Indiglow Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 Just reviewing my fantasy picks and I gotta say after going through this guy's history of fights and his striking, this kid looks pretty damn good. I'm really impressed at his accuracy of his strikes against Per Eklund. Nice combos. Really looking forward to his fight. Gotta add him as one of my up and coming favorite fighters to look out for!

RevelationWT Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 He does look good. Don't think he'll beat Aurelio though. Not sure if he's faced that calibre of grappler - but he's supposed to be good himself defense wise and a good wrestler so - what am I thinking?

JujitsWho Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Dunham was given a gift tonight. I have to agree. It was a very close fight but i had Aurerlio winning a SD in this match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_Kang Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I have to agree. It was a very close fight but i had Aurerlio winning a SD in this match. Dunham clearly won but I don't credit that much to him. Marcus has poor stand up and ok wrestling, nothing to brag abouy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFCITOLDUSO Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I have to agree. It was a very close fight but i had Aurerlio winning a SD in this match. At best. Could've easily been 29-28. Now I'm curious. If you were the only judge for the fight, how do you call it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indiglow Posted August 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I had the fight 29-28 evan but the whole 30-27 for evan was complete BS I'm so sick of ****ty **** ref scoring. If you look at the fight as a whole, evan clearly won. He dominated the stand up, and he was able to neutralize the ground. There was no ground and pound. Just sub attempts that he escaped from. So I would say that if evan didn't get the win then he was robbed. The scoring system is just ****ty though. For 1 ref to think it was a 30-27 and didn't give the last round to marcus was just dumb. I had evan winning rounds 1 and squeaking by round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catch221406050358 Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 i think it was a draw at best , or Aurelio winning 29-28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xhojin Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 The judge that scored 30-27 was sniffing the canvas glue instead of watching that fight. Aurerlio won at least 1 round outright, and it's pretty easy to argue that he got 2 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1fan4fun Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 IMO Dunham did out-point Aurelios, so the judging wasn't bad. However I think Dunham needs to eat his wheaties because he doesn't have the knockout power that would make him a truely fearsome threat in the UFC. Good clean quick striking, but just needs a little extra oomph IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xhojin Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Yeah' date=' he got robbed. Someone call the policia.[/quote'] naw I think Dunham won... barely. I understand why some people argue two rounds for Aurerlio but I think Dunham did squeak out two rounds... but no way he got 3. 3 vs 2 doesn't change the outcome of the fight, he still wins it, but it makes me wonder what the judge was doing.

I heard that and threw beer at the TV at the bar.....completely nuts that someone could have all three round to one guy. A bum off the street could have call that fight better than whoever it was that scored that fight like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodus9mm Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I have to agree. It was a very close fight but i had Aurerlio winning a SD in this match. Tough fight to call, but I'd probably say the result was damn accurate. SD Dunham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His strikes are just quick and accurate, fully extended arm reach, very impressive again. I think of his striking like nick diaz where he just keeps hitting you over and over with light shots, but holy **** Marcus's resilience made me give him a lot of respect.
