Lawlor should take this IMO, he was busier and controlled the fight more. If Couture beat Vera than Lawlor beat Carmont. Plus he got more takedowns, although Carmont landed some nice kicks.
GTFO, whatever. I respect the Canadians for booing even though it was one of their own. Not many countries would do that. Shows me they know their MMA and aren't as biased with their fighters as others. Nuff respect
Both fighters where crap, I blame Lawlor the most because most his fights are crap so it was probably his fault.
I'm glad to see him lose the decsison even tho he probably should have won.
What a god awful decision. Lawlor got the takedowns and landed more punches to the face. Meanwhile Carmont landed some wicked hard kicks to Tom's arms. Why are we scoring kicks to the arms over punches to the face? Are these the same judges who scored the Ross Pearson-Edson Barboza fight?
.....oh wait..... backwards-ass decision favoring the hometown favorite? Yes. Yes they were.
He also controlled him on the cage. It wasn't a OMG robbery, but I thought under MMA judging criteria it was a sure win for Lawlor or at the very least a draw. BTW I am not a Lawlor fight fan (he's funny but thats about it) so this isn't coming from a biased point of view.
Sure. In that case, Lawlor took him down too. You know, if we're counting takedowns that don't end with a fighter holding a dominant position for a few seconds.
As for my own fighting career, my shortcomings haven't stemmed from my eyesight. I'm a very slight myope -- about -0.75 in each eye -- so as long as someone's within 15 feet I can see them crystal-clear.
What's your record again?
