And of course, Hughes was a prick in his response:
"Before my Royce fight, I had three bulged discs that I was able to repair enough to fight." |

Re: The Ultimate Fighter / UFC thread
Yeah, huge letdown for me not to see that fight. Now GSP and Hughes are in limbo for a very long time. It's all messed up.
Wonder what Dana will do to fill in the gap, do you supposse he's calling Jardine, Griffin, Shogun, Thiago right now to try to set something up? There are a bunch of guys in the LH's that need to beat each other up to find out the pecking order against Rampage. |

[ QUOTE ]
bdk, I'm always surprised at how few guys get clocked by hard knees like that when they shoot low. In the recent Nick Diaz EliteXC fight his opponent caught him like that. I can understand when guys fake with a strike or something, but a lot of times they just go straight for the low shot. Is it just a timing/reaction thing where the shots are just too fast for most guys to react to with a knee in time? [/ QUOTE ] In the UFC specifically, I believe (but am not certain) that a fighter with a knee down is considered grounded and thus cannot be kneed without risking DQ. While there will be a window between shot and kneed down as evidenced by the linked video, the risk is great and timing is tight. J |

Re: The Ultimate Fighter / UFC thread
Yeah, I'm pretty sure if one knee or hand is touching the ground, knees to the head are illegal.
Knees to the head need to be reinstated though. It rewards fighters for achieving side control and it rewards strikers who are able to stuff takedowns. |

Re: The Ultimate Fighter / UFC thread
There were rumors earlier that they might throw Jon Fitch or Thiago Alves at Hughes. Apparently Fitch is out. Hughes is considering his options.

Damn!
Serra have injured his back and are unable to fight Hughes dec. 29. What a bummer. Now I just hope we don't get to see yet another Liddell vs. Ortiz or something similar in lameness. |
