UFC

Royce Gracie wins UFC 1

BooKooMMA [10:30 PM]:

Everyone should say their fav moment


Leek [10:30 PM]:

This was pretty cool, great work guys.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:30 PM]:

Thanks again guys. Was fun.


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:30 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Nice


ERG913 [10:30 PM]:

Thanks guys, have a good night


NewYorkRic [10:29 PM]:

Bye y’all.


mercydrive [10:29 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall There’s always one


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:29 PM]:

It’s been a blast. Thanks to everyone who joined us! We’ll have to do this again.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:29 PM]:

Just thought I’d throw that rain cloud over your head as we jump out of here.


Jiujitsu786 [10:28 PM]:

All ufcs should still cost $19.99! HD for $24.95


Chuck Mindenhall [10:28 PM]:

Yeah, thanks guys. Was fun. You know if you bought every PPV from just 100 to 167, in standard def, you’ve spent $3078.65?


mercydrive [10:28 PM]:

Thanks to all the MMA Fighting guys for doing this, was great fun!


TheAvenger [10:28 PM]:

UFC 37.5!!!


Bryan Tucker [10:28 PM]:

Appreciate all the comments and we’ll have to do this again soon. We’ll keep it open for 2 more minutes to wrap up any conversations.


ChrisPCT [10:28 PM]:

that was awesome, thanks guys


mercydrive [10:27 PM]:

especially considering WWF was running Yokozuna and Lex Luger at the time


Bryan Tucker [10:27 PM]:

Thanks everyone for watching UFC 1 with us again.


rlong05 [10:27 PM]:

@Jiujitsu786 no…why? nothing to prove. Watch Renzo Gracie Legacy dvd. That’s all I need


Jiujitsu786 [10:26 PM]:

Kyra Gracie vs Rhonda Rousey! Now thats a fight!


Chuck Mindenhall [10:26 PM]:

Overall all, fast fights and finishes. Not bad for $19.95 at the time.


ChrisPCT [10:26 PM]:

Jim Brown was awesome, he knew what was up


HeadStomp [10:25 PM]:

Right about now there were a bunch of hicks sayin “I bet I could take that spanish guy”


ChrisPCT [10:25 PM]:

So funny that he was at disney land when Ariel intreviewd him last year


Chuck Mindenhall [10:25 PM]:

“I think he’s going to have a heck of a time at Disneyland.” -Kathy Long


TheAvenger [10:25 PM]:

lol i just looked at the fight times for ufc 5


NewYorkRic [10:25 PM]:

FREE JIM BROWN


rlong05 [10:25 PM]:

“It’s gracie jiu jitsu all the way, there’s no chance”


Jiujitsu786 [10:25 PM]:

So Renzo wants to fight again in the UFC! Not a good idea!


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:24 PM]:

@ChrisPCT FightMetric says Royce didn’t get hit by one significant strike the entire tournament


NewYorkRic [10:24 PM]:

@ChrisPCT According to FightMetric, no. http://hosteddb.fightmetric.com/events/details/122


mercydrive [10:24 PM]:

I feel much better about Goldy and Rogan now


rlong05 [10:24 PM]:

@Jiujitsu786 yea but they left a lasting legacy…they really don’t need to have a family member in mma


Chuck Mindenhall [10:24 PM]:

In all seriousness, what a big moment. So many fighters you talk to say they got inspired by Gracie and UFC 1.


Leek [10:24 PM]:

“He’s too pretty to get hurt”


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:24 PM]:

“They don’t know what to do on the ground.” <— Understatement of the century, right there


ChrisPCT [10:23 PM]:

Did Royce get hit once?


Chuck Mindenhall [10:23 PM]:

Yeah that airhorn guy needs to be corrected.


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:23 PM]:

Royce Gracie 3-0 on the night. 3 subs. 4:59 total ring time.


Jiujitsu786 [10:23 PM]:

Rener would have been like “Its like fighting fire with water”


JOEUFCFAN [10:22 PM]:

#kingshaun – spread the love!


