As with every major show, Bloody Elbow will be here to bring you live results, play by play and commentary for UFC on Fuel TV. Our live coverage will start with the Facebook prelim stream (roughly 6:20 p.m. ET) through the main card on Fuel (8 p.m. ET) so make sure to make Bloody Elbow your home for this event.

This post will cover live results and thoughts for the Facebook prelims.

The featured bout of the undercard sees Ultimate Fighter winner Jonathan Brookins square off with Vagner Rocha in a featherweight bout. Buddy Roberts will also be in action as he faces Sean Loeffler in middleweight action. Rounding out the undercard is a pair of lightweight bouts that see Anton Kuivanen take on Justin Salas and Tim Means battle Bernardo Magalhaes.

Make sure to come back during the event and share your thoughts as the event goes down.

The Fights are live.

Bernardo Magalhaes vs. Tim Means - Round 1 - Magalhaes misses with a leg kick and he's circling while Means is trying to stalk a bit. Means working the jab and missing the right hand. Magalhaes with a few leg kicks. Magalhaes looks for a takedown and Means drills him with a knee but can't follow up with any punches before Magalhaes starts to circle away. They trade some shots in the clinch with Means getting the better of it. Another knee, right hand combo by Means. Magalhaes hasn't done much but land some leg kicks and miss takedowns. Another big knee by Means and he is really dominating here. Magalhaes with a big overhand right that buzzes Means a little bit. Another knee to the chin by Means and Magalhaes is hurt and falls to the mat. Means tries to follow up with ground and pound and scores before looking for a d'arce choke but Magalhaes sweeps and they're back to standing. Means wrecking Magalhaes to the body with knees in the clinch and now some elbows. Impressive stuff for Means so far. Hard leg kick by Means and a left hand that follows. 10-9 Means easy.

Round 2 - Magalhaes grabs a leg right away but can't get the takedown. Means tags him with another left. Magalhaes is on his bike, not really doing a whole lot but circling. Means with a few punches. Big uppercut by Means when Magalhaes tries to get inside. Left hook gets in for Magalhaes and he tries for the takedown but Means just starts drilling him with elbows. Great body shot by Means and that hurt Magalhaes badly. Magalhaes to the canvas and Means pounds away and then tells him to get up and the round ends. 10-9 Means.

Round 3 - Magalhaes needs to figure out something here and he does land a left. Magalhaes keeps trying for takedowns and can't get it so Means forces him to stand back up. Means drops Magalhaes with another body shot and follows up with strikes and forces Magalhaes to stand up. Means is opening up huge now and following Magalhaes to the ground, pounding him with elbows. Magalhaes gets tagged with another elbow and the rund ends. Means just beat up on Magalhaes for three rounds. That was not a good showing. 10-9 Means.

Official scorecards: 30-27, 30-26 and 30-26. Tim Means wins by unanimous decision.

Anton Kuivanen vs. Justin Salas - Round 1 -Anton trying to get inside and Salwas circling to start it out. A lot of missed strikes early as they try to find a rhythm. Kuivanen with a few high kicks that get blocked and now gets a right hand. Salas' striking is very rudimentary looking early but he wants to get the takedown. Right hook lands for Salas as Anton tries to rush in. Salas finally gets the takedown with over two minutes left. Salas isn't really able to do much damage for 30 seconds before Anton manages to get to his feet after coming close to a sweep. Straight right hand by Anton. Not my favorite round ever. Salas with a takedown to finish the round and that may tip the scales in his favor in a close round. 10-9 Salas.

Round 2 - More of the same early, some leg kicks and body kicks by Kuivanen and Salas pushing him into the cage and not getting the takedown. Hard fight to really type the action from since not a lot of stuff happens even though both guys are moving a lot. Salas unable to get the takedown again. Salas almost trips him down but can't get it and Kuivanen with a body kick. I don't know why, but I find this fight to be impossible to enjoy. 10-9 Salas I guess.

Round 3 - Salas with a big takedown early in this round. Kuivanen almost ended up getting a calf slicer but Salas defended and was able to do some damage with strikes before Anton was able to muscle his way to standing. Low blow by Anton but the ref has them fight on and Salas lands a few elbows. Another big takedown by Salas and he ends up in side control. Anton gets to his feet but too late to do anything about losing the fight. 10-9 Salas.

Official scorecards: 30-27, 30-27, 29-27. Justin Salas wins by unanimous decision.

Sean Loeffler injured his ankle warming up for his fight with Buddy Roberts and that fight will now not take place tonight.

Jonathan Brookins vs. Vagner Rocha - Round 1 -Feeling out and Rocha lands a right hand. Brookins catches a kick and lands a right hand in return. Nice little flurry by Rocha. Nice flurry and Rocha gets the better of it again. Right hand by Brookins lands. Brookins reverses a takedown attempt by Rocha and Brookins unloads on him and Rocha is out! Wow! Brookins just showed some serious closing skills. Jonathan Brookins wins by KO (punches), 1:32 of round 1.

