Yeah it was definitely late there but it's a loud ass environment. It didn't change the round at least. Mendes made it up with a eye poke and two nut kicks.Quote:

My issue isn't with Aldo as much as that assclown of a ref should have physically been between them by that point. He's no Herb DeanQuote:

The ref definitely is no Herb Dean and probably has a vagina.
Mendes going to need a KO to win this.
Aldo is exhausted. Mendes needs to go balls out for the ko even if it puts him in a place to get ko'd
all my English feeds seem to be stopped/down.
Anyone else?

49-46 on all cards and I agree with it. Mendes made some moves and tested Aldo at times but he couldn't follow up enough.
His corner fucked him over by even letting him think it was close on the cards. They should have had him going for broke and head hunting in the 5th instead of that takedown shit.Quote:

I agree and even if the rounds were close which I didn't feel many were those typically will go to the champ. You got to go for broke being a challenger not leaving it up to the judges and that is basic strategy 101.Quote:

I find watching the pressers from Brazil to be almost unwatchable due to the translating thing.
Its all psychology. Some fighters can motivate based off the truth, others dont handle it well and tend to panic. Very rarely does the corner genuinely misrepresent the fight by accident.Quote:

It's insane that they state with so much certainty what the score is when it's shown time & time again they have no idea how it's being scored.Quote:

i think thats exactly what my point wasnt, but i dont care too much.
Roman Polanski's daughter is going to be in Vikings Season 3. Id much rather discuss that.
