UFC on Versus 4 (Marquardt v Story)

Zero-Cool

Ah thats a bad end to the fight! jaysus ref was standing right in front of em!

SDTimeout

how the ref did not spot that i will never know.

Zero-Cool

Surely they can still call a disqualification? ref is gone after that i'd say

Zero-Cool

whats there to review! just call a no contest or DQ. Pity, good fight an all.

ScareGilly

Crowd was a bit of a disgrace with the booing, it was hardly intentional and the commissioner said he'd review it.. So it's going to go down as a NC.

Have to say, Nik Lentz has grown on me in his last 2 fights, never thought I'd say that :pac:

Oh_Noes

Sad end really but awesome fight up to that point. You have to take into account the fact that Lentz was on his way to his feet and had his knee been a millimeter off the mat, the knee would have been perfectly legal so it's very hard from the referee's point of view. Pretty unpleasant stuff though when you see what it did to Lentz, it's a great example of why those knees are against the rules.

Don't really agree with that at all.. Elbows do the same, if not more damage..

I don't think you get that leverage with elbows on the ground unless they're straight down and the opponent's head is on the mat. Those kind are illegal.

I'd say Ninja is going to get his marching orders unless he can pull something out of the bag here.

Sorry, thought you meant the damage he did to his face, the cut... On another note though, Jon Jones/Brandon Vera :P

Hmm, guess taking the fight on short notice he was always going to gas..

scudzilla

Can't watch the FB prelims as in work and requires 'Silverlight' to be installed, can't install anythin on these machines.


Any links flyin around?

ScareGilly

Nice kimura...
Can't believe Lauzon's only a purple belt :eek:

Zero-Cool

Nice strikes and bjj there!

Oh_Noes

Wow Warburton seems to hold a grudge against his own right arm :pac:

MrStuffins

Sh*t!!! My arm is killing me after watching that!

ScareGilly

How far can most people's arms go with a kimura? Mine can go further than that without me feeling the need to tap out.. I didn't think it was as bad as everyone's making it out to be, whoops :pac:

So THAT'S where I know you from. I knew i'd seen you somewhere before. I knew you when I was a kid....................

MrStuffins

As much as saying this pains me, get ready to see the last time Joe Daddy steps into the Octagon lads!

Probably the case. He really impressed me on TUF - I thought he'd do a lot better. Hope he retires soon and goes into coaching full-time - he's been around for a LONG time!

I've always really really liked Joe but he's just not at that level. If he loses tonight, it's 4 in a row. Off the top of my head I cant remember another fighter who has survived losing 4 in a row!

SanoVitae

He has an incredible guillotine - thats the only way I see him winning this one - will require Vasquez to gas and make a silly error. Unlikely!

Oh_Noes

Looks like the only thing Stevenson has worked on is pulling faces. He has really gone downhill over the years.

MrStuffins

This is so so bizarre! What the hell is Daddy doing? He;s not throwing punches, he's not doing anything except moving around!

SanoVitae

Hope he doesn't go all Kaleb Starnes on us!

MrStuffins

My mate has never watched MMA before. I just linked him to the Facebook stream of this and he caught the 3rd round of that fight! He thought I was having a laugh!

ScareGilly

That was actually a horrible performance by Joe Stevenson, deserves to be cut after that... What judge gave Joe Daddy a round?

MrStuffins

Guess Nate will have some company at the dole office tomorrow.

MrStuffins

Joe and Nate could be joined by Tyson griffin should manny do what none of us hope he will and beat him.

COME ON TYSON!!!!

SanoVitae

Joe's going to have real trouble retiring - he's been fighting so long and from such a young age, I bet he can't imagine doing anything else.

He won't retire. He'll have no trouble getting fights elsewhere! He might even head over and fight in SF at LW. He'd actually slot right in over there he'd be competitive against the current crop of lads.

Oh_Noes

Bellator would be a nice move for Stevenson. I'd say he'd give Joe Warren a good run for his money. He should maybe consider finding a new camp though.

ScareGilly

Anyone else find this ref really annoying?

He just said "Let 'em fly, boys"

Yes! Very much so!

Roy Nelson does, via Twitter

I think the ref with griffin and gamburyan fight just wants to hear himself talk, "more action 3 sec into the fight."

Oh_Noes

He seems to be getting worse the longer the fight goes on. He's barely going 5 seconds without talking now, it's getting silly.

MrStuffins

Roy's right, its like he just wants to say stuff to people on tv can hear him.

By the way 29-29? Was that a mistake? Coz Buffer said "Unamimous Decision"

SDTimeout

That ref's very annoying.

Stream just stopped during Baba... aww

scudzilla

what was the ref's name?

Zero-Cool

Ya ref was some dope! What time is stream back up 2 or 3am?

If its 2, ill stay up just for matts fight. cmon Meathead!!

Xlami

Ref is called Chip something, thought the facebook stream started at 12 missed the first two. Lauzon looked great (again against a lower level guy however).

Dustin Poirier(via twitter)

The ref needs to stop coaching and shut up

ScareGilly

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man, I thought it wasn't possible to like Matt Mitrione anymore, but it's just happened

SDTimeout

Lets hope Matt does not regret following up there

ScareGilly

F*cking brilliant, chuffed at that KO

SDTimeout

Love the way he just walked away, nice to see fighters show confidence and not intentionally go in to hurt the other guy ,

MonkeyBalls

seriously impressed with mitrione, the way he walked away like that, little things like that make me a fan

SDTimeout

Carwin next for Meathead ?

scudzilla

Nice, i like Mitrione

But gonna have to keep away from this thread as i'm 2mins behind :rolleyes::rolleyes:

ScareGilly

Did he just give a double shocker to the camera? I love him...
