A lot of europeans seems to choke and fight @ 50% ability when fighting in europe.

I wonder why that is. :confused02:

Gustafsson didn't succumb to it.

Marcin Held, Misha Cirkunov, Michael Bisping, Davey Grant, Brad Pickett and a lot of other europeans seem to fall prey to it though.

If Gustafsson and Jones fight again, I think without a good referee the one that lands the first significant pokes probably wins.
What about this?

Cannot the refs take away HALF a point when they give a warning. If they do illegal technique again (regardless of which technique) they lose another half point. Third time illegal technique and regardless of which technique = DQ. That means if you do one eye poke (lose half point ansd warning) followed by one fence grab (lose another half, total lost 1 point) followed by groin kick (DQ) you are DQ:ed. As is today these 3 different techniques could just result in 3 warnings :(

Now about the fight, Gustafsson was good and he seems to have been improving techniques. I would not be sure whether he wins against D.C or Jones though. It will be very even fights.
