  • A lot of typo errors , plus Trigue played against Mohammed Yahya (UAE) not Hamzeh Nafush !!

  • I meant Trigue played against Ahmed Al Bussairy,

    Mohammed Yahya played against Hamzeh .. Sorry

      • I tried going on MBC Action right now, but its not now. It says its at 11 pm (dubai time)

        Thanks

        • Oh, so i can’t watch it live? I can only watch it at 11?

          Thanks

  • @Yousef – of course there are a lot of typos . But we are cage side and typing as the action is happening so pardon the grammar mistakes. Its not like we can ask things to slow down a little bit while I type. If your willing to help though do come by.

  • Thank u Nassar, really appreciating ur efforts

    But did Trigui win by TKO or Guilatine chocke?

    • He won by referee stoppage officially :s it wasnt a submission but the referee decided that Hassan could not continue. The guillotine looked very, very tight though

  • we are waiting eagerly for the mountainous fighter, samourai guy, Lawin Khalil, with all wishes of victory!

  • GO LAWIN. Hope you win so you leave the UAE in a good and happy way. Sincerely, your client :D.

  • Thank u nassar for the proffisional and bueatiful writing style.i did expect elias will be kod but not that fast!

  • I think Desert Force has a lot of potential.

    The only problem that I can see is the way its all being put together. The commentary is poor, nothing technical about it at all. It sounds like a few fans discussing the fights.

    Also, the commentators talk about taking sides and who they think will win, they need to be neutral at all times…and only praise the fighters on shows of skill during the fight.

    The refereeing could also be better, for example, the Mohammad Abdulkareem vs Jarijs Danho should have been stopped way before it was, abdulkareem received numerous shots to the back of the head without Jarjis being warned, and when Abdulkareems mouth piece fell out he should have been warned on controlling his mouth piece.

    Other than that, I think the fighters are skilled…the facilities are great and the marketing is high quality.

    Hopefully we will see better commentary and more experts on staff back stage.

    Good Stuff overall though!
