For anybody who didn’t watch the event, it was a somewhat ****ty event with a couple of saving graces. The championship fight was actually really entertaining, although it did give every fan blue balls to some degree.
For anybody who did watch the event, check out Brandon Vera’s wikipedia page. His loss at this event is credited as “Submission: Bongo strikes on the back.” Not done by me, but gave me a chuckle.
Also, MMA judging has had events more flagrant than this one to show that it is inept, but I really don’t see how anybody could have scored that 46-48 for Maynard. I can see how it could have been a draw, because the first round was obviously at best 10-8 Maynard, but he clearly lost the next three, and the fifth could have gone either way. This gives the possible results as 47-47 if you give Maynard the fifth, and 46-48 Edgar if he won the fifth. Someone let me know what I’m missing here; how could anybody have given the 2nd, 3rd or 4th rounds to Maynard? |

I doubt you’re going to get many decent responses to this given the personalities here…but I’ll throw you a bone. Let me preface this by saying that I was a UFC/MMA fan before all the Tapout-wearing douchebags and the TV show. First UFC event I watched was UFC 43 in 2003. AAAAAAAAaanyway…
I don’t know what you’re talking about saying it was ****ty. There were a bunch of fairly well-known guys like Leben and Vera but there weren’t really any “huge” names on this card like a Penn or a St. Pierre. But I think there’s a few future big stars in there like Jeremy Stephens and Brian Stann (Silver Star Marine + a few more wins like that= HUGE). I totally agree with you about the Edgar/Maynard fight, no way Maynard gets 2, 3, or 4 and my round 5 went to Edgar. Also what a male reproductive organ move by that judge to call a main event title fight a draw. I’m sure a rematch will be forthcoming. |

Women’s MMA is worth watching. Men’s, not so much. |

I guess “****ty” was bit strong of a term. I’m probably just sad that Leben and Gomi lost their respective fights. Leben’s last few have been tremendously entertaining, and I guess I was let down that he got tagged so quickly and decisively. I know Gomi is kind of **** now compared to his former glory days, but god dammit I still want to believe in the Fireball Kid.
And Clay Guida I used to like, until he turned into a ****ty neanderthal version of Dominick Cruz. |

I’ve tried watching women’s MMA a few times, but I always get a strangely disturbed feeling watching a girl get punched and whatnot. I know, women’s rights and all that, they get paid etc., I just feel wrong watching it.
I really expected more “naked sweaty guys rolling around is gay” posts by now though. |

Women’s MMA is about as entertaining as women’s basketball – not at all unless you’re a woman.
Oh and Hobojim – tweet by Randy Couture: “Looks good for Toronto and machida April 30 . 2011 is looking fantastic already . Proud of gray maenad [sic] he’s come along way in 5 years !” That would be UFC 129. |

Oh man…
I do love Randy Couture, in that he is a crazy old man who keeps fighting and winning in entertaining fashion (mostly), but he’s going to get stomped by Machida. And, like every Canadian currently residing in Ontario, I’m both excited and depressed that the UFC is finally coming here. Excited because it’s finally here, and depressed that it was illegal before this event.
It’s shaping up to be a good event, though, from the sound of things. |
