CAGFC (UFC 2009 League) - HW's Only! New Site! Details Inside!

[quote name='sleepy180']Nah i'm kind of over this now. It was great and I thank n8 for setting this whole thing up. It was awesome. But, as of now i'm retiring both my fighters.

Daniel Ortiz | Light Heavyweight Champion | Undefeated
Eric Ortiz | Middleweight Champion | Undefeated

Might have some no contests and even losses for some reason, but those are from not fighting. Nobody ever beat me or my brother here. And at least that will make the league more interesting now too since you can have two tournaments for the belts or however you want to handle it. Thanks for all the great fights everyone.

BTW, I will be back for UFC 2010 to reclaim MY belts so lookout! GG everyone.[/QUOTE]

That's weak, man. The losses and draws you received were due to shitty communication which still persisted up to your final fight. Now, I don't think what Matt did was right naming 7 as the time to fight, and then leaving you hanging, but you both botched this one. What a shitty ending for a title fight.
 
nah man I was planning on fighting matt then retiring anyways. Had nothing to do with matt. I wanted a last title fight too but he didn't show up. Its no big deal and like i said, now you can make like another tournament or two number 1 contenders type deal.
 
All right, finally, the results from CAGFC11: SWEDEN are finalized. The card was definitely an explosive one in the land of milkmaids, seeing both flared tempers and flared pants. Hometown hero, Gail Pennyfeather, suffered a (nut) crushing defeat at the hands of Heavyweight Champion Gary Russell.

And after the sudden retirement of the Ortiz brothers, two titles are now vacant, and will be up for grabs at CAGFC12: BREAKING POINT. Check the OP to see all the great matchups in store this week!

The deadline for CAGFC12 fights is Thursday, 8/20 at 11:59 PM EDT.

In addition to the regular weekly card, we will be holding a special tournament using NON-CAREER, NON-GLITCHED CAFs in the Light Heavyweight division. The tournament will be single elimination and will be used as a test to gauge interest in the possibility of shifting the focus of CAGFC to non-career CAFs. If you wish to participate, please post in the thread, and I'll add you to the list in the OP. Thanks!
 
[quote name='MSUHitman']N8rocker, after this week's card, please put my fighter on hiatus. I'm going to trade in UFC soon because it's worth $33.75 at Gamestop right now with Power Trade plus Edge and I need money to pay for CoD: MW2 Hardened Edition (can't spring $150 for Prestige.)

I may be back later on if I can get UFC for cheap and I'll just restart my fighter at that time as I don't think I'll be able to go through career mode again. I can't justify turning away $34 when I only play this game once per week.[/QUOTE]

Uh I announced my going into hiatus last week n8rocker, remember? Sweden was supposed to be my last fight for awhile.
 
[quote name='DarkTower80']Nate, after this upcoming card I will be retiring my fighter as well. I don't think I will be playing this much more after Madden comes out. Thanks for all your work on this league. It got me most of the way from NHL 09 to 10. I certainly got my moneys worth on UFC thanks to this league.[/QUOTE]

I was going to retire after Sweden too, Nate. Since the card is already done and the matchups are made, I will go ahead and fight this one as my last one instead of Sweden.
 
Well look at that... a few fighters retire from the Light Heavyweight and I'm the #1 ranked fighter by default LOL!

EDIT: In addition I'd also like to sign up for the NON-Career CAF tourney.

Looks like Dana is getting up there in age ;)

I thought Jason Miller was out too?

Chan Vs. Young 4, can Young even the score?

I'm in for the tourney.
 
Im sorry man but a few pages back I posted how I will be out of town all week next week and could not do a fight for the next card. Unless I can get a fight in with my opponent today I will not be able to the fight on this card. Again, sorry but I did post earlier this week that I would not be able too.
 
August 22nd I'm heading to Montana for a few days. so take me off next weeks card. I'll be back Thurs. 27th. I will also be going to Florida Sept. 18th till the 26th. I'll post that again as a reminder in a few weeks.

I said I wasn't sure if I'd be back at 7, and that I'd message him when I did get back. That's what I did. He was good about the communication the last couple days, just not before that.

It sucks that we're losing another middleweight. The division used to be thriving, but not anymore.
 
Well, fuck me. That's what happens when you have too much shit to keep up with.

MSUHitman, sorry, I guess I forgot about that post. I fixed it though, and you're now done.

Darktower, I also forgot about your post (I guess I need to start marking fighters immediately when they announce a schedule change). I appreciate your bravery in taking on Gail Pennyfeather for your last fight.

Alan, fuck you for trying to make me feel completely delusional, lol j/k. I actually did PM Gary and ask him if he could take two fights this week. So, that one was intentional.

MikeBike, I don't even remember seeing that, lol, but at this point, is it any surprise? Anyway, I fixed it, and you're now off this week.

Fowlbeast, by "next weeks card", I assume you mean CAGFC13. Using numbers would really help me out here, guys. I could care less about the dates you're going to be gone. It's just a simple matter of "I'm going on vacation. Please don't put me on the CAGFC13 card".

