Rewatched the Vitor/Sexyama fight the other day on FS1. Almost forgot how Vitor knocked him out with a punch to the back of the head.

They have let this go on a lot lately.

Was Sexyama the most overrated guy to enter the UFC?

LSUCoonass just got his feeling hurt.

He wasnt overrated IMO. For the most part every fight Akiyama has been in in the UFC has been super close. He could easily have a very good record in the UFC had a few things went his way.

I think he can do really well at 170 as long as he doesn't gas out. He is one of the best grapplers in the division and tough as nails.

Sexyama is totally underrated dude. He's a small 185. Hell do okay at 170. He's still pretty sexy

He's an awesome judoka no doubt. Didn't he beat Jerome lebanner in an mma fight.

Was Belfort on trt when he fought akiyama.

I gotta preserve sexyama's integrity here

It's like each card is worse than the one before it. By growing the sport and adding more cards, they have gotten very watered down.

Must be big foot.

I thought he had the gland removed due to his acromegaly

I'm wondering the same thing. It's a deadly and painful condition if left untreated.

Andre the giant suffered from this when there wasn't much research into acromegaly.

Akiyama had to fight a murderer's row from day 1. Finally got a win when he didn't have to fight top 10 middleweights.

Looks like Anderson Silva is going down with the ship over his failed drug tests. He said he has nothing to apologize for.

Akiyama got triangle choked by pill-head zombie Chris Leben. That's the last triangle choke I can remember in the ufc (since everyone knows how to defend nowadays) and it happened 5 years ago! He might be decent at some of these little skills competitions, but he's just not elite at Mma.

Because it's the excuse for TRT, not the reason

ETA - I have to correct myself, it's the reason for him having TRT, but that doesn't justify allowing it in combat sports.

If I remember correctly, Akiyama gassed hard in that fight. Not making excuses for him, just stating. I think that was when Leben took a fight two weeks later after that fight.