That's it for our coverage of the prelims, you can read our main card results right here.

can't wait for WED UFC

also sup Brookhouse

He's overrated haha

I totally rushed and guessed on my picks..Feeling a terrible performance by me this card!

It's a pretty tough one to pick. 3 fights between newcomers and 3 other I'm not too confident about.
I'm totally swamped on the prelims
Pssst guys

There are now naked pictures of all three current ring girls online. You didn’t hear it from me.

Oh really?

Who are the ring girls tonight? I’m at work so I can’t catch the fights

Same as always

Arianny, Brittney, Mariah Ashton

I hope you guys picked Bernardo "Trekko" from Australia.

He is a good fighter but all his wins are by UD.

Also, where the fuck is Earl?
In honor of Bloody Elbow's 5th birthday, here's my crudely done 9 second tagline for this website

http://kiwi6.com/file/36a2y69b5g

I sound like a jazz musician, not someone who should be doing anything MMA related.

Reminds me of the radio DJ off of Reservoir Dogs.
Got a Watson, Markes, and Herman parlay

There better not be another bullshit decision to derail my parlay like Koscheck/Pierce last card.

A nice Wednesday card, I’ll have I take a rain check on my white whine Wednesday tribunal

So, Anik and Florian are commenting tonight right?

He could get grinded to a decision, or even submitted, but I’ve got Tim Means by KO. Just uh, throwing that out there. War Ned Stark’s Bastards.

I picked Means last night

Switched it to Magalhaes because of the staff.

If I’m wrong, I will be pissed.

Magalhaes isn't looking good right now.
Wasn't impressed by what I saw and Magalhaes doesn't look like he'll shy away from a fitching.

I have seen Means fight on the regional scene. Very impressive Thai boxing, dont trust his grappling accumen enough to pick him vs Malgahaes

I float this again

What’s everyone eating and drinking? I have San Miguel and Doritos

About to have some Tilapia

Late lunch.

By the time this finishes

I’ll be tucking into some Bacon, Sausage, Ham and Eggs. As it will be 4am and I won’t be bothering with sleep as one of my jobs starts at 8am.

Three types of meat eh.. if we ever needed a reminder that you’re British, we can always refer to that breakfast list.

Mofongo and Pork w/ hot sauce

This card looks amazing.

Fucking hell to make picks for though.

Anyone on the facebook stream page thing

and just getting a screen?

No whoosh-whoosh-whoosh screen or play option or anything for me…

I don't have the whooosh either.

But it’s supposed to start in 15 mins.

In case the FB stream doesn't work

www.Fuel.TV has them streaming too, and you DO get a whoosh whoosh

http://www.fuel.tv/ufc/events/sanchez-vs-ellenberger/

Minus the actual sound
It did that last time.

No worries. It’ll still play.

Okay then, thanks

Even if it doesn’t, I’ve got the Fuel website for a backup.

It just popped up a second ago

WE ARE LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Howdy folks. Going to try to be in here tonight while I do PBP over at Gals Guide. Come pop in and leave a comment, if you’d like!

HEEEERE WEEE GOOOO!!!

Does anyone feel confident in their picks tonight? I sure don’t.

Andrei Arlovski called he wants his mouthpiece back.

Trekko by decision

Feels good to hear Buffer again after that TREMENDOUSLY LONG week without a UFC card we just had.

Yeah, that was hard times. But the XFC and UCMMA cards I watched instead very pretty entertaining.

Playground has the fights in order!

I find joy in the little things.

who'd you guys pick for the hot bout?

i originally had Kuivanen by submission round 2 but then i saw the staff picks and pussed out and went with Salas.

I feel like that decision will haunt me.

I go for a decision most of the time in hot bouts

and Salas seems to be the favorite

Welp I can't stream facebook at work..

So I’m stuck reading your guys comments. Haha.

Does youtube work?

Nope they want me to do work or something.

I switched from Means to Magalhaes after seeing the staff picks.

:/

Honestly whenever I have no idea who the fighters are

I look at records, finishing rates, and then pick accordingly

Strength of competition!
The Dirty Bird?

What a nickname. I presume he didn’t come out to Surfin’ Bird, which is unfortunate.

Is he from Atlanta in 1998?
Well-Done, Sir

That was a nice reference. I started the stream right before the fight started so I didn’t see if he did any sort of Jamaal Anderson tribute before he got in the cage.

means is looking good.

10-9 Means

Dallas Winston you are failing me

so yyea those knees seem effective

10-9Means

Right off the bat

Seems like I made an awful pick.

Same. It makes you feel dirty

Come on Means

knock him out in the second.

I hate one-dimensional grapplers

:(

I don't think I've ever seen so many knees landed in a round.

Anyone?

