UFC 142: "Aldo vs. Mendes," taking place tonight (Sat., Jan. 14, 2012) at the HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, featured a middleweight match-up pitting leg wrangler Rousimar Palhares against journeyman Mike Massenzio.
This fight came with the disclaimer that fans watching be wary of the fact that they might see a man get his leg torn off because Palhares is a specialist when he gets ahold of his opponent's limbs.
Sure enough, he pulled guard, wrapped up Massenzio's leg and torqued until he forced the tap. The entire sequence took just over a minute. "The Master of Disaster" never had a chance once Palhares got a hold of his leg and cranked in that heel hook.
That marks nine of his last 11 wins via submission.
Palhares dedicated the win to a partner of his who had passed. Just a cherry on top of yet another tapout victory for the tree stump from Brazil.

Go ahead and feed that scrub Sonnen to this kid...Sonnen wouldn't last 2 minutes on the ground with this dude
I wanna see Sonnen pull his butthumping shit on Palhares and see how long that shit will last…
Git some Sonnen

That's why in the very unlikely chance Sonnen becomes MW champ, he would retire immediately before fighting Maia or Palhares.
I’m assuming interim title gain, because I still can’t see him beating Anderson in a five rounder.

That's the name of the game: Mixed Martial Arts.
Combining many disciplines and putting in the work to execute. Sonnen is a very good MMA based wrestler, but his lack of power in his strikes and very poor submission defense would and will always leave him to the mercy of the Silva’s, Maia’s, and Palhares’ of the world.
Oh yeah, and Jeremy Horn.

I think Im the only guy on the site that thought Massenzio would win… lol…
"Did you know that if you mix equal parts

I honestly had a slight inclination, for the most brief moment
Before I said, no…
Joe Silva needs to do the right thing and book Palhares with a big name…a Vitor Belfort maybe…
Or the loser of one of the 2 MW fights on the next Fox card
u probably scarnned one of my post somewhere picking Massenzio
… a subliminal message hit you the next morning…. and you said… “what the hell was that”?

Exactly what happened...
I had the bubble guts and I thought to myself…“I only get the bubble guts on Saturday nights and it’s Friday”
Something was wrong
I hereby declare that Edson Barboza is the true owner of the Showtime Kick

"ever heard of a tune up? tee hee hee hee
"ah hee hee hee ever heard of a ritual killing? tee hee hee hee"
"i dont get it"
"you gnaw on her face in public like that again and you'll be one tee hee hee hee"
I wanted to see a heel hook and got one so I'm happy.
Scary dude though.

rules for fighting this man
Ref-he does not break hold until you pull him off, keep one eye on the tapper and one on the tappee
Fighter-wear a speedo, don’t give him anything other than your skin to touch, but it might not help

His opponents should just tap out as soon as he grabs their leg, to avoid injury.

things we learn from ufc 142 - mw division
guys like vitor belfort & rousimar palhares are so much better than crap spitting bisping who is asing for a titleshot. dana, please pit bisping against one of these winners. i sure as hell wouldnt want to see A.silva fighting a crap fighter like bisping especially so when he is in the twilight of his career.
classic lenny
kick a guy in the nuts, then take him down and rip his ankle off

Kept waiting for Paul Harris to see a ghost or something
Where were his wacky antics in this fight?
