- r3mix, on 05/23/2009, -0/+34his face was blue just before the ref stopped the fight.
- inactive, on 05/23/2009, -3/+31dugg for MMA on the front page.

- akchrs, on 05/23/2009, -1/+23When the ref says "that's it, let go.... uh oh... ooo.... ooo... *****" I think you may have won.
- billricardi, on 05/23/2009, -1/+21Wow, Imada pulled it out in awesome fashion. And Masvidal really blew that to sheer arrogance and then panic.
He had every opportunity to straighten the leg out, but instead you can see the look of a contemptuous 'whatever' in his face as he stands up, and it looks like he wants to convert it into a slam. Then he panics and bends at the waist, once again forgetting to straighten that leg out.
This is triangle counter 101: The slam will suck you in tighter, straighten his leg and step out! - Bic823, on 05/23/2009, -0/+15I dugg you just because you sound like you know what you're talking about.

- inactive, on 05/23/2009, -0/+5Sorry, I didn't realize I would offend you with suggesting that a man should attempt to escape from a crotch-hold of another man.
- m3arvk, on 05/23/2009, -3/+7***** serious.
- HottLumpiaz, on 05/23/2009, -1/+5In all fairness the dude looked like he knew he was in some kind of submission attempt but absolutely no clue what kind because let's face it.....the chances of that ever happening were slim and none....and slim was just about to jump off a cliff.
- inactive, on 05/23/2009, -2/+6He didn't even try to escape.
- Rmo4, on 05/23/2009, -1/+5Then don't comment...

- Krumpenstein, on 05/23/2009, -0/+3That was a bizarre submission finish but the year is still young and Demian Maia still has a couple fights.

- inactive, on 05/27/2009, -0/+1Actually, submission moves make 'this sport', 'this sport'
- bruin8uclap, on 05/23/2009, -1/+2Ha! I missed that the first time around! He seriously thought he'd called it too late and was looking at a vegetable.
- inactive, on 05/27/2009, -0/+1you mean a scarf hold, yeah, probably :)
- gilgamesh23, on 06/04/2009, -0/+1It's only gay if you make eye contact. long... deep... eye contact.
- chamorro, on 05/26/2009, -1/+2"Best way to explain it? It looks almost as if the two men are performing a standing 69."
"Dad, what's a 69?"
"It's what two people in love do to make them feel happy?"
"Two people in love? Like you and mommy?"
"Yes son"
"Then why does the plumber ***** the ***** out of mom when you're away at work?" - inactive, on 05/27/2009, -0/+1I don't think brock can do a lot of subs just because the size of his thighs make a tight, flexible guard impossible... hes got horse legs
- inactive, on 05/27/2009, -1/+1Thats awfully definitive of you to say the slam would only suck you in tighter. Clearly you've never been really slammed before. By standing up, you gained posture(the triangle is incredibly hard to hold down when they posture)... you don't need to straighten your legs but it does help and it would have definitely improved his slam. Further, a figure four is not an easy hold... especially at that angle... again, by saying slamming will just sink it in, it shows me you've never held a figure four before. A well executed slam would sink you down into the hips and allow you to pass the figure four by pushing the other arm through, in which case you can pry or push out of the hold with your elbows. The figure four with the triangle is even more likely to break if you push outward with the caught arm, most people who sink a triangle require an arm on the foot of the bent leg, and the top of the opponents head, and they need to pulllllll very hard to make it happen.
that being said, if you don't have the hip power to slam - your chances of slamming out of a well locked triangle are slim.
/rant - putz85er, on 05/24/2009, -0/+0this guy was pretty horrible. i mean he just got whipped until the lucky submission. but thats mma one second your up the next your waking up to the ref wondering what happened.

- megamod, on 05/23/2009, -7/+2I think UFC and any other similar style fights are generally stupid but it's amazing how this guy was getting his ass WHOOPED, hadn't even hit his opponent once and in less than 20 seconds turned it around...
