    Ahhhhhhh the perfect way to make myself even later for work. NICE . Double Knockout Ref is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen. . Can anyone explain the Rampage one? He brought a yellow card of his own just to punk the ref, and he's pretending the ref poked him in the eye? What's goin on here?

    Rampage is saying his breath stinks. What's the one with the Japanese guy throwing in the towel. What fight is that?

    I need the one with Dan Hardy explained. The ref just basically jumped in and took the guy down. WTF?

    Also, what is so special about the one with Heath Herring and Brock Lesnar? The one with the towel is just funny bc the guy is tapping, the ref runs over to see, and then runs back out simply to catch the towel never stopping the fight at all. I believe that was a GIF of a ref being completely UNawesome.

    @ MediocreThreat: I think that's Goodridge/Yatsu 2 @ PRIDE 16. @ Fletch: Miragliotta intercepted Gono because the round ended. Miragliotta poked Herring in the eye. I had like four more Miragliotta gifs I could have used, but I didn't want to make this all about Big Dan.

    Whats even better about the double KO one is, that referee is actually Mr International himself: Shonie Carter guest refereeing that fight.

    LOL, ok it all makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up Ben. I don't know, you could have just added another page of big Dan, I wouldn't have complained.

    ^Damnit Bacon, I was about to say that. And how is Vila not in the UFC flyweight tourny? I know he lost in the Bellator tourny, anybody know if he's still under contract with them?

    Every time I see that Cecil Peoples gif, I just think of how long he must have spent in front of a full length mirror figuring that move out.

    Yoshiaki Yatsu may have been the worst fighter ever to step in the cage/ring. But fuck could that guy take some damage. The second fight with Goodridge I'm sure he told his corner to throw the fucking towel as fast and hard as possible so he didn't end up with more brain damage caused by their first fight. If you've never seen it google 'Goodridge Yatsu' right now. Maybe the most damage anyone's ever taken in an mma fight (without breaking a limb).

    Hahaha, I don't remember half of these happening. The ref divebomb/tackle in the first one is great. And Cecil, man, wtf??

    What fight is the very first one?

    Time expired in the Dan Hardy Gif. So the ref had to stop the flying knee attempt. might have put out Hardy's lights too.

    Hahaha, Cecil Peoples is so fucking contrived.
  17. RearNakedSpoon Says:

    Fri, 01/27/12 - 09:10


    HAHAHA, dunno why I never expected to see Cecil doing whatever the fuck that is.

    I'm not 100% sure but I think the first gif is Pablo Garza hammerfucking Fredson Paixao.

    @ Fletch Hardy was fighting Gono. Right before the end of the fight Gono went to throw a flying knee and Big Dan stepped in to stop it and ended up shoving him on his ass because Gono landed weird

    I always thought it was funny when Alessio used the ref's shirt to wipe the blood from his face ... but that's just me.

    @Fletch the V Stretch - The ref poked Heath Herring in the eye in that one. Dan Miragliotta is an idiot.

    Would love to see a gif of big Dan subduing the cage invader... And for the love of pete, what the heck is Peoples doing?

    Garza was very close to killing that poor dude. Thank god for the Maz and his shoulder tackle.

    Is that really Mazagati laid out for the save in that first one? Way to sacrifice yourself dude! I think he should bring back the 70s pornstar mustache he used to rock. It was his best feature as a ref.

    I always liked seeing Miragliotta manhandling Paul Daley after his Koscheck suckerpunch.
