I don't think that could be called a win for Stortini, really. I have it as a draw. In hockey fights, once you land a couple blows you can just hug your opponent until the refs break it up and call it a win. That is clearly what Stortini was doing. It is a tactic that works best if you are playing in front of a fight-starved, vocal, and somewhat inebriated home crowd. Stortini used to just cling on for the entire fight. Now he has upgraded to throwing one or two punches and then the hugging begins. Can't really call those wins...but it is a smart way to fight. Hey...Stortini could get hurt if he did anything else...cause he ain't very good really.

As soon as he landed something solid Stortini went all huggy bear again and eventually even went ''Stortortise''.

Nope, you can't be voted the winner of a fight if you land a couple then apply your famous python grip.

Another good showing by Stortini, but I can't give him the win. Draw

Stortini seemed to land a couple more. Noticed big George waved off the linemen while Zack was hanging on for dear life.

What's with Stortini? Lose to nobodies then beat Parros twice?
lol

Stortini was in danger of losing his "velcro pugilist" title with all those early punches, but he soon remembered where he was and turned back into Royce Gracie on skates. Have he and Montador ever gone???...If there's a Canadien "Dancing With the Stars" then he should be a 2-1 favorite.

Typical Stortini"s improved style - 2.0 version: not only hugging, he tries couple of shots early, sometimes it is enough to win. if it isn't enough he switch to huggy bear action. Parros was trying to fight till the end but Stortini hung for dear life.

Stortini should change his name to Huggy Bear!

Posted by tim daddy on Apr 02, 2009 at 10:17 AM agree

sortini lands the only actual clean punch, so he gets the win

Posted by Towmater on Apr 02, 2009 at 9:21 AM agree

HUGGYBEAR.....look at from the 40 second mark till about 50, Parros is literally trying to pry Stortini off so they can fight like men, when he finally gets him off then Stortini falls down.

Stortini holding on for dear life. ****in' seatbelt

win Stortini

Posted by berlzbro on Apr 02, 2009 at 2:46 PM agree

Slight advantage to Parros. Stortini got in more punches but Turtled at the end. Big George wins it on endurance.
