5K on Judo Jimmy proving the UFC wrong for passing on him!!!

Isn't Hawns Judo olympic level? Very good match up, I think Wallhead keeps it standing and uses his Muay Thai to win. Will chuck 100k on him at those odds.

the word around Rough House is that the UFC passed on Jimmy to try out for TUF season 12 because they new he would win, no word of a lie that what I heard, I happen to know Jimmy personally he is possibly the best WW fighter in the team, may not have the power of Daley but he is a better all rounder than Daley and Hardy, its close on the stand up between him and Hardy and Jimmy has better TD's and TD defense, his Judo is fcuking awesome, he has a world class Sprawl and is very very hard to take down, Daley and Hardy make Rough House famous but Jimmy is the man. He is a head coach there and to be fair besides making the team world famous he does more for the club and for other members of the team than Hardy and Daley put together, he truly is Team Rough House without his there would be no team.

So is Jimmys, just because he did not represent in the Olympics don't think for one second that Hawns has better Judo, they don't call him Judo Jimmy for nothing.

Hawn decision winner:

Quote:

Round 1 - Hawn brings it immediately, throwning wild strikes and driving Wallhead back into the cage. They trade some vicious strikes and kicks for a bit. Hawn's movement and aggression are much better than Wallhead's so far. Wallhead lands a few good shots, but Hawn keeps throwing good combos. Wallhead is looking like the rookie in this round. End of the round, I give it to Hawn 10-9.

Round 2 - They're trading strikes, Wallhead catches Hawn with a leg kick and almost knocks him down. Again Hawn is throwing more and better combos. They continue to trade, Wallhead finally goes for a takedown but can't get it. Wallhead clinches Hawn against the cage then lets it go. End of the round, again I have it 10-9 Hawn.

Round 3 - More boxing. Hawn has slowed down a bit, and Wallhead seems to be a little more active now. Wallhead looks to be cut. Hawn gets a takedown, Wallhead doing a good job of keeping him tied up. They're back on their feet, and Hawn continues to out-strike Wallhead. End of the round. 10-9 Hawn again. But who knows what the judges saw?

Rick Hawn def. Jim Wallhead by unanimous decision: 29-28, 29-28, 30-27

Am absolutely guttered, hats off to Rick Hawn well done sir, have not seen the fight yet only read up the report but Hawn must have some serious stand up skills to of been able to out strike Jimmy, its a sad day but Jimmy will be back stronger.

I just hope Rick Hawn goes on to with GP now and the title after, good luck Hawn
