		<description>Damn, you guys are rough.  The kid is 23 and has a hell of a record as a world class wrestler.  Last I heard, this was called Mixed martial arts - If I wanna see boxing I will go to a f**(ing boxing match.  I would love to see any of you take down Herring - guarantee you would wet yourself just stepping in the ring.  Give the kid a break!  I think the fight will be much better than anyone thinks - yes it may be a boring fight - but let the kid develop he has to start somewhere.  Go O'Brien kick his ass!</description>

		<description>In case some people didnt see the O brian , Herrin fight, I'll recap because I think O bRian did a great job, against a great fighter and doesnt deserve such a bad rap for being a lay and pray guy. If you wanna accuse someone of that go pick on the HUghes, ortiz', or Sherks who get one take down a round and then lay in side control or stay in the guys full gaurd the rest of the round, as you can see from this recap, O brian stayed more then busy.

Round 1-(IM only going to recap what O Brian did since Herring did nothing except throw the left jab when he wasnt even close, and a few sloppy high kicks)Obrian was also feeding Herring shots the whole time, and although they could have been better, did manage to bloody Herrings face up by the second round- Round 1-Take down, pass to side control,mount, takes back,attempts choke, stand up, take down to side control
Round 2 take down quickly to mount gets back, mounts, take down, gets back, gets mount 
Round 3-take down, to mount, reversal, side control, elbows, gets back, gets take down to mount reversal, side control, mount.</description>

		<description>[quote comment="329577"][quote comment="328919"]Anomaly: The Lindland news was posted 2 spots before your post addressing me...check it out. The post starts with...

My Beef with Dana White... All I can say is, forget seeing Lidland in the Octagon.[/quote]
This is terrible news, Linland did great agaisnt Rampage, and not bad at all agasint Fedor given the size diff, I would love to see him mix it up with Hendo in a grappling WAR, that is my dream, thoughts on whos greco Roman wrestling is superior?

I would have to say Linland's slightly, as his loss to Rampage was slightly more controversial than Hendo's. But Hendo's striking is so much better in an MMA bout it could more than even things out.[/quote]


Lindland would have done a lot better against fedor if fedor hadn't illegally grabbed onto the ropes and used them to turn the takedown around. if he hadn't done that, lindland would have been on top and not the other way around.</description>

		<description>[quote comment="327287"][quote comment="327278"]I think AA will come out looking for blood. Hey, it's his last fight with the UFC, so he's going to want to put on a dramatic, quick show. Then give Dana the finger as he leaves the cage.[/quote]

Yeah, we think that in any of his fights.. than we have three rounds of nothing..[/quote]

--which one of his many fights are you refering to? Most ive seen have been exciting in my opinion. it sounds you are basing your opinion only on the last couple of fights... werdum makes others boring because of style. also, the maniac wasnt making it exciting either since he didnt want to go in there and throw punches with him. So dont just blame AA, the fighters and their styles make it what it is... 

i keep saying throw him some strikers and u ll b eating ur comments in no time about AA. Dana white is not stupid, he doesnt want to pay him so hes doing everything he can to not see AA succeed, hence the style of fighters he has been getting as of recently, although he has been beating all of them</description>

		<description>I think o'brien will have a hard time getting arlovski down, he won't be like herring, arlovski is very athletic and fast, it should be a very interesting fight.</description>

		<description>[quote comment="327849"][quote comment="327301"]jake o'brien is a lame fighter, all he did against herring was form tackle herring like a football player every chance he got and that was all he did. no ground and pound even. it sucks that a fighter can get points that way, he beat herring on points but by no means did he beat up heath herring, just beat him on cowards points[/quote]

thank you now i don't have 2 say anything.[/quote]

Once again, the UFC has to adjust its scoring system. No points should be awarded for a takedown if the fighter doesnt do anything with the top position. I would award points to the fighter who got taken down and fought his way up to his feet with out incurring any damage. PRIDE scoring system was a much better way of judging MMA IMO. IF the UFC judges could adopt the PRIDE scoring system and judge the fights with some integrity, thenm I feel it would be a better scoring system for the UFC, then the one currently in place.</description>