Nah, weren’t that many.. I’d say Werdum vs Nelson last week or whenever it was had more

whats up, mutherfukers

skipping my 5:30 class to be here

Does anyone know how quickly ufc.tv puts up fight replays? Also will their be a rerun of this event.

I hope Magalhaes lands a hail mary right hand and gets me 5 points cause hes got nothing else going on and is going to lose for sure.

Same.

Aside from the half gaurd sweep, he’s got nada

I'm liking this strike count thing they're doing
Alright you ugly mutherfukers I am here

Oh look everyone, the Earl of Montclaire has graced us with his presence! Take a bow!

LEEEEEEEEVER SHOT!
Bas just nutted.
Fuck everyone. Here I am.

Trekko has to finish this one to win.

yeah his record tells me he wont

Aw yeah, let’s go prelims.

20-18 Means.

KNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

yea im thinking we might see some 30-26 cards

i like the live statistics thing not sure how correct they are but interesting.

Wish Kenny would shut the fuck up about this overhand right. Means obviously thinks dude hits like a chump, and isn’t worried about it.

You could at least commit to your guard pulling and ake me feel better about myself.

20-18 Means. Trekko's getting his ass kicked.
Cmon means

Get me a KO!

Make it hot?!?!?!?!

I like midfight stats more than pre fight stats

Copied from my Twitter page:

The UFC either needs to matchup one-dimensional grapplers against weak ground games, or just stop signing these guys. They look terrible.

Magalhaes has a name in the Australian regional scene, his signing serves more purpose than simply him being a prospect.

Wouldn't it have made more sense to put him in the Aussie card then?

FML, I thought this was the Aussie card. Point well taken. lol

I need Magalhaes to Russow him for 5 pointz
A la Manny pacquiao

yeah Kenny is annoying me already

Couture is the best analyst to do this kind of job, IMO

Another leever shot

This is like Bedford vs. Gaudinot
It's bad

but no where near that bad.

It looked like Bedford was beating the shit out of a child in that fight.

Well, I like to think that Gaudinot is slow enough to be considered "like a child".

zero points for me.

30-27 Means

Will we see Trekko again?

Not unless he drops in weight...he looked tiny compared to means
Fucked him up well and good
This is your fault, BE staff.

I did the same shit when Shalorus fought Khabib whatshisface.

when will we learn that these goofs have no idea what they are talking about????

Guess that means I’m about to see Salas lose my 11pts.

I feel sorry for you guys who picked Trekko because of the staff picks.

I picked him because of his Brazilian surname
That was a pretty bad beat down.
I'd totally be fine with cutting Magalhaes after that performance

That’s a showing worth not deserving a 2nd fight.

I wouldn't be fine with keeping him

To be fair, I only watched the last round and a half of the fight.

He didn't look good in the first two either.
Dirty Bird wins

Jamal Anderson approves!

Dammit.

I wanted to go with Means by tko. Shitty way to start off the night.

What's up, bitches?!

Why the fuck did the BE staff tell me Magalhaes would decision Means? And why didn’t Ladbrokes give me my free $25 so I could make a Watson/Means parlay?

Youre a bitches.
Shut up, Earl of Whirl

Heeey! Pølsemannen

dude is getting cut

faster then burt watson can say “and we rooooooooollin”

hot bout time..

please win Salas

I'm even less confident for that one than I was on Means-Magalhaes.
Get rid of those ads ZUFFA!

If I’m watching the prelims I’m probably going to check out the main card and know how to find it

would u rather have dead air?

Finland gonna beast here

I hope so...picked him based on superior Number of pointy consonants in his name.
i picked him because the other guys name is very close to Salad

and fuck salad

you dont make friends with salad

Come on Anton

I have no idea who either of you guys are but picked you.

Whats upppp.

Disappointed in Magalhaes.

Will Salas’s feet melt agin?

5 day weekend begins now, jotos
Got a day off from babysitting?
Got Kuivanen in this one

All-BE Scouting Report SHOWDOWN

One look and you can tell Kurivanan or whatever is going to win

Salas is a wrestler against a european fighter. I feel good about this pic

He’s pronouncing Kuivanen wrong :( – Kujjvannenn

Yup

Emphasis on KUI (pronounced like the second half of Tony Ferguson’s nickname, El Cucuy, right?)

Or like the latter part of the word “decoy”, only switch the o for a u

Salas gots this one.
Justin Salas has an excessively punchable face.

Not quite Dollaway-level, but punchable.

Didn't realize Salas was a wrestler...

Starting to regret going with Kuivenan

he gonna sub him
Fuck that, I need points more.
Wreslefuck all the way to a UD!
YEAH

lets go salas!

WHat happened to team unity?
i was at work when you all were unifying

so i couldnt change

Salas

winning in the walkout music section of the fight. What song is that?

If Kuivanen wins I bet you Goldie would be at home saying

“AND THE FINISH PROSPECT FINISHES HIS OPPONENT, Joe.” next to his Rogan cardboard.

