    He must feel like he is beating one hype job after another - Pudz, Sapp then Lashley.

    Who does he fight next? Personally I wouldn't mind seeing him and Tim Sylvia scrap or maybe he can go to Bellator and knock out Cole Konrad.

    Ouch. James is going to get murdered. He's a pretty awful fighter, but I love that he still beats every hype job out there.

    I actually feel bad for him. James is as stupid as the day is long. When his career is done he's going to retire from this sport and he won't have his health intact.

    The way Bobby caught him repeatedly doesnt bode well for JT.

    That loss was a fix. There's no way JT won every round. At worst it was a Majority Draw. Or may be majority decision for Bobby. Either way JT is on borrowed time.

    I dont know about a fix, but I though maybe Bobby had done enough to take the 3rd. Not going to be rewatching it in a hurry to score it again though :lol:

    How did they score all 3 rounds to JT when Bobby clearly won the first and possibly the last? No way was that a UD for JT.

    I didnt even take notice that they gave all three to Jimbo. Bobby definitely won the 1st on his opening 3 minutes alone. Shame he'll never have the gas to keep that up or the finishing ability to end it whilst he's on top

    James was busier in the last two esp[ecially the 2nd, but got rocked badly in the 3rd, Id give the last two rounds at one a piece

    Exactly which makes it a majority decision for Bobby. His teams game plan sucked ass though. Why was he shooting for a single leg when all he needed to do was punch James in face repeatedly and watch him wilt.. Going by James face alone at the end of the fight it was easy to see he lost quite clearly.

    I wonder if Bobby was on a one fight deal, might explain it.

    I wouldnt be surprised if a glancing blow from JT KO'ed Duffee too. Duffee is just as big a meathead with horrendously overrated 'striking' (if you can even call it that). He's just a young kid on gear trying he's luck. JT still has oodles more experience to deal with a guy like him.
