MMA July - Now featuring Heisenberg's tears

As long as he's got Dolce I have faith, and I already have faith in Chael alone as a wrestler and a fighter to make weight for a title fight. I'm more excited for this than the super bowl, if the steelers were in it then it'd be close but goddamn it this is way up there.

Cleared my entire schedule for tomorrow because the anticipation is going to eat me alive. I could not be more excited, this is the bigger than the super bowl, bigger than the world cup, bigger than Wimbledon to me. Holy fuck im excited.
 
I stand by my position that Silva will win a second time. I just don't feel strongly enough about it to take a major stand on it. Sooooo many factors in play
 
On a sidenote, I'm trying out Tapout XT.

I'll let you guys know how it works. I've been watching the workouts first to just get a feel for it and it looks like it's a killer.
 
Well......:shrug:

I had Silva winning and he had Chael in trouble but that was early. If I had made a name change bet with someone and they lost the bet I wouldn't hold them to it
 
Highly respectable, you are a man of caliber but the stoppage came early, even as a guy who dislikes Chael I believe it was early
 
I tried to log onto teh Shitdog to see what people were saying, can't get in, too much traffic to the site. Oh well I literally prefer those of you here to 99% of that forum
 
Chael wasn't intelligently defending himself. He was covered up, not moving around or trying to fight back. I questioned the knee, but I never even stopped and thought that it was an early stoppage.
 
I think it was early in the sense that Chael wasn't out of it. He wasn't defending like he should have been, but I think he could have continued. I had Silva winning from the start and I'm glad we won, it just seemed like Chael still had something left.

I felt bad for Tito tonight for the second time in my life. I thought the fight was a draw, pains me to say that since I love Forrest
 
As a diehard Chael fan, I thought the stoppage was pretty justified too.

I'm just glad I didn't throw money on the fight as I was so close to doing so.
 
He would have eaten multiple shots, he didn't do anything to give any indication that he had anything left. The referee realized Chael wasn't moving, he would have laid there taking unnecessary shots, risking serious injury. I don't want any fighter subjected to extra punishment and when somebody is on the ground, turtled up, taking punches from a guy like Anderson, i think you need to stop the fight or risk permanent injury to Sonnen. He may have had something left, but with a few more shots, Anderson would have likely knocked him out completely. I don't think anybody would be ok with that happening.

In the end, it was a great fight and Anderson showed why he is the GOAT. I'm just glad nobody is bitching about the knee on our website, unlike Shitdog and the UG. That's the reason I love our community, nobody is unreasonable or blind to what actually happens during fights.

Goddammit I was just about to rewatch for the stoppage but for some reason my DVR didn't record it.

I had some trouble with my DVR as well, the HD PPV goes on for 10 hours for some reason and my DVR would only let me record the entire 10 hours, I couldn't select certain times. I just ended up turning the cable box off once the Anderson/Sonnen fight was finished and that cut the recording off right after the post fight speeches.
 
I talk more actual MMA here than on Sherdog. Most of my posts there were in Mayberry and chat threads. My nice green platinum account is just wasting away over there, haven't logged in but once this week
 
I made an account once when I was first getting into MMA. I asked JMT what websites were a good source of information and news to help me get an understanding on the sport and he told me about Sherdog's main page. I still use Sherdog for news, interviews and fight finder, I think their main page is the best out of all MMA news websites(not including the UG IPhone App which is my main source of everything MMA.)

Anyway, I made the account there maybe, two years ago and logged in once. Haven't used it since.
 
My original account there got the ban after about a year

I laughed at the thread title change.

I don't think I will end up repeating as champion in the prediction contest. If memory serves I was third heading in and I missed too many to retake the lead. I doubt the Munoz/Weidman and Rockhold/Kennedy cards will boost me back.
