It is really quite sad that Cummins fought DC.

Jesus look at that gap-tooth, that is so huge it looks fake.

Yeah, I know, but it looks like he just blacked it out or something. The hole in his smile is enormous.

I highly doubt that will happen.

On the other hand, we've got The Librarian fight next, which is a cool enough name that I'll root for him.

Oh jesus the glasses, I withdraw my approval.

Tuck is going to have some very sore ribs tomorrow. Librarian has been working the same spots over and over, and some of those knees were big.

Library man needs to commit to his jabs. He's just sticking is arm weakly out and getting countered.

I like how Jon Tuck is one of those names that you have to say the full thing every time you address him.

Scotty! Didn't know he was fighting tonight. I have a soft spot for the guy from his WEC days.

Spot is consciously not putting both hooks in. When he gets the back he'll put one in, but not the other even if its wide open. Is the rationale to maintain mobility, so he won't end up on the bottom?

Count Roland

Well, that was a good fight, glad I watched. I'm happy Scot won.

Yes, a lot of wrestlers won't put hooks in so they won't get reversed.

A lot of wrestlers just won't put hooks in at all. Which makes a lot of sense, especially because people usually guard against the hooks. I don't recall seeing this one-hook-only business though.

If you're talking about hooking the near-side leg only, that happens all the time.

No I don't mean that either.

Scotty there had fully taken the back; he had the seatbelt or other grip, was completely behind his opponent, and had one hook in. He wasn't riding the turtle position; he had the back, just with one hook out. A bit curious.

Oh man not this ref again.

God these fights suck real bad. If the baby Pettis fight stinks I'm gonna start drinking a lot.

This fight right now sucks, there have been good ones though. I have hopes for Sergio.

Tuck vs Lindsey was back and forth for the first two rounds with a pretty good pace, even though both guys were exhausted. Then it had a really funny finish. What more do you want out of prelim fights?

There was interesting stuff in that fight too. The Librarian had neat but stilted skills. He had great escapes from the bottom and really good knees from the clinch. He was seriously lacking in other areas, but I enjoyed watching the fight.

That was not very fun to watch.

For some reason I didn't realize I could watch the main card on fight pass. Time to get more beer!

So eye pokes are legal in this fight?

That cut looks fairly bad.

edit: actually it looks small and inconsequential.

I hate the rule, but that replay certainly looked like 12-6 to me.

Shoot, I was rooting for Edwards. Hallman's got some skill but he fights pretty dirty from the looks of things.
