A moment of silence for the days when fighters stepped up.
A moment of silence for the days when fighters stop laying on eachother.
Cali i here you brother and i hate to be the one to break it to you but I think we are stuck with LAY N PRAY ie: “FITCHING” for the forseeable future. It took Collge wrestling a millenium to enact (basically it was act of god) when they implemented the “STALLING RULE”and it made collge wrestling into an entirely 100% better sport. Do you know Jon Fitch still holds the all time NCAA record for being deducted points for stalling. When Jeff Blatnick was asked to write rules for MMA regarding do’s and don’t he either forgot about the “STALLING” rule of he wanted to make sure boring a’ss wrestlers had a huge advantage and would always be able to hump their way to victory no matter how boring or detrimental it was for the sport of MMA. I believ if there is ever an act of god and they implement an “ANTI” STALLING rule they will call it the “ANTI FITCHING” rule. Really seems like thes efighters would want to impress the fans and promoters and not be such cowards by ruining a fight for fans with “FITCHING” stalling-clock watching
Kongo is a queen
My automatic reaction to hearing stuff like this is what a pus$y….that is unless the guy is injured….
Maybe Kongo hasent been training or he’s just not ready.Who cares anyway,me personally I’m not a fan of kongo,his last fight at 149 was fuc*ing horrific,OMG!That was the worst fight I’ve ever seen.He used to be exciting but now he just clinches u against the fence and is afraid to strike.kongo had one of the craziest comebacks when he fought Barry but other than that recently he makes me sleep.Matt will make for an exciting fight,Matt always brings it.This will be a good fight.
Why’s Dana calling out his fighters maybe the guy was busy or out shape I like alot about Dana but he really shits on all the fighters as if he can be were hes at without them. Kongo shld go somewere else were they respect there fighters
Man that’s a disgrace.Kongo used to be a hungry BMF,He started fighting like a boring ass can.Wasted talent.He’s coming off the shitiest fight of the year he pulls this shit.A chance to save the card and redeem himself and he bitches out.He should get his walking papers for this bullshit.
