warren prevented a fight yet won sad for mma

warren won the fight via workrate. a win is a win but he didn't win many fans tonight.
 
warren brings it every single fight and always tries to do damage, which is a lot better than the guys who go out there looking to spar like the guy in your av
 
Man warren lost me as a fan..
I grew up as a wrestler but wtf was that.. Reminded of my pug that used to hump my leg.
 
I thought it was a good fight. Stalling is what Pages opponent did. I think Ben Askren nailed it (much to the displeasure of his boss).. "If you want to see two guys stand in the middle of the cage and hit each other in the face, there’s a sport called boxing."
 
On one hand, I don't like LnP and on the other, I hate champs who fight less than once a year. On the whole, Dantas lost and he has nobody to blame other than himself.
 
Good fight, absolutely right decision.
Deal with it.
 
Is it just me or does Joe Warren suck? He needs to retire so people can care about the division...Usually the lighter weight classes are at least exciting, but he makes me want to stick a fork in my eye!

He doesnt suck, but he is pretty one dimensional (althoiugh to his credit he mixed it up a little bit more last night) and his " baddest man" schtick comes off as forced and comical.

So Dantas deserved to win why? If you don't think controlling a fight is a way to win, then get rid of time limits.

And get ready for the average fight to resemble Shamrock/Severn II.

Seriously though, what the shit? There was nothing wrong with that fight.
 
My DVR cut out in the 5th. So what happened after the kick to the face when it looked like Warren might get a point deducted? I know Joe won.

Yeah sure but if you just want to lay on top of a dude there is another sport called wrestling.

Yeah...that's not what they do in wrestling. Stalemates are broken up and points are given to your opponent if you are too passive.

Laying on your back, with your legs spread, clinging to the guy on top is what stalls fights. That isn't wrestling.

Anyway, Warren is awesome, and it was a good fight.
 
So all the cage grabbing being spoken about had zero influence on the fight as none of it was intentional in order to thwart a takedown it was either when leaning against the cage or instinctual reaching but again with no counter force in play. The illegal kick was accidental and also ended up (thankfully) having no influence either way on the fight. There was a lot of glove holding which was a little more concerning but again hardly worth mentioning. Warren fought a hard earned and well executed game plan to win. Dantas needed to KO him in the fifth. I could have seen this going either way but can't complain. Warren is a Badass. But mark my words, Dantas will get his belt back
 
I thought the fight was good. The first round was key. Warren was landing on Dantas standing, and it made Dantas hesitant throughout most of the fight. Dantas was forced to play catch up as Warren was never down in the fight. He was also hesitant to go all for the finish. Warren clearly deserved the win.
 
Didn't watch because I knew that is how he fights. Nobody wants to watch that crap.
 
Not a big fan of Warren as far as his personality goes but he won that fight. I think it's safe to say everybody had it 2-2 going into the last round. Last round was the worst for Dantas, he landed close to nothing.
Dantas knew what was coming and wasn't able to stop Warren. He has had his chances, rocked Warren in the 2nd and took his back.
 
Warren came in....the fighter that he is....and defeated Dantas...that fighter that HE is...

Styles make fights. TS, you are just mad that your Brasilian didn't win. But here's a hint for how you SHOULD have felt if you were unbiased and rational:

Dantas COULD NOT overcome Warrens grinding style. Dantas had his own skill sets, and didn't execute them onto Warren. Blaming Warren for a "boring" fight is LITERALLY an excuse. You should man up and admit this....
