Do you think he does that shit to his training partners?

Impossible, he would have no training partners left. Chute boxe showed the world you can't train like that..

Being from a gym that loves leglocks, i like that hes heek-hook guy, but nothing else about him...

I honestly think Paul Harris is mentally retarded...the dan miller fight where he climbed the cage, when he hurt that guy in adcc, and tonight? Wtf man lol

Just heard he got denied submission of the night bonus, even though he got the nights only submission. They said for "unsportmanlike conduct" Happy to hear it

Perfect! Im so glad to hear that. Good move Dana!

Congrats to Jake and Denny!!! Awesome victory

Palhares is just going to loose fans with his conduct. It's not the first time he holds on for too long. Kind of reminds me of Royce in that respect, actually. lol

Shields has his hands all over the ground, if only Maia had a guard attack that took advantage of this..

I see what you did there...

Honestly Mike was talking a whole load of shit before their fight. Completely looking past Paulhares. Do I think he held it to long and do I agree with them taking his bonus away, sure. But should Mike Pierce be talking crap about a guy that is known for jacking legs, no that would be unsportsmanlike. It is a fight and if Paulhares wanted to send a message to the other fighters: Don't take me lightly.

Regarding the whole Mike Pierce talking shit thing, I have met him and hes a pretty humble guy, I am thinking he was just hyping himself and the fight. I don't see him as someone with a huge ego. This sport is too macho for dudes to just say they wont fight Pallhares but something needs to be done. I blame the reff, Russimar and the UFC since this clearly isnt the first time this kinda thing has happened.

Was it cool when Dan Henderson jumped on Bisping after the KO (sorta) but these kinds of unsportsmanlike conduct make the whole organization look bad. If they would show PPV of underground blood sport with fights to the death or KO, I might watch it, but thats not the UFC. There are rules, Russimar, this isnt Nam.

P.S. Nathan and I tried out that entry to the heel hook / finish, that shit is tight. No way they can counter heel hook you if you use the belcher techniques and extend your legs like and x break.

Think you meant Dan Henderson my brother

Dana should give the sub of the night bonus to Pierce to get thru knee surgery

I think Rousimar just joined the same shit list as Paul Daley

He is fucking his career up with that shit. I mean he has done it twice in the ufc now, twice on the local circuit, plus he done it in adcc too. You couldn't blame the guys in that division for saying 'I don't want to fight him, he has a track record' etc etc.

Erik Silva got KTFO'd.
