------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- Rich Franklin vs Vitor Belfort Winner: Method: ------------ Mirko Cro Cop vs Junior Dos Santos Winner: Method: ------------ Martin Kampmann vs Paul Daley Winner: Method: ------------ Josh Koscheck vs Frank Trigg Winner: Method: ------------ Tyson Griffin vs Hermes Franca Winner: Method: ------------ ------------ Winner: [10 points] ------------ Method: *(T)KO: (Round) (Head kick, Ground strikes, etc etc) Submission: (Round) (Arm bar, Heel hook, etc etc) Decision: (Unanimous, Split, Majority) (Judge's Scorecards) [5 points for method, and 5 bonus for each detail in brackets. 15 total] ------------ In the event of a draw, disqualification, or last minute fighter replacement, the fight will not be calculated. ------------ *KO & TKO will be considered one option, as there is sometimes trouble distinguishing between the two. So if you choose TKO, and the result is KO, or vice versa, you will still be awarded points. If you simply list "Strikes" as your KO or (T)KO method, the stoppage must come due to more than one type of strike. However, choosing "Ground Strikes" will be rewarded regardless of the variety of strikes landed on the ground. ------------ Current Standings: HeartBreakMan2k: 250 (5) The Show Off: 245 (5) NoJabbaNoBogRoll: 225 (5) Rectal Pertruder: 210 (5) CSLi Manning: 165 (5) Impact: 160 (5) James Steele: 95 (3) Reavant: 75 (3) Kris P.

-I'm picking Rich because I think Rich will survive the storm and Vitor will gas. -I'm picking Mirko because I think Dos Santos is overrated. I could be wrong with either or both of those. I wouldn't be shocked if Vitor's hand speed was too much for Rich to handle. And I also wouldn't be shocked if Dos Santos turned out to be the killer that a lot of the MMA journalists out there are saying he is. I'm like 51% sure on both of those picks... The other three I'm fairly confident in, but not enough to make up for those two at the top of the card being coin tosses. |

Wow, well that gave me a little breathing room. But I gotta say that was a TERRIBLY tough card to call.
|
I don't know which hurts more, losing ground or having to see one of my favorites in Franklin go down like that...
Either way at least now I know that Slo Cop is done. Dos Santos didn't impress me in that fight but Slo Cop was terrible. When Gonzaga kicked him in the head did he take away Slo Cop's ability to throw strikes? I'd like to see a compustrike on him he didn't really fight so much as he jabbed and pushed Dos Santos from time to time. |
