S00N3R FR3AK Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I can't believe that forrest just walked out after the fight instead of staying in the ring. Though the way silva mocks some of the people he fights isn't much better.

Ji@nBing Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I hate UFC. It should be called UGC because all it is, is grappling now. What was so cool about the first few ones was it was the different types of martial arts, all pit against each other with almost no rules. Now it's just a grapple fest. 99% of the matches are just some guy getting the other in a grapple move and either punching him out or making him submit. You know EXACTLY what's going to happen every time. BORING!!! Before it was so wide open and unpredictable, it was awesome.

Rappy Veteran Posted August 9, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted August 9, 2009 Wow that Silva vs Griffon fight was strange. I'm speechless. The punch that finished Forest was just a tab and he was out, very strange. Yeah that was weird and Silva marches on again who's next?

revvo Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I hate UFC. It should be called UGC because all it is, is grappling now. Yeah, UFC was way more violent when it started during the days of Ken Shamrock... oh well, the other competitors of UFC aren't any better.

TheElite Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 People calling the punch that Forrest got 'light' need to have their eyes checked. It was front on straight in the frontal part of the jaw. Good punch, but sad to see Forrest lose. Silva is without a doubt the best there is. Belfort will have quite a hard time (maybe an impossible one).

trag3dy Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Yeah, it was a straight on punch but Silva was moving away from him so I don't see how there could have been that much behind it. I don't think it was so much that punch that did it but the first two times Silva knocked him down before that. Pretty unbelievable all in all. I wish the fight had lasted longer. And look at this... Anderson Silva to give up title if it means more fights at light heavy weight Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/765252-ufc-101-anderson-silva-vs-forrest-griffin/page/2/#findComment-591406102 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheElite Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 One of the worst stoppages ever in the Sadollah fight. We've seen that guy take a beating time and time again, so him just taking some time to get up didn't mean that he was out of it. If I recall Season 7, Sadollah had a good chin. The ref was too hasty. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/765252-ufc-101-anderson-silva-vs-forrest-griffin/page/2/#findComment-591406200 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though the way silva mocks some of the people he fights isn't much better. Apparently his jaw got dislocated and broken... I wouldn't stand around the ring.

Zoom7000 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Yeah, have to admint Silva was simply amazing. I hope they give his Machida next because that will be a very interesting match up. Really disappointed for Ken Flo. BJ was just way too strong for him. I can't see anyone knocking him off the top of the 155lbs ladder even if he does face Diego Sanchez. Amir Sadollah - No way was that a justified stoppage! The UFC really need to get the old guard refs back in to the Octogon! Bring back Big John McCarthy! He's a free agent too now that Affliction is finished!

trag3dy Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 If you read the link to yahoo sports I posted up there ^ Silva said he doesn't want to fight Machida because they are friends and training partners. However, if Dana White has other plans...who knows? “Lyoto is my friend, he is my brother and there is no way that fight will ever happen,” Silva said.

It's not the UFC and it's not the Ref's.. it's simply dan miragliotta.. he needs to go, he has too many issues like this. My biggest issue with the Sadollah fight was not only that it was stopped to early, but after he initially fell down, ALL (EVERY ONE) of Johnny's punches were to the back of Sadollah's head.. every single punch, watch it over again. Now how can dan miragliotta not step in and give Johnny a warning or take a point from him instead of just calling the fight.. it was brutal. Regarding BJ.. i really think sanchez is gonna take care of him.

S00N3R FR3AK Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Wait you can't punch the back of the head? If thats against the rules I could see him not calling it but when a fighter goes down and stops blocking punches I can see the ref stepping in. Yeah I thought it was a bad call but they gotta make that choice quick.

Bubbabyte Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 No you most definitely can NOT punch the back of the head.. and every shot once sodallah went down was to the back of the head. Sadollah was doing his best to get back to his feet and covering his face, it's all he could do to get up, he has no reason to protect the back of his head because it's an illegal blow. Watch it again and see all the punches to the back of the head.

Regarding BJ.. i really think sanchez is gonna take care of him. Don't forget Yves Lavigne. Him and Dan Miragliotta seem to be the main 2 refs these days with the odd appearance by Herb Dean for main events. What happened to Steve Mazzagatti, Mario Yamasaki and the others? They might have made their own bad decisions, but they were no where near as bad as the new crop!
