these cage grabs and getting ridiculous, just use one of your five free fence grabs to defend a position and presto, refs happy because no more fence grabs

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

This is all John "I invented all the rules" McCarthy's fault, he used to openly talk about how it would be illogical to take a point for minor infractions, and so now it's turned into all this.

If they don't want to take a point, there should be predetermined positions that the fouled fighter can choose to restart in.

"Ok, you grabbed the cage, fighter A chooses to restart in top half guard. GO"

It's incredibly simple to stop all this.

Welcome back AES

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

I'm almost positive he beat him in and out of consciousness as his arms went stiff in the air a couple of times then started moving again

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

mcmug@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Never seen someone turn their back and run before, but I guess it works

ugmug@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Fights start in 15 min. Let’s go!

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y (1 reply)

This is a regional level fight, neither of these guys are UFC level

AssaultPepper@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

It's ESPN undercard level 😎

AssaultPepper@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Who are we looking forward to tonight?

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Most of the main card + Tucker Lutz

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Just hate when there's repeated fouls and then no points taken.

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y (5 replies)

Also, it's being targeted by kbin developers to have the comment box up top by next event. Should make these threads a lot better.

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y (4 replies)

I have a script I use in tampermonkey for that.

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y (3 replies)

I have that but can't figure out how to move the comment box

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y (2 replies)

It should do it automatically. At least it did for me.

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Nope, nothing for me

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y

click on the settings gear wheel. The kbin enhanced section is down at the bottom with various yes/no options.

YaDong@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 3y

Her screaming on the mic after was brutal. Ouch

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

T-Wreck'd am I rite?

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

Wow standing arm triangle?!?

notannpc@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y

I loved the ref repeatedly saying “you’re okay” to the person whose arm just broke. She is most definitely not okay.

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y (4 replies)

sorry I wasn't as active this week.

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y (2 replies)

That's ok, this was a rough card

ugmug@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

You aren’t kidding. It’s hard to get hyped for a Holly Holm headliner.

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

In the apex.

With like, the first 7 fights not having a fighter coming off a UFC win...

They're just putting out a regional product on a lot of these.

Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y

Couldn't follow it yesterday :(
Just now learning the results.

lackthought@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

good win by turtle man, looking forward to his next fight

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Well loses by terrible injury and goes 0-4 in the UFC. Welcome to cutsville, GL with the arm. -Dana, probably

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Holly Holm has the same headshape as Peyton Manning and now I can't unsee it

YaDong@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 3y

Minty Bets is AI, and I refuse to believe otherwise

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

that was one sided.

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

You just know that at some point the UFC approached a commission asking for more time between rounds so they could add an extra commercial.

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

OMG. That's horrific.

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Here's Ailin Perez's Instagram if you want to... support her career

The Iron Turtle is a cool nickname

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Oh my God that's a horrrrrrrrrible injury

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

That was crazy. He had the arm trapped behind the back. There was no defend at all.

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Hey all, go upvote and boost all our highlight clips as the bot brings them over so the rest of the fediverse sees them. Thanks all.

Pluto_Is_A_Planet@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

You can't be laying there with your arms stuck out not defending yourself.

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

BasicallyClean@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

sin_free_for_00_days@lemmy.one · 1 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Takedowns like that one at the end of the round shouldn't count for anything.

Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y

It should be counted as a light jab.

sin_free_for_00_days@lemmy.one · 1 pts · 3y

Two entertaining fights in a row.

GeezLouise@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 3y

There are mfs with cauliflower ears and then there are mfs with no nose like JDM. Great fight.

YaDong@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 1 pts · 3y

Fernando-678@kbin.social · 1 pts · 3y
