Re: Strikeforce October 9th

Personally I think round 3 could have been a 10-10 round

^^ had to be it, but I just didnt see the round that way... it was not so razor thin that you had to call it a draw.

I thought it was fine. Noons landed the harder shots, Nick landed more.

Nick landed more?

I guess we'll have to see if Fight Metric agrees with Compustrike.

I meant in round 5.

Honestly I don't see any way Noons landed that 311 Compustrike gave him. Unless they just counted all the blocked shots as well.

Who knows. I did feel throughout the fight that Noons was consistently landing cleaner--and perhaps more--strikes than Diaz. But for some reason I had a feeling that Diaz was going to win. The rounds were too close, Noons was hitting a lot of air with his haymakers (which I think leaves an impression of a fighter not landing his strikes in general), and it was Diaz's hometown and he's the champ.

I thought it was pretty clear that Nick was getting the better of the exchanges, aside from round 2.

Maybe. Too bad for Noons he didn't get a couple of knockdowns.

Good luck knocking down Nick Diaz. He would've had to hit him with one of those Gurgel killshots. And Nick got the only knockdown.

Didn't Zaromskis knock Diaz down?

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

It was close, but I thought Diaz clearly won. + 4u. Missed a good bet on Coenen. All my money was tied up.

KJ Noons, broken jaw and broken hand.

Re: Strikeforce October 9th

Interestingly, the Sherdog guys said that after two rounds of the Kaufman / Coenen fight, one judge gave round 2 to Kaufman, all 5 other rounds on the cards were for Coenen.
