I was really surprised the way he came out...it was almost cocky, like kinda half-assing his kicks etc...he landed a great leg kick that stumbled George...but then just kept pawing at him....
they had a nice little scramble and as George was getting up J-Roc let out a soccer kick that had it landed would have sent George to the moon...but again, he half assed it...like he threw it out there just to show he was "throwing stuff"
And, while J-roc's impression of Serra was funny...his corner, team etc didn't help him at all. I will give Serra and his team props for really coaching their fighters...

yeah that sucks to for I was betting on the tree if only it was a little closer and did not give him time to move but hey at least a fighter finally listened to someone (dana saying watch the tree)

Its too bad, I had hoped J-Rock would turn out to be a decent fighter. He had nothing, I hope Dana doesnt bring him back just cuz he cried.  |

I don't think Hughes or J-Ro(c)k was expecting George to stand in there so much, and do good with the striking. I think it will be George and Danzig in the final.
Curly, if Dana does bring him back I hope he's improved and they put him against someone like Dorian Gray or something could be a good fight.

Tree by TKO rd1. The tree has way more head movement.
Seriously, if you want to show someone how to get punched in the face, show them J-rock. No movement at all. Paws instead of blocking so as soon as someone sticks out combos he's up shit creek with no paddle.

Yea he was supposed to be Hughes bad boy but in the end he acted like a wimp and put up a sucky fight and lost. And then mad in the end after he wimped out. But the way Dana talked to him, it sounded as if he liked him so i think he will get a fight down the road.

I think it's funny that J-Roc made fun of Serra's coaching and cornering...and now guess what school he's training at.
That's right, now he gets to hear that coaching on a regular basis. |

Just a blurb from Figure4 weekly, a reputable wrestling site that is branching out to MMA as well.
Quote:
Latest from the Figure 4:
-- J-Rock, the one who made fun of Serra's coaching on the last episode of TUF, is now training with Serra as well, as is Chris Weidman, who was this in the country in NCAA wrestling at 197 last year. Weidman is also training for the 2008 Olympics.
