I think Dong Hyun Kim too but I forget if he really used his judo as of late (he seems to be more of a wrestler now). But that kid did great, he needs to get promoted to brown belt after that performance absolute domination of a veteran BJJ black belt. Shame too. You think about how many times Judo would help in a clinch or against the cage with underhooks and it's kind of weird not seeing it more. The main person right now that I can think of with real name behind her is Ronda Rousey, but nobody knows about her really since she's a woman and in StrikeForce. The chick is a bronze medalist in the 2008 Olympics and is fucking people up left and right with armbar after armbar, and you just don't hear much about it. I hope Karo comes back in one form or another. Addiction is a hell of a thing though. | ||

If that's a referral to them being small Gustafsson is 6'5. On December 31 2011 12:49 MaZza[KIS] wrote: Naz what's your record like? Are you winning more bets then you are losing? 4/4 today and at a profit over ~500 bets lifetime. Not a huge profit (although most here would consider it a lot) but still learning more about successful betting with every event. | ||

You figure with an Olympic Gold Medalist in Judo competing in MMA he'd be doing some great throws and trips, but as I said I haven't seen much of his recent work. He is fighting Fedor later though who while not as an accomplished Judoka his Sambo background should make it a very interesting clinch grappling situation. I feel bad for Karo, he had the skills but yea that drug addiction messed his career up good. | ||

The only shit that happened was backhead hits. He had all of 2 hits on his side, while defended. While defended his head never rocked. Yay ref. | ||

 I don't know why, but I am actually excited for this fight >.> Have the feeling Fitch wants another shot at the title now GSP is out.Edit: Can anyone see the UFC giving Shogun Rua next for Gustaffson? | ||