Anyway, I'm going to go ahead and mark your fighters as "rehabbing" now so I know not to put you on that card, and since the CAGFC12 one is already done, it shouldn't screw me up any. Oh, also, since MikeBike is gone this week, you picked up another fight. Bill Brasky is fighting in his place.

There. I hope that works for everybody. Ahhhhh :drool:

Eh, that's a little less than truthful. What happened was, he said he couldn't play you till 7, but his brother or roommate could play you before that. You got mad about the brother/roommate playing for him, and said "I guess we're playing at 7, then". He said "Ok, 7 it is".

Then, you said "Well, it might not be exactly 7. I'll message you when I get on." That was kind of a dick move, and it kinda seemed like you did it just to get him back for not answering your PM's for a few days or because you were still annoyed with the idea of his brother/roommate playing for him. Why not just say 8? Or 9? How's he supposed to know whether you meant 7:10, 7:30, 7:45, 8:15, etc? Is he just supposed to sit and wait?

Whether or not you messaged him when you got back, it was an hour and a half after the time you agreed (or the closest you two could get to agreed) upon. But what's done is done, man. I'm just saying, I don't like people using these loosey goosey times because that's what causes others to sit around waiting for an hour. What if you had been waiting on him for over an hour? You wouldn't like it, and you know better than that.
 
Right on! another fight. I was simply Illustrating that I was going to be gone for a full week and there was no possible time to squeeze a fight in. Sorry I'll keep it simple next time. Yeah CAGFC13 that seems to be next week.

My tourney fighter:
Gegard Mousasi

I told him 4 and 1/2 hours before the fight that I wasn't sure I'd be back at 7. That's enough time. I went out to eat with family, and we ended up not getting to Black Angus- in San Bernardino, 20 minutes away- till 6:45ish which is why I got home when I did. I wasn't driving. Oh well.. It's over with now, I guess.

Alan, Brandon- let me know what dates and times are good for you. I'll likely be home most of the weekend playing Madden.
 
Tuffgong I sent you a PM about our fight. I'd like to keep working on my figher this weekend since I'm still in the high 50's/low 60's but I'd be fine to go whenever you're ready.
 
We've currently got 6 people for the non-career CAF tournament. I'd really like it if we could get 2 more. With only 6, 2 people would have to take a bye in the first round. Anyone else interested? As previously stated, we're doing Light Heavyweights.
 
Nate, I guess I can play. Is it just going on this week?

And man, I am a loser. I lost multiple games of Madden, and then I went 0-2 the last 2 weeks in title fights.

Jackie Chan l Matt Young l Knockout (flying knee) l I forgot to write down what time of Round 3.
 
Tony Hawk | Gary Russell | KO | 4:15 (? it was 4 minutes and change) of round 3

Holy fuck that was a fight. Early in round one, Russell gained the mount, but Hawk managed to squirt free. Late in the round, Hawk reversed a slam from the clinch, and nearly had Russell in a triangle. The submission lasted nearly a minute in length, but Russell reversed out of it. Both fighters were drained, with Russel having a sliver more of stamina. Russell showed Hawk who is whose bitch by putting his own reversal immediately after. As Hawk was put into a "stage two" submission, Hawk somehow managed to escape back to the standing as the round ended.

Round two was a bit uneventful, with both fighters trading and reversing each other.

In round three, Hawk managed to gain the mount and landed a few blows before Russell gave up his back. Russell attempted to break Hawks grip, but Hawk managed to reverse Russell's attempted stand up, and immediately gained the mount, following up with fists to KO Russell, ending his reign in the Heavyweight division.
Holy Freaking Crap on a Popsicle stick. That was an awesome fight that needed to be on video. Especially when we traded subs, oh man, the suspense. I said it lots, but oh man, if that flick reversal failed, we'd be back to exchanging on our feet. Great fight.

Jackie Chan | Matt Young | KO | 3:08 of Round 3

Another great fight. Some exchanging in the stand up, a bit of groundwork, and even a bit if clinch work. Young landed the bombs, while Chan focused on weaker combos. Reminiscent of the Henderson-Bisping fight, but in reverse, Young was hunting down a defensively circling Chan. Out of no where, Chan threw a flying knee. In slow-mo, Chan's knee connected both on the way up, and on the way down.

Great fight Matt. From the standup, I guess you saw why I usually don't get flash KO'd that much ;)

Wow, nice work, Alan. Two titles in one night! That's amazing. It's crazy that they were both in divisions that the belts had been held the longest, at nearly 2 months for each. It's good though, cause fights like your HW one create rivalries. I'm sure Gary wants another go at you.
 
[quote name='Matt Young']Nate, I guess I can play. Is it just going on this week?[/QUOTE]

Well, I'm not going to put a timeframe on it unless I'm forced to (ie. people show no initiative to get fights completed). Like I said, it's just a test to see if the fights feel any differently at all with non-career CAFs. The only way it would have any bearing on the future of CAGFC is if it was an enlightening process, and we all enjoyed it more. Otherwise, it's just for fun, and so people can face people they've never fought before. As long as you've got a non-career LH to use, you're welcome to participate.
 
I still have to make a guy, but since I decided on welterweight for my next career fighter, I can go with my planned light heavyweight guys, Kurt Angle or Rob Van Dam.
 