Now I really want Anton to win, just so we can relish the goldieisms
Anyone else think Salas looks like a white version of Carver from The Wire?
Herc and carver's love child?
There was always some... sexual tension going on there
They had the bickering couple dynamic
Man, I'm always blown away by the audio/visual quality of the facebook live stream.

If the UFC streamed all their events via facebook and made them available for 10$ instead of 50$ I’d be buying more often.

Sweet music from both guys.
zz dude is shredded
WAR KUIVANEN!!

Trivia: I’m 50% Finnish genetically speaking.

My last name is derived from the word Koetter which means hangover in German.
Germany reporting in. We're sorry to inform you that Koetter doesn't mean hangover. It doesn't exist.

Kater means ‘male cat’ in German.
Koeter (Köter) means ‘mutt’.

That is all.

I've been told that both definitions have been used.
Kater does mean hangover, but not koetter. :)
Ah, now I understand!
And not that it's a good source...

But if you put in “male cat” and “hangover” into Google Translate they both come back Kater.

Damian for the first guy

Stephen for the second.

Awesome.

I was walking out of the room and heard “It is written” and had to stop and see what bad ass came out to that.

Mark Powell seems like a nice man lol

salas looks like peter rosenberg

Chop Salas' head off and remove the tattoos

and you’ve got Shogun’s body

That is quite the phallus tattooed on Salas back

Justin “The Spinal Phallus” Salas!!!!!!

Inadvertent Dong
I switched this from a Kuivanen UD to a Salas UD this morning as well...
Can I no longer depend on debuting wrestlers to LnP their way to victory anymore?

Is this the first Finnish fighter in the UFC by the way? Can’t recall anyone else

Rooting for the Fin since he has no tattoos and Salas has terrible tattoos.
Niceeeee job Fin

Anton (the fighter) looks good

10-9 Kuivanen

I dunno, two takedowns? probably gotta be 10-9 Salas

who are you trying to convince?

he did jack shit with the first one

and then got the second one with 2 seconds left.

Got lit up with body kicks the whole time in stand up

TAKEDOWN STEALS THE ROUND
Salas, I guess, won that with the takedowns even though he did jack shit with them

Should be 10-9 Kuivanen. But probably not.

2 judges for salas
1 judge for anton

Should be 10-9 Anton

Will be 10-9 Salas, I bet.

I just want to say

FINNISH HIM

10-9 Salas

/CW bias

close round. 10-10 but will be 10-9 Salas
Finnish dude looks like he just cut weight

Is anyone else encouraged by the two 30-26 cards in the previous fight?

No

just because I know I’ll be disappointed later

Salas looking better in this round!

And on cue, Anik makes note of it.

the difference is drinkability
Hello fellas.

I’m late to the party

Kuivannen is getting caught off balance way too much, makes Salas punches look better than they are

I could use a sweet grappling-heavy fight tonight.
These fights have been pretty meh so far.
These are Fuel event prelims

I’m expecting regional level MMA

Sometimes these guys are hungry enough to put on pretty good fight.

I think it’s one of the reasons why WEC was so awesome (aside from how much little guys WAR)

19-19

I agree

But I bet the judges think it’s 20-18 Salas.

10-9 Salas

20-19

I’m hoping for a Salas UD

20-18 Salas

/CW bias

10-9 Salas 20-19 same.
19-19

No way the Finnish dude isn’t gassed by now. He seems too big for this class

Oh hi Brittany I saw your boobies today

A bit lackluster, just like Arianny.

Lmao, I dont understand that sentiment? Lackluster?

Lackluster is a bad word. Disappointing. I was expecting better.

I mean … there boobs. What more could you have expected. I mean I am willing to wager you have seen a few pairs in your life. What were you expecting?

The pictures simply aren’t very good. Nothing wrong with their bodies, just that Playboy seems to not do so great things with it

Lackluster

Wasn’t the reaction I had when I saw the picture of Brittney!

I blame Playboy's photoshop people
Same here

They always do weird shit.

I didn't even bother whipping it out

Never thought that would have happened

Wait.. there are six main card fights? Damn.

Correct

The card will go from 8 to 11 Eastern, but it’s not like they’ll be pressed for time, as who cares if it does go a little long.

Yeah, guess so. Doesn’t matter really, it’s just that until right now I had thought we were getting six fights on FB and four on main card. Guess I must have misread the info leading up to this

GO FOR CALF SLICER

These guys are really evenly matched

This is the 3rd round, no?

graphic says 2nd.

Yeah, it's the 3rd

They seem to be messing up with the timer a lot lately.

Yeah, just noticed that too.

Haha yeah, not the first time they've made that mistake.
Ha! Didn't notice until you mentioned it.
They just took it away and fixed it
And they took the graphic down. Aaaand its fixed.
C'mon Salas

Hit a double leg and ride out the end of the fight.

