32% of 6128 people believe it was a dive. Numbas are growing sucka!!

I posted all the facts and GIFs. A lot of people have liked and agreed with my comments. I'm happy with what I've posted. You can continue to sit on the sidelines and bitch and moan because you know there's not a damn thing you can do about it! :)

No one with a brain actually thinks he took a dive, people are equating taking a dive with him just showing up for a paycheque/giving up.

Punch landed clean, it was not a thrown fight. Fedor has KO'd many people with that same punch over decades

He KOee Brett Rogers with that punch if i recall correclty
 
The fight wasn't fixed, Rampage is just a washed up fighter at this point. I just hope Coker continues to feed Fedor cans, don't want to see Fedor embarrassed again in there.
 
He comprised his integrity by not getting into shape and not training. He cut weight to reach 265.
 
How is he supposed to win a fight, when he is so fat he probably can't run 1 mil on a treadmill?
 
Back when people made threads about Shamrock throwing the Franklin fight or Forrest griffin throwing the Spider fight there were yellow cards and bans everywhere for fighter bashing.
Today fighter and sport bashing is the new norm on sherdog

Per MMAJUNKIE.com


Quinton Jackson won’t allow a narrative to go answered that he threw the fight against Fedor Emelianenko in the Bellator 237 main event.


It only took moments after Jackson (38-14 MMA, 5-3 BMMA) was caught by a fight-ending punch from Emelianenko (39-6 MMA, 3-2 BMMA) on Saturday for the skeptics to raise questions. It was the first time “Rampage” had been stopped with strikes since 2005, and the shot that put him down might not have landed flush.

Moreover, Jackson came into the fight looking out of shape. His weigh-in registered at a career-high 265 pounds, and the result of all this was an effort that did not paint the former UFC champion in the best light.

But did Jackson compromise his fighting integrity in the most shameful of ways at Bellator 237? He took to social media to clarify that was absolutely not the case (via Instagram).

With the loss to Emelianenko at Saitama Super Arena in Japan, Jackson fell to 4-4 in his career as a heavyweight. He owned up to his lack of preparation and vowed to make changes going forward, saying he would return to light heavyweight moving forward.

What he meant to say is that " he would never do a fixed fight AGAIN" lol
 
Wtf? He got brutally knocked out and people claim he threw the fight?

Just alot of salty people who thought waay to highly of Fatpage and his assured victory now justify that opinion with a fixed narrative. I always thought this fight was a pick-em he's so fat and slow now, his last 2 fights were pillow fisted Chael and Wanderlei (who he had to wait for him to tire before he could land).

Also I'll take any odds Vegas gives that Fatpage will not weigh in under 206. That's as laughable as rampage saying in prefight he was training cardio.

Is it just me, or did Rampage even land a punch during all that time?
He then shook his head like "I'm done".
After all that he is like "win or lose I still get paid"--and I'm going on a diet.
He just forgot to end with "suckas".

Yeah, there's a fine line between a truly fixed fight and a guy who comes in terribly out of shape and gets finished (with very little resistance) as soon as they get in trouble. In other words, a fighter looking for a nice paycheck and an easy way out. Rampage thought he might land a haymaker KO(considering Fedor's soft chin) but had no other gameplan for winning...and didn't really care that much anyway.

Without fighter bashing 90% of the threads wouldn't even be there. It's the only way they can keep their activity up.
 
Another MMA fight where the discussion of it is more entertaining than the fight!

He didn’t take a dive.. Unfortunately rampage has a very long history of not taking training camp serious. Now that he is in his 40s, it’s really coming back to bite him in the ass.

Not only that, but real fighters (even in their 40s) make some effort to stay in shape and train (at least a few times a week) even when they have no scheduled fights. The idea that you can sit on the couch and eat candy bars and play video games for 6-12 months then suddenly train hard for 2-3 months isn't the mindset of any professional athlete. I'm sure Fitch and Machida (both the same age as Rampage) train some even when they don't have scheduled fights.