One of my greatest matches honestly. I thought I was done when Alan caught my slam. But wow. One of the best I have had for three rounds.

And I'm thinking Russell just MIGHT work his way up the ranks again to gain back his belt. Sorry, no quotes tonight. Need to be up in a few hours time lol.



Tony Hawk | Gary Russell | KO | 4:15 (? it was 4 minutes and change) of round 3
 
All right, if Matt Young is in the non-career tournament, we need one more to give us an even 8.

For anybody who's curious, the patch to not allow glitch fighters does appear to work. I had my Ken Shamrock glitched when I created him months ago, and I went into a quick ranked match today, and he wasn't even on my list of LH's (as though I had never created him).

Now, I don't know if that applies to player matches as well. I didn't think to test that. But what I ended up doing was reducing his stats to where they should have been, and when I went back into quick ranked play, he reappeared on my list. So, for anybody who has a glitched non-career fighter, you can still use him, but you can only assign 3,024 fighter skill points (the default number).
 
Man, what a debacle. Nate, is there an attribute that can keep people down where rotating the stick to get up doesn't matter? I've had the happen in a fight before and I'm not sure if it's something I'm missing or if its just my sticks not responding to the rotations properly. I mean normally I get in that position and I rotate the stick and I either get out or they at least block it. I just don't lay there like a lummox.

Haha, not that I know of. I mean, right stick quarter circles should always ATTEMPT a transition. I was waiting for one, ready to block it. And it was like you started to turn your shoulders, then just gave up, lol. Then we just sat that looking longingly into each others eyes. It started making me uncomfortable, so I had to hit you in the mouth, haha. Really weird fight. I would check your controller though. Maybe your right stick wasn't centered? If you're not busy with Madden later this week, I'd be fine to redo it. But for now, the result was:

Fedor Emelianenko | Matt Domoracki | KO | 2:29 of Rd 1
 
Just read something interesting that's fairly relevant here. Bas Rutten confirmed he's in the EA MMA game on his twitter. This is what he wrote about two hours ago:

BasRuttenMMA People ask me all the time if I am in that new EA-Game? I signed more then a half year ago guys, so yes, now don't ask anymore. Party on

Makes me think EA is going with an "anything we can get" approach, considering Bas is 44, and has had 1 fight in the last 10 years. I wonder if Royce Gracie and Dan Severn will be the game also.

If they do use these old timers, they'd HAVE to put them in their prime...which I guess would make it sort of "Fight Night" style of game, where you could see who's better, Dan Severn or Fedor. It feels a bit like they're grasping at straws, but if the gameplay is solid, I'll at least give it a look.
 
[quote name='Mr Meaty28']Simeon Lamhov announced today that he is considering retirement after his next match. More comming monday................[/QUOTE]

When did he announce that?
 
Alright, the tournament sounds cool. We are doing a single elimination, gran-prix style?
I will get a fighter made hopefully tonight, maybe we can make some brackets soon if everyone gets a guy made.

Oh, and xcoax, just hit me up when your fighter is ready. No rush, I will be on late all week.

Ok, so you're in for the non-career CAF tournament, but you're retiring Simeon Lamhov now, right? Sorry, you're a bit difficult to follow Meaty.
 
Ok, the bracket for the non-career CAF tournament has been posted! Check it out in the OP, and let's see if these fights feel any different than normal. Definitely feel free to give feedback after you complete a match.
 
Nice match Meaty! Your ground game is nice, it was very back and forth. You pulled off some slick reversals, then I was paranoid more were coming. You definitely pulled off a nice title defense.

Thanks, well if we get a chance I'd appreciate the redo. I'll look for you while I'm on the next couple of nights.
 
Gail Pennyfeather l Brandon Craig l TKO l 1:24 of Round 1

Thanks for sticking around to do this week's fight, Brandon. I hope to see you back with another fighter.
 
Kimbo Slice | Matt Paulson | Unanimous Decision (29-28)(29-27)(29-28)

Good fight, both fighters were hesitant to take control but Slice dominated the rounds with his ability to get his combos-off on occasion and get the constant take-downs. Paulson was no slouch who kept Slice rotating away from the high-kick and countering out of his BJJ submission attempts.
 
I'm trying to get a hold on my opponent, Fowlbeast, to fight for the Lightweight Title. Fowl, if you see this, hit me up on Live.
 
Gave UMX a rematch and the result was the same. He came out throwing huge bombs at a break-neck pace, and the smart play for me was just to take him down. Once on the mat, he really had no defense. I mounted easily, as again, he couldn't do any transitions.

I landed a few shots, but then felt bad, so I let him back up. He came flying at me again, trying to break my face, and I just said "screw that", lol. I grappled and took him down with a trip, mounted, threw a few punches, and the fight was over.

Regardless of any "controller malfunctions", I just can't eliminate GnP from my repertoire. It's too big a part of my game (and MMA as a whole, really). I probably would have done some testing before asking for a rematch, but hindsight is 20/20. I hope you get it figured out, Matt because I know you're better than that. But like I said, it just doesn't make sense to stay standing and let you outslug me.
