Taura MMA 11: Moreira vs Wilson

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

How does Bigfoot keep getting sanctioned to fight? His brains have been scrambled too many times for a career in his current giant losing streak alone.

The rule is if you beat fedor you're allowed to fight forever.

Silva vs. Martin
Antônio Silva, TKO, R2
for those who are picking Brett Martin, keep this in mind. I watched his last fight live, I doubt too many of you saw it as it was after LFAs deal with AXS ended and before the Fight Pass deal started. Brett is not a good fighter, he is ridiculously fat. When I say he his waaaaaaaaaay worse than Roy Nelson you have to believe me. He is extremely slow and has no gas tank. In his last fight he spent most of his time leaning against James on the cage "shooting" for a double. He is not good at all

With that in mind.. Brett Martin by Submission Rd 1

I saw Brett Vs Renan. He’s super fat. Soft as hell & belongs at 185. But he’s like athletic fat. Like if u took a guy that’s actually good and just had him eat a box of twinkles twice a day for 6 months. When he starts getting hit he also looks like he wants out. But having said that... he hits hard. Very hard. And Bigfoots head is very very hard to miss.
Not only is he slow as all **** but his head looks like it should be attacked to a giant tree sloth back in the Pleistocene epoch.
The real Bigfoot if he exists is the last surviving member of the giant sloth species so it’s an apt moniker.
Perhaps strangely he also can’t take a punch. One would expect a skull that’s inches thick would offer good insulation but it seems like it’s just not so. His heads so huge that his brain has space to bounce around in there when he’s hit I guess.
Having said that if bigfoot can complete a takedown early then it should be over. He is a very experienced ground fighter and laying under him is something I think we’d all prefer not experience.
Why he’s fighting at 265 I can’t say.
If he needs money he should roid back up to 350 and do the freak show circuit in the Far East. He said years ago that he can’t produce testosterone very well cause health issues and now he’s pushing 40. Now maybe he did do some juice this time but he’s weight worries me.
We will know at the weighin 

Silva vs. Martin
Antônio Silva, TKO, R1
Hope this ******* can take a punch from this chubby man

Silva vs. Martin
Brett Martin, TKO, R1
Silva should have retired like 5 years ago. This is getting ****** up and sad. I hope he wins this fight just because it's depressing watching him get knocked out over and over. Martin has won his last 2 fights by DQ so maybe there's a chance but I really doubt it.

Santos vs. ****man
Paulo Sergio Santos, TKO, R1
I don't trust anyone coming off a 3 year layoff and 2 losses.

Caballero vs. Smith
Josh Smith, DEC
I think That Guy is gonna win

Zaripov vs. Betancourt
Dilshod Zaripov, DEC
Gotta go with stronger coaching with these lower level fights
