Can't see from the angle but that type of choke is usually putting a lot of pressure on your trachea

I permanently lost an entire octave of vocal range because I tapped too late to a short RNC like that. They're no joke.

I'd imagine getting choked by Josh Barnett is not pleasant and you'd want to end that pretty fast. Especially that kind of grip.

He was wiping sweat from his other eye not pointing to it.


Edit: Were any of the early prelims worth watching?

Flat forearm across the front of the throat, like Fedor/Fujita.

while this is still open i want to say that it's been 10 years and i'm still aggrieved that crocop was roundly considered to be the fighter of the year in 2006 for beating up minowa, yoshida, wanderlei, and then eye poking josh barnett. whereas barnett beat up nakamura, aleks, hunt, nogueira, got poked in the eye, beat up nastula and the nsac drug test, and then fought nogueira again in his 7th fight of the year.

Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.

Same. That was an absolutely insane and underappreciated year for Barnett.

Competition training, this was back when I was a purple.

I can't believe that never happened. I guess browne / JDS isn't awful either. I'm assuming a Werdum win gives him a title shot.

nah not so sure, Cain looked better than ever with his win over Browne at 200 and Cain is a fresh matchup for either Stipe or Overeem. And that UFC would probably like to have a Mexican heavyweight champion again.

Werdum likely is gonna need one more win after this next Browne one. Werdum vs Barnett wouldn't be bad, but then I'm not sure what you do with JDS

WHO ABUSED HIM. WHO ABUSED THE BOY.
Missed the card but saw the gifs. No shame for Arlovski tapping instantly to a decapitator RNC from Barnett of all fighters.

bader remains that extra-bouyant turd you can never completely flush, and no one knows why hes in the bowl to begin with other than it's manufactured by 'LHW Industries'

I know, it's crazy with how long they've both been fighting and largely in the same places. And weirdly I think it's an even better match now than it has been in the past, what with Werdum's improved standup and cardio.

Yeah, I just reread the OP and found out it was in the afternoon. I thought they were all held at night and the afternoon fights were just prelims.

Oh well, I had a nice time out with my wife at the local flea market. I bought a pocket watch for $12 that owned. :3:
