Palhares Vs Marquardt UFC Fight Night 22

Palhares has already come out and apologised.

 

Yea, Greg Jackson made sure that any and everybody with authority checked the leg to prove it wasn't greased, which nobody seems to believe it was.

Just an incredibly stupid move on Palhares' part, he could have won that fight.

 

Palhares humiliated himself and robbed everyone of a headline fight, it was so pathetic. I doubt he will ever fight again in the UFC.

 

Protect yourself at all times. It did look questionable but Nate went straight up to Herb Dean so that should be good enough. I'm sure Nate practiced alot of escapes and he did employ a well known escape of turning and pulling.

 

Nate said after that he had a hard warm up to get himself wet so he could slide out of situations like that. I must say at first i did wonder myself how he slides out so fast but as some have already said defend yourself at all times.

 

I wouldn't be suprised if Nate got sweaty early when he is facing a sub specialist.

 

I thank God that garbage got beaten up for being stupid.

 

:-( :nono

 

Why the Toquinho hate?

 

maybe im wrong but is this the same meathead who tried to break someones leg holding it for 5 secs last time out? and acted as he didnt know? if he is that guy he deserves to get his stupid ass beaten like nate did.

 

Don't remeber the last fight, but he has a bit of a history with holding on until the ref stops him.

 

Chimba's right. Palhares cranked WAY after the ref tried to step in the fight before Nate.

 

Fair point. He acted stupid then and he acted stupid vs Nate.

 

I see a lot of people say this, but it just isn't true.

Palhares did **** that man's knee up on purpose. If you want to hate him for that, fine. Palhares torqued the knee before the ref jumped in. Rogan and slow motion tried to make it look different than it was. His opponent screamed before the ref ever made it. The damage was done when the opponent was screaming or just before. Palhares let go when the ref came in and touched his leg.
