Unfunny Poster posted:I went to UFC on Fox: Diaz vs Miller at the Izod Center a few years ago and I think I paid $150 for like middle lower arena seating (not floor seating) which was really reasonable. Those prices are a bit silly to me. Then again I bought $50 to see Road FC next month in Seoul so... My roommate is considering dragging me to NYC for Bellator. Last time we saw the UFC was the Fight Night in Portland's Moda Center, and we had eye level seats for about $80-90 apiece. Supposedly we'll have some work to do in NYC to offset the expense, but he's definitely more hyped for it than I am. If we go, and half the headlining fights get cancelled because of the usual fuckery, I'm taking him off the lease before we get home.

Marching Powder posted:worse than the first, better than the second. Fair enough. I just skimmed the second before I shipped it off to my SO. Went through a phase of buying fighter auto biographies, and now I'm not sure what the hell I was thinking. I even have Matt Hughes's. What the hell is wrong with me.

willie_dee posted:It's horrible watching friends fight, a good friend of mine got brutally knocked out in BAMMA last night fighting for the title. His family wanted me sat with them upfront and not with the people I went with for his fight and I just lied and said he looks fine as he could barely stand. He is fine but it wasn't nice. Hard game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tfh-T81LRzk Adam Imhoff is a teammate of mine from back when I traned UFC. I shot that vid, which sucked for me, because our team had a table and I could have been ring-side with them. When I say "our team," I mean a bunch of fighters plus Adam's dad (our kickboxing coach), mom, step-dad, sister, sister's toddler, and girlfriend. The Imhoff family rolls deep. We all freaked the gently caress out the moment the punch landed. I think you can see at the end where the camera goes shaky because The Bull and I were charging down the stairs to join the celebration. Ten seconds later, someone from the adjacent table started howling, "SHUT THE gently caress UP!" at us. The table next to ours was Nick Miller's entire team and family. poo poo. There's a lot of yelling and chest bumping and Adam's dad getting irate, but we managed to calm things down because, y'know, it's MMA. You accept the risk. We apologized for maybe being a little out of line, they apologized for being overly sensitive in the moment, and we all hugged. (God, I miss being in that community.) Then things got more tense. The entire medical team was in the ring with Nick, strapping him to a board, trying to clear his airway, and eventually intubating him. I was off in the corner of our table, DMing Ryan Harkness from Fightlinker all, "Dude, if you see a headline about an amateur fighter dying in the ring tomorrow, call me." Fortunately, Nick regained consciousness in the hospital. Not sure if he ever fought again.

I've seen a number of guys on my team go down from the cup being out of position or smashing things along the way. It's not a force field, it's a piece of hard material floating somewhere near your genitals.

JaySB posted:I'm not sure of Tim Sylvia's grappling acumen but Fabiano Scherner is a legit black belt world champion. Frank Mir snapped his arm, and Arlovski took his belt with a leg lock. So...not great? Unless he's been training like a machine ever since, and I don't think "machine" is a word one would use to describe Tim Sylvia.

Dr. Abysmal posted:Tito retired after beating Sonnen and so far has stayed retired. Which is funny because that fight was the best Tito has looked in a really long time but I guess he went out on a high note in that case if he never does come back. He has been looking decent in recent grappling-only comps.

Theyre frequent, and they play the same lovely bumpers for a serial killer show and bar rescue 2 or 3 times per break. Its annoying just having it on in the background. No wonder the viewership is tanking. Im confident however that the upcoming King Mo vs Bader "fight" will take Bellator to the promised land Huh, the mobile app is alright. Actually works better than Fox Sports Go or NBC Sports.

I liked him until I heard him talking, and after that I just couldn't anymore. I think he was trying to apologize for being a thug as a teenager, but he ended up giggling over how cool he was instead, and ugh no.
