Here's the promo video for Friday's Yamma Pit Fighting PPV, which is the brainchild of Bob Meyrowitz, one of the original founders of the UFC. Their gimmick is the return of the 1 night tournament, and their 'unique' fighting surface, the Yamma Pit. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_kOgMY4YiGU&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_kOgMY4YiGU&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> To me, this concept is doomed to fail. First, it's just begging for an ankle injury, and I'll be shocked if somebody doesn't get one. Second, because of the elevated sides, anytime the action goes to the ground, it's gonna be tough for the live crowd to see anything. Look for a ton of booing anytime the fight goes to the ground, and a lot of unhappy ticket buyers. And finally, can Butterbean get any fatter? TFK
I caught some of this on Sopcast. It was terrible. And that's being nice. Here's Butterbean's 'fight'. I think it's time for the Bean to give up his MMA dream and go back to fighting 4 Rounders. He's gonna get hurt bad if he doesn't. <div><object width="420" height="257"><param name="movie" value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/x51trb&v3=1&related=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/x51trb&v3=1&related=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="257" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object><br /><b><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x51trb_eric-butterbean-vs-patrick-smith_sport">Eric Butterbean vs Patrick Smith</a></b><br /><i>Uploaded by <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/Princenino">Princenino</a></i></div> TFK
That shit was hilarious! Bean just fell down on his own like a clumsy oaf. He looked like a turtle on his back the rest of the fight.:laughing:
Bean looked like a turtle stuck on it's back.. Hell, he's over 40 and not getting any slimmer. He needs to retire from all combat sports.
You bash other promotions but when the UFC puts on shitty cards(which has been often lately) you give it a pass If it ain't UFC then its shit to you
First off, do you even read my threads? I've been negative about UFC when it deserves it. Second, nothing the UFC has done can compare to how bad Yamma was. Out of shape, past their prime fighters, ridiculous ring, Scott Ferrell as a ring announcer...this was probably the worst MMA PPV in history. And third, if you think I'm only a fan of UFC, you're an idiot. And you don't really pay attention. TFK
Yes I do, which is why I've noticed you come off like your on an agenda.I'm not the only one that's brought this up which is probly why your catching feelings
What is my agenda? That I'm a MMA fan? It seems the only 'agenda' here is coming from the UFC haters, who have to bitch about all things UFC. TFK
That cage is stupid MMA should stick to the UFC octagon and that's it, or a ring like Pride, it's better, makes for more stand-up exciting fights.
