I really don't think so. Those Ceasar Gracie dudes seem extremely close. I can't think of another gym with that kind of bond. I honestly think...
And honestly if you're Daley, where does that leave you? Stand up power is your only MMA asset and you just got destroyed by a guy that CHOSE to...
Have you ever seen an MMA fighter recover so quickly from a big shot like Diaz from Daley's left hook? It's not like Daley didn't land the same...
Honestly I don't know how any fan of combat sports can not like Nick Diaz. The guy is just what fighting is all about. Look at some of the subtle...
And any boxing fan will tell you that once a chin is "cracked", it is never the same. Punching power doesn't disappear overnight.
To me it more underscores the need for more liberal use of 10-8 rounds or 10-10 rounds. The way MMA is scored today, that bout was clearly going...
I agree 100% that Jardine didn't do anything with the takedowns in Round 1 but they really did win him the round because Mousasi started very slow...
I wouldn't just assume that they can hold him down. I wonder if the knock on Diaz about only throwing pitty pat punches was quelled finally?...
Still too cautious and still unable to even accidentally stop a take down. I honestly don't think he belongs in anyone's top 10 list of 205...
I scored it a draw as well. Very simply I gave Jardine a two point round in the first. I thought he won the round with 4 take downs and got the...
Chin.
Something tells me the Zuffa boys give Diaz a bonus for ridding them of the sticky Paul Daley situation.
Well, like it or not folks, Nick Diaz is one of the top fighters in the division.
It is dude. I am right there with you on Aoki. Honestly some of his submission wins were amazing. But when TLC started calling him the best...
Man, that's a good question. I'm not sure. I think it honestly stems from TLC hyping him. In this case, it also has to do with me hoping Jardine...
As much as I love Bellator, I can't wait for the SF card. Seriously, depending on who you ask, there might be 4 of the top 20 fighters in the...
Yep sad. Next thing you know Vera will be fighting in Russia for a meaningless title against the most harmless fighter he can possibly find... And...
Busy night for the DVR---Bellator, Strikeforce, and boxing Main Card Welterweight Championship bout: Nick Diaz (c) vs. Paul Daley SUB 2...
You would make a far better judge than me. Obviously you are right. A lifetime ban for a first offense is probably too extreme. But tell me...
Well, I think the definition of durability is a pretty simple one. Not sure that being durable and dealing with adversity are synonymous.... Do...
I agree. For me, Strikeforce and Bellator have been more fun recently. By the way, make some picks JOM. It's just for fun.

It was fun speculating but Penn is off the UFC 132 card. I guess they couldn't find a suitable replacement. The card is average now.
My stance is absolutely the same on anyone that is caught or admits using banned substances to improve their performance, recover from an injury...
Agree with this. Then again, I can't think of a top HW today that isn't over 240. Big Nog is probably the only one, although he doesn't deserve...
Same page brother. JDS hasn't seen any take down attempts in the same universe as what Brock will bring.
Randy's chin was gone by the Nog fight. It wasn't completely one sided, but it was a clear win for Nog but Randy had some moments. But none of...
Well, at least he apologized to Brandon Vera. That's cool. He cheated and then badly broke Brandon Vera's nose to the point it was horribly...
Grosse Pointe Blank Love this move but it rarely gets mentioned. Great soundtrack as well.
I always thought it would distracting to fight Scott Jorgensen [IMG]
