I wonder if De Lima's nose is broken or something.

 

[Heel]

But that's not Vinny Magalhaes. Jeez how many Pezaos are there?

Hahaha good point. Pezao is the new Pitbull apparently.

 

[BigKaboom2]

Illegal upkick ignored?

 

[bone_and_sinew]

lol at the ref ignoring a groin shot and an upkick to an opponent on their knees. Vale Tudo up in this bitch!

 

[Heel]

Illegal upkick ignored?

Don't forget the low blow, haha. Horrible.

 

[Fersis]

Illegal upkick ignored?

Mousasi is not pleased.

 

[BigKaboom2]

Missed the low blow, I was switching lamps.

 

[Heel]

I've never seen MAK play it this safe. Thought it was going to be a barnburner...disappointing fight.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

But as a whole, this Strikeforce prelim has been more entertaining than some UFC Fight Nights.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

FUCK YEAH!

 

[Heel]

FUCK YEAH!

MAK openly celebrating decisions...did Jackson get to him?

 

[Fersis]

Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal vs. Roger Gracie
King Mo Wrasslin' Vs Roger Gracie subpar striking and godlike BJJ.

What do you guys think? Gracie by Rear Naked Choke

Hope Gracie wins with a sub.

BJJ IS NOT DEAD

 

[sazabirules]

Come on Killa B.

Yes, I trust Steroid Shane's endorsement when it comes to things to put in my body.

shane carwin looks like he has aids now since he's off the roids

King Mo wins a stand-up affair.

Man, this is going head to head with my girlball game.

Ariel Helwani is saying on twitter that the crowd for this card is beyond sad:

Ariel Helwani
I think I would be very kind if I were to report there were 1,500 people in attendance. Hoping to get an official number soon. #strikeforce

Sorry to report it's a very bad crowd here as the SHO broadcast is about to kick off. By far the worst for a WEC/UFC/SF that I've been to.

 

[yacobod]

Man, this is going head to head with my girlball game.

just make sure you turn on in time to see josh's shoot interview.

 

[Poody]

fuck yeah, its starting!

RIP Strikeforce. There's no reason to keep this company going with this kind of crap.

 

[dream]

1500 paid for a show headlined by Daniel Cormier vs Antonio Silva. Imagine that.

shoulda put "JG" on the card.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

lol at still having Fedor in the intro.

 

[Fifty]

They should have put King Mo on the poster. I think a few more people know who he is at least..plus he's facing a Gracie, and that name sells, even (or especially) to meatheads.

 

[yacobod]

you guys are acting like it wasnt the plan when zuffa bought strikeforce, they didn't buy them to keep it alive.

 

[TheNatural]

If they could get meaningful money to keep it alive they will. But 1,500 in the stands isn't doing that, and probably not any ratings coming from this for Showtime to re-sign.

 

[yacobod]

i think frank looks a lot scarier in HD than mauro, what the hell happened.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

I just laughed for a solid minute after seeing Mauro's chromedome in HD for the first time.

 

[dream]

ffs I wish Dana would put the kibosh on the text polls. they're so bush league.

 

[Fifty]

"striking" is not a fighting discipline!

 

[yacobod]

if they wanted to keep strikeforce alive, they would do the UFC Presents: Strikeforce thing to help promote events.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

"striking" is not a fighting discipline!

what about American Jabbing?

 

[polyh3dron]

I know Healy will win but fuck it.

WARRRRRRR MAXI

 

[Heel]

I like Cormier, but he's about to find out he's not a heavyweight. His only chance is dancing around in a circle with non-committal striking.

 

[WrikaWrek]

Why keep it alive though? Just expand the UFC brand, do more events.

the plan is to have strikeforce do regional shows and stuff, basically be a farm league

afaik

Like an entry route. I can see that.

 

[dream]

Oh shit, it's the buff midget ref.

 

[Donthizz#]

nice kicks..

 

[Beardz]

You can hear the echo

 

[WrikaWrek]

Man, he kept...not dodging the kicks.

 

[Fifty]

Oh shit that was ridiculous..kicks to the head of a downed opponent, when the kicker himself is downed is not something you see often.


And you can hear the echoes in the arena as people boo.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

LMAO bitchslapped by a foot

 

[WrikaWrek]

D.Q man, take it.

 

[ShogunX]

Lol at those rabbit kicks to the face.

 

[AstroLad]

healy was messed up way before little foot taps on his face tho

 

[dream]

Nice sell job...

 

[yacobod]

healy is going to milk it, he was getting his ass kicked