Brittany Palmers cans look just as bad as I imagined they would

Dat ass > bewbage
they look like pecs.
Really?

I know I get shit when I say this, but there are women who look way better with clothes on.

What?

I thought that was a fact.

To be fair

All my friends are drunken party heads who think just because they took some boxercise classes I would be able to judo them to the ground and beat them up.

That doesn’t make any sense

I have a lot of dumb friends
They certainly have interesting thought processes
Dude, I need new friends
Exactly what I thought reading this
I'm here

Can I rewind the youtube stream, or do I just have to ask you guys what I missed?

Answer: nothing much

I see

It’s hard picking these fights between unknowns. Apparently Means beat the shit out of Mal. I didn’t pick Means, but I wouldn’t say I was shocked.

Yeah, that was one of those fights were you were made feel stupid by your pick (I had Magalhaes). Very onesided, was okay I guess but nothing to write home about.

I don't beat myself up about it

Both guys are for the most parts unknown quantities. At that point you’re just rolling the dice.

Yeah, that is true.

I always beat myself up about it

When it’s that one-sided. I feel like I could’ve done more research or whatever.

I do a fair amount of research on the fighters myself

But at some point you just have to say fuck it and take an L.

So do I

But I never feel like I know enough.

Me too

But to be fair, there is a TON of MMA out there.

Nice. That should seal the fight.
who's commenting with KenFlo?

I missed it earlier

Jon Anik, my lord and savior.

Jon Anik

he used to be on MMA Live on ESPN

I score this fight 29-28

Damn.. that’s a tasty looking salad.

I thought tossing salad wasn't in the unified rules
What the hell???? That was the most blatent fence grab i've ever seen! (by Salis)

What was the ref doing? He held the fence for like 6 or 7 secs. And the other dude was going for sub. SHITTY REFFING!

did not notice that!
was this during the heel hook/kneebar attempt?
How did you not notice? How did Kenny not notice? How did the Ref not notice?

He was going for the Sub and Silis was holding the fence forever while the European fighter was going for the heel hook. That was bullshit. That should have been a point deduction if you are ever gonna deduct a point for fence grabbing.

Kenny doesn't say shit when the officiating is terrible

One of the biggest knocks on his commentary.

I was looking at the heel hook attempt.

I have to imagine that’s what everyone else was looking at too.

Although the ref is supposed to be paying attention to everything.

I have to agree with Maddux

It was beyond blatant.

Yeah. Ridicules.
FELLOWS! LOVELY LADS!

HAI

Dude when is the first installment of your top 50 coming?!
30-28 Salas
i like 30-28

better than 29-28. solid 10-10 rd in the 2nd.

22 points yeaaaaaa

29 – 28 no points for me

Gonna sub him?

yeah well......shit happens and shit
Shit

That was the hot bout

Was anyone else kinda “meh” about Britney’s spread?

I know, I know, neckbeards, beautiful girl, and no, I couldn’t do any better, but I was kind of underwhelmed.

Again

Fuck Playboy’s photoshop people

All the magazines

Playboy, Sports Illustrated…Photoshop is out of control. Playboy makes everything look like CGI.

Well, that.

But her breasts were as ridiculous-looking as I’d expected. Armpit cleavage.

I honestly didn't that much because

I’M AN ASS MAN

*cue song

As am I.

That part was pretty solid. Didn’t see much of it, though. Her tattoo choices are also very suspect.

She went out with Donald Cerrone

I guess many of her decisions are questionable

Very much missing out on ass shots were Brittney’s playboy pics, Joe

You are a crazy, She is a beautiful young woman both clothes and unclothed. What were you expecting?

Read the thread about it and get everyone's reaction

Is that how that works? I’m new here.

Yup it sure is

but yeah they were super disappointing and Playboy is definitely the one who could fuck it up

I could have went with a spread more similar to Mariah Ashton's.
29-27?

9-9 round?

I know

WTF?

I'm guessing

10-9
9-10
10-8

no way there was a 10-8 in there
Methinks they screwed up adding a 10-10.

22 points

YAYAAAAAY

yea

gimme those 22

22 MUTHERFUKERS!

Should’ve been a 29-29, though.

This was the hot bout?

Nice! I got 22 points for that.

Not sure what 29-27 is all about.

oooo yea 22 points

J Bomb. horrible horrible horrible nickname

Mad?
you disagree?
It is pretty annoying.
It really is a bad nickname
It's #2 on the P4P list

Just behind C-Murder.

what about Nick "Promise" Ring?
i love that nickname

Why no one pick Anton?

2 fights, 33 points. I'll take it!
Thank god

makes up for a zero on first fight

finally a perfect hot bout, but i suppose everyone had it

0 for 2.... :S
That's the first hot bout I've gotten right in a while.

Sorry for scorning you, BE staff.

Dammit

I’m faltering now. I don’t think I’ll be #6 come tomorrow.

Gimme those 22 points.

What’s up, Voices in Palhares’ Head?

