King Mo: "Sherdog y'all knew I won"

Lets all be honest about one thing. No one actually honestly cares that Mo lost the decision. He's pretty much a poor man's Askren at this point. He wrestles out of fear.

People have gotten too accustomed to scoring a takedown more than a punch...

"Control" only means something if something is able to be done with it... We don't reward the boxer for running circles around the opponent if he NEVER throws a punch while doing it. Infact, we likely penalize him for avoiding combat, no?. Lets call a spade a spade...

Chandler and Mo were a real wake-up call to MMA, I hope.

The judges were real consistent in their criteria. The yamauchi fight on thr undercard, I fully expected him to lose after being taken down and not trying to get back up (instead attacking from his back).
 
I rewatched the fight. Based on how most fights are scored, Mo wins that fight. But the way I'd like to see fights judged and the way I believe fights should be judged, Rampage won that fight. King Mo took round 1, Rampage took 2 and 3 and if they got rid of this round-by-round scoring bullshit, Rampage absolutely won that fight.
 
That was a good shoutout.
 
I fully expected Mo to get the decision but was happy to hear Rampage as the winner.

Rampage did all the damage. All Mo did was take him down a couple times and hang on. Rampage came to fight, Mo just tried to get the points. I hope more judges start scoring like that.
 
He won... the first round.

The rest of the fight was mostly standup, which he lost. You can't be outstruck for 4 minutes in a round and expect to win off of 1 minute of uneventful wrestling. (this isn't the ufc)
 
Anyone that thinks King Mo won that "fight" doesn't really want to watch COMBAT sports.

Page is the one going to a party right afterwards.

King Mo was going to the hospital to get his eye checked.

This is something I can definitely agree with. I really thought they were going to give it to Mo based on the weight judges usually put on takedowns regardless of damage done, attempts blocked, etc...

As someone said earlier, the judges were consistent with this for most fights, and I really appreciated it.

Fantastic judging ... hope it continues.

Enough of this holding someone down and doing absolutely nothing with it crap.
 
Rampage won, he came to fight, Mo came to not lose.
 
mo won under unified scoring criteria

rampage won the fight

im glad rampage got his arm raised, mo fought scared and ran away for portions of the fight

For reference: you have absolutely not accrued one second of time spent in top position until after you have passed the guard. Not before. Forward pressure from top guard is basically asking to get armbarred. The whole reason it's called top control is because, SURPRISE: from mount, side control, etc., you have the ability to control their whole body by distributing your weight. But, you cannot establish top control without first passing guard because, from guard, it is really only possible to pressure via distributing your weight over their hips (aka PASSING GUARD).

Those inane UFC "time spent in top position" counters, when really the guy has spent NO time in top position, have all fooled you.

Crap judges-- that award 10-9s to whoever was in top guard for 2 minutes because they don't know shit about grappling-- do not invalidate truth.

even bjj tournaments score takedowns into guard.

it counts even more in mma because you can use your weight to gnp him
 
Nobody finished the fight, so nobody won.
Decisionwins are bullshit anyway.
MMA wasn't supposed to have judges, it was the plan from the beginning to see what happened if 2 men fought without judges and the only way to win was to finish the other guy.
Ever since judges came in, bullshit decionswins are given to the guy who looks better during the fight according to 3 judges, but let's be honest, if you didn't finish, then what the hell did you win ???
Kinda like 2 sprinters that don't make it to the finish, but one gets a gift win anyway.
 
Mo did win the fight, regardless of all the "He did nothing" bs. Sure he didn't do much but he did secure a good amount of takedowns and control Rampage on the ground, where as all Rampage really did was a land a few punches here and there.


Honestly when Rampage says "You out-wrestled me." to me that almost sounds like he is agreeing that Mo beat him. If you get out-wrestled in an MMA fight and fail to do any significant with your strikes you should lose. He had Mo's face a bit fucked but I don't really remember ever thinking Mo was close to being finished.

If you can't sprawl and brawl you didn't come to fight, you came to get laid on. So tired of people only blaming wrestlers for boring fights. The guy on bottom can get up if he knows what he is doing, and he can stick the takedowns if he is a good enough fighter.

Look at Anderson Silva, back in the day in one of his early MMA fights he straight got LnP'd and lost. So he adapted to the game and started punishing anyone who attempted that on him with slick subs and solid strikes from his back. A true Mixed Martial Artist prepares for everything.

If you really came to fight, then train for all aspects. This isn't boxing, this is MMA where getting taken down is a huge possibility especially when you are fighting a wrestler.
 
When I was a kid, if king mo would moved his mouth down and brushed it against Rampage's nipple, it would've been called 2nd base.

When I was a kid we drank and chased girls. We didn't spend our time worrying about what it would be called if a man put his mouth on another man's nipple.
