[Centraal] MMA topic #155 UFC147 vernaggelt door blessures

Overigens ook gewoon chill dat t bij een paar klappen blijft en niet dat er iemand dood gaat

Klopt, die purple belt blijft heel erg netjes.

(Ondanks dat hij met een hele rare stem schreeuwt. )

''In some locales a choke can be considered lethal force so depending on the laws in the area you may be better off snapping limbs than putting someone to sleep. It's pretty stupid imo but I read an article a while back about someone who was fighting an attempted murder charge after applying a RNC to an attacker, even though they let go after the opponent was out. I can't remember where I read it but I'll try to find and post.''

Iemand enig idee hoe dit in Nederland zit?

Brittney is schijnbaar jarig

Zit hier best of ufc2009 te kijken uit verveling, die partij tussen silva en griffin wtf... Echt mooi om weer eens terug te zien. Echt pijnlijk om te zien dat klasseverschil. Anderson zn bob & weave game is echt insane....

Ze heeft gewonnen van die jongens?

Irritante instructeur als je niet tegen mensen kan die nog niet goed zijn, iets in zijn ogen niet juist doen kies dan een ander beroep/vrijetijdsbezigheid

Zorobabel Moreira on Grisly Roger Huerta Soccer Kick KO: ‘I Did Not Want to Throw the Kick’



After a two-day span that featured back-to-back UFC shows, few could've expected one of last weekend's most enduring images to have come from halfway across the world. But then again, few could have foreseen an image as primal as Zorobabel Moreira's soccer kick knockout of Roger Huerta at ONE FC 4.

Moreira, a decorated jiu-jitsu champion, was well on his way to a second-round victory over the fading American, who was badly battered and surprisingly outclassed in the stand-up game. Huerta valiantly fought back, but was soon out on his feet after eating another unanswered salvo of strikes, in a scene eerily reminiscent of Joe Warren's loss to Pat Curran.

His opponent crumpled on the mat on all fours, Moreira, along with ringside announcer Renzo Gracie, believed the fight was over, as Huerta was clearly no longer capable of defending himself. Yet referee Yuji Shimada gave no signal of a stoppage.

"I stopped to look at the referee," Moreira explained to MMAFighting.com.

"He was yelling ‘low kick' to me. After he yelled it, I kicked."

What ensued was a moment ripped straight from Pride Fighting Championships. Moreira reluctantly threw the soccer kick, it connected on Huerta's skull with a sickening thwack, and "El Matador" collapsed in a heap. The fight was over.

ONE FC's rule set combines the North American unified rules with the soccer kicks and stomps of Pride, however fighters must wait for a referee's open attack signal before using the more violent maneuvers on downed opponents. Though in Huerta's case, the potential for soccer kicks should have never come into play, if not for sloppy refereeing.

"I did not want to throw the kick," Moreira confessed. "I thought the referee was going to stop the fight. But when he yelled ‘low kick' to me, I kicked. It was reflex.

"I was hoping the referee was going to stop the fight. But my coaches train us to finish the fight and they tell all of us don't stop until the referee stops the fight."

Several fighters, Moreira included, have expressed their love of ONE FC's mishmash rule set, which harkens back to glory days of Asian MMA, and "Zoro" affectionately calls, "the best rules." Yet while the visceral nature of the knockout has essentially overshadowed what was the best performance of the Brazilian's career, Moreira tries not to concern himself with headlines.

"I don't know how to read English very well," he said. "Some people have told me about the news of the KO. I read most the Brazilian websites. I don't spend much time on the Internet. I stay in the academy at Evolve MMA all day."

As for Huerta, Moreira has yet to speak to the 29-year-old since their co-main event clash, however ONE FC founder Victor Cui confirmed he is fully recovered from the knockout blow.

"Victor Cui told me that Roger was 100-percent fine the next day already," a relieved Moreira revealed. "Roger is a tough guy. I wish him the best in everything."

Anderson Silva Unleashes Two Years of Fury

Maybe it was bound to happen. After all, two years of hyper-intense public harassment would cause any one of us to snap.

And snap is exactly what Anderson Silva did yesterday. To the surprise of even Dana White, the UFC's mild-mannered middleweight champion unleashed two years worth of suppressed fury against Chael Sonnen during a UFC 148 media conference call, spitting out a verbal tirade so smoldering, Silva's manager Ed Soares had to lighten the load a bit in his translations.

"I'm going to break his face and every tooth in his mouth," Silva seethed, his voice slowly rising from a murmur to a borderline roar. "I know he's on the call listening to this. Playtime is over. There's no more talking from him. I'm going to make him pay for everything he's said about me, my family and my country. I'm going to beat him like his parents should have to teach him some manners. I'll teach him those manners myself.

"No more s--- talking from him. Chael Sonnen's going to get his ass kicked like he's never gotten his ass kicked before. What I'm going to do inside the Octagon is something that's going to change the image of the sport. This is going to be violent. I'm going to make sure that every one of his teeth are broken, that his arms are broken and his legs are broken. He's not going to be able to walk out of the Octagon by himself. I can guarantee that. He will need a plastic surgeon afterwards."

Well, then.

It seems crazy to say, but Anderson actually topped Chael at his own game yesterday. Silva has been in the UFC for 7 years, and never have we seen anything remotely close to an outburst like this.

Really, it can mean only one of three things. Either Chael is in his head, and Silva will be blinded by rage during the fight -- which could be good for Sonnen. Or Chael is in his head, and Silva will be blinded by rage during the fight --which could be very, very, very bad for Sonnen.

Or, of couse, Anderson could just be doing a damn good job selling the last huge pay-per-view of his career. Regardless, the year's biggest fight somehow just got a hundred times more interesting.

Alistair Overeem speaks, zal wel voorbij gekomen zijn, maar check dit:

quote:

But that if wasn't enough, our good friend Alistair Overeem soon showed up -- sporting an utterly gangster pinstriped suit, I might add -- and in his first public appearance in two months, "The Reem" clarified a few things about his testing failures, before revealing his plan to get back into the UFC's good graces via a schedule of voluntary, monthly random drug tests.

"I'm going to convince Dana (White) through my actions, I am a legit fighter, and do the random (drug) tests," Overeem explained. "I'm very sure that this situation cannot happen again. ... What I want to show the world is that I am a clean fighter. I'll do these tests on my own. One test doesn't say anything. If I do these tests every three to four weeks, then you prove to everyone that you are clean. The medical staff is observing you taking the test. There's no foul play involved."

Ik denk dat dit de enige manier is om aan al het gespeculeer een einde te maken en definitief in de UFC te blijven. Hoop dat het allemaal gaat lukken en we begin volgend jaar een knallende Alistair gaan zien.
