Zero Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Good card. Hope Brown a speedy recovery. Are we destined to see DJ vs. JB a hundred more times? Them, and Dodson are clearly the best 3 guys in the division. 1
TheVileOne Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Well, seeing Johnson vs. Benavidez more times is likely dependent on Benavidez winning this fight, or there being some kind of screwy draw. Otherwise it could be a while.
Craig H Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Matt Brown vs Carlos Condit was the fight I was most looking forward to. It still looks like a fun card anyway. 1
smitlick Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I'm happy to watch Mighty Mouse fight for free plus Faber vs McDonald should be interesting. 1
Fat Spanish Waiter Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I can't stand watching these guys fight
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 11, 2013 Author Posted December 11, 2013 I never knew that. Fascinating. 1
Zero Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 This is basically a WEC card. Ahh the memories.
twiztor Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 wow, lots of little guys on this card. this is only the 2nd time (AFAIK) that WelterWeight is the heaviest division on display. the other was some TUF finale event. not that that's a bad thing, this looks like a great card. just pointing it out.
The Natural Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 This is basically a WEC card. Ahh the memories. This. WEC was terrific. Thinking Joseph gets it this time. Good main card.
Antacular Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 Championship aside, seems like Fight Night 33 had the stronger card. I'm surprised to see the lighter weights dominating a Fox event.
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 13, 2013 Author Posted December 13, 2013 Out of nine Fox shows, only three of them were headlined by a fight ABOVE 155 pounds (1, 2, and 4). Plus, Sacramento is Team Alpha Male country. They could have even thrown somebody like Andre Fili on this card too.
epwar Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 Haha! I was wondering what Dean was ripping off his shorts. That is amazing. Also, Bellator > UFC!
twiztor Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 how the hell did only one judge give Castillo a 10-8 for rd 1? if that's not a clear example then i don't know what is
Zero Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 Cody showing up with a brand new pair of nike basketball shorts with his area code sharpied above the swoosh. Ha
epwar Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 Decision-fest briefly interrupted by Urijah Faber.
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 15, 2013 Author Posted December 15, 2013 Decision-fest briefly interrupted by Urijah Faber. About that...
epwar Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 Mighty Mouse obviously read my post before going out to the cage. That was brutal and easily the most vicious Flyweight KO in history. Trujillo has to be pissed as he was backstage going, "Yes, got the only KO on this show and the main event is definitely going to decision." 1
TheVileOne Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 Mighty Mouse gets my vote as fighter of the year. 1
glfpunk Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 how the hell did only one judge give Castillo a 10-8 for rd 1? if that's not a clear example then i don't know what is Its not like he should have won the fight
twiztor Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 how the hell did only one judge give Castillo a 10-8 for rd 1? if that's not a clear example then i don't know what is Its not like he should have won the fight it makes the difference between a loss and a draw. He CLEARLY earned that 10-8 round, even if he was totally outclassed the next 2. basically, if that round isn't a 10-8, then what does it take to get one? Or god forbid a 10-7?
Antacular Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 When was the last time a 10-7 was handed out?
Fat Spanish Waiter Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 Kalib Starnes is the only one I know of.
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 15, 2013 Author Posted December 15, 2013 When was the last time a 10-7 was handed out? Forrest Petz vs. Sam Morgan?
