The statement that David Heath showed a mugshot picture of Babalu or "wore a t-shirt with his mugshot" is entirely hearsay. David Heath was wearing a Warrior Wear T-shirt at the weigh ins. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Whitoflaven (talk • contribs) 23:09, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

Fight Record Ordering

Is there a reason Babalu's fights are ordered from oldest to newest, top to bottom, which is the opposite of how most Wikipedia MMA fighters' records are ordered? (such as Chuck Liddell, Randy Couture, Matt Hughes)

The Choke

It states that "Sobral held the choke for 5 seconds more after the fighter tapped out" in reference to his fight at UFC 74 against David Heath. There is a bit of debate over how long it was held past the tap, and the general consensus is from 2 to 4 seconds. I've not seen 5 seconds mentioned anywhere, and timing it with a stopwatch, I could only come CLOSE to 4 seconds starting from the very first tap, to when it was released, an honest timing of it hovers around 3 seconds, give or take a quarter of a second. 5 seconds is a bit out there, I think it would be more unbiased to say "around 3 seconds", maybe with a caveat that it is argued as low as 2 and as much as 4 seconds. To put 5 seconds out there as fact is, well, untruthful. 65.74.122.29 00:39, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the "other disciplinary action" mentioned in the article, Meltzer is reporting today that UFC has cut him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.95.176.210 (talk) 18:08, August 30, 2007 (UTC)
