richard: does anyone else thing the sub of the night should of went to paulo? richard: i did better than i thought i did for this fight.but i must say i am pertty excited to see serra fight again.
Jason: Nah I understand that. I was talking more about the program they use to get the points to everyone. There isnt someone who manually puts it...
bvrasp: Jason, you mean the amount of points you get when you make predictions for an event? You get 5 points for picking the winner of the fight... Jason: Does anyone know exactly how mmaplayground gets the scores? Do they use a program or what? There are many MMA games like mmaplayground but...
Michael Hatamoto: The remaining holdout states will prove to be difficult, but it appears progress is being made … and that will continue in...
Amir: Why is it that everytime I actually get around to playing the fantasy playground, the results never get posted? and when I don’t play,... Michael Hatamoto: Thought the main card was fairly exciting, but the undercard was lame. Still leaps and bounds ahead of Strikeforce cards, as SF... Michael Hatamoto: I had a feeling Chael would be able to beat Nate last night. I know Nate is a monster, but there aren’t too many people... Jason: I always want a Gracie to win but they are to one sided. As far as I am concerned they no longer have a place in the UFC.
So whos watching Strikeforce at the playboy mansion 2 tonight?
Not a great card, considering Bobby Southworth whos the strikeforce LHW champ was facing Babalu. Then Bobby had to pull out because of a leg injury so they brought in Anthony Ruiz. THEN Babalu pulled out for a leg injury too, so they got Trevor Prangley. So we end up with Anthony Ruiz vs Trevor Prangley, probably a better fight than Bobby vs Babalu anyways hehe.
Riggs vs Misaki could be a great fight, but Riggs is just so hit and miss as a fighter, hes reminding me of Yves Edwards these days. He either beats someone hes not supposed to beat, or loses to someone he shouldnt lose to. Still its a good matchup and its prectically carring this fightcard as sad as that is..
Other than that, theres a few cameo appearances by fighters who completely outmatch their opponents.
Josh Thompson
Mitsuhiro Ishida
Terry Martin
Its a bit disappointing considering Strikeforce put on some GREAT cards last year! but its much better than Cagerage which is also on tonight hehe..
So overall Strikeforce playboy 2 was a decent night of fights. No surprises, but a little controversy with the stoppage in the Riggs vs Misaki fight. I personally thought it was a bad stoppage because Riggs was blocking the punches, but there are those who would disagree with me.
Guys am i the only one who watched this event or what? lol. Well check it out and judge for yourself if it was a good stoppage.
