Wanderlei-Crocop: Best Staredown ever in mma?

Haha! That's a great staredown! That's why there always needs to be a third party to break it up. Otherwise fighters will just stare at each other forever! They're like hungry dogs waiting for that one sign of weakness in their opponent.

 

Frye/Thompson was verging on comedy...

do you want people getting in each others face, do you want a stone cold stare, do you want a man possessed and looking ready to pounce...

...it all depends.

incredible staredown nevertheless.

 

That is a ****ing serious staredown.

 

you are definitely making the best picks.

honestly didn't see either blink.

 

You beat me to it

 

If I remember correctly he actually beat the **** out of Don Frye in that fight.

 

it was a great fight.

 

Nah i didnt think so. Thompson is a can. It was a shame to see Frye simply wilt on the ropes refuse to go down while taking punishment from a guy he would have wrecked in his prime.

 

Hmmm not really. James apparently had studied psychology and had a degree in it. He knew exactly what to do to entertain the Japanese fans who labelled his style the "Gong and dash". He was also a former bodybuilder. With his massive size and frame he knew exactly how to act in order to become a fan favourite with the Japanese.
Only problem is he had the fighting IQ of a rock and a chin made of bone china....

 

that first one was brilliant, made me laugh
