sergei gets all my respect...READ

I just rewatched the fight with overeem and sergeis shoulder popped on the way down DURING THE 1ST TAKEDOWN!! So he took all that beating on top of his already trashed shoulder. Some guys deserve respect in losing too.

people just dont realise exactly how much of percentage of a fight depends on pure unpredictable accident. these pen and paper warriors have already made their official rankings this fighter is better than him because he beat him. idiots

Victory is a hard thing to dispute.

Are you saying he should have tapped as soon as his shoulder went?

I have to completely agree with you. I knew something was off when sergei was that inactive on the ground, he couldn't use one arm!

I hope they fight again.

it seems you have found a way to beat probability. and thus controlling 100% of the events during a fight. retards like you dont realise that fights are not a videogame where the person with the lowest bar loses. many factors contribute to the disabling of an opponent some of which are totally unpredictable and are attributed to the chaos coeficient. thats why a fighter knows that a random amount of credit for his "victory" depends on pure luck (or god or whatever you want to call it)

He lost pure and simple. I have not "found a way to beat probability" and that isn't at all relevant nor was it my point. Any underdog that wins apparently discovers a way to 'beat probability' which is why sporting events are actually conducted and not played out on paper. Yes there are many factors that determine the outcome of a fight but a loss is a loss regardless of whether an injury is involved and that is my point. The chaos coefficient as you call it is something a fighter must deal with if he decides to fight for a living. I actually picked Segei to win and lost money because of it. Also, before you call someone a retard you should run a spell check or figure out how to spell 'coefficient'.

Sergeri showed that he is a man.
gives a beating like a man.
he took a beating like a man.

the next match, he is gonna be even scarier.

The Darkforce....
the untapped siberian training....
he is gonna do some serious owning.
