With Smilin Sam!
lol at the Jon Jones rule at 1:25
Smilin Sam KO Weidman imo Dana give him the call.
"I'm going to give Chris Wideman the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't intentional"
"Those fighter who eyepoke do it strategically"
Smiling Sam makes a pretty convincing case. I have no idea how the same guy could make both of these statements in the same video, especially after Chris finished the fight with, not one, but two back to back eyepokes.
After listening to this, I think maybe the best way to handle these situations is to stop the right and use the replay for the judges to decide if it was intentional, with a strong burden of proof required to rule unintentional. If deemed intentional, instant disqualification. This will force fighters to really train for, and be mindful of, keeping the hands closed when stretching them out toward their opponent.
He shit on Jon Jones enough to make up for it. imho lol"I'm going to give Chris Wideman the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't intentional"

enforce the existing rules. fingers outstretched towards opponent? a warning. do it again? point taken. eye pokes, which mind you happen when the fighter is already breaking a rule - automatic point deduction.
fighters will learn immediately to keep their fingers close to their palms.
Yup. People do it because the know they can get away with one or two of them. All it takes is the refs to just do their fucking job.enforce the existing rules. fingers outstretched towards opponent? a warning. do it again? point taken. eye pokes, which mind you happen when the fighter is already breaking a rule - automatic point deduction.

he might still be a bit concussed from his last fight two weeks ago. He was also fouled badly by a headbuttEver the company man. I don't expect him to talk shit on the UFC's anything, including their gloves. He's right on most of that though. At best, pawing out with your fingers out is shit technique.
On other note, dude is sounding rough.
Yeah. Arroyo talked too much shit after that performance.he might still be a bit concussed from his last fight two weeks ago. He was also fouled badly by a headbutt
after Aroyyo ran away from him like a little Beetch.
and still...
