    Maia reckons the standup was "even".

    He's as funny as he is talented, love him! :D

    In fairness he was never in danger on his feet, whereas on the mat he was close a couple of times

    I really like Maia, but good luck selling Maia Woodley

    If it's on the Jones DC card like I'd say it will then that's the sell

    Not sure how a judge gave that to Gamebred.

    No but to call it even was hilarious, he was getting tagged and giving absolutely nothing back. That doesn't translate to "even" for me.

    The following legends share a little chuckle at your expense.

    Even Rogan and the comm teams were unsure of the scoring, got taked down and controlled in every single round.

    Ah I hear ya but I think it might have been lost in translation. Think he meant it was more even than on the ground, although when we think about it Maia was in real trouble at the end of the 1st

    Woodey at home drilling nothing but single leg defences, can see him land a right handed haymaker on Maia hope im wrong.

    Whorehay won that fight! Clinging on to someone's back is NOT fighting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,752 ✭✭✭johnpatrick81


    If JJ survives first 2 rounds she wins. This girl has more power than Claudia and the last girl though

    I actually scored the first round for Masvidal because of that. He pounded Maia hard and I think with another 30 seconds on the clock, he may have gotten the stoppage.

    Come let me cling to your back and see how you feel after 15 minutes of it so.

    I'll make sure you feel like you've been in a fight, I promise.

    True, but risky business putting it on a Jones card.. If Jones screws up again it'll be a disaster.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,047 ✭✭✭Jamiekelly


    Maia controlled him on the ground but Masvidal defended with real confidence, On the feet Maia didn't defend himself in any way. If striking is to be judged first over grappling then Masvidal should have won.

    Judges were having a laugh.

    It's still a title fight so that's the backup for if Jones goes on the binge again or AKA strikes again

    Woodleys last fight was a showcase in two skilled fighters who were terrified of each other.

    DC is starting to make me want to go to bed. Somehow I haven't realised until now how fcuking little he actually contributes to commentary. Cruz is much, much better but I'd like to see Rogan and Grisham on 212, for something different.

    Isn't the entire point of BJJ to look for the sub? He didn't get it, wasn't really that close to getting it. Masvidal went for the KO and nearly got it, in the first round and at the beginning of the third. This shouldn't be a grappling and striking discussion, it's a judging error. Striking comes first, always.

    Andrade is gonna spam wild hooks here for about 8 minutes with the td threat, all or nothing I feel for her, I've Joanna to win 4th or 5th.

    3 is too much anyway and when 2 are useless it's making Rogan worse

    Sooner they get someone permanent the better

    He didn't get the sub due to very good defence from gamebred, but he s close insofar as any small mistake from Jorge, and he was sleeping.

    I hate BJJ even more after tonight. I didn't think that was even possible.
