Gygax.bot is obviously in need of repair, he bet big on the loser which baited me in :mad:

A check for 400k plus emotional damages will do fine.

TY

Yeah, but look at the predictions I personally gave you. That should make up for the other staff member :p

lol yeah.

I think Gegard Mousasi has a good chance of upsetting Kang.

What on earth was Kang thinking?
That looks like such a rookie mistake.
Boy, things have really gone downhill for him since that loss in the GP final.

Can they soccer kick in Dream? Thats what he should of done. Ya it does look like he ask for it. It look like he got caught up in the heat of the moment. I'm sure he learns from it.:)

Just watched it...Aoki was ready this time and earned the W. Yeah, JZ did look lost at times. Near the end of round one, why didn't JZ just kick Aoki legs when Aoki was on the ground. It's almost as if JZ was content to get kicked in the face over and over. :confused:

I lost a lot of points. At least the Jazz will pull through for me tonight :D

Rumbin	Posted 10:17 am, 04/29/2008
JZ looked lost trying to figure out Aoki's rubber guard, and almost tapped to the omoplata. Great fun, I cant stand Aoki but that was a CLINIC on the ground. Jacare is absolutely unreal and if he gets you on the ground he is going to win. Denis Kang basically put himself in a triangle. Fun show not as good as the first. Cant want for 2 weeks

Gooner	Posted 9:13 am, 04/29/2008
Yeah, that was definitely a win for Aoki. That must have been a frustrating fight for JZ. He started off great, I thought it might even get stopped after he kicked Aoki in the face and started punching him in the first. But Aoki had him in a couple of really bad spots. He had his back for the majority of the first, and that last omaplata looked real close.

Mulla	Posted 8:20 am, 04/29/2008
Man I cant believe JZ lost :( Glad my boy Galesic got the win tho!

It was a ****dog post so I lean more towards someone who lacks understanding ;)

I read a different one that talked about lots of stalling on Aoki's side. Proally written by someone who dosent get the ground game. Good find, thanks! :)

Either that or a JZ fan. I was pulling for JZ because of the b.s. stoppage last time. I'm going to watch it Saturday night to see what really happened.

From what I read the Aoki UD sounds like typical Japanese always win if it goes to the judges.

I read this...Five Ounces of Pain | DREAM.2 Results

1. JZ Calvancante vs Shinya Aoki

Round 1: Aoki immediately hops on him and pulls guard standing but JZ remains up and brings him back to his feet in the corner. They fall in the corner with Aoki briefly grabbing his back but JZ gets top position and they�re restarted in the center. Aoki is working his normal high active guard as JZ stands in it and lands a couple of punches. Aoki grabs a leg and falls to his back but JZ remains composed despite the leglock danger and peppers the crap out of Aoki�s face before they get back on their feet and into the corner. Aoki again looks for a takedown and wants zero distance. Shinya gets his back standing and locks in the hooks with his back against the post. He�s looking for a RNC but JZ defends, still standing in the corner. Aoki looks to be putting everything into it but he doesn�t have it as JZ continues with professional defense. Aoki, still with his back in the corner, peppers shots before looking for another RNC. We�ve spent about 3 minutes in this position with Aoki peppering shots and looking for a choke. Finally JZ crumples down to the ground, still with Aoki on his back against the corner looking to choke. Aoki locks in a full body triangle with two minutes left as the referee again restarts them in the center. Aoki wanted this to be complete jiu-jitsu and he�s having his way. JZ finally fights his way out and stands over the grounded Aoki looking for his spot. JZ just wants to unload but Aoki�s defense is incredible on the ground. Multiple upkicks by Aoki but JZ isn�t requesting he stand as the round comes to an end. I score this round 10-9 for Shinya Aoki.

Round 2: Aoki again pulls guard and if he continues to control JZ like this it should be a lopsided decision. Aoki looks to grab an omoplata but JZ pulls out and this time is wise enough to make him stand. GREAT flying guard pull by Aoki as he�s telling JZ he has no chance at keeping this standing. Aoki working rubber guard looking for another omoplata but JZ is again able to pull out and look to land before the ref stands Aoki back up. Two minutes remain in the round and this time JZ just tosses Aoki off as he dives in. Aoki butt scoots toward him and JZ plays by diving in with a punch and getting into his guard. Aoki�s third omoplata does the job and puts JZ in a horrible position ready to tap as Aoki lands punches to the back of the head with no warning. Aoki with a full armbar but JZ flips out of it!! JZ, now visibly upset, begins trying to tee off on Aoki�s face but does little damage. I score this round 10-9 for Shinya Aoki and 20-18 overall.

WINNER: Shinya Aoki, unanimous decision
