Chael Sonnen’s No. 1 pick, undefeated English fighter Luke Barnatt versus Jon Jones team fighter Gilbert Smith out of Colorado Springs, USA.
Thanks Bruno.
Bruno: No problem.
That was a horrible match up. Had me shaking my head from the get go.
A head scratching pick from the start. I just don’t understand choosing the shortest dude in the house to fight a guy who can hit you from the next room…with your first pick.
That being said, Lurch is terrible on the ground and not nearly as good as I thought
anyone else think adam cella knocks out uriah hall? cant help but think so the way sonnen runs into the cage looking worried
My critique? I thought you’d never ask! I think those two guys on Team Jones needed to stop complaining about Gilbert’s conditioning and mentality. If you want to be a good teammate, then support your guy that’s fighting. Sitting there and bitching about how you’re worried about your career because some other guy’s not prepared is weak(and if that scenario was scripted,oh well). Kudos to Jones for standing by his guy.
PS Thanks Bruno for posting
@gregory86
I thought that myself, but on closer inspection you notice the team jones guys frown etc and its a team jones guy watching the guy getting loaded into the ambulance, roll on next Tuesday…..
i think it was Dominick Cruz who did that and Jones has copied taking out Faber’s first picks but it worked for that cock.. bad fight Jones has now lost control only himself to blame am not a huge sonnen fan but i cant help but laugh hes a funny fuc*er
Neither fighter were good. One had muscle, the other had reach, neither had skill.
@tear, so says the professional fighter who is clearly more experienced and clued up about MMA. Get a grip and go comment on 4chan or something.
@hobo
Dont mind keyboard warriors like that tard.I’m sure he could flying knee you on the face from his armchair if you keep talking s***.
he lost before he even walked into the octagon, that overhand left should’ve land but he was half stepping and second guessing himself, his, coaches,and his belief in himself.
he gassed in training the coaches didn’t like what they saw in their assessment of gilbert, then he started complaining about his family his support group of family and friends, when you’re in the ufc it is because you want to become champion my question is where was this guy’s heart before he got into the ring, and what if down the road he got the fight he didnt want when and if he would’ve landed a main card event against someone who had the belt who was tall and lanky ?
a fighter neds to prepare himself against any size and types of fighters who fight in his weight class..
Jones signing up coach TUF was a bad move. He is exposed for the phone dude he is…I dont like Chael but listening to him talk around Jones, he makes him sound like a child.
ps. Uriah Hall winner by murder!!
Jones should have tried a little harder on making a pick. Jones makes his living by being the taller, longer guy that if not stronger, can use his reach to an extreme advantage. Bad pick.
i dont see how anyone thinks he gassed. jones was wrong about that. the guy was still throwing bombs and getting out from bottom. he shouldnt have shot at the end because he had the guy hurt and scared with those epunches
If Gilbert stuck to punching instead of those lame wrestling attempts he could have won.
Also my friend used to teach Uriah Hall when he first started martial arts so go Uriah! lol
Gilbert was definitely winning the stand-up. How is everyone liking the format of this season? Personally I don’t like it so far…I could do without the frequent awkward interviews.
The bald guy from Bones team is a blatant whiner, he made it into the house by a hair after a terrible fight, and now all of a sudden he is acting macho, aggressive and cocky in the house.
He will get destroy next.
@Cigronne AGREED! I want to destroy him myself
Neither of those guys were truly impressive,
Looks to me like a dark skinned dude on the gurney,
Bubba’s a douche,
The other douche’s eyebrows are creepy.
