HERE WE GO!
Unexpected!
Bad pick on my end.
yes..I have addressed your points...about the gloves...comparisons to boxing....so what? I post what I wish for others to see and maybe learn something. You don’t own this post nor site. Thank you.
That right there is why I watch UFC.
I have learned something tonight.
Fabian is an idiot.
That’s funny....and UFC is still a brutal mess of angry men...giving some bloody combat for the pleasure of the darkness in people. I used to enjoy it too, until I saw it was simply my darkside that loved it! Wow.
I have Shields here but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Lombard pull out a win.
My points were: MMA is research and development for law enforcement.
It demonstrates what works and what doesn't.
It is useful for learning hand to hand fighting techniques useful for real life situations.
Real life is brutal.
If you are insulated from real life good for you.
Some of us have been or are currently out there living it.
For a pansey like you to project your pansey little perspective on real life warriors is incredibly insulting to real men.
You stink Sir.
oh that’s a bunch of BS...you love watching it for entertainment, no? Are you denying that? A well skilled and calm police officer can do quite well without seeing two men beat it out in a cage and pound and ground each other. Give me a break. And I am no pansy, sir. I have done my share of boxing, been in the ring with a few former pros. At least in those sparring sessions, the gloves are big in order to protect each other.
Shields not looking good early on. I just finished my Cheetos and kept thinking about that bacon wrapped asparagus.
Just started here in the Philippines on a “Balls” channel. Love the UFC, just can’t get into the chick fights. Normally turn the channel when they come on. Wish the UFC would dump those fights. If I wanted to see chicks fight, I’d put my ex girlfriends in the octagon and tell them the loser had to take me home.....would be a hell of a fight LOL
I’m personally not into the ladies fights either but oh well. I remember Dana saying there would never be any ladies fights in the UFC. Well, Dana has said a lot of things that he’s backtracked on. Oh never mind!
I love the idea of the ex-gf fights. Loser takes ex-bf home. Talk about motivation!!!
Lombard is a big time badass.
I underestimated him.
LOL!
Lombard is a powerful beast and a good judoka but he has had poor cardio in the past.
Come on Shields!
Lombard is dominating but he has some real flaws in his ground game and this fight is moving predictably.