Welcome new teammate!
76% of the CW camp had Salas winning
Not so proud member of the other 24%

I hate the hot bout. Except when it helps me and not you guys. Then I like it.

When in doubt, go with the wrestling

I got Buddy picked for the next fight

Fuck I missed the Hot Bout

i’m pretty sure that means i’m going to do bad this event.

how do u see your points
You have to add it up yourself

theres a fight companion thing though on playground.

thx
Anyone else digging the promo they just showed?

Nah. Not a fan of the video effects.

Heh, I actually liked them.

I feel like the standard promos they do are getting a little stale, so I enjoyed seeing something different.

Usually I think the promos are silly but for whatever reason I thought that was a cool one.

I think it looks hilarious. Someone needs to DBZ these promos. Super Sumo style

Buffer just announced a 10 minute break.

Get your refills/piss breaks in.

Fuck!

Well that sucks. Loeffler fight cancelled.

there goes about a third of my parlays….shit.

fight canceled. lame

Dammit

No Freebird Buddy Roberts!

bullet dodged methinks!!!!

that ankle is rocked

that is a horrible swollen ankle

no Loeffler-Roberts.
Wasn't confident in my pick anyway.

The destroyer not getting submitted by Buddy tonight he hurt his ankle

LOL

I was calling Loeffler as Reinhardt 2.0, so whatevs

Did you guys miss the fence grab too? That was no ordinary fence grab.
When was it?

I have time now

During the calf slicer/heel hook attempt
3nd round. When Salis was defending the heel hook/ knee bar attempt.

it was held for a long time. the ref walked past it a few times

How did the ref miss that? The refs are getting worse and worse. Maybe Salis would have been Subed if he didn't grab the fence.
Where is fingers definitely through the cage?

Or did he just have his hand resting on it?

Definitely through the cage

He was hanging on for dear life.

That is pretty bad then.
Dunno if it was mentioned earlier

But the ref for the first fight totally missed Magalhaes grabbing the hell out of Means’ shorts on a couple of takedown attempts.

So long story short, the reffing has been consistently bad

Loeffler NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do believe there's a Yuengling calling my name in the fridge
damn I miss Yuengling!

I used to live in FL when I went to school….was my beer for choice down there. Now I’m back here in Seattle and can’t find it anywhere

MD here

Just started drinking it last summer. I like my beer to not taste like anything, and this fits the bill.

Aww that sucks
I thought the ankle was the guy who lost in the first fight.
Me too until I saw all the tattoos
Well that sucks...

should be a cake walk for Brookins, Rocha sucks

I want to see some lateral drop action

As for Loeffler

I still have to throw out there that I laughed and laughed yesterday when I looked at his Sherdog entry (and by the way, their new site does look rather nice) and saw he was affiliated with something called Manufractured Fighting; that’s definitely the name of a smaller fight camp!

why the cut to blue flame?
There's Only One Fight Left

on the prelims so there is no hurry to get it started. It should be back up in a few minutes… and yeah, that’s what she said.

I stepped away for a minute and now it's on the blue smoke screen

don’t they usually keep the camera on?

either your SNAR or your BROCKLE is to blame for it

i’m sure of it

I imagine they don't know what to do with a cancelled fight
i've never known them to be shy about slinging ads at us
they do.

But they know that BE loves the BLUE SMOKE.

WAR BLUE SMOKE.

The next bout was scrapped due to a freak ankle injury.

did they say how he hurt it?
He had a classic case of

hegotscaredhomie

Buddy Roberts says on Twitter that Loeffler broke it while warming up

That must be the worst feeling for both guys

Not yet. Probably warming up. Weirder things have happened in the moments before scheduled bouts (see: Randleman, Kevin and Shamrock, Ken).

What up Bitches??

Awesome to see Salas pick up the win, he’s a local guy here (CO) and fights out of Grudge.

fight got scrapped last minute

how bout an impromptu interview with local Omahanians?

the dream sounds terrible. He’ll always be The Nightmare to me

Dirty

He needs to change it to “Dirty”

Diego Dirty Sanchez. Active Preacher Man
I've been saying this for years.
there's only one Dream to me

and his name is Hakeem

Dean "The Dream" Meminger would like to have a word with you.

Is He Related

to Bellator Brian Hemminger?

Does Salas have a giant vagina tattoo on his back?
Mandingo "signed" his back
That was very nice of Antonio McKee
Can I just use this unwanted break to say

That I called the Brittney Palmer disappointment?

From the crazy Editorial Alumni live chat:

Brittney Palmer’s stock will fall after she does Playboy.

Will people hate Donald Cerrone a little less now, I wonder?
Unlikely
What's worse: Her Playboy pics or his cowboy hat?

