy!!

[Vitooch]

Haha that was awesome.

[hels]

who can beat jones???

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

are they gonna grade that as a TKO as well

[Vaughany]

2 amazing PPV's in a row

[Tree Rollins]

Damn. Good effort by Machida. I have a lot of respect for that guy.

Fuking Jones. I'm sick of him.

[FindTheLock]

that should be a TKO becaue he didn't tap out.

[MUHerd37]

Now that's how you choke a mother fukker out!

[sideloaded]

choke wasnt impressive machida knocked himself out jumping in crazy like that

[Tree Rollins]

****, why does Jones have to keep winning by Sub! Mir will still get SOTN

That's not a sub is it? Machida didn't tap.

[FindTheLock]

he can do that because of his height advantage. Jones is too good for all of the LHW. Let him fight JDS!!

[Vaughany]

That's not a sub is it? Machida didn't tap.

ha gd point

[Tree Rollins]

he can do that because of his height advantage. Jones is too good for all of the LHW. Let him fight JDS!!

I really want to see him fight Rashad. After that, the LHW division doesn't have much to offer him.

[Vaughany]

no no... it should be ruled a TKO because that's what bruce buffer said. Even if he were to make a mistake it doesn't matter. The words from his mouth are the official decision and will be upheld.

Now a TKO does not have to be decided by strikes either. Here is the definition: A technical knockout (also referred to as a T.K.O.) is declared when the referee, official ring physician, the fighter, or the fighter's cornermen decide that a fighter cannot safely continue the match.

So, it was a correct TKO decision by Herb Dean. A broken arm does not mean it was a submission. I am only trying to state the rules/definitions.

Where did you get the above rules/reg's quote from Hels?

[Kaladarus]

That's not true at all. The definition doesn't mean that was a TKO.

[Vaughany]

UFC have it as a submission (Mir tht is)!

[FindTheLock]

I really want to see him fight Rashad. After that, the LHW division doesn't have much to offer him.

rashad does pose a new threat that jones hasn't faced yet, but I don't think jones will have a problem rag dolling rashad with his wrestling. he's just a bigger built guy then the rest of the LHW's. If he fought JDS and got caught with that punch machida hit him with he would go out.

[cheeese]

Now he's going to be -800 every fight

[Landscaper]

This sport is not once what it was...This was not a good card and anybody who thinks diff is new to the sport...

[Vaughany]

Unibet and paddy have settled it as a submission as well

[Kaladarus]

Any decent book will rule it a submission.

[phillybadboy]

who can beat jones???

was this a tko? ref stopped the fight, lyoto did not tap from choke

[NunyaBidness]

was this a tko? ref stopped the fight, lyoto did not tap from choke

You guys have really never heard of a technical submission before?
