Some juges go for the hometown guy....Not just brazil.

lol at racism :redface: Not to many racists have ever said "yeah but them damn Brazilians! "

It comes out at every single Brazillian card : "Americans can't win a decision in Brazil". There is zero evidence for any streak of robberies and people act like the country is ruled by corruption and nationalism. Look at the level of stupidity displayed in that thread.

No didn't you know? That win didn't count because he was clowning!!

It counts, it was just a weird and unusual fight/stoppage

Oh yeah another one:

-TJ beat Assuncao.

Thank you. i thought watching that fight live(havent rewatched)

Assuncao landed the heavier blows and controlled how that fight played out. I figured it was weird all the people claiming robbery. might have to rewatch i guess

"I never heard of Brock Lesnar until he signed with the UFC."
"I never heard of CM Punk until he signed with the UFC."

I know some older wrestlers but I first heard about those two on MMA related news.

Racism is perhaps too strong a word, but nationality certainly factors into it. Whenever a foreign fighter wins a robbery people assume that the judges are from that country. People assume the judges for Bisping vs Hamill were British, all of the "Wow, were those judges Irish" comments after the latest Pendred fight. There are plenty of other examples too.

You know what I didn't see? People saying "wow, were those judges American?" after Diego got the decision against Gomi in Japan, or when Elkins beat Omigawa in Canada.

Some pretty strong retadation on display there....Strikland lost that fight.

there are people in that thread that were normal tho. so take it for what it is i guess.

That's my point, Diego wins one of the worst decision ever and that's just bad luck, but people complain about corrupt Brazilians when an American loses a fight he actually lost.

The real myth is that either one is important, or in anyway linked to the quality of a persons posts or mma "knowledge."

Another myth: Aging isn't real. We can live forever.

Prominent advocates of this extreme idiocy: Moneymma

Another myth: being on 16 fight winstreak at 37 or 38 clearly shows you should retire
Lmao dude looked great b4 that fight,but as soon as he lost he was out of his prime
Hendo is out of his prime,silva wasnt
As soon as romero losses he will be out of his prime
You sound like idiot

 

[Moneymma]

Sherdog logic, where a 37 year old man is considered to be in his athletic prime. LOL come on man, no one is that stupid

Excuses
He was on a 16 fight win streak or 17 i dont know,point is he was beating best guys until magicly his prime ended after bonner fight. He looked old and slow and didnt look like himself,didnt have roids too
The chris>silva

The solution to this puzzle is of course that Silva was in fact out of his prime before he lost. Everyone who isn't a blithering moron knew this. You seem to be confused about what it means to be out of your prime. It means you are not as good as you once were, not that you should retire immediately.

But it's clear why you feel the need to play dumb (over and beyond how dumb you actually are): You pretend Silva was in his prime so the object of your nuthugging attention can receive maximum credit for his victory.

Brazil gonna Brazil. It's true only about 90% of the time. :icon_chee

"I never heard of Brock Lesnar until he signed with the UFC."
"I never heard of CM Punk until he signed with the UFC."

This is true to me. WWE is virtually unknown in Brazil.
