Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    Europe's Best-Kept Secret
    http://www.sherdog.com/news/articles.asp?n_id=10092
    He started boxing at age 15. Twelve months later he was the amateur boxing champion of the Netherlands. When he figured out that he wouldn't make it to the top of the sweet science in a country as small as Holland, he switched to kickboxing ...

        No. There is a library of other videos of some of his other fights (http://video.google.com/videosearch?...en&sitesearch=), but currently unable to find the video for his last fight.

            Re: Gegard Mousasi - Armenian MMA out of Europe

            Geghard is a great fighter, is he signed with M-1?

            So who else is excited about this wednesday's ufc fight night 13, when 4 Armenians will be fighting?
            For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
            to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

              Mousasi wins in Japan overcoming a strong early attack by his overzealous competitor whose agression on the ground caused his first round downfall when he got trapped in the triangle. http://www.sherdog.com/news/articles.asp?n_id=12522

              "Denis Kang (Pictures) looked to be in the driver's seat early against Gegard Mousasi (Pictures) in one of the card's most anticipated contests. After scoring a takedown, Kang applied a strong kimura attempt from the side, but Mousasi weathered the storm and escaped.

              As Mousasi was on his back, Kang grabbed the Armenian's right leg in what appeared to be an attempt to pass his guard. On the way through, Kang threw a hammerfist strike with his right hand, which caused him to fall into a textbook triangle.

              Sensing that he had an advantage, Mousasi tightened up the technique and forced Kang to tap at 3:10 of the first frame."

                  Re: Gegard Mousasi - Armenian MMA out of Europe

                  Wins again. Takes record to 22-2-1. http://www.nokaut.com/?id=12&solo_ne...DREAM+4+Report

                  Match Five: Middleweight Grand Prix Second Round
                  Gegard Mousasi (21-2-1) vs. Dong Sik Yoon (4-4)

                  Yoon is first to be introduced to the crowd and has a catchy little ditty that I can't place as his walk-in music. He looks rather calm making his way to the ring and Kenny and Bas talk about how difficult Yoon's fights were early in his career, which explained his 0-4 record. Mousasi has a techno-violin combination before it busts into a drum solo with smoke filling the stage area and billowing out into the crowd. He calmly walks to the ring and gives some high-fives to the crowd as Kenny talks about how Mousasi has fought his twenty-four fights in seven different countries, all before the age of twenty-three.
                  Round One

                  Tentative start from both men and Mousasi throws a couple of inside leg kicks before Yoon shoots in, getting a single-leg takedown into the half-guard. Yoon works for full mount but Mousasi gets out of it and takes the back of Yoon while they're standing, landing some knees to the thigh in the corner before trying to drag Yoon to the mat. Yoon holds onto Mousasi's arm in a kimura position and Mousasi continues to land HARD knees to the thighs of Yoon. They restart in the center of the ring and Mousasi just misses a high kick before they trade combinations that miss. Yoon shoots in and Mousasi sprawls, landing a couple of hard knees, following those up with a good knee to the midsection as they fight back to their feet. Front kicks land for Mousasi and he gets a CHOPPING leg kick in on Yoon, forcing Yoon to drop down for a takedown attempt. Mousasi sprawls out of it and takes Yoon's back again before hitting a BIG uppercut as Yoon gets to his feet. High kick JUST misses from Mousasi and he lands an inside leg kick as Yoon shoots in again for a takedown attempt. Mousasi sprawls out of it and pushes Yoon away and they're back on their feet. Mousasi keeps landing the leg kicks and Yoon is already visibly limping, shooting in for a takedown but getting stuffed again. Mousasi on top in the half-guard and he lands some shots before Yoon manages to get things back to full guard. Yoon throws up a high guard and eats a couple of shots before Mousasi backs out of the guard and Yoon is brought back to his feet. Mousasi gets a HARD knee to the chin that puts Yoon down and he pounds away a little bit before ending up back in Yoon's guard on the mat. Mousasi just misses a punch and Yoon tries for a leglock but Mousasi spins away and moves to side control. Elbows to the body from Mousasi and he gets a couple of hard knees before trying for a kimura that he misses, allowing Yoon to take his back. Yoon throws some punches to the arms of Mousasi as he has the back control and Yoon is trying to isolate an arm for a possible kimura. Yoon nearly transitions it into an armbar attempt but Mousasi gets some knees from the bottom to try to break the attempt. Yoon tries to crank on the armbar and Mousasi is holding on with a minute left in the round. Mousasi continues to land the short knees off of his back and Yoon gets the armbar locked in but Mousasi ROLLS OUT OF IT!! Side control for Mousasi and he lands some hard knees to the body and the head as the bell sounds to end round one. Nokaut.com scores the round to Mousasi, but that was a VERY close armbar attempt and made things interesting at the end of the round.
                  Round Two

                  The bell rings for round two and Mousasi fakes a leg kick before throwing a high kick. Yoon gets a nice uppercut to land and shoots in for a takedown but gets stuffed and ends up giving up his back to Mousasi. Mousasi has the body triangle locked on and lands some hammerfists from the back, working at softening up Yoon for a possible choke. The referee stops the action and restarts them in the middle of the ring away from the ropes and Mousasi continues to just hammer away at the head of Yoon. Yoon tries to roll away from it but he can't get any traction and Mousasi just continues to punch away as Yoon breaks the body triangle on the mat. Mousasi gets both hooks back in and looks for the rear naked choke now before landing more strikes to the back of Yoon's head. Ninety seconds left in the fight and Yoon tries to break the triangle again but just keeps taking short punches and hammerfists. Yoon tries to get to his feet but can't and grabs onto one of Mousasi's arms hoping for something, anything to happen. Yoon rolls away from the punches but takes some more and the bell rings to end the fight. Nokaut.com scores the round and the fight for Gegard Mousasi. Fifteen minutes of total domination.

                  Winner: Gegard Mousasi, Unanimous Decision
