Why the hell did Mike Breeden just get cut?

[don't ask]

I believe a few clips of that exist. It's something he regularly did. Pacing and barking. It was just a way to relieve tension just as he was about to go out to fight. Its a fairly common thing for fighters to do,but Fedor,who is usually so stoic,its a hell of a thing to see that.

here y'all go @don't ask

Hahahaha that's amazing. When I heard the sound, I felt a bit of recognition. I think I've heard a clip of him doing it before, but I don't remember the pacing and face-slapping.

It sounds loser-ish to say I have internet regrets, but there's a bunch of Pride stuff outside of the fights that I regret not watching. At the time I was only interested in the fights, but now the internet is awash with UFC social media bullshit and I regret not watching stuff with the Pride fighters being themselves outside the ring.

I just woke up. this might be incoherent.

Mike was fighting some fighter from India. The broadcast team was building him up as some great prospect from that (enormous) country. The UFC probably wouldn't mind breaking into that market.

Anyways, it was 2-0 India going into the 3rd. Mike walking this guy down. He started barking like a dog, chanting USA, and just generally acting a fool. The Indian guy proceeded to fall apart, and Mike managed to knock him out for a comeback W.

It was so dumb. That's the first time I've seen a guy winning the entire fight suddenly get intimidated by the opponent he's beating up because he starts talking smack. I don't know what that says about the other fighter. He could have just kept touching and moving and easily won the fight. Instead he froze and basically gave up.

Fight was awful. They should cut the Indian as well
If they want an Indian, sign Bhullar from One

He should have made weight before knocking out the sacred cash cow.

I think Breeden hurt him bad with body shot at some point in round 2. His body language completely changed and I don't think it was just the barking.

Isn't he the guy who admitted (at his post fight presser) to knowingly fighting with a staph infection? If so, that is next level stupidity.

But he is a Just Bleed (tm) Warrior… he just might bleed some staph onto you

* Admitted to having staph after the fight which they didn't like

* Not only beat their hopefully Indian cash cow but made him look like the biggest pussy ever

* Didn't make weight

* Isn't really that good anyways
