Kalib was outclassed in that fight and was either going to sacrfice his pumpkin to a way better striker or try to follow a game plan that he was completely unable to follow. Nate imposed his own game plan and negated everything Kalib through at him. I dont think Kalib will ever be able to beat Nate Quarry, he is not a top tier fighter.

Well, that answers a lot of questions. Apparently there were some fabrications after the fight, I hate misinformation it leads to sorts of wild bashing. Kalib is a good fighter, minus that last performance and he would still be a contender. I agree with the guys from Japan, it is the performance that counts and not the outcome. A stronger performance win or lose would have negated all of this.

Either way you have succeded in making sure I will be watching your next fight. I am hoping you will regain form and kick some ass.

i think people made this into a big deal, maybe cuz the event sucked as a whole.

I enjoyed the fight, overall.
I'll buy it on dvd when it comes out.

I think a lot of the backlash is that we only knew what we saw.
We did not like what we saw.

I seriously doubt that everyone who talked bad about him then are being all nicey nice now.

No kidding.
There are likely people that avoided the hate threads that appeared in this one.
That waited for this one.

There will be others that were frustrated and vented.
Reason and calm has returned.

Bisping still pops his head in.
And Buentello.

First off, I respect any person that will step into a cage and put it on the line etc... 99% of the people on this board have no idea what that is like or even train for that matter. But what I will say is this, you are a pro fighter and I will compare you to other pro fighters... You need heart pure and simple. Some fighters have it some dont. The ones that do can over come adversity and also over come a better fighter with even more skill. You lacked heart in that fight.. You had a bad fight plain and simple.

When you are in a fight time flys and what seems like to the watchers a long time seems like a few minutes when you are actuly in the fight. I can understand that you hurt your foot and had to adjust your game plan etc... To the average watcher it seemed like you were running for ever.... You should have thrown in the towell... Oh well, what's done is done... best of luck to you in your next fight.

this means that if you where on his pants would let yourself get KTFO ?
please think what are you saying before, and dont be such a greed mtfck

[M dot]

you will never get out from under this black cloud of shame... everyone keeps saying it took balls to post a msg on this forum but you are only trying to control the damage you have knowingly done to your career. maybe you can find a fight against gabe rudiger...

[boombalonga]

while the thread title is a little misleading (it did get me to click on it though so mission accomplished), and no threads about you are allowed anymore, i appreciate you coming here to set it straight. good luck with whatever you do in the future.

Everyone has their bad days. Still a fan and will continue to be. Good luck where ever your career takes you.
