Meisha looked a lot like Carla in the JJ fight. She couldn't get Nunes down and had absolutely nothing for her standing.

I don't watch a lot of UFC but I enjoyed this dumb card. It had booing cause a younger guy kept laying on top of an old dude with a muffin top. It had a good five round decision. It had Brock Lesnar being Brock Lesnar and then causing a dude to get racisms. And them Miesha Tate got rocked to pieces like instantly which ruled. 4/5 stars.

Oh I dunno, make it more points based, maybe instead of one tap out it can be three strikes, etc. more emphasis on technique, etc. I dunno, like, we've had multiple championship matches decided by one single quick stroke and it's too quick to really get excited or interested in what's going on.

Conor wrecking Aldo in 13 seconds was amazing. Ronda murking people left and right in under a minute was incredible. What nunes just did to tate was artwork.

If you get knocked out they just lift you with some ropes from the ceiling until the 3rd round.

I like that I have nothing to compare this to so it was a pretty good show for me. Brock is still Brock, Nunes can hit people hard enough to shave off IQ points, I got to see am indestructible Arab-American man. P cool imo

K8.0 posted:Because Holm is extremely disciplined and Nunes is not. She could beat Ronda, but she would probably lose. She had worse than 50/50 odds to win this fight IMO, she had to light Miesha up early and finish her or she would have gassed and lost the last 4 rounds. Maybe I'm crazy but I still feel like that fight was inches from going the way most of hers do. She had Holm and missed the takedown, one she generally doesn't miss. If she takes Holm to the ground, does anyone see that fight lasting much longer? I like Ronda so I hope she is getting actual training now.

Is this like the world cup where someone watches footie for the first time and has drawn up an entire gameplan on how to make the game "better" when they don't know anything about the sport?

Ronda did get Holm to the ground, but went for an armbar instead of taking Holm's back and Holm slipped out and got back to her feet.

Ok, so what if they put a second ball on the pitch and added downs like American football. And in the last two minutes goals are worth 3 points.

ok sorry, I didn't realize that submissions were actual 'breaking limbs' scenarios and not just holds that the opponent cant get out of. that part I didn't quite get so thanks for clarifying that danger. I really enjoyed watching the Holly holm Vs. Rousey fight and I just want a little more back and forth like that match was since it was two different techniques figuring each other out and countering.

Can someone explain why Miesha tapped so suddenly? The arm was over her mouth and nowhere near her neck and I thought the choke hadn't actually been applied yet, and then she tapped. I thought the RNC involved the arm blocking the flow of blood to the arteries in the neck, but it didn't look like they were in that position yet.

You tap out of submissions because they can break your bones or choke you to sleep. Thats why they are called submissions.

Bluedeanie posted:While we're here in the lull, I have a question for our new friends who came here because of Brock or overall hype. Would you all be interested in some sort of ufc 200 post fight thoughts thread, or even something just highlighting who's cool or good and what to watch next if you're interested in following mma? Like there's so much more to Mark Hunt than has been illustrated by my thread, and you all deserve to know that. This is a good idea, by the way.

It probably hurt really bad and tapping was the only way to make it stop.

Several people have actually had their arms broken when they refused to tap and fighters are regularly choked unconscious, so yeah it's a pretty serious situation
