 @ Forest.

 

[shogun]

at least forrest is keeping it real.  anything can happen in mma though.  maybe he can pull off another upset like when he beat shogun & rampage.
his fight against anderson was the most embarrassing, lopsided butt whooping i've ever seen.

anderson dodging his punches like he was in the matrix, then knocking him down with jabs.

No they're illegal. It's up to the ref though and that was a really ###$!% ref. After the stand up it should've been restarted with Lashley in top mount like when he got stood up for his eye checked.

At the same time, Lashley is horrible. He gassed and showed no improvement since he first started MMA. He got screwed, but he needs to find a new way to make money. His wrestling background is pretty weak, and it was at 167 pounds

Here's a WHOLE article on this exact ref. Worst in the biz today, and it's not even close. There's even some boxing examples for you Gunna, you might remember some.

 

[gunna get it]

WOWWWW at that Left Hook at the Bell !!!

 

[jus3]

Lights OUT

EDIT - Homie almost $@!%*# himself over with that illegal knee.

 

[gunna get it]

Holy $%@$ another Monster Left Hook.... Nunes was askin for the stoppage and caught him with Bad illegal Knee

I cant front Nunes got HANDS!

these Refs are Horrible!

 

[shogun]

i like watching noons hit people.  his fight against yves edwards was 

.
strikeforce needs to get rid of mauro and gus johnson.  they are horrible to listen to.  they need to use the pat miletich & stephen quadros combo.

 

[mayhemmonkey000]

Where in the hell does Strikeforce get these refs?

Absolutely horrible.

Dude just called out Floyd

SF doesn't hire the refs. It's the Texas state athletic commission (http://www.license.state.tx.us/sports/sports.htmTexas Combative Sports Program)

SF should picked Vegas for once so they can use the god refs such as Herb Dean, Mario, etc.

Poor ref, it doesn't look like he'll secure that gig especially with Shamrock and Mauro constantly taking shots at the officiating (rightfully so though). This Jacare/Kennedy fight has been a good close fight.
