Question

Something very very fishy about that fight Jimblow tonight. The guy has been whining for weeks about the UFC rebook deal and how he needs $. Then he travels to Brazil and curiously seems to not even attempt to win as a -300 favorite. One has to wonder if someone in that lowlife country got to him about making more to throw this fight as his opponent was &#x2B;250.   Jimmo curiously never threw more than 1 punch at a time and never attempted a takedown. And seemed willing to lay his own back against cage with no effort to escape the position. Then in Rd2 he seemed to be trying to make his way out of the fight by "vomiting" from a groin kick. Yeah like that would happen ?  I think he caught wind that the fight needed to be past 2:30 of rd2 for it to count as a loss so he needed to continue....to not attempt to win in any way shape or form. Something really really stunk about that fight. I&#x27;ve never seen a more curious fight with a more curious lack of effort in all my years watching this sport.

He only has 2 takedowns in his 6 UFC fights going into his fight tonight. Why would he start taking down tonight against a BJJ black belt? He also flew from Canada to Brazil, not an easy road trip. He landed 35 strikes tonight. That ranks 3rd highest of his 7 fights. He was 3-3 in the UFC going into the fight, not sure why he&#x27;s -300 as a Canadian in Brazil. As far as the ball kick, who knows. Don&#x27;t even remember the last time I saw a guy take 5 minutes and decide to continue.

I was thinking the same thing.. And he didn&#x27;t even stand up for the decision

I watch every fight on every UFC card. All of them. I&#x27;ve never seen a less spirited performance or complete lack of effort ever. Especiallyfor a guy on tech fringe of being cut. Combine that with the fake vomiting (and people ring side said there was no vomit in the bucket) and you have a peculiar situation.  You&#x27;d have to be blind not to see it.

I agree...Jimmo literally didn&#x27;t look like he wanted to even be there...during the 3rd round I literally yelled at the TV because I was so pissed I laid any amount of money on him...Barroso wasn&#x27;t even throwing a strike for the last 10 minutes either and Jimmo STILL refused to throw something or engage....the last 10 seconds of the fight they were clinching against the fence and Jimmo just let go like the fight was over....please cut him

jimmo got kicked pretty hard in the balls

kj noons had no explanation for what happened

after 2:30 seconds of being in a brazilian octagon he essentially told olviera hey, heres my neck, put your arm around it and ill roll over and tap out

yeah I bet on Jimmo and Noons - was pissed about both. After watching a few of his fights, I have come to the conclusion that he may just be a pu$$y. He quit for no good reason against Manuwa other than he was getting his a$$ kicked. Then he goes around doing that stupid robot dance looking like an idiot. Then he thinks he's Jon Jones or something and can criticize the companies uniform deal when his fights are boring as hell. I would have no problem at all if Dana just decided to cut this fool, although I would love the chance to bet AGAINST him next time. As far as throwing the fight, probably not. He was just doing nothing and looking at the clock the whole fight, but not sure something fishy was going on. He did get jacked in the nuts pretty hard.

KJ on the other hand I have always been a fan of - even if he lacks all technique other than banging. My first mistake was not realizing that Brazilian opponent was twice his size. Can't call a rigged fight a mistake, but that was one of the most suspicious fights I've ever seen. Seems like he just flat gave up his neck. Has anyone ever seen KJ finished before? Of course I bet the "not Oliviera inside distance" and took a beating on that too.

I agree with you guys on jimmo. He looked so lethargic out there. He look like he didn&#x27;t give a sh&#xED;t whether he won or lost even befire the ballzack shot.
