If you think someone effectively striking for a minute and then getting their back taken for four is going to or should win a decision, you are even dumber than I took you for.

You're getting all emotional and angry because you're interpreting this as an attack on your authority when I'm just chatting. You don't need to insult me just talk.

Ratios and Tendency posted:

Big John repeats ad nauseum that damage is the major determining factor that judges are really looking at to determine effectiveness and heavy strikes do a lot more damage than failed sub attempts or single legs or whatever, so even if striking doesn't have official weighting over grappling, it does in practice.

John McCarthy posted:

John McCarthy, the godfather of MMA officials and a man who helped pen the unified rules of the sport, teaches in his seminars that judging rounds is done by the following criteria, in descending order: effective striking and effective grappling, ring or cage control, and then effective aggressiveness. Only if the striking and grappling are equal do you then even consider the latter two items.

What defines effective striking? There's another misconception. Yes, it is damage. The "d" word is never written specifically in the unified rules, because at the time leaders were afraid state athletic commissions would shy away from the sport because of the raw terminology. Effective grappling is defined by significant submission attempts more than position.

He says "effective" means "damage" specifically in the context of striking, not grappling, dipshit.

I'm not getting emotional, I'm insulting you because you're wrong about something that has been explained in these threads numerous times and is very easy to understand, which suggests to me that you are a dumbass. If you don't like being insulted when you post badly, I would suggest posting better, or less.

I really love armbar finishes in the UFC. They're pretty hard to come by lately

I feel like the prelims have over-delivered for what this card is.

I was expecting a lot of fun matches, although one of them being a heavyweight match was a bit of a surprise, I must admit

Jones has a good chin so unless it really deteriorates once he stops taking steroids it would probably be a decision, 49-46 conor

The first time I typed that I accidentally wrote 'JO' and I think Conor could do that too.

Great guillotine, Smolka even went after the elbow to try and fight out of it but Moreno had it set. I love choke scrambles.
