God what I would give to have landed that one against Lauzon...I threw it, but wiffed

i like joe as a fighter, but i sure was pulling for you in that fight

i know you'll win the next one and get another contract!

thats sick

That shot Gonzaga threw was enough. Gonzaga seemed shocked that Mazagatti didn't stop it. That's a first.

That punch is something you see a guy in a parking lot try and completely whiff, then you say to yourself "why did he even try that" Awesome to it connect the way it did.

But pulling gaurd on Aaron Riley is not a smart idea. Aaron is old school, hard to beat, nearly impossible to finish. Pull gaurd on a guy like that and you end up ALMOST submitting him, and ALMOST sweeping him, and end up eating punches and elbows for an entire round

Obviously I trust your opinion on that. It just seems like Gurgel always does that IMO. He didn't seem to be going for takedowns either, I know he just might not be good at getting people down, but he still should be trying.....right?

i can't believe nobody has mentioned when joe rogan said those two guys were in the "smell my butt" position



we all lost it when we heard that

Yeah Palm Beach, the way, IMO to beat Riley (and Ive put thought in this because he was the fight offered to me in January of last year before I signed with the UFC) is to move and box and get off first.

Jorge was doing well when he was doing that. Putting together combos and moving in and out. He started getting in trouble when he got in straight brawl mode. YOU CANT BRAWL WITH AARON RILEY PERIOD. The guy brawled with a MUCH bigger MUCH stronger Robbie Lawler and hung for 3 full rounds.

You mix the good movement and combos with putting Aaron on his back, and you can win against him. You start winning rounds, and Aaron opens up and starts getting more aggressive, opning himself for BIG shots, and opening himself for the takedown.

You are right. I think Jorge looked better than I even expected standing up and putting combos together. HAd he worked a couple takedowns in here and there, he would have really tricked Aaron up. Aaron is tough on top, but not so tough when on his back

let me try to find it. one sec

you rock bro...thanks

I still like Stephens KO, but damn that Dos Santos one looks like it hurt bad
