Is anybody watching Shooto 58, because this has been hilariously awful so far. Questionable officiating aside, the arena had a blackout in the middle of a fight.

Does anyone remember the name of that old Pride highlight that had the fighters cast in a 70's heist film?

Feather-fisted Dutch supermutant Rico Verhoeven makes his MMA debut today against a kickboxer who also has no MMA experience who is much, much, much worse at kickboxing than Rico.

It'll be streamed here, I'm not sure where on the card the fight is but the stream apparently starts in 3 hours and 10 minutes

Currently watching dancers along with 218 other youtubers on 720p streaming, how do these guys have a better stream than most productions?!

Edit: lol they are literally just filming dancing asses and random pretty girls in the crowd whilst blasting Techno music. Production quality is better than the SFL.

In November of 2014 NJSACB utilized instant replay at CFFC 43. The main event that night was ruled a no contest because Lyman Good inadvertently poked Jonavin Webb’s eye causing the referee to stop the fight. Just a few moments later, the fight was ruled a no contest following the review of the instant replay.

This Halloween, at CFFC 52, NJSAB is conducting an experiment with a new judging procedure. The judging procedures come up often among fans and media members. It seems as though you can’t get through an event with out that kind of conversation.

Counsel Nick Lembo and Commissioner Larry Hazzard made their own personal observations and they also listened to feedback from licensed judges, comments from the media serving as shadow judges at events, and had conversations with executives in the industry.

This progressive move to attempt to improve the judging process has nothing to do with any current licensed judges under the NJSACB.

“This agency has been pleased with both the quality of judging and our judging roster in this State, but we recently have wondered about the effects of blocked views, limited angles, sight distance and to a small degree, crowd noise,” Lembo and Hazzard stated.

[...]

“I’ve often wondered if the hometown crowd and the limited viewing angles in which a judge sees the fight swayed the decision process,” stated CFFC CEO Robert Haydak Jr.

“This experiment, obviously in its first step of actual implementation, will provide data gathering by allowing the review and comparison of three experienced NJSACB judges’ cage side scores, which will still be the official scores, with the scores of three experienced NJSACB judges in sound proof isolated rooms who will be viewing and scoring the fight on a large television monitor showing the actual broadcast without audio commentary,” continued in the statement released from the NJSACB exclusively to CFFC.

“We’re fortunate in New Jersey to have such a proactive commission,” stated Haydak. “Nick and Larry have embraced this idea from the very beginning and are now spearheading the efforts to see it to fruition.”

I doubt this is going to get any kind of widespread uptake but it's cool to see an AC actually experimenting.