Chuck Mindenhall [10:22 PM]:

Royce has $50,000 on the Big Check.


NewYorkRic [10:22 PM]:

@mercydrive Rener was not there, but Ryron was.


rlong05 [10:22 PM]:

@TheAvenger rener was not allowed but ryron was


JOEUFCFAN [10:22 PM]:

I gotta go! Good night all. Was fun chatting :)


Leek [10:22 PM]:

“I found my sport” -Jim Brown


ChrisPCT [10:22 PM]:

I think Ryron was? but not Rener


HeadStomp [10:22 PM]:

Who’s the moron with the air horn?


mercydrive [10:22 PM]:

‘Fighting is not what we thought it was’ – Words to live by


BooKooMMA [10:22 PM]:

What are the OTN bonuses? :)


TheAvenger [10:22 PM]:

was rener gracie there? Haha


Jiujitsu786 [10:21 PM]:

Kron is really the only hope left for the Gracie family in MMA @rlong05


ChrisPCT [10:21 PM]:

Jiu Jitsu !


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:21 PM]:

Royce Gracie def. Gerard Gordeau via submission (rear-naked choke) at 1:44 of round one to become the first UFC tournament champion


mercydrive [10:21 PM]:

Yeah this has been brilliant, thoroughly enjoyed it.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:21 PM]:

Royce held that choke a long, long time. He said it was because Gordeau bit him.


Leek [10:21 PM]:

just heard Royce yell out after getting bit


rlong05 [10:21 PM]:

i like how royce breifly looked for an ezekiel choke


ChrisPCT [10:20 PM]:

do it @chuck!


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:20 PM]:

Using that gi like a champ. Gerard never knew what hit him.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:20 PM]:

@dj c plus I think we should do one for each card from here on in. UFC 2 we’ll celebrate 20 years in March.


ChrisPCT [10:20 PM]:

Kron has that mean streak about him too, I think he will do ok


rlong05 [10:20 PM]:

@Jiujitsu786 cuz everyone knows jiu jitsu defense


Jiujitsu786 [10:20 PM]:

I heard Kron Gracie is going to be making a MMA debut hopefully soon!


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:19 PM]:

Takedown right into mount


NewYorkRic [10:19 PM]:

Gerard was the first guy to look for underhooks all night.


dj c plus [10:19 PM]:

thanks for setting this up, SBN peeps. good stuff.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:19 PM]:

They have abandoned Bill Wallace for pointing out that the mouth is the dirtiest part of the human body.


Jiujitsu786 [10:19 PM]:

Why do all the Gracie’s not do well in the UFC anymore?


mercydrive [10:19 PM]:

Royce vs. Air-horn guy…make it happen


armarchetto [10:18 PM]:

“It’s Gracie Jiu-Jitsu all the way.”


NewYorkRic [10:18 PM]:

@BooKooMMA Accurate.


TheAvenger [10:18 PM]:

He’s going to disneyland WOOOOOOOO


HeadStomp [10:17 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Yep, just double checked. They show him tapping Jenkins out and a few other clips. Also a little of DeLucias post-fight when he says “This is real deal. This isn’t boxing”


TheAvenger [10:17 PM]:

all josh kosheck fights need to have no time limit


Chuck Mindenhall [10:17 PM]:

@Shaun Al-Shatti That’s all I’m saying.


@joedaddy85 [10:17 PM]:

this was pretty cool…


BooKooMMA [10:17 PM]:

Ariel is banned untile he wins a bet agains Ric.


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:17 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Seriously. We need more long, loose pants in our MMA


NewYorkRic [10:16 PM]:

Young stud Rickson Gracie sighting.


Jiujitsu786 [10:16 PM]:

Where is Ariel Helwani?


Chuck Mindenhall [10:15 PM]:

@TheAvenger Don’t know, but what a great pic.


