UFC 140: Jones vs. Machida


Recommended Posts

PPV portion starting right now.

 

Big fights are:

 

Jon Jones vs. Lyoto Machida for Light Heavyweight Championship

Frank Mir vs. Big Nog (Potential title implications on the line as well)

Tito Ortiz (Possibly his last fight) vs. Lil Nog

 

Also on the card is Brian Ebersole vs. Claude Patrick and Chan Sung Jung (AKA "The Korean Zombie") vs. Mark Hominick.

 

A very nice card to say the least. Looking forward to it.

Korean Zombie KO's Hominick 7 seconds into the 1st round after Hominick comes out swinging wildly, which is completely out of character for him. Fighting in front of his hometown got him a little too jacked up for his own good.

 

It was a sick finish (tied the UFC record for fasted KO) but I was really looking forward to this fight as I thought it was going to be an absolute war.

That Big Nog/Mir finish was amazing.

 

The sub Mir pulled off after being basically out on his feet was awesome. Him pulling it off on Big Nog of all people? Epic.

 

Nogueria made a huge mistake by trying to transition into a sub when he had Mir dead to rights, but Nogueria built his career on his BJJ so it is understandable that when he has the chance to finish a fight, he would go to his bread and butter. You have to know that he is thinking that he would've easily won this fight had he simply continued to ground and pound Mir.

 

Well, at this moment he is probably thinking about his completely jacked up arm, but later on he will be beating himself up over that.
