ttt

Shogun by OWNAGE of the the NUMBERS!!!

UFC = corrupted like hell

 Yes, that's a fantastic site.  Even the site's round-by-round analysis shows that Shogun was the clear winner.

¤Unique¤ - UFC = corrupted like hell


I think you mean

CSAC = incompetent as hell. Dana sounds furious about the decision.

My conclusion is the judges need to be shot.

My conclusion? MMA isnt point-fighting. You cant look at these stats are show who was the winner.

Ensanity - Shogun by OWNAGE of the the NUMBERS!!!

how embarassing. The fight seemed a little closer than that shows. A UD was completely wrong.  A SD would have been slightly shocking, but not that shocking.  A RUA win would have been expected. I do expect MAchida to come back in the second fight and win  

 hopefully this will get overturned but... that would mean EGG on the face of the CSAC and we all know how the CSAC feels about that!!

so by those stats excluding leg kicks Lyoto landed more strikes 38 to Rua's 33.

Leg kicks don't win Championships.

Ok, if these numbers don't matter..who was damaged more? Who pushed the pace? Who attempted take downs? Who initiated clinch and controlled the octagon?

What more do you need?

They aren't everything but when they are this lopsided, they are something...

No but damage does

SHOGUN IS THE CHAMP

This is like saying Field Goals don't win football games. Umm, wtf are you talking about? You are a class A retard.

They are extremely close in head+body strikes. Very close. One guy has 45 more leg strikes, and those leg strikes did the most lasting damage of anything in the fight. The same guy is more accurate, and pushes the pace and controls the flow of the fight.

He wins.

HereWeAre - Fuck that.

Listen to it with the sound off. I have never heard announcers disregard every thing a fighter is doing like they did with Lyoto in this fight.

First three rounds to Machida.


FightMetric gives the first three rounds a 1-1-1 split. One to Rua, one to Machida, one draw.

You know, the actual unbiased source.

Think about fighting ten days in a row.

Who comes out better? Well, Machida probably can't walk very well for the next 2 or 3 days, so I take Shogun!

I know thats not the sport, but it represents lasting damage done. Both guys damaged the body, Shogun did it through body kicks and Lyoto did it through knees.

I thought Shogun did more. He initiated more, and did more damage overall. Sure, it was a great contender for a draw, but the UFC 'discourages' that!

 the numbers dont lie!

 

Shogun got ripped off.
