Triticum Guzzler posted:Well, this is an odd one. Remember that Korean guy that was supposed to fight Nick Diaz a million years ago on the Frank Shamrock/Cung Le card, but ended up getting guillotined in seconds by Drew Fickett? He just retired Mach Sakurai, but wasn't even supposed to be fighting. what was the catchweight and how badly did he blow it?

outy posted:Alvarez is a guaranteed increase in PPV buys because you always get high drama. Every fight of his is like watching a bar fight on CCTV in fast-forward, he always gets knocked out then bounces back up like he's just used an extra life. ok, so i'm assuming that eddie alvarez is probably at least kinda well known by the bellator audience. does him being on a show boost their ratings at all?

I think its probably a good idea to see if askren can hang with competition better than jason high before signing him. If the roster is over stuffed why not wait until after some other dudes have washed out and askren beats like dennis kang standing on paulo filho's shoulder ir whatever

Askren's scrambly style also plays directly into marcelo's strengths. Assumably askren would do better now after a few more years of training, but its hard to predict what better would mean

well if miller did someone beat jake, just imagine how knocked out he would have gotten by dan henderson

for reference watch the mendes/shields video, and reconsider how close miller was to actually getting that choke

also i don't read yuriy's posts but when doing written play by play "the black guy" is stupid unless you've already identified which guy is black. and willie: describing someone as like the "fiery redhead" or the "shiny baldman" or whatever is also stupid. its not prose, its play by play.

joe smith vs chad walters, professor rodnus' fight league 26: battle of the battlers the salt & pepper brit comes out swinging. he is promptly taken down by the black. the asian in the crowd looks bored. the tattooed behemoth from langley is really taking control of this fight. the action is incredible. finally, the referee steps in and stops the fight after a flurry catches the guy with the tattoo of a weird bug on his calf with his hands down.

like if someone referred to saul alvarez as "the mexican" no one who didn't already know who he was would have any clue what the gently caress you are talking about. corner/colour is much more obvious and clear for so many reasons.

like i don't know if you've read summaries of action in other sports before, but what they do is: they describe the action by clearly identifying the people involved and clearly describing the action. yuriy clearly likes his terrible mma but his posts are bad because they don't convey any information to anyone who isn't watching Zutroy's Combat Silo with him.

Captain Log posted:This is all why if I'm pointing someone out of a group of people to a friend I'm sure to say, 'The person who just leaned slightly to the left with a wistful gaze" rather than, "The black/bald/old/bearded/one-eyed guy." Those people can see the guys. People reading posts cannot. They have no visual reference. That's why it is not useful written play-by-play or summaries. You should re-read the posts I made perhaps more carefully.
