The main card has been fire. We're back people.

 

[TITS]

Weight bully.

 

[MMA4Life]

This future double champ? He's the real deal! Wait until he dyes his hair... he's making the UFC millions!

 

[generalyum]

Talbott with a great performance, now we're gonna crown his ass. Get on that fucking hype train, folks.

Copping a first class ticket now

 

[Private Whatley]

Getting cracked like that could be a problem when he starts facing power punches though.

Agreed. It wasn’t like saimaan wasn’t landing anything. Talbott was just walking through it. Optically, it didn’t seem like there’d be such a pronounced strength and power discrepancy but once the fight started, it looked like a big brother in there.

Think Saimaan was trying to overwhelm him with pressure and volume but it only allowed Talbott to set up that short counter hook when Saimaan was blitzing in

Saimann's striking style just led him right into doom. Talbott read all those angles.

Nice. I'm up huge on the college bball and NHL tonight and I only bet 1 fight so far. Kilometers Johns. MMA is risky for me with betting. I prefer the other sports. Too many weird ways to lose in MMA

Hearing Reno described as a small city kinda jarred me because everything I know of the area comes from playing Fallout 2 so I assume it was a big metropole.

 

[Siver!]

We now move on to the portion of the card that will tell us if Edmen and Rose have absolutely anything left.

It definitely did. I think Saimann getting hurt so early took some steam off of those strikes as well.

 

[Sparky]

It looked like Talbot really did his homework, but I gotta say I think it was an early stoppage. I'm old school though and maybe the game has changed.

Saimaan was getting countered coming in repeatedly by c-rod, too. These guys just seem to see his entries coming from a mile away.

Y

Yeah, no joke Bruddah. Fun scraps.

 

[KarateYeah]

His anus?

Yeah, I noticed afterwards he has his anus in the front too. Must be pretty handy to just piss & poop in the urinal while standing up

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

saaiman is a power puncher. that's the scary part.

 

[thatdude21601]

Bantamweight is not the division to be a gunslinger who wants to go to war (when you are slow with a dysfunctional kickboxing game).

 

[TITS]

Commercials taking up more airtime than the fights. Want me to bring limes?

 

[KarateYeah]

Charles looked like Frankenstein in that UFC 300 trailer lol

I hit the Maple Leafs over 4 goals tonight at + money.

I think it was late which made it seem early. Talbott dropped him, bounced his head off the mat, Saimann woke up immediately from it, kept defending, albeit half assed, and then ate more punches while moving. Just Tognoni pulling a Herb Dean.
