Doctor Nick posted:Can they do that? I thought only the comission can do that They can't change the verdict AFAIK but they can strip Palhares of the belt and set up Shields vs the Fitch Okami winner for the vacant belt, which is what they said they might do.

I wish Palhares wasn't such a retarded rear end in a top hat and instead was a good person that doesn't hold subs too long. Because holy poo poo, he is one of the most amazing grapplers on the planet and I wish I could be a fan of his.

Keg posted:Explain please, this sounds hilarious. Explaining here since it's about a b-league fighter: You can track down Fox's fight at CFA12 yourself, however: quote:The tables quickly turned in the second. Evans-Smith rocked Fox early and unleashed a flurry of punches and knees from side control, mount and crucifix positions. There was controversy at the end of round, as the referee motioned that the fight was over, but was unable to hear that the bell had rung just seconds earlier. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1808902-transgender-fighter-fallon-fox-loses-via-tko-to-ashlee-evans-smith-at-cfa12 On the broadcast, basically Evans-Smith wrecked Fox's poo poo once, but because of the bell/ref thing, they just let it go to the next round where Evans-Smith promptly wrecked Fox again. As far as the Invicta backstage stuff goes: quote:Fallon Fox showed up to the last Invicta FC event and managed to get inside the area designated for fighters. She acted aggressive towards some of the fighters, so an Invicta FC exec asked her to leave but she refused. quote:Robert Sargent of women's MMA-focused website MMA Rising further corroborated the report, claiming that his own sources attested to the rumor. quote:Although there was seemingly no end to the highlights of Invicta FC 5, it turns out that there was more action brewing in the locker room. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1614222-transgender-mma-fighter-fallon-fox-threatened-bec-hyatt-at-invicta-fc-5

Fallon Fox was trying to set up a fight between her and Bec Rawlins. All of it was an account by Bec. So it made no sense, there was a bunch of emotes and poo poo so whatever. Frankly I think they're both bonkers and don't really care. Bec's off doing cosplay and swimsuit poo poo for UFC and Fallon's gonna fight a few more cans on the freakshow circuit before becoming a professional video gamer.

if you want to argue that Palhares has diminished mental capacity, you better show some reports from medical examiners that have examined Palhares in person. this has nothing to do with Palhares supposedly being mentally challenged and everything with the fact that he's an rear end in a top hat

Rousimar's managers sounds like a Simpson's character with his excuses. "Sure my client has a history of trying to cripple people, but I did talk to him one time about it. We said 'no Rousimar, no', He didn't listen what are you going to do?" http://mmajunkie.com/2015/08/wsof-president-ray-sefo-explains-rousimar-palhares-suspension-manager-responds His wordplay on the suspension was cute, as if he doesn't know they are waiting for the AC response.

This is amazingquote:There are no rules that tell you how far you take a (limb) back or forth,” Davis said. “It’s a very subjective point. But I agree that if we’re looking at the safety of the fighters, and he’s done it time and again and we’ve tried to work with him, and try to make him not do it and he just keeps on doing it, I have to give my hands out to be slapped on that. My client does keep injuring people, and we asked him not to, if you think about it it's really our fault not his

The problem isn't him holding onto it, it's him intentionally trying to hurt his opponents after the fight has ended. Now which one of you would care to join me for a belt of scotch.

I just don't get it. How and why and where does someone become this level of rear end in a top hat? And just over and over again. He's a decent fighter and can catch submissions in impressive fashion, but to crank that poo poo like that repeatedly? Everyone sees it. Including far, far better fighters. The best possible thing that could happen to this motherfucker -- and it would most certainly be the best teaching moment in fight history -- is for someone like Maia or, hell, Frank Mir to catch him in something and completely reverse the joint's direction despite all the taps and ref intervention in the world. Let it go when a cop threatens to taze you. No use for shitheels like this in MMA. He needs a dose of his own medicine, and then maybe he'll learn.