(I haven’t seen them)

Her boobs are pretty awful.
They're not that bad

At all.

dude they are bad bad bad

she could have breast sex with an elephant

Plastic is your favorite material, I assume. And you love the fakeness

I don't think they're great, at all

But compared to the cowboy hat? I’ll still take her tits.

so, at least they're not shaped like cowboy hats, is what you're saying?

Here’s an idea: get yourself a Tapout cowboy hat, and maybe you’ll one day experience those magnificent, artificial mammaries

Stop twisting my words, goddamnit

Better words than nipples, eh?

Given your insatiable need for fags when you're drunk

Yes, yes it is.

Just had one, bud. I like putting them in my mouth

Dammit, Loeffler!
Saw the fence grabbing

I’m protesting that they give the other guy a submission victory to salvage my score.

Alright guys.

Off work heading to class good luck to my team on their picks. The rest of you can fuck off!
P.S. I love you.

I’m in class right now! What’s up, grad school?

Wow, Ruining Your Special Night. HOW WE DOING SO FAR? Check your emails, bros.

horrifyingly bad
yeah i got 0 points

Come on guys! I thought we were all on the Salas UD train!

i was at work and didnt have a way to change it

MMA > Real-life responsibilities. Everytime!

yeah. I know.

Oh well. Hopefully we can see Diego Sanchez get knocked out into stevia land or whatever astral plane he goes to.

I usually don't look at the email conversations until friday

Orlando’s Brookins

Rocha sub1

What the fuck was I thinking?

I've got Rocha, but by decision.

I only saw Rocha’s Cerrone fight and that was a horrible performance

I picked Brookins UD

Looked great against Mckenzie.
I have the same!

Brookins sucks.

8 mile

Ugh

You know bad meets evil came out right Rocha?

What?

You’re criticizing this because it’s old?

No

Because it’s overused

Okay

If I was ever to be a fighter, I’d use the best, least used rap songs ever.

Eminems new shit isn't that good
Recovery was pretty damn good
Yeah

Never understood people disliking it.

I disagree

At the same time I’m someone who wrote a thesis on 1999-2002 era Eminem.

Sounds interesting

What about?

Note this is in high school not college

Just about his mastery of rap and the techniques he employs that make him one of the greatest of all time during this era (internal and external rhyme structure, wordplay, ect.). Also I wrote a lot about how his style is an combination of Masta Ace and Pharoahe Monch (he uses Ace as an influence on his content, and uses Monch as a HEAVY influence on his rapping technique).

Pretty boring stuff to anything that wasn’t my English teacher.

Oh okay, still interesting.

You’ve probably seen this but this video highlights some of Eminem’s writing talent….Even if it is Lose Yourself.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miIxNCn-vjY

No

Because it sucks

Just confirmed with @ufc that Loeffler will still receive his show money, and Roberts will receive both his show and win money. Classy move.
Is anyone doing

OBP’s BE drinking game?

I think I’m going to try it for the next PPV

It was mostly based on Joe & Goldie though

I honestly don’t see how Brookins wins this. His striking is laughable, and I don’t think he can out-grapple Rocha

He might be able to

He’s tough and he got Aldo down. I think he loses, but he has a decent shot.

Eminem music should be banned from walk-out songs.
pretty sure he/his label pays fighters to play his tracks.
His stuff on the radio sucks

He does have some pretty impressive songs though

in general or lately?

Cause I mean, early Em was some of the best rapping of all time…

Easily

Probably the best person at combining internal and external rhyme structure simultaneously.

Listen to his BET cypher with Shady 2.0

Every verse was very good, his was incredible.
His song with B.o.B. on B.o.B.’s mixtape was good
Some stuff on Bad Meets Evil was pretty good
Recovery had a few good tracks as well

I prefered Mos Def's verse myself
Bedazzled shirt

I’m regretting my pick of Rocha already

Eminem's "Lose Yourself" as entrance music?

Yup, he’s gonna lose.

whats up with the pole?
Brookins gonna grind out a W
Hope to see some random lateral drops from Brookins
Light complected Jon Jones about to happen.

Rocha is going down

he does look kind of like jon

michael jacksonfied jon jones

-100 for using Lose Yourself

Is it fighter bashing to point out that Brookins looks vaguely ape-ish?

Soooo are they waiting 15 minutes before the next fight?
No next fight.

Loeffler hurt himself warming up.

Jonathan Brookins may be the ugliest man alive
Don't watch much baseball, do you?

There’s some ugly, ugly dudes in MLB

Yeah he’s not pretty..

Brookins via having an awesome walkout song.
What is that entrance music by Brookins?

Sounds so familiar.

Yeah can't put my finger on it.

Midnight City – M83

Dammit

You got it just before me; I had to look it up on Twitter.

Brookins might be worse than Fitch

At least he loses more often though.

the difference is coachability

So is it Stann and Glazer announcing?

Nope

Florian and Anik.

Anik and Florian have dibs on all Fuel and FX cards from now until forever.

