i dont like akiyama, when he finally fights a good all round fighter he will get knocked the fuck out, every1 he has fought so far either has no ground game or no stand up

For what it’s worth Akiyama did way 70 pounds less and was able to take him down pretty skillfully.

amazing how well akiyama held up despite le banner’s huge size and height and reach advantage.

I wonder if the UFC will let him fight in the Gi?

Not impressed by LeBanner.
Have they ever heard of weight classes?
This is exactly why the UFC kicks everyones asses.
Whats their next fight?….Schilt VS Gomi?

The weight difference did play a huge factor. The mask 2 on his gi what the hell was that

thats terrible letting people fight with that much size difference some one some days going to get hurt bad

No gi’s will or should ever be allowed in ufc. IMO it gives an unfair advantage when someone has been training to choke someone with their shirt their whole life. Only in Japan…

weight classes is a way to make more money (business decision). I liked this fight it reminded me of the good old days when the UFC had no weight classes and no rules.

Gi’s are not allowed under the New Jersey State Athletic Commission’s Uniform Rules of Mixed Martial Arts.

gi in mma makes no sense. if u let judo/bjj guys wear a gi in mma then u gotta let a street fighter wear boots n a leather jacket to
