    Eddie worked wonders to stay alive there another abysmal performance getting lit up like a christmas tree surviving on toughness aint healthy.

    Yeah sure even Eddie admitted it was illegal so surely that's a DQ, intent or not

    Herb deemed it an accidental illegal knee though. Thats why it goes down as a no contest.

    It's all bullsh*t to be honest. This "one hand down with one knee all four points of contact new rules old rules" nonsense needs to be ended. Either you can knee a guy in the head or not. In a sport that allows so much, this always strikes me as nonsense. Pride rules tbh.

    I miss Goldie. Rogan seems less animated since he left as well

    Jack of all trades, master or none is the alternative.

    Maia is a master at his one dimension as you put it. Surely thats worthy of recognition? Besides, he hits hard for "just" a BJJ guy. Condit said it felt like he was being hit by a train.

    I recognise his talent, but I hate watching BJJ.

    So many fights have been ruined by this "martial art".

    Boxing is probably more up your street then, BJJ is a main component of MMA and isnt gonna disappear any time soon. A top BJJ practitioner is as exciting to watch as a knock out fighter if you truly recognise the skill/talent.

    The most effective arts are striking. The most boring arts are BJJ and wrestling related.

    So many great fights have been destroyed. Sad.

    Dick measuring contest, rogan winning a few tkd comps as an 18 year old and thinks hes an expert not to mention receiving a black belt in bjj off his mates Eddie Bravo and Machado, goes on like hes had 50 fights.
    He's mates with JJ and Eddie because he has trained enough with them to get a black belt. Not the other way around. I'd imagine most blackbelts are somewhat friends with their coaches.

    Do you think ''celebs'' with belt ranks are all legit? you have people like Ashton Kutcher paying for privates and getting purple belts to keep the gravy train coming, nobody knows if Rogan is legit considering hes never competed in BJJ Kron and Tom King have so your guess is as good as mine.
    They's plenty of celeb paying for belts and getting ranked to keep them coming. But I'm not sure if I'd include kutcher. He's been at it years. Many celebs are legit high BJJ ranks.

    I think Joe is training years, since before he was ever really a celebrity.

    I hate straight boxing more, but that doesn't mean I can't complain about BJJ.

    Not sure if you lads have discussed this already but the Anik Rogan DC trio just doesn't work. DC won't stfu, Anik is monotone and Rogan sounds fed up. He won't be around for much longer I reckon, Rogan that is.

    The saviour for the UFC commentary team and Joe Rogan would be Mauro Ranallo, perfect replacement for Goldie and more educated than too
