I just noticed rashad doing the famous gsp nipple tweak. Is their (sorry rush, i had no idea whether to use their, there or they're on that one ) any reason fighters do it?

Oh no! Rashad just did the nipple pinch! It must be a new strategy from Greg Jackson's.

LMAO - forgiven as long as you apologize to me each time. lol

I tried to look it up. The best I could find is that in women, certain hormones are secreted when nipples are pinched or sucked. Maybe it is similar for men.

It might be just me... But nipple pinching does not belong in mma.

I don't see Rashad winning this fight with his game plan so far.

Now I see that fight though does anyone think Franklin can beat Henderson? That really proves to me that Hendo would beat him decisively in stand up and in brutal GnP perhaps I'm wrong but Hendo is better pretty much everywhere. (which is saying something because Rich is incredibly talented.)




Henderson has not got better stand up that rich. Hes got a more powerful right hand for sure, but thats about it. Rich has better technique, better kicks, and hes better at striking from the clinch imo, although obviously if they where to end up clinched dan would have an advantage with his wrestling.

I mean, i really cant see where your coming from with that statment. Its like, now ive watched rich put in a dominant performance over a stronger wrestler, i think hendo would beat him. What could he of done to change your mind



Hamill has an amazing jar and so does Henderson who probably has a better one. If he knocked out Hamill I would have changed my mind. Franklin has crisper strikes but if he fought like he did tonight against Henderson he would get knocked out quite quick imho. He has power but he leaves himself open when he attacks which would be bad in a Hendo fight.

Then we see when Rich can't control the clinch he's in very big trouble and in now way would he control the clinch against Hendo.
