Welcome to Frank Pozen's Big Bad Blog. A lot of folks have been asking me to update them about my recovery. So I thought I would start a blog primarily to do that but also to talk about other topics of interest including the wrestling business and whatever else I can think of. I plan to update this on a regular basis so check back and leave a comment if you wish.

Big Bad Blog Video Theater-Emily Whitmire vs Jamie Moyle
Here's the match video of Emily Whitmire vs Jamie Moyle from last night's UFC show in Las Vegas. This aired on the UFC Fight Pass prelims. This fight was at Strawweight. Emily was on TUF 26 which was for Flyweights. Before that, she fought at Strawweight. So it appears that she agreed to appear on TUF 26 if she got to move to Strawweight afterwards. Jamie has been revered by delusional internet fanboys since her Invicta days despite not being a very good fighter. She's mainly a wrestler and her striking is not professional level. Jamie recently moved to Team Alpha Male. We'll see if that helped. Jamie's problem was Emily is four inches taller with a significant reach advantage. They were both very tentative in round one. It's like they were fighting to not lose as opposed to fighting to win. Neither was aggressive enough in round one. It was like five minutes of light sparring. I scored it 9-9. They both need to do more. Round two wasn't much better. I again scored it 9-9. The judges scored round one 10-9 for Emily and round two 10-9 for Jamie. So does either fighter want to win or do they just want to screw around for 15 minutes. Emily scores a takedown early in round three and she does enough to win the fight. Ref Jason Herzog kept warning her to get busy. I didn't see anything from Emily to make me think she can beat anyone good. And maybe it's time for Jamie to consider a new career path because she isn't any good at fighting. Enjoy the video!
