Stupid fight by Akiyama. Seemed like he was just trying to win on points or something. Terrible.

 

[The Faceless Master]

30-27 Jake

and lol @ fencegrabbiyama

No way man

you were saying?

 

[Diprosalic]

If you get outstriked by Jake Shields you should seriously contemplate retirement.

the ufc will cut him anyway...

 

[EraldoCoil]

Shields takes it...

 

[iddqd]

I think Shields got it but he is cleary "not there" at the moment.
Maybe he should go back up to 185.
The new 170 breed of wrestling dudes with KO powr would fuck him up.

 

[Brinbe]

No surprise there

 

[op_ivy]

i guess i feel that defending takedowns should earn the defender points. silly me

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Yep, Shields. He constantly outstruck Akiyama.

Not impressed but Shields gonna Shields. Seriously though, Aki grabbed the cage at least 3 times to save a takedown. That's ridiculous.

Agreed. He looks tired immediately at 170.

 

[Saiyar]

Outstruck by Shields, time for Sexyama to retire.

 

[Fifty]

That fight made me a Jake Shields fan. He wasn't dominating, but his persistence was impressive.

 

[Instro]

Stuffing Jake Shields take downs, but still losing to him is embarrassing.

 

[SyNapSe]

30-27? wooww. Shields showing how throwing limp nothing strikes while attempting the devastating MMA "takedown" is a win.

seriously

 

[Diprosalic]

this was one of the worst fights i have ever seen.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

As opposed to throwing a handful of punches, tripping someone for 3 seconds, and grabbing the fence to protect against takedowns?

 

[Cipherr]

i guess i feel that defending takedowns should earn the defender points. silly me

No I definitely agree with that. But shields took over in the third, enough to get the victory easily. He evened up the number of takedowns, tried a few submissions, and his opponent grabbed the fence twice.

The bolded isnt being fair, those were some fucking legit full takedowns. The rest I have to agree with though.

i feel the guy pressing the action and landing punches should earn points

better than backpedaling and the 2 fence grabs nullify the 2 trips

 

[Purexed]

Nice job by Sheilds. Didn't think he'd win using the standup, even if his punches were pillow fists.

 

[Luixfern]

That translator lady is hypnotizing...

 

[AiTM]

Jake Shields wins via more hand touches.

Cant call it striking

that isnt how ufc is scored though. i'm not arguing that akiyama should have won though

 

[Instro]

Akiyama so sad

 

[yacobod]

k1 jake shields strikes again.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Line is all the way down from +225 to +140 on Bader. I'm tempted to take him but I think I'd rather just root for Rampage to actually try again.

 

[JB1981]

This card is way too fucking long. Hope they never do 7 fights again

 

[woober]

Yeah, Akiyama looks so disappointed. I sorta feel bad for him.

 

[Purexed]

Sexiyama looks like he's going the route of the failed samurai...

 

[WaltJay]

Damn, I forgot about Chieck's fight. This PPV is going to last forever!

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

Sexyama.

Korea am disappoint.

 

[tass0]

Hunt by KO

I agree'd with Rogan in that Akiyama should have taken a point penalty for holding the fence. He probably did as much damage as Shields. That was the boxing score of the world. Throwing for throwing out shots sake. It can apparently score for you.

 

[Andiie]

This could be awesome, would love to see Hunt take it.

 

[Dysun]

jake shields cant take you down, lose striking battle
seppuku

 

[Caspel]

This card is way too fucking long. Hope they never do 7 fights again

no way. At the price of HD, I want more fights. Even though I could do w/o Shields/Akiyama. Should have had Gomi on the main card instead.

 

[MyAbsolution]

Jake shields outstruck GSP in the last two rounds of their fight... i guess GSP should retire too???

Cmon guys lol

 

[Luixfern]

Sexyama.

Korea am disappoint.

If only he was from Best Korea he would have won.

 

[thefro]

Might still end in 3 hours, so I disagree. I like how they're keeping things moving for the most part.

 

[op_ivy]

i hate you

 

[Eggo]

k1 jake shields strikes again.

LOL, K1 Shields almost outstruck cyclops GSP. Believe. It's Mark Hunt time. Is Pride still alive? I love Mark Hunt 2.0.

 

[TheKaeptain]

If only he was from Best Korea he would have won.

Chitown is going to kill you for that.

 

[Instro]

Kongo is gonna blast him.

"Akiyama was cheated at UFC 144 by Jake shields who used his dry humping technique for 3 rounds which ended up as a fourth loss in a row for him, leading to him being cut from the UFC." - Akiyama's Wikipedia

 

[knee]

If fenciyama didn't dye his hair between weigh-ins and fight time, he might've won.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

I agree'd with Rogan in that Akiyama should have taken a point penalty for holding the fence. He probably did as much damage as Shields. That was the boxing score of the world. Throwing for throwing out shots sake. It can apparently score for you.

but the problem is Akiyama didn't even throw much at all. If he rocked Shields or even knocked him off balance a few times then cool, there'd be an argument, but he did 2 trips that Shields used as takedown opportunities and that's it. Shields just sucks at taking a punch so he flails. Aki was way too timid.

I'm in a hot, overcrowded bar with nowhere to sit. It sucks. Just want to see Frankie fight and get the hell out of here

 

[ShaunBRS]

Please win Mark Hunt. Pleeeaaase.

 

[dem]

This card is like a tv reunion show where half the cast doesn't show up

 

[Norml]

This shouldn't last long.

Don't blink!
