• Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version.

When a coach gives the wrong advice…

During an eyepoke break, Alex’s coach, Andreas Michael, repeatedly yelled ‘front kick, Alex!’ Rumble said he heard this and as soon as the eyepoke break was over Gus threw the frontkick and Rumble timed it and cracked him bad.

Ouch, are there any other examples like this in MMA?

I'd like to see that edited together like a narrative instead of dual screen. It would really have that Curb impact.

This is probably why Randleman was so successful. He never listened poor Coleman, shouting himself hoarse, and the opponent kept expecting him to follow instructions.

Rumble was definitely planning for the head kick. From this angle and likely due to frame rate of the gif it looks like Rumble’s head connected on Gus’ chin.

That is what every Gus fan said when the KO happened. It could have been the reason though yeah.

I remember Gus shutting down the headbutt completely at the post presser giving all the praise to Rumble but it certainly looks like he got headbutted. Damn shame.
 
Sherk vs Penn…

In the final few seconds of a very good round for Sherk, his corner shouted for him to take Penn down and secure the round…

Ended up level changing into a Sagat Tiger Knee…
 
Everyone's favorite😈

Both fighters can hear it --

but with language barriers, they may or may not understand the "coaching".

It's a fight and you take your chances.

That was also an illegal head but. Of course Goddard misses it like everything else.
 
Longo was right. Frevola should have turned into Ziam. I think he assumed that Frevola would pummel and keep Ziam close. Ziam just pushed Frevola’s head out with his right and zapped him. Good advice, bad execution.