Jiujitsu786 [10:15 PM]:

Helio never aged! Osssss


TheAvenger [10:15 PM]:

royce not letting go? Banned until UFC 2


armarchetto [10:15 PM]:

Tap.


mercydrive [10:15 PM]:

Come on man, you literally read his stats 5 minutes ago.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:14 PM]:

@HeadStomp Really? Cool. I will check that out.


TheAvenger [10:13 PM]:

is this it?


NewYorkRic [10:13 PM]:

Strangely anti-Rorion, but pro-Helio.


ThisPhillyFan [10:13 PM]:

It’s jarring to see bare knuckles, no?


HeadStomp [10:13 PM]:

There’s some clips of DeLucia-Jenkins at the beginning of UFC 2


mercydrive [10:13 PM]:

All abooooooooooard


Leek [10:13 PM]:

@Shaun Al-Shatti I think it’s on Youku.com


Chuck Mindenhall [10:12 PM]:

Helio Gracie being recognized in the middle of the Octagon. Some jeers from the Denver crowd.


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:12 PM]:

Boos all around. Denver crowd didn’t come to see no ceremony.


ERG913 [10:12 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Oh ok. I’ve only seen the dozen times DeLucia got liver kicked by Bas Rutten.


JOEUFCFAN [10:12 PM]:

‘because the mouth is the dirtiest part of the human body’ lmao


mercydrive [10:12 PM]:

Some sexy graphics right there


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:11 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Looks like it’s lost to history


Chuck Mindenhall [10:10 PM]:

@ERG913 Was just curious. That was the “alternative” bout that went on at UFC 1.


ThisPhillyFan [10:10 PM]:

So now Royce has to turn around after choking out Shamrock to fight Gordeau.


Leek [10:10 PM]:

Ken’s got the kids at the group home looking up to him


JOEUFCFAN [10:10 PM]:

sub


ERG913 [10:10 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall no, What happened?


Shaun Al-Shatti [10:09 PM]:

Ken classy in defeat


Chuck Mindenhall [10:09 PM]:

Has anybody seen the Jason DeLucia-Trent Jenkins bout?


TheAvenger [10:08 PM]:

@rlong05 lol


rlong05 [10:07 PM]:

@TheAvenger the 1 prelim fight


mercydrive [10:07 PM]:

TAP….April Fools


TheAvenger [10:06 PM]:

Now it’s time to replay all the prelim fights to pass some time.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:06 PM]:

Imagine Dana White in the post-fight interview with that unacknowledged tap from Shamrock.


TheAvenger [10:05 PM]:

ken breathing heavy


rlong05 [10:05 PM]:

*fight


rlong05 [10:05 PM]:

i wonder what the odds would have been for this fiht


NewYorkRic [10:05 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Tuli shoots first.


Chuck Mindenhall [10:05 PM]:

I wish we could have seen Tuli-Gracie.


rlong05 [10:04 PM]:

shock the world royce!!!


armarchetto [10:04 PM]:

“What happened?” -Jim Brown. Really think he might have nodded off.


TheAvenger [10:04 PM]:

how did the ref miss that? unacceptable


JOEUFCFAN [10:03 PM]:

LOL


TheAvenger [10:03 PM]:

who’s the ref, mazzagatti?


mercydrive [10:03 PM]:

Ken sure had some dreamy hair


Leek [10:03 PM]:

Ken’s jacket is sick


BooKooMMA [10:02 PM]:

Cecil Peoples scored that a draw.


TheAvenger [10:02 PM]:

shamrock stuffs the takedown


dj c plus [10:02 PM]:

we’re goin’ off the rails on a Gracie Traaaaain


mercydrive [10:01 PM]:

I’d love to have been a fly on the wall when they pitched the Gracie train


Leek [10:01 PM]:

@TheAvenger not to mention biting Royce’s ear


Chuck Mindenhall [10:01 PM]:

Royce riding the train back to the cage.


