I can never quite tell if Hunt puts his arms down after a knockout punch because he's gassed or because he absolutely knows his opponent is out. Maybe it's both since it's the heavyweight division.

After the Tuchscherer fight he said he can just "feel it" when a guy is done. He also said that he feels a weird momentary depression when he finishes a fight, so it could be either.

Oooh me too! Those were hilarious and I'll keep following him until he stops doing it (my guess is after it gets him ko'd ....let's say twice).

I'm pretty sure even if you did cut his head off he'd throw at least five more wild hooks before it hit the ground.

He wasn't trying to be intimidating, he was just fired up. This fight made me a bigger Condit fan.

That was definitely trying to be intimidating. The look in his eyes, the slight grimace, the flexing. Overboard or showboating? No, but everything about that physically says "you've done nothing to me, now I am going to hurt you." Condit has class, he isn't going to attempt to get into someone's head by being an asshat like Sonnen or Koscheck. At that point in the fight he had to do something to make it look like he was doing good. Not that he didn't or that Hendricks dominated him, but he was losing. Showing Hendricks that he was neither hurt nor willing to admit defeat was important. So he did that.

Reminds me of this:



That was such a good fight. For anyone who didn't see it, that staredown was at the beginning of the third, after Huerta survived this:



Then he beat the poo poo out of Guida in the third round and choked him out (couldn't find a gif of that, unfortunately).

I've always said this. It is so bizarre to me that Frank and Ken are both adopted and Frank is Mexican, yet they look related. They look like brothers, It's really weird.

And I think my head is burning,

To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
