This is why you tap out!

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..

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
