Wow, what a stacked WEC card for FFL!

MJB could be a huge winner here with 3 of his fighters on this card alone.

[mls]

Jung is a dirty, dirty cheater

[Gomi]

Jung is a dirty, dirty cheater

He was doing a pirouette, and his fist slipped.

Man, my FFL team sucks this year, I haven't been bothering with drafts, so that may be the reason why. I am literally in last place.

[Brad.Taschuk]

Things are going to be interesting. I hope Aoki wins, so e doesn't get good points from Melendez to get him back in the race (and because Japanese MMA needs to be repped). I'm not too concerned with MJB's guys. Pettis would've been a better pick than Karalexis (I think he takes that fight easily), Henderson won't get a stoppage if he wins, and Garcia might look like trash again.

The Melendez/Jorgensen combo that e-thug has is worrisome though...

[MKZ]

Time to pick up some more points. GO ON COWBOY !!!

Jorgensen has been an absolute awesome pick-up, 2nd fight im getting out of him here and I like his chances for revenge.

Melendez will get me a descent chunk of points with it being a title fight, just really hope he gets the KO against Aoki on more than one level (FFL, Aoki hatred and the fact I dont want Aoki being talked about as #1 LW).

[MJB23]

I scored a big 40 points this event and I think I should move into 3rd place now.

[Meshuggeth]

Fucking judges.

What were you saying Brad?

Henderson got an easy 1st round submission.

Garcia looked great and got me points.

Karalexis was the only one I shouldn't have picked but I've always liked him so that's why I went with him over Pettis. He still got me 5 points though.

Oh and Visher looked amazing out there tonight. Nice job on picking him!

[Meshuggeth]

Garcia looked like shit (nothing new).

He got haped.

[MJB23]

Garcia looked like shit (nothing new).

He got haped.

Doesn't matter if you think he looked like shit or 'got haped' because the judges said he won and that's all that matters.

I made some great picks in the draft that got me some points so I can't complain especially since you guys can't say the same.

[Meshuggeth]

So horrible judging doesnt matter in MMA?

[MJB23]

I didn't say that. If I recall correctly I'm the one that actually took the initiative to write an article and send it to multiple Athletic Commissions to try to get something done about the judging in MMA, instead of just being another person on the internet bitching about how MMA scoring/judging sucks.

As for what I said in my above post it was referring to the FFL and me getting points and you not and had nothing to do with if it was a good decision or not on the judges part.

[e-thug]

Event updated and wow its real tight at the top with just 10 points separating the top 4!
