Nonetheless, if the round had continued, Roy would have kept on with the "taps", they woulda piled up and eventually after a few mintues they would have gotten to Kimbo's head, and the round would have been scored 10-8. JUst cause there is no visible damage doesnt mean the fighter's head/brain is paying for it. |
"Physical damage" holds no bearing,
Otherwise Mark Hunt would never lose.
GSP would have lost the 1st fight to BJ based on Physical Damage.

I don't really care about a guys ego that much, Roy is not a top tier fighter. Fight facts: Roy took him down, got mount, crucified and pounded his face in twice. | Don't see how this reflects my involvement in TUF draama
Real facts: I said I didin't care about Kimbo's progression in the TUF show
I said I wasn't impressed with Roy Nelson's performance given his experience and hype.
That makes me caught up in TUF drama how? It seems like you're making irrational excuses for peoples opinions because they differ from your own.

I guess everyone missed the point that Kimbo DIDN'T EVEN COMPLAIN ABOUT THE STOPPAGE.
YOU GUYS ARE AND THE FIGHTER DIDN'T..........STRANGE.
Kimbo was dominated, defeated and Roy was able to do so without injuring himself or the other fighter. Awesome.
Get a grip. It wasn't pretty, but I GUARANTEE YOU KIMBO WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THAT "UGLY VICTORY" ON HIS RECORD......AND IF HE SAYS HE DOESN'T, HE'S LYING.
Edit: Didn't Dana kind of sound like the infamous $kala???? "He hit him like I let my daughter hit me...."

Im just saying that Kimbo did get dominated in that fight, regardless of the amount of power roy used in those punches. I think Herb Dean knew the punches werent hurting Kimbo but he also knew if he let the fight go through till the end of the round, the athletic commision would have come down on him for letting a fighter go on without intelligently defending himself.

Bottom line... Kimbo looked good on the feet and rattled Nelson... He layed on the ground like a dead fish when he was taken down. Critique- Kimbo either needs to work heavily on TKD or Ground game because he sucks ass on the ground!
Nelson was less than impressive in the win. He pitter patted the TOP of Kimbo's head and basically layed and prayed and smothered Kimbo with his belly. However a win is a win.
