Efrain did good don't say he's boring. Nice takedowns from him and he hit him a lot. If Phillipe didn't know that much BJJ he probably gotten knocked out in the ground. If they have a rematch. He should stay in his feet and not be in the bottom in the ground.
All efrain did was takedowns.... and he just stalled the whole round. hes a boring ass fighter and i dont know anyone who would pay 100 dollars to see two guys hugging on the ground.
I wanted Nover to win, but he didn't. Escudero won cuz he fought with his strength, which is wrestling. MMA is as much a chess match in the Octagon when they fight, so that's why they prepare for evry scenario. It's ignorant and quite foolish for idiots to make comments about fighters who you can visibly see have a great deal of respect for one another! The truth is Nover will need to work on his wrestling if he wants to get to the elite level. I think they both are classy fighters!
agreed.. i get tired of hearin people bitch about efrain "laying and praying" when actually what he is doing is controlling and winning the fight... smart tactics if u ask me... i would love to see him and junie in a re-match... junie finally looked like tha fighter he claimed to be in the finale
It goes to show that to be in MMA you must learn every style, what efrain did is use his strenght which is wrestling to counter nover. I wanted nover to win also but you cant take away anything from efrain getting the win.
nover is a legit black belt in bjj and a great boxer escudero used his wrestling to get into a position to lay on nover where he was guaranteed to beat him, that fat fuck probably had almost 10 pounds on him by fight time
''all he did the last 4 mins was hang phillipe down so he wud win'' its called top control retard and he was landing some decent shots it was a good win for afrain he dominated.
escudero is a boring ass wrestler... it's so unfortunate that nover didn't win but he has Dana's attention already so he's guaranteed to get more fights in the UFC. Nover is a cerebral fighter and i'm sure he's gonna improve and be a potential champion in the future.
LOL Phillipe got OWNED! I thought he was going to WHOOP Elfrain's ass, but no, i didn't happen. I also thought Vinny was going to win bader, but no.... :( Anyway disapointing. The only thing that was good was when Junie Browning showed off his skills. Phillipe's weakness: WRESTLING! Yep, he's aggresive striking will leave him open to a double leg takedown. He's been winning cause his opponents were trying to stand with him. WRESTLING IS GAY.
haha all he can do is take him down and hug phillipe.. did u watch the last round.. all he did was take him down and hug him cus he got the first 2 round.. i say that hes a pussy..atleast finish with a stand up fight..
either way he got tha six fig contract and won tha fight... even if u say efrain didnt do much he still did more than phillipe so ur argument is invalid
I'm half filippino by family descendance but was born and raised in Canada.. a thai boxer for 7 years (but only been in brazilian jiu jitsu for a couple months) I just learned about Nover on TUF 8 and he's my new favourite MMA fighter man mad respect to this guy... i predict a Nover vs Efren finale
stackchipz. this "bradpinoy" is just a pure stupid. ryt bro? hahaha! win or lose, gold or shit, if your a pinoy.. be in a right lane, support filipinos.
if your a filipino then support pinoy's! all the way brad!! we don't live in the past so pop up in reality boi.. your saying your a filipino bradpinoy? you should look in a mirror, maybe your a monkey. pinoy pride brad.
Stupidity is hearing idiots on Solar Sports here in the RP,claiming that PacMan is better than Mayweather Jr, or that He is the Pride or Hero of the Filipino people. Please!!! Both of my Lolo's who died in WWII against the Japanese are two of the REAL Filipino heroes. Plus, I don't respect a guy who can climb in the ring, do the sign of the cross (as if that makes him a Christian), but outside the ring has a child out of wed-lock. What a hypocrite! De La Hoya in 5 rounds!
Bradpinoy you're wack!!!..sell out motherf!@!#@#er...You don't respect a guy who fights in a ring to represent his country like your grandfather who fight to represent the same country because of a child out of wed lock? so therefore you respect a guy who in his spare time dresses like a girl and cheat on his wife? damn you're one hypocrite mother!@2#@!!
Please don't mention Pacquiao with Nover. One, Nover would whip his ass in a real fight, and two, Pacman is way over-rated! I live in the Philippines and I find it comical that some ignorant Filipino boxing enthusiast's really think Manny is that Good. He's not in the same league w/ Mayweather Jr. Period! He's gonna get his flat nose pounded against De La Hoya,& he lost to Barerro in their 2nd fight. Nover is a great, up and coming talent. He is a Fil-Am who is proud to be pinoy (just like me).
Brad, I respect your opinion, but I must rebut here. Sure Pac was the hungrier younger fighter, but he still beat good competition. And he ko'd or at least knocked em down. It's like saying OLDH beat an old Julio Cesar 2x, old MachoCamacho, stole the title from Sturm, stole the fight from Sweet Pea, lost his good fights against Tito, Mosely, Hopkins. Mayorga, Gatti and Vargas were B+ at best.
Btw Barrera was in survival mode the whole second fight and didn't want to risk it with Manny. Yes it was boring. But I agree Nover is a hot looking prospect and could be someone very special.
bradpinoy....you sound like a hater. you sure you're Pinoy? And you're saying Pacquiao lost to Barrera on their second fight??? You're either a hater, haven't seen the fight, or just plain stupid. Watch the fight again. And don't say you are a proud Pinoy. You sound like a hater. I support Pacquiao all the way! I support all Pinoy fighters (MMA and Boxers)!
Keep on fighting "Champ", we are your filipino fans. We are proud of you. Phillipe fights like a maniac but he has a heart of gold that can heal people.
Sup' it's the 5'9", 215lb., rock solid phenomenon, D Square... I fight Like My Mama Got Raped Right In Front Of My Eyes... My man Phillipe is methodically and systematically untouchable in any "targeted" discipline, Break the arm of at the elbow baby, keep doing your thing CHAMP...
