He watched the WWE pay per view instead. He ran some sort of chat for it on Slam Wrestling’s website.

I was watching both…

But…I have a pretty bad headache and am actually going to sleep right now.

Still recovering from the wedding yesterday? lol

Just kidding. Hopefully you’ll feel better for the next few LOR shows.

Was the draw in the main event poetic justice for Varner flopping so hard after ever groin shot and straight begging for a point deduction?Varner has a habit of milking the rules-anywhere from calling time out when he was in trouble against Razor Rob so he could get his mouth peice back,to the quasi-legal knee he took against Cowboy,to clutching his eye and running away against Ben Henderson.Not to mention the time he straight ran away so bad against Franca that he got a point taken away.

It only seems fitting that his constant antics finally come back to bite him in the end.

Yep

I’ll laugh about it as I don’t care too much for Varner either and his Josh Koshcheck-esque antics.

by Blair Russell on Jun 20, 2010 11:49 PM EDT up reply actions  

LOL

Yes Karma killed Varner today. Awful officiating gave him the time outs and awful officiating gave him the draw

C'mon Neil!

You don’t know what a split draw is and how it’s different from a majority draw? Wow.

by Blair Russell on Jun 20, 2010 11:48 PM EDT reply actions  

A draw is a draw to me

No winner = draw, I don’t care about a differntiation on what kind of draw it was.

shit

I ain’t even madd at that decision….Kamal won the 3rd….Varner won the second….and the first round could have been a 10-10…Shalorus was landing HEAVY leg kicks on that first round…

Yeah

I could see it that way, but if that was the case add the point agaisnt Kamal and he should have won. I see where your coming from, but I thought Varner landed the heavier blows in the 1st

Well

I also blame Kamal for using a TRBL gameplan. I mean, barely using his great wrestling skills during the fight, instead throwing BOMBZ? That’s rather baffling to me.

by Blair Russell on Jun 20, 2010 11:59 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah, agreed. Dissapointing

Bart Palaszewski

According to Wiki, he’s only 3-2 in the WEC. But, like you said, that’s probably good enough for them.

by Blair Russell on Jun 21, 2010 12:01 AM EDT reply actions  

Shawn Tompkins,the man who thought it was a good idea for Mark Coleman to stand up with Randy Couture and not take him down.

The only way Mark Coleman could have won that fight was to take Randy down and get his lay and pray on for the majority of two rounds.But Shawn Tompkins convinced Coleman that he could knockout Couture,and we all saw what ended up happening.The guy who was actually moderatly competitive with Shogun for 14 minutes got straight killed for 6.5 minutes or so.

Hey now, don’t make fun of Butthead! He tried his best on very short notice. But yeah, I’ll remember that he’s tall and skinny and as white as Sheamus (and looks like Beavis’s pal) rather than his skillz.

by Blair Russell on Jun 21, 2010 12:07 AM EDT reply actions  

He was tall

That’s about all I’ve got to say about him, I think.

Yeah

And plus, he was just interviewed on the show.

Then again, briefly Jake Shields was on here last summer, and after his Mayhem fight, I haven’t heard you dudes say too many complimentary things about him.

Did you guys see the video of Anderson Silva training with Steven Segal?Thoughts?

I haven’t seen it yet, but I did find it on YouTube.

As Bishop would say, big fat oldSteven Seagal teaching Anderson MMA skillz or whatever sounds like a doozy, and it should be a laugh riot.

by Blair Russell on Jun 21, 2010 12:20 AM EDT up reply actions  

nah

but I heard about it.

It’s on BloodyElbow if you want to watch it.

Basically Segal teaching Anderson a lot of things that are going to lead to Anderson clowning on Sonnen for 25 minutes.Like how to dodge a punch and straight slap a man in the face.Literally.

Never fought again after the Melvin fight.He was pretty old already,and had hardly any fights.Probably a wise idea to call it a career.

Submission of the Night

I’d sure as heck hope that Grispi would get it, given LC Davis’s eyes after the choke was released, which is still haunting me.
