Interesting. Sounds like it's worth giving it a try.

Would have been better if the younger Lima was still on the card so he could put Martin away just like his brother did.

California has been dabbling in that on some amateur shows I've heard.

Jimmo wins again...but how do you go 5 rounds with Sokoudjou?...or to put it another way, how did Sokoudjou go 5 rounds? I figured he would have KO punched himself from being so gassed by round 4...knowing Sok..has his cardio got better or something or is Jimmo not interested in FINISHING FIGHTS AT TWO OH FIIIVE?

Yeah I'm shocked Jimmo didn't put him away. Read it was a pretty shitty fight though

I read Soko got jobbed in an awful decision. MFC is the most unwatchable promotion in MMA history.

I wouldn't call it a total robbery. Neither guy did jack shit in rounds 1, 4, and 5 for the most part. A whole lot of both guys standing across from one another at 30 second intervals with one punch or one kick thrown in that interval. Plus the half point system was being used last night in MFC so that had alot to do with it. Without that the fight would have been a majority Draw. Jimmo didn't push the pace at all to wear Sokodjo out, for the most part he really just let Soko do whatever her wanted whether it be stand around catching his breath or clinching with him against the ropes/corner and score points.