HeadStomp [10:00 PM]:

That “classy guy” tried to gouge Yuki Nakai’s eye out a year and a half later


TheAvenger [10:00 PM]:

damn, shamrock’s left eye


Chuck Mindenhall [9:59 PM]:

@mercydrive Good point.


mercydrive [9:59 PM]:

Dolce*


mercydrive [9:59 PM]:

You never see Dolche and Rosier in the same room…


NewYorkRic [9:58 PM]:

Dolce would’ve had him down to 205.


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:58 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Never doubt that Rosier Diet.


Leek [9:58 PM]:

45lbs in three weeks, take that Mike Dolce!!


Chuck Mindenhall [9:58 PM]:

“I went in there, I trained three weeks for this. I lost 45 pounds.” -Rosier


TheAvenger [9:58 PM]:

gracie time


HeadStomp [9:58 PM]:

Sad that Kevin Rosier was apparently homeless not too long ago


ChrisPCT [9:56 PM]:

as much as we say royce was way better then everyone, gordeau was clearly on another level too


Chuck Mindenhall [9:56 PM]:

Gordeau had some poise. He just watched his wounded prey squirm for a bit before that stomp.


TheAvenger [9:56 PM]:

lol , jim Brown :do u think its’ going to be short? No I don’t think so..


HeadStomp [9:56 PM]:

“Watch now boom theres the punch”


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:56 PM]:

Elbows and stomps. Gerard doesn’t mess around.


mercydrive [9:55 PM]:

I call it the ‘Wounded Moose’


ChrisPCT [9:55 PM]:

man rozier is getting picked apart


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:55 PM]:

@NewYorkRic Exactly what I was thinking


HeadStomp [9:55 PM]:

Rosier moves with such grace


Chuck Mindenhall [9:54 PM]:

Rosier in some early trouble here….


NewYorkRic [9:54 PM]:

Rosier is playing the game.


armarchetto [9:54 PM]:

Bill Wallace is doing everything in his power to make Jim Brown apart of the broadcast by relating something to football.


JOEUFCFAN [9:54 PM]:

Imagine Roy Nelson competing at UFC 1…. not good for his health lol


ERG913 [9:53 PM]:

STOMP TO THE BODY OF A GROUNDED OPPONENT


BooKooMMA [9:53 PM]:

The cage is so cuddly, that Roy Nelson would tickle it all night long.


TheAvenger [9:53 PM]:

jim brown is on point so far


Chuck Mindenhall [9:53 PM]:

“He’s a heck of a man, I’ll tell you what.” – Kathy Long on Gerard Gordeau


HeadStomp [9:53 PM]:

Keep in mind Gordeau still has pieces of Tuli’s teeth stuck in his foot at this point


mercydrive [9:53 PM]:

@NewYorkRic was about to say…Patrick was showing that bike who was boss


NewYorkRic [9:52 PM]:

@mercydrive *Art and Patrick


kalamity113 [9:52 PM]:

who thought that teila tuli would just run through everybody?


armarchetto [9:51 PM]:

She really broke down their ‘nice’ handshake?


NewYorkRic [9:51 PM]:

@mercydrive Art and Kevin were both pushing it to the limit on bikes.


TheAvenger [9:51 PM]:

and its over


TheAvenger [9:51 PM]:

stop covering up and get up


ChrisPCT [9:51 PM]:

a 4 man commentary team, howd they thnk that would work lol


NewYorkRic [9:51 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Not the first time we’ve caught Chuck talking to himself.


Chuck Mindenhall [9:51 PM]:

Commentators not real confident in Rosier’s chances.


JOEUFCFAN [9:50 PM]:

@ChuckMinedenhall fail.


mercydrive [9:50 PM]:

You always pick the mine riding the gym bike in his pre-match promo


ERG913 [9:50 PM]:

@dustman With or without Jim Cornette in his corner?


Leek [9:50 PM]:

I get the feeling Kathy Long wanted to slap Bill Wallace’s face


Chuck Mindenhall [9:50 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall Shamrock.


JOEUFCFAN [9:50 PM]:

@NewYorkRic because you just know it….. they cant deal with that jiu jitsu


NewYorkRic [9:50 PM]:

@BooKooMMA Smart man.


