im not gonna lie I at this badly [video=youtube;X0A3TBVdaLc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0A3TBVdaLc[/video] at the end when he shouts 'you running' cos it's kind of a ridiculous statement but still hilarious. all the people in the ww division that you thought weren't ass holes are exactly that and the one everyone claims to be one is the only interesting guy out of the bunch. I find that interesting. Hendricks is a prick on weidman levels. fucking wrestling jock assholes
For a guy that's retired, Diaz sure can't stay away. He's like a child mentally. His act is old and tired. He's not close to an elite fighter, he's not gonna talk himself into another title shot, and he just needs to go away already. TFK
How is he a prick? The man is super respectful and Humble. Why is he a prick, because he beat anderson?
This looks like the best card in a while. I'm picking Hendricks by knockout. I wouldn't be surprised to see Robbie get the win. It's funny, but I wouldn't give him much of a chance against GSP. His style might match up well with Hendricks. I'm picking Condit by KO in the later rounds. I don't expect him to run like in the Diaz fight. Condit always fights hard and goes for the finish except that one time. He looked like he was on the way to stopping Hendricks if that had been a 5 round fight. Lombard / Shields might be fun. Shields might make it boring, but I'm appreciating his grappling dominance more these days. Lombard is more fun to watch.
Fighters TALK Their Way Into PROMINENT UFC Bouts All the Time... Chael Sonnen, Cormier's Last Opponent...Woodley NAGGED Dana White Into Putting Him In Tonight's Co-Main...Gina Carano's MENTION of "Possibly" Returning Has White AND Ronda Rousey Entertaining the Idea of a CATCHWEIGHT, for that Bout... EVERY Sport Needs an ASSHOLE, a HEEL, a COUNTER-Culture Attraction...Nick Diaz IS That...Like it or Not, he'll Probably TALK his Way into @ Least 2 MORE High Profile Fights, Before it's All Said & Done... REED:hammert:
yeah but those guys have constant communication with Dana. Per Dana, Nick Diaz never calls him and hasnt spoke him in a while.
INSANE... Even if it DOESN'T Catch Up w/Hendricks Tonight, The DRASTIC Weight Cutting WILL @ Some Point...There's just NOfuckingWAY he Can Have Much of a FUTURE @ 170, Beyond Tonight... REED:hammert:
Damn this card has been so dull. It's a damn shame. Probably the best card on paper in a while and the fights have not panned out.
Yeah the Gastelum fight was the best so far and even that wasn't particularly good. I'm really crap at picking MMA fights. I was confident Sanchez and Condit would win.
Sanchez is just shot. Wasn't he a considerable underdog? I expected Condit to win but not at all surprised he lost, he somehow cannot defend a takedown even years after being in the top 10 in the UFC. I question whether or not he even trains it because he thinks he's going to submit everyone.
I agree Sanchez is shot, and I agree with the bolded line too. It's bizarre actually, I'd say Condit is a very, very good fighter. Really good offense, tall, rangy, tough, good power and stamina - yet he is just so easy to take down, its his achilles heel.
A terrible shame too given how exciting and unique of a fighter Condit can be when he's on. Now he's losing to guys that just lost to Jake Shields. It's pretty sad the WW division really has no credible contenders...they may as well pick a name out of a hat. No one is on a winning streak right now.
Hendricks is basically throwing arm punches because he knows whenever he attacks Robbie is just going to cover up and roll off the punches. Lawler can't really win this way but he won't get knocked out.
Hendricks basically needs to fold mentally to lose this fight now. Lawler found one big punch and did nothing with it because he's still way too afraid of Hendricks power. Pretty ridiculous. That's some weak shit.
