Penn says officials are clueless; ears ringing Bellator judges?

A sport Is still very young and as other competitions that are judged, mixed martial arts is going through some growing pains. There is a clear picture of what scores in the minds of the judges. B.j. Penn is still steaming on its unanimous decision in loss to Frank Edgar back to 112 UFC. He gets his chance at revenge next weekend in Boston and has no plans to leave it for the judges to decide his fate.

"The judges, as everyone knows, you don't know what they are doing," Penn said."I don't think anyone should get any points for any of the positions stapling. is all about your attempts to damage and submissions, that is the only thing that should Matter in the struggle."

So essentially Penn Takedown to be minimally wants a scored.Unless the fighter by scoring the takedown damage down on the ground or aggressively pursuing a finishers, the takedown should mean little. I tend to agree. Perhaps the judges scoring one heavyweight fights to 25 Bellator Thursday night, he got wind of critical Penn.

Scott Barrett, a former College wrestler, put Damian Grabowski on his back for most of the first and second rounds.But when he was there only looked at improving Barrett and then maintain the position. Meanwhile, Grabowski was very busy lemur nailing Barrett with dozens of punches.Color entry Bellator Jimmy Smith was 2-0 for Barrett going to third.He was wrong.

After Grabowski dominated the final round, the judges has surprised the announcers calling it 30-27 for the Polo. looking upset on his face, Barrett turned almost wondering if the ring announcer Mike Williams had read the name wrong. No, it was corrected. Grabowski moved to heavyweight tournament Bellator and rightly so. judges have done a good job to resist the temptation to score based only on which fighter had control over when the fight has hit the deck.