BooKooMMA [9:49 PM]:

depends on the odds :p


TheAvenger [9:49 PM]:

probably shamrock


ChrisPCT [9:49 PM]:

I think Ken has to make the most sense


JOEUFCFAN [9:49 PM]:

Gracie


dustman [9:49 PM]:

I always thought the man they call Vader could have beat them all, and won the tournament


NewYorkRic [9:49 PM]:

Real question: You line these guys up pre-UFC 1; going in blind, who do you bet on?


Chuck Mindenhall [9:48 PM]:

Bracketology: Gordeau versus Rosier, and Gracie versus Shamrock.


JOEUFCFAN [9:48 PM]:

i train ufc bro…


ERG913 [9:48 PM]:

@Dave Meltzer Only a little bit though


Chuck Mindenhall [9:47 PM]:

@Dave Meltzer If the opposite were true, we might not be celebrating 20 years right now.


Dave Meltzer [9:47 PM]:

They noted Ken was breathing after the fight. Thank God.


Dave Meltzer [9:47 PM]:

Prophetic words 20 years later. Weight dosen’t make a difference, when everyone in the world cuts weight today to have a slight advantage.


ERG913 [9:47 PM]:

ankle lock = Beating into living death


armarchetto [9:46 PM]:

Ken Shamrock’s interview are to the equivalent of Greg Popovich talk to Craig Sager.


ChrisPCT [9:46 PM]:

cut on head = eye gouges? makes sense


Leek [9:46 PM]:

@TheAvenger Smith was the hometown favorite


rlong05 [9:46 PM]:

@NewYorkRic haha…this is true


Dave Meltzer [9:46 PM]:

I had seen the first Pancrase show with Shamrock vs. Funaki.


jamesrobertwade [9:45 PM]:

no one wants to lose to a footlock


Dave Meltzer [9:45 PM]:

Fans chanting bullshit, because the guy tapped to a submission.


NewYorkRic [9:45 PM]:

@rlong05 You don’t get to 250-0 with a weak guard.


Chuck Mindenhall [9:45 PM]:

Patrick Smith wants two out of three.


ChrisPCT [9:45 PM]:

@Dave Meltzer had you watched Shamrock’s fights previous to ufc 1?


rlong05 [9:45 PM]:

@Dave Meltzer he needs to be cut


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:45 PM]:

A man does not simply lose his 250-0 record without causing a ruckus


TheAvenger [9:45 PM]:

crowd chanting bs?


@joedaddy85 [9:44 PM]:

anyone know if there were odds on this tournament?


Dave Meltzer [9:44 PM]:

Some bad sportsmanship.


rlong05 [9:44 PM]:

@NewYorkRic pat smith has a very technical closed guard…safe stage 1 of the guard


dj c plus [9:44 PM]:

it’s weird seeing Shamrock without a completely busted nose


kalamity113 [9:44 PM]:

did you guys enjoy ken in wwf/e more or in ufc?


JOEUFCFAN [9:44 PM]:

Shamrock wanted to go some more!


Dave Meltzer [9:43 PM]:

Ken wasn’t used to the heel hooks without the other guy without pro wrestling boots, but still won.


TheAvenger [9:43 PM]:

250-1, omg what a monumental upset


JOEUFCFAN [9:43 PM]:

@newyorkric Seem’s reasonable… :) cant wait!


NewYorkRic [9:43 PM]:

It looked like Pat almost went to rubber guard.


JOEUFCFAN [9:42 PM]:

This man is a shadow-shi-shooto fight. with a record of 17,842-0. FIGHTING… out of heaven………


NewYorkRic [9:42 PM]:

@JOEUFCFAN I’m thinking 145.


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:42 PM]:

Shamrock was already 3-0 in Pancrase at this point. All subs


ChrisPCT [9:42 PM]:

swimming trunks


rlong05 [9:42 PM]:

Shamrock was the most experienced in this type of a fight 3-0 in pancrase


Chuck Mindenhall [9:42 PM]:

@Leek Hard trick to turn, being the most powerfullest.


