I just think you've got to score "having a guy on the edge of being knocked out for ten minutes" more than busywork punches.

When he didn't make weight my gut told me to switch to Prachnio but I didn't listen

Anyone who call that fight a robbery should wear a helmet. Didn’t watch the 1st round but in the most of the second and 3rd Round Khali was getting outstruck, the only reason it close it was because he wobble him at the end

>Trust me I wanted Rountree to win, but Marcin was just throwing too many shots. Rountree was throwing 1 shot for every 3 that Marcin threw.


3rd round was clearly with Prachnio, but imho the first 2 were with Rountree. But not a robbery, only maybe a wrong decision as Rountree is younger, imho the bigger cashcow and more conducive to UFC's business interests than Prachnio.

Anyone remember 2014 when Pena said a male training partner attacked her and injured her knee. Then everyone found out it was ******** and shes just nuts. Petridge Farm remembers

@duck saying you can judge a whole fight when you didn’t even watch a third of it, and other people are the ones who should be wearing a helmet? God damn you’re a moron, at least try.

Rountree won the first two so the third “didn’t matter,” by that logic. I guess I could have skipped the third round, you dunce.
