I watched the Dymamite new years eve show from Japan and it was a very good show. It was Dream vs Sengoku and the fights were tied 4 to 4 with the last match being the Dream champ vs the WVR champ. It was Shinya Aoki vs Mizuto Hirota. Aoki is awesome at submissions and just an fyi he has signed with Strikeforce. For those that want to jump ahead, go to about the 2:25 mark.

99.964583% of the time I say NEVER tap. But thas big head alpha tough guy talk. First dont get in a position where you have to tap. Secong know your limit, which is difficult. All sort of emotions, hormones, chemicals are following leading up to and during a fight, so its hard to know whats YOUR limit is. Cause during training its here, but in a fight its there. Be smart about it, plus it falls on the ref as well. Some tough guys need a profession ref to step in and save a fight for serve injury. Terrible ref job.

and i hope that loser gets embarrassed, hes unprofessional after many of his fights. reminds me of money mayweather.

Aoki may be the best submission guy in MMA. He says that he is a hitman for Dream and would have torn the guys arm off if the ref didnt stop the fight. Aoki did apoligize after the fight for giving the guy the straight finger a few times but didnt regret breaking the guys arm one bit.

for a guy that fights under 200lbs, im some what aware of aoki(not a fan of midgets fighting). I just know he is VERY emotional win or lose after his fights. Thats very unprofessional and he addicted to that feeling cause he does it over and over. It shows hes not in control. Either dock his pay until he learns or put him against a fighter that will humble him.

he shouldn't apologize for breaking his arm, its a fight and theres going to be breaks sometime. again it falls on the ref some and fighters with respect for other fighter may tell the ref thats its about to break etc..

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