Chuck Mindenhall [9:41 PM]:

Fact: People from Denver prone to exaggerration (250-0).


JOEUFCFAN [9:41 PM]:

@NEWYORKRIC bantamweight?


Leek [9:41 PM]:

Most powerfullest, most craziest out of all the groups


JOEUFCFAN [9:41 PM]:

@NEWYORKRIC Lol!


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:41 PM]:

Man, they don’t make records like they used to


Chuck Mindenhall [9:41 PM]:

Crowd loving themselves some of Denver’s own Patrick Smith…


Dave Meltzer [9:41 PM]:

Wow, in 1993 cut abs were called muscles in the stomach.


kalamity113 [9:41 PM]:

i gotta question for all to answer if they choose


NewYorkRic [9:41 PM]:

@JOEUFCFAN We’ve contacted Art Jimmerson.


jamesrobertwade [9:40 PM]:

there’s more charm about the seg cards


Chuck Mindenhall [9:40 PM]:

Ken Wayne Shamrock 24-3-2.


kalamity113 [9:40 PM]:

perfect


ChrisPCT [9:40 PM]:

Pat Smith stole John Morgan’s hair


@joedaddy85 [9:40 PM]:

google watch ufc 1 online..watching on vimeo


Dave Meltzer [9:40 PM]:

250-0


TheAvenger [9:40 PM]:

250-0? What???


Punk Hazard [9:40 PM]:

Oh okay.. haha so this is just like a chat thing about it.. SWEET! WHERE’S LUKE?


JOEUFCFAN [9:40 PM]:

:P


JOEUFCFAN [9:40 PM]:

I cant wait for NYR’s mma debut!


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:40 PM]:

@kalamity113 Just in time for Mr. Shamrock


JOEUFCFAN [9:40 PM]:

hey kalamity


TheAvenger [9:40 PM]:

lol wayne?


ERG913 [9:39 PM]:

@dj c plus lol It was only missing the line “I like having fun.”


JOEUFCFAN [9:39 PM]:

everybody is watching it on their own source


kalamity113 [9:39 PM]:

whats up fellas


Chuck Mindenhall [9:39 PM]:

Pat Smith had a tougher battle with that towel on the way in.


armarchetto [9:39 PM]:

Who had the best walkout music?


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:39 PM]:

@NewYorkRic Whoa, nice. Only 47 sig. strikes the entire event.


JOEUFCFAN [9:39 PM]:

no punk


dj c plus [9:39 PM]:

that interview w shamrock looked like a video dating profile


Punk Hazard [9:38 PM]:

Is UFC 1 being streamed on here? I’m at work!!! I think it’s blocked here!!!


JOEUFCFAN [9:38 PM]:

hopefully everyone here has seen UFC 1 before :P


ChrisPCT [9:38 PM]:

@Dave who did you think was going to win UFC 1?


TheAvenger [9:38 PM]:

pat smith gets the towel stuck on his face


rasmer [9:38 PM]:

@NewYorkRic spoiler alert :P


armarchetto [9:38 PM]:

@Ric this is beautiful


NewYorkRic [9:38 PM]:

*PEEK I CAN SPELL I SWEAR


Wisetoad [9:37 PM]:

“very streetwise”


NewYorkRic [9:37 PM]:

@armarchetto Speaking of that, if anybody wants a peak at the FightMetric stats for this one: http://hosteddb.fightmetric.com/events/details/122


mercydrive [9:37 PM]:

Pat’s neck has necks


jamesrobertwade [9:37 PM]:

i think it was more exhaustion than being mounted


Leek [9:37 PM]:

Even Goins was disapointed


JOEUFCFAN [9:36 PM]:

LOL

Chuck Mindenhall [9:36 PM]:

Pat Smith and Ken Shamrock. “The two strong boys”


TheAvenger [9:36 PM]:

here comes shamrock!!!!


