I was surprised to see how in shape he was (this was only 1 year ago), and he spoke a bit about the place.....I didn´t ask nothing about MMA to him, but he was like the most regular person you would ever meet, and gave a pat on the back of my friend when he was leaving like if he was one more person in the crowd......
Shame that so few people recognized him...That´s the problem with many of the new MMA fans here, they don´t know the fighters pre-2011

I've heard that the damage he has taken has started to effect his speech. Is that true?

Nah, because Shogun speaks a LOT like him......it´s just a strong accent from Curitiba..

I know you've been saying that Anderson isnt very popular in Brazil Vic, which Im sure is a surprise to most posters.

Who is the most popular, Im guessing Nog or Wandy

Yes. Nog and Wandy are very very popular....Aldo and JDS now too....

Belfort divides opinions....

Yeah, actually I was also surprised to see so many AS haters in brazilian forums too, but he is popular between the casual fans...

Is it his ego? His lack of finishing opponents as soon as he should and constantly toying with them? This surprises me as well.

BTW, I saw Silva-Sonnen 1 finally and it was a scrap albeit one-sided. Anderson seemed to have taken Sonnen lightly and just got clobbered for the most part. Was prettyy epic that he got the submission at the end and I'm pretty excited for the rematch.

Cheers Vic, nice to see a different perspective

Anyway...I watched me some Condit v MacDonald last night, and listening to the commentary in the 1st it was bugging me how biast Joe and Goldy were so I turned the sound off and rewatched it

Ive got to say, the 1st round was Condits imo. He buckled Rory's knees with a right hand, landed more on the feet and the mat, tied up Rory when taken down and constantly stopped him posturing up, stopped him passing guard and got back too his feet three times

I guess it depends how highly you score TD's on their own. Rory landed some nice counters which backed Carlos up

Anyone fancy giving the first round a watch to see if Im talking out my ass on this one?

Ne5ville14 · 07-04-2012, 01:10 PM

I prolly watched the event live...I'll download it and post in the scorecard thread my insight on it !

Stoo · 07-04-2012, 01:16 PM

Nice one nev, I had it 1-1 going into the 3rd, but obviously those TD's won Rory the round

Yeah, that fight was not the one sided beatdown that everyone seems to remember. I think everyone was just so shocked at how well Rory was doing that they mistook it for pure dominance.

Stoo · 07-04-2012, 02:26 PM

I seriously think if you turn off the commentary on that one it makes a big difference

Joe & Goldy were doing their best Jim Ross impressions

Rob_Floyd · 07-04-2012, 02:32 PM

Rory's fight with Nate wasn't as dominant as people remember, either, outside of the third round.

Ne5ville14 · 07-05-2012, 12:59 AM

Condit Vs McDonald

Round 1
Close round...you could give the round to Condit for the most significant strike in the round...Rory for the TD, but he didn't do shit with it . Since he didn't do shit with the TD I give the round to Condit...but judge prolly gave the round to McDonald

Round 2
Even closer round....Condit had some good knee, great scrap on the ground...but lost it. But I think McDonald had the edge on the more significant strike in this round. Round 2 for McDonald, judge prolly gave the round to him too...
So it's 1-1

Round 3
All Condit...10-8 round....So on the official card I guess it would have been a draw...mine would be 30-27 Condit...but it never went to decision... !

I watch the fight with commentary but I didn't agree with Rogan....youre right he was riding his nut during the fight !

Btw I forgot to say something important too....AS is disliked by many fans of Palmeiras and São Paulo (brazilian football/soccer teams), because he is a fanatical Corinthians fan.....and can be weird to some hardcore fans support him while he is using a Corinthians t-shirt and talks about the team in the interviews, etc, you know.....
And yesterday Corinthians won the Libertadores, so.....
