Pudz taps, was he just scared to get hit?

    Pudz tried some leg kicks at first, but as soon as he realized he couldn't win the fight on his feet, he went for the wrestle.

    Then the two men stood around against the wall displaying ridiculous action packed skill while they embraced eachother virtually doing nothing, but Pudz doing everything in his power to make sure he doesn't get hit.

    Then as soon as Slyvia did some crappy boxing, hit Pudz with a few jabs, Pudz looked like he was about to cry, then he went straight back into the wrestle again.

    Same thing as before.

    Then fast foward, he willingly goes to the ground in a fetal position, Slyvia looks at him like WTF?

    Kicks him on the ground, then hits him with some short punches that had little leverage behind them and Pudz was done.

    But honestly, it was basically like almost any other MMA fight. Crappy boxing, and then two guys holding eachother up agianst the fence.

    Makes a guy like Anderson Silva look superhuman.

    Anyway, just an observation.

    What do you think about Pudz performance?

    He called it a day. The guy gassed a minute into the fight and was being used for target practice, realized it was futile to continue and just curled up.

    these guys who have never fought until they are old are not used to getting hit and obviously don't know how to deal with it.

    Watch some Fedor fights and you'll see that while he is getting hit flush in the face repeteadly by big punchers he is still maneuvering to get an arm bar or a kimora or some **** like that.

    i think it's simple, he was gassed and had no idea how to win it. imo he should kick all the time, cause sylvia looked hurt after first pudz's kick, but then again after the fight i've heard he broke leg so what should he do?? just hold on to get hit a couple more times? i'm curious what's he gonna do now :D

    Quite honestly, he looked great...in the first 30-40 second. He smoked Sylvias legs with a couple kicks and THREW him to the floor like a ragdoll. Unfortunatly, I think he is a little confused. This is the fight game, where you have to sustain your attack and beat up your opponent. It really looked like he was just trying to prove how strong he was and that was somehow going to win it for him..??

    And of course after thirty seconds he had no energy throw sylvia around anymore, and absolutely no skill to counter anything sylvia did. It was kinda pathetic. He was so gasse out he literally fell down from exhaustion and tapped because I believe he was too tired to take anymore punishment(which wasn't all that bad really).

    He needs to decide how serious he wants to take this. He needs the cardio to go three rounds. He needs to learn how to throw a punch(a good over hand right always floors sylvia).

    As Bas Rutten said: "he needs to work on everything.."


    It was fun. lol

    I guess you can say that happened but you really can fault him for it at this point. This guy had only 2 quick MMA fights and now all of a sudden hes in the 2nd round vs a 2 time UFC Heavyweight Champion who if nothing else has decent stamina and keeps up the pressure. Im sure everything got to him and he mentally broke as many people would in that same situation.

    I don't think Couture vs Toney is either. Penn vs Edgar rematch will be main event.

    Once Tim was able to stop his TD's and gas him out because of it it was over for Pudz. He cannot throw a punch at all so he really didn't know what to do.