Yeah that’s what I though, but someone up there mentioned Stann, and Florian sounds a little strange tonight

Love those Hayabusa fight shorts Brookins is rocking.
Don't worry Brittney

Even if everyone hates on your Playboy pics, I’m still here for you.

Midnight City by M83

was Brookins walkout music. Probably sounds familiar from Victoria’s Secret commercial

I was thinking M83 but wasn't sure.
HOLY SHIT!

Did not see that coming.

for realsies?

who saw that shit coming

man thats some power from brook that i haven't seen before

Nicely done Brookins

OH. MY. GAWD!

That was unexpected!

glad I picked Brookins

Wow your streams are all way ahead of mine
Hit ze Go Live button.

Yeah I noticed that the youtube stream is approximately 30 seconds ahead of the Facebook one. I still watch FB for the better quality though.

Foot, meet mouth. That was impressive

I picked Brookins Rd 2 Sub

BUT I’LL TAKE IT!!!!!

Holy shit.

Did anyone fucking pick that?

NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE
5 points I'll take it.
Good job

I doubt a lot of people got 11 or even 7.

At least I know the most anyone got from this was 5.

Damn, that was weird

Those shots looked soft

Either way 5 points

But they were dead on with no defense
5 clean shots to the same side of the jaw. No def by Vagner there.
OH HOT DAMN

0 points but awesome for Brookins he’s a likable guy

Those were fucking clean shots to the jaw

they didn’t even look like they were that hard.

Those punches didn’t look very powerful in the replay, I’m surprised they put Rocha out like that

wow Brookins finishes fights!

albino ape power right thur

straight up dangadadanged him

Easy on the albino jokes, please

Some of us have kids with it.

No need to be so serious about it

Got cousins with it, no need to be overly sensitive.

It just seemed unnecessary

That sounds borderline racist.. that being said, I laughed.

Damn, I had Rocha,

but that was impressive. Good for Brookins.

That was pretty damn impressive

The reversal on the takedown attempt was awesome.

And quite a good finish.

That was pretty damn good.
No points

But we’re all winners here today.

I picked Rocha, but that violence was worth me being dead wrong.
I'll take the 5, I know no one got more than that haha

Lol Brookins is the nicest guy ever

I like this guy

I hope he doesn’t fail his drug test.

Patchouli isn't banned, i don't think
Man man man
Come on, man

there’s no need to be like that man, the dude, man, he’s just hyped man. I mean, did you see that finish, man?!

Damn, man!

R1 KO Brookins, anyone pick that perfect?

Why didn't I listen to my super hot english teacher who I used to hit on

She told me to never change my answer unless I knew for a fact I was dead wrong.

wow man you’re so cool

You forgot to use the sarcasm font.

Implied sarcasm is implied.

Really? I did not know that

Vagner "Glass Jaw" Rocha

Dude, he took monster shots from Cerrone and survived.

to quote PDL:
CERRONE IS EXPOSED!

/jk

He took off balance, all arm, punches from Brookins and went to sleep fast

I have to think

The cut played a part.

So learn how to fuckin' cut weight, Vagner.
I'll take 5pts for 27.
That was pretty cool, despite the 0.

22 overall still.

Stop pulling guard in MMA

was that really pulling guard?
looked like a failed take down attempt.

They'll never learn...

Unless you know 100% you will sweep

Awkward knockout of the year

I'm surprised so many people went with Rocha

Well I figured they’re both ground fighters, with Rocha being the better submission fighter. Stand-up, they both suck

See you all in the main thread.

I turned on the facebook prelims and the takedown happened.

Perfect timing.

so easy a caveman can do it.

Those shots were so clean
I'M THE JUGGANAUT, BITCH
whats all this points business

am i missing out on some sort of fantasy mma league?

Yes, yes you are

mmaplayground.com has a predictions option

glad one exists at least

even if it looks like i’ve missed this one

Two exist

MMA Playground and Tapology. The latter is probably slightly better but MMA Playground allows you to form a league which is what we’re doing.

If you wanna join the prospects league for next season follow the link in my sig.
If you want in for Season 3 in a month or two..

go here: http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2012/1/31/2761068/becw-the-prospects-camp-sign-up

Make some picks, and you just might get yourself drafted for Season 3 of the Bloody Elbow Civil War

Everyone who signs up gets drafted, but yeah, always good showing you’re reliable.

Brookins....

great showing

this does not bode well for me only 22 points so far

And to make matters worse you only get to enjoy my sig for 1 more week!

you are cruel good sir
At least

Nobody got 11/7 in the Brookins fight. I’m at 22 myself.

true that thank god for the hot bout but no one picked brookins first round tko
Oh yeah? Well I'm at zero!!! Ha!

fml

To quote the thespian and scholar, Bryan Callen,

“Jake Ellenberger’s head is shaped like a fire hydrant.”

I love it, Herman and Sanchez on the same card. Let the crazywar commence.

does Dave Herman normally shave his whole body? I hardly recognized him, lol.
