I had a nice amount of money on Jacre and Mousasi. I knew they wouuld be in the finals. Now I just sit back and watch my boy Jacre WIN IT ALL!

I been telling you guys about Alistar all week! As entertaining as he is, he CAN"t WIN the BIG Fights! He never does, and if you think becoming strikeforce champ is a big fight, think again. The division that he ho9lds the title in strikeforce is trash!
Repeated Knees to the Groin and its ruled a NO contest! This is exactly why I could have cared less about this match up in tyhe weeks leading up to the event. I knew this fight wasn’t going to live up to the hype!
Atta boy Sergei! Aoki is the MAN. He is just a wimp who will submit the Fuk out of you!

FUK! WHY did Jacre have to loose? I was so confident about him winning it since the beginning of the tournament but as soon as the fight started I had a feeling that he was going to get KO’ed!
FUK! FUK! FUK! I hate to see him loose! DAMN IT! FUK! FUK! FUK!!!!!!!!
Thank god I didn’t bet on the finals!
Props to Mousasi, I have always been a fan, except when he fights Jacre!
by john on Sep 23, 2008 8:16 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I made a nice amount of money too!
I knew it would be real close but I always had faith in Mousassi. Never imagined it would end like that!
I was in shock for a while after yet so happy. :-)

F*ck it! Channelsurfing.net doesn’t wanna show me anything! I open the link for Dream 6, and it opens a new window, but that’s as far as it goes. I’m getting impatient!…Or maybe, it’s already over, but I doubt it ‘cuz I don’t see yet the results for the Cro-Cop fight…

Nakamura should’ve taken it to the ground earlier.

Damn, either cecil was there or Nakamura slept with the judges’ daughter. Seriously!!

I felt bad for Jimmy Ambriz, dude was definitely not on Kharitonovs level.

Tht is one of main things I hate about mma in Japan…..You think that EliteXC puts together some can vs “their fighter” matches. MMA in Japan has some of the worst mismatches ever. How can you take a fight serious with lines liek those
Sakurai at -1800
Aoki at -2500
and a couple others at -1000
Those are just ridiculis. The people in Vegas are basically saying Aoki has to suffer a heart attack or career ending injury to lose the fight. I never heard of a line that like
by fightfan on Sep 23, 2008 5:16 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
That’s because the Yakuza handle betting in Japan differently from the mob that handles betting in the US. The Jersey and Vegas mobs just play it cool and don’t get too obvious. They even have Italian fight fixers in the octagon like Miragliotta and Mazagatti…That’s just my “conspiracy theory”, hehehe!

I’m in the UK with no access to HD-Net or whatever it is. Keep the results rolling mania, your doing a fine job!
Hope cro-cop knocks him sparko.

Akiyama just handled tonoka. Unnecessarily long fight – he kept going for a crucifix from the top.
by NameNotRequired on Sep 23, 2008 7:11 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
The right testicle went inside, that’s worse than Kongo. I have to change my saying from getting Kongo’ed to Overeem’ed.
by NameNotRequired on Sep 23, 2008 7:46 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I don’t know which is worse! Overeem had ye ole’ testicles in full retreat, Kongo split his sack open.
by chefdaddy on Sep 23, 2008 9:16 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
NO CONTEST!!!!!. Overeem knees CropCop in the balls worse than congo.
After all that shit tak Ali couldnt get it done legitimately. Hes lUcky Crocop didnt kick his fucking head off.
by rctrue on Sep 23, 2008 7:55 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
There is some crazy rant going on in the ring is that Overeem?
by DirtyML on Sep 23, 2008 7:55 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Yea, i was wondering if that was from the mousasi highlight coz i missed that.
by NameNotRequired on Sep 23, 2008 8:00 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
someone who would talk all that shit and end a fight with knees to the balls of a guy he said he would destroy doesnt belong in the ufc, hell anyone who would go as low as hitting a guy in the balls needs to quit fighting i’d be pissed if i was cro cop

Ya those had too hurt , I couldnt imagine taking shots too the balls like that .. Should have been a dq imho.
by dayzah on Sep 23, 2008 7:59 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Overeem is a fag, kneeing Cro Cop in the balls.
by Sean on Sep 23, 2008 7:59 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Mousasi by up-kick? WTF? Suprised the shit out of me.
by the_mexicutioner on Sep 23, 2008 8:08 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Man, that was nuts – suspect chin or hard kick?
by NameNotRequired on Sep 23, 2008 8:08 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Very Hard kick , hard force coming up meets hard force coming down , for sure a hard kick.
by dayzah on Sep 23, 2008 8:17 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Nobody has a suspect chin when it comes to kicks. Anyone could get knocked out by a kick!
by The Negation on Sep 23, 2008 6:22 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Lmao. Mousasi freaking owns. Everyone kept picking Jacare and I kept telling them Mousasi was going to steamroll. Looks like I was right. Mousasi is just too good while Jacare has some work to do. Work on that chin buddy.
by FlyByKnight on Sep 23, 2008 8:11 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
That was one of the most brutal upkicks I’ve seen I dunno how you guys can say suspect chin.
by DirtyML on Sep 23, 2008 8:27 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
I was just asking because if you have seen the macaco-jacare fight that u might question his chin. But definitely it was one of the more dead on impact upkicks.
by NameNotRequired on Sep 23, 2008 8:53 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Jacare has always had a problem with his chin though. He’s made it well known that he cannot take a solid strike to the face. It started early on in his career.
by FlyByKnight on Sep 23, 2008 8:39 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
CroCop should consider getting a new cup since one of his testicles apparently went inside (I don’t really want to know how that happened while wearing a cup, but its surely odd). Overeem was dominating that fight even without the groin-shots. CroCop seems to have quite the propensity to get knee’d in the balls, I don’t know why he even let Overeem get that close without even attempting the head-kick.
by Belisarius on Sep 23, 2008 8:40 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Also, was that Badr Hari heading towards Overeem while he was leaving the ring?
by Belisarius on Sep 23, 2008 8:42 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
LeBanner i thought. I wonder if it was him that when on the rant after overeem in the background?
