I only noticed that last week, too.I just now realized that Silva vs Stann is a light heavyweight fight. Hopefully Wanderlei has been working on his conditioning
Just cut the bullshit and go to tournments like Bellator does. The UFC and its matchmaking is a fucking farce.

Hunt got subbed by Fedor and Sean McCorkle (in 1 minute). And had two terrible performances against Rothwell and Chris Tuchscherer. Not to mention his lucky punch over Kongo.
Against Struve who is on a hot streak with 4 straight wins over Barry, PeeWee, The Rock and CroCop. All finishes. Struve will choke this fool out in the first round.
who ya crappin?

Bigfoot Silva got KOed by Cain and Cormier. And had two terrible performances against Werdum and Pele. Not to mention his lucky punch over Fedor.
Against Overeem who is on a hot streak with 4 straight wins over Lesnar, Werdum, Dufee and Rodgers. All finishes. Overeem will KO this fool out in the first round.
who ya crappin?
Are you really comparing Big Foot and Overeem to Struve and Hunt? Lmao. I'm done here.
no, i'm showing how fuckin retarded your MMAth is, using "this and this guy subbed this one, so this other guy will too because he subbed this other guy".
you'll be cherished at the Sherdog forums, though. go there.

So it's like a Machida fight?
MMAth?
Yeah it has nothing to do with Struve being an established grappler with 16 of his 24 wins by submission and Hunt's 7 of 8 losses being by submission. Did I mention Sean McCorkle?
oh man, you're right. like the submission machine Aoki vs Nagashima, Aoki subbed the kickboxer with a... oh wait, he ate a fuckin knee and went down like a turd.
dude, it's 2013. you should know by now match-ups and stats mean shit, it's what happens inside the cage that matters.
Like when Hunt got ktfo by a middleweight?
I'm not sure Struve has this in the bag even if he doesn't trade punches like a retard. He's more of a clinch takedown guy and I don't see that happening against someone as strong as Hunt.

Like when Hunt got ktfo by a middleweight? Yeah sure Struve is a 1 dimension grappler who can't strike worth a shit and only scoot on his butt.
exactly. you just disproved your point by proving mine using this fight as an example. thank you, for a minute i lost hope you would get it.
Big Dave Meltzer said:Over 400,000....they're absolutely thrilled. The show, it was...they had predicted 250. Budgeted 250, I shouldn't say predicted. But I mean, the predictions internally were 250-300. So they blew away their predictions, big time. It's..uh..yeah..it's not as big as I've seen some numbers floating around, it wasn't THAT big, but if you think about what all things considered it was enormous. It was a huge success. Actually, the reality is that it was probably...there was a very good chance that the promotion of Rousey was TOO successful because she's been offered a role in the next...whatever it is...the next Hunger Games movie that they're going to film. And once that happens it's like...you know, who knows? She's making a lot of money fighting, I don't know what those numbers are going to be when they come out when they're released. But she's making a ton of money. They signed her to a hell of a contract because they really did believe...not necessarily that she'd be this giant PPV draw, but in other ways she'd be incredibly valuable to the company. And so far she has turned out to be more valuable than they expected.
...
They're expecting big replay buys. Big replay buys means 25,000-30,000 more than they have right now. It could do mid fours, maybe more, but that's a nice number to say. Put it that way.
That's twice what some Negative Nancys predicted. Then again they probably should have waited until after the buy rate estimates came out to estimate the buy rates.
I'll remember not to use MMA math or use stats or match-ups to guess which fighter may win before a fight happens so as not to offend our good friend Lambda Piscium. I'll be using this thread exclusively to talk about fights after the fact.
exactly. you just disproved your point by proving mine using this fight as an example. thank you, for a minute i lost hope you would get it.
The only point you made is that Hunt got ktfo by a middleweight. A bad one at that.
I call for a Hunt x Struve loser leaves town match between us. What say you?!
People use stats to justify all sorts of shit in sports. And I'll point out VoxPop only used them to justify his prediction after the fact rather than initially. I'd assume he knows they aren't gospel, either. But stats can be useful if they aren't abused.i have no problem with pre-fight discussion, i just find it sad that people use stats as gospel and be-all-end-all.
and MMAth is dumbfuckery.
Nothing gets panties in a bunch faster than MMA Math. Nothing.But MMAmath (X lost to Y, Y lost to Z so X will easily beat Z) is sad. And it should just be called Sportsmath because people have been doing that in every sport since the dawn of time and it's never been consistent. It's a good way to troll over-excited fans though.
The whole G) no response got old half a thread ago.
I don't even know what the source of the meme is.
Friend you called every number in the book.
