Luckily this isn’t a popularity contest, and my “boy” is in the finals…your opinion notwithstanding.
Also, you keep bringing up your validation of how right you were, you are only right in your view, not mine. In my view you basically formed an opinion based on his dress and manner of speech…sounds borderline racist to me.[/quote]
Yes, he is in the finals, and he absolutely deserves to be there. If I had to guess, I’d say he’ll beat ed. BUT we’re not talking about his skill as a fighter - somebody asked why everyone found kendall so annoying - that’s what started all this. So yeah, he’s probably the second-best fighter in this group (behind bisping,) and he might very well be the most improved fighter on the whole show. But that doesnt make him a nice guy, or mean that he’s not a dick.
And dress and manner of speech have nothing to do with race, but thanks for playing.

Yeah this is definitely not a sport he will excel in. I still don’t get how he couldn’t get that rear-naked choke, Josh was flopping like a fish.
Josh isn’t an ADCC champ by any means but he’s got a a decent ground game and is good at getting out of trouble. Here’s one of his earlier fights, kinda similar to his fight w/Jesse:

Cool vid. I think Bisping can beat Haynes, but it wont be easy for him.

Pretty unimpressive. All his supposed “escapes” were just cases where his opponent was so gassed he basically let Josh escape. And the final submission was anticlimactic even for such a lame fight, it took him quite a long time to choke an opponent out who was basically doing letting Josh do whatever he wanted. If his opponent was in better condition, Josh would have lost that fight.
I’m not sure whether Bisping will have an “easy” time beating Josh (who can predict that sort of thing?) but Josh isn’t even in Bisping’s league.
Hey an interesting FYI, my cousin is going to be training at the same gym with Matt very soon and I told him too see if he could get me down there also. I have been wanting to try my hand at MMA for a while now, so hopefully they have some openings or whatever and I can get in as well.

I don’t think that ‘Team Punishment’ even exists any more. A lot of those guys belong to other camps. Tito’s camp is more of an informal thing these days rather than an actual team.

Whatever they are or aren’t called, that’s an incredible gym squad. Barnett is looking jacked.
