commentsVery very good...although we're probably the only two people who got it
In closing, Tate pulled this one, and even managed to not get bumrushed on the feet either. Well played girl.
Oh, and nice booty. keep working it, girl.
:)
But since I complain so much I decided that I wasn't gonna nitpick this time.
(I am glad that someone mentioned it though)
Apparently take downs that are followed by immediate sweeps and doing zero with standup are worth a bunch of points.
Thanks, fellas. My momma always said, "life is like a box of cho--" wait, no, i meant "the squeaky wheel gets the grease".
BTW, despite a rumor i read here, free preview Showtime was not showing on my Dish Network.
Tate looked a little uncomfortable with his decrepit zombie claws latched onto her arm for the whole interview.
Miesha Tate looked pretty good from a fight perspective. She needs to steer clear of Cyborg though...as does every other female fighter...and most male fighters.
Humphrey looked...meh. Mousassi would put a hurtin' on him.
And did anyone hear the "he's not 'a' donis, he's 'the' donis." comment again?? He's got to be saying it for the laugh-factor now...but it's just irritating. Pat did pretty well. I think they pumped a few pints of blood plasma into Quadros...he didn't look nearly as dead as the last CBS show. He still looks past his expiration date, but not dead. I think he even blinked a few times.
All in all, it wasn't bad for a Challenger card, but nothing special.
George Bush III? Seriously?
Something tells me all the gloom and doom Dana White forecasts for Strikeforce might be for real. I wonder if the Vs. show pulled more eyeballs?
how is this possible...