rlong05 [9:36 PM]:

@ChrisPCT geez people need to learn a simple trap and roll escape


BooKooMMA [9:36 PM]:

Bobb Sapp taps pre-mount


armarchetto [9:36 PM]:

Using stats from Police Department Studies. Take that Fightmetric


mercydrive [9:36 PM]:

31 minutes*


Dave Meltzer [9:36 PM]:

Didn’t Remco Parduel against Marco Ruas tap to mount. I was at that one, God were the people at SEG furious at that.


mercydrive [9:36 PM]:

4 fights in and its 31, imagine how many !!!!!! Dana would have used on Twitter so far


CallumLeslieMMA [9:36 PM]:

Well gentleman, this has been fun. But it’s 2:30am here in God’s country, and I am going to be in big trouble if I don’t let my other half sleep. This is a great idea, we should do this again! Thanks again.


ERG913 [9:36 PM]:

@rlong05 Nah, Gary Goodridge vs Don Frye


Chuck Mindenhall [9:36 PM]:

@rlong05 Was wondering about that…


Shaun Al-Shatti [9:35 PM]:

Jim Brown is the best


ChrisPCT [9:35 PM]:

I saw someone at a local mma even tap to being mounted


rlong05 [9:35 PM]:

is that the only time someone tapped due to mount


ChrisPCT [9:35 PM]:

to bad he wasn’t wearing kickboxing shoes


Bryan Tucker [9:35 PM]:

Royce with the submission win to move on.. didn’t see that one coming


JOEUFCFAN [9:35 PM]:

You’ll probably see dana white throwing the towel after 2 minutes if he’s at a fitch fight again!


ChrisPCT [9:35 PM]:

apparently you can’t kick if you’re wearing boxing shoes lol


Chuck Mindenhall [9:35 PM]:

Towel comes flying in. That was the the entirety of Jimmerson’s MMA career.


jamesrobertwade [9:34 PM]:

emmanuel yarborough got a submission by smother because he lay on some japanese guy


mercydrive [9:34 PM]:

I think this was more of a submission (confusion) tap


JOEUFCFAN [9:34 PM]:

Lol erg…


ChrisPCT [9:34 PM]:

Royce*


ChrisPCT [9:34 PM]:

Pissed was probably pissed he didn’t get to finish


TheAvenger [9:34 PM]:

he just gave up wow


ERG913 [9:34 PM]:

@JOEUFCFAN Junior Dos Santos diagrees.


jamesrobertwade [9:34 PM]:

they wanted pat smith back to fight frank mir at ufc 45 or so


rlong05 [9:34 PM]:

@Chuck Mindenhall haha he was the first officially


CallumLeslieMMA [9:34 PM]:

second worst submission reason ever. Joe Son once lost a fight by Submission (terror), according to Sherdog..


JOEUFCFAN [9:34 PM]:

I wanna see more Towel throwing in MMA


ERG913 [9:33 PM]:

I love the people chanting “fight” when Gracie got mount.


CallumLeslieMMA [9:33 PM]:

Taps to "position:


Chuck Mindenhall [9:33 PM]:

Jimmerson wearing Nike. Long before Jon Jones (and less endorsed).


rlong05 [9:33 PM]:

So how much does Gracie weigh 175, 178, or 180?

NewYorkRic [8:55 PM]:

@CallumLeslieMMA Unacceptable.


CallumLeslieMMA [8:53 PM]:

Thanks Ric. Let the record show it’s 2am here. I may fall asleep.


NewYorkRic [8:53 PM]:

@ChrisPCT Confirmed for me.


ChrisPCT [8:53 PM]:

Just wondering if everyone’s dvd is about 1:30 long?


NewYorkRic [8:52 PM]:

@CallumLeslieMMA I really hope not. That would be a shame.


CallumLeslieMMA [8:52 PM]:

Boring question – are there any glaring differences between the UK DVD release and the US one?


Dave Meltzer [8:50 PM]:

Ready to start
