im surprised by the lack of people who were all over CB's nuts, I thought they would all be denying the tap

[bowlingsean]

I think that CB should be sending out an apology to all the people that support him as well as Amir for that wonderful display of sportsmanship......I do not know if he was faking the tap to try to get the arm bar loosened up but he definately tapped....and then to have that shitty look on his face like he just got robbed....I do not care if he is a golden boy or a future top 15 at 185, right now he doesn't look much better than Kimbo.......at least Kimbo can punch.....CB = great wrestler but not much more at this time.

I thought the guy was a big overrated cock. He needs to start training in English. You don't have to speak in third person to be cool. Not to mention; get that "I gotta take a dump look off of your face"

Eh, He was just shocked and embarrassed that he got caught the same way again. CB's alright with me... I hope he does well. I can forgive his reaction. Deep down, he knows.

Amir earned every bit of respect he's been getting though, I love that guy.

I am not denying the tap, but I can see where CB would react that way immediately after the fight.. im sure when he watches it over he'll be like ok ya I tapped.. but during the fight it looked like CB didnt mean to tap but did.. me and my friend discussed it at work.. we kinda think CB felt like he was stuck in that armbar with no defense and went for the tap but then was like oh wait a minute let me try slamming Amir on his head first, but had already tapped before that clicked.

Comparing CB to Kimbo is foolish, CB has a well-rounded game.. he doesnt have great standup but its not sucky either.. his submission game isnt bad either.. getting caught in an armbar by a black belt in Sambo is nothing to be ashamed of.. he can still sub a lot of fighters as well.. and his GnP isnt bad.. hes not just a wrestler.

im sure he was just trying to save face, but im still shocked. its weird how i picked gerald harris, cb, and amir as my top 3 and every time it looked like my first 2 were gonna destroy amir, he comes back. i'll give him his credit, but i'm still a lil sour my guy didnt win. cb rules.

Doesn't matter, man. He tapped. Everyone knows it... and so does he.

Amir got hold of his arm, and he panicked. Just like the first fight. In that split second, he thought, "Ah fuck me! This guy's gonna break my arm!"

Then after the fight was called, he realized he probably could have fought out of it. Doesn't matter though.... he tapped.

I said that he tapped...

Sorry.

You're right. He's probably still kicking his own ass over it.

But I'm not buying the whole "Didn't mean to" thing...

At that moment... he meant to.

I agree. He has takedowns but very mediocre GnP at this point and no submission defense it appears. His striking doesn't seem to be on the professional level either.

He seems much better in the blog he wrote. His face often has the look like he has just shit his pants. I don't hate the guy, but the expression he had after the fight was stopped was such a little bitch face.
