You do realize that fight was more than a year ago, right? And the Silva fight isn't until early 2011 meaning Belfort will have been inactive for...
Agree 100%. He beat Franklin at a catchweight. And Belfort is yet to ACTUALLY fight at 185 pounds. People overlook that fact like it's...
Who the hell knows how Belfort will look at 185 now. The guy beats Rich Franklin at a catch weight and now he's challenging for the title in a...
The thing that impressed me the most about JDS is him stuffing Nelson's takedowns with ease. Nelson isn't a world class wrestler but he can take...
So you honestly think Overeem would stop Lesnar from taking him down within 30 seconds. I don't. People look at Lesnar's fight with Carwin and...
I don't know how people can pick Rogers to beat Cro-Cop. Even a diminished Mirko can beat the Rogers that curled up against Overeem.
Honestly I don't know the real answer. When Holmes challenged Norton for the belt, Norton was introduced first as well. There were death threats...
Damn I'm good. That was my immediate thought when I saw this. I have no problem with the move, but I'm glad UFC 122 is free on Spike because it...
Holmes-Cooney In retrospect many fans tend to categorize this as a lopsided Holmes beatdown. It really wasn't. Watching it live, Cooney's...
Agreed, but until the Lesnar fight we didn't know that he went from being a destructive force in the 1st to a daisy in the 2nd.
I think it also proves or at least make you question a couple of other things: 1) Brock doesn't react well when hit. 2) Brock is learning as he...
I just can't see Werdum subbing Lesnar at this point. I think the Mir loss taught Brock alot about what can happen when he doesn't control...
I don't know about Silva's enormously over-size chin holding up. He was rocked and stopped by Eric Pele. It was a BS fight with restarts, a break...
I don't think Overeem has a shot in hell of stopping Lesnar from taking him down. Once it hits the ground, it stays there until it's over or Brock...
If they're using them illegally now, wouldn't it be safer if legal and regulated?
You do realize that Royce got much, much bigger guys than Holyfield to the mat, right? In addition to bigger guys, he also got guys with far more...
Agree. The draw wasn't Okami versus someone. It was 100% about Belfort fighting at 185.
It looks like Marquardt will step in and fight Okami. I smell bullshit. I think the UFC pulled Belfort so he would be available to fight Silva in...
Brock Cain JDS Cro Cop Carwin Mir I think they are all bad matchups for the Strikeforce crew.
I agree about Diaz, but getting knocked out by Santos is kind of getting exposed. I think Santos is a much, much better fighter at 170 but he...
Personally I think Noons is heads and shoulders above Daley in terms of technical striking. I think Daley gets completely out classed and stopped...
Yeah, his loss is to Sonnen which is kind of the point of my post. But you make a good point. If Marquardt just learned how to juice without...
Yep, but I thought they reduced his suspension because he proved it was store bought stuff that caused his failure. I may have him mixed up with...
:lol::lol::lol: Orion said he was tested and considered a genius at 4.. so.....
The one real thing that makes me slow to accuse Brock is how big he stayed even while sick with the stomach issue. Sure he lose weight but it's...
And since, by your own proclamation, you've been watching MMA longer than most people can we accurately surmise that you are king of the idiots?
Great points. It's a risk/reward proposition anyway. Funny, but I bet many athletes would trade a shorter life for longer in the spotlight. Let...
Damn. I seriously need to go back and take some refresher Communications classes if my post made you think I said Brock is clean. I said he...
My single previous post in this thread holds 100% true. Steve_Dave when considering the rise in MMA's popularity: :Steve-Dave/MMA: You can...
Wow, I knew that would be the response as I typed his name. Trust me, I am not naive when it comes to Lesnar. That being said, he never failed a...
