I watched the fight at a sports bar last night and the place went crazy when Sonnen did that flip. The funniest part was Anderson just stood there...
Godfather's comment about Silva pulling out a Big Nog type submission reminded me of Sonnen describing how earning a black belt under the Nogueira...
And the truth is that none of what Sonnen said pre-fight ended up being hype. He took the fight to Silva. He made Silva work harder than he's had...
Ummm.. I like the premise of your post Mike but we can't forget that Silva won and is still champion, still on a UFC win streak that is unequaled,...
You're preaching to the choir. I would have given the nod to Young in that fight as well as the Ali and Norton fights. But I am biased....
LOL.. Me too. I don't see much changing in a rematch. Sonnen controls the fight but it's a 25 minute fight where Silva has many opportunities to...
Harold Ledderman kept talking about the areas in which judges score fights. Apparently he left out the credit given for punching your opponent's...
Healthy ribs or not, Silva wasn't going to stop Sonnen from taking him down. Period. Sonnen pressured Silva every inch or every round. Silva...
Unreal.... Sonnen had things go exactly as planned. He shouldn't have given up so easily. That was the same shit he pulled against Filho in their...
Jon Fitch is one of my favorites so I am taking him again. Is there anyone that doesn't want to see Roy Nelson win? I just love this big fat...
Not being able to finish Silva is my biggest fear with picking Sonnen. The idea of being in the cage with someone as dynamic as Silva for 25...
Ha..They will speed up the camera tomorrow night. You can believes that!!!
Regardless, Leben-Belfort would be a very fun striking war while it last. And if Vitor doesn't crack that chin, watch out. It amazes me the love...
I said it when it was first announced and I'll say it now, I like Chael Sonnen in this fight. Chael is the best wrestler Silva has EVER faced....
That's been discussed and most on here agree with you.
We are of exactly like minds on that one brother. I don't know what it is, but he is the MMA fighter I loathe the most.
Yeah there isn't a conspiracy. This is how Sonnen is. Of course it is louder and bolder now because it's a title fight against one of the P4P...
It's not creative use, it's a flat out stretching of the truth for the purposes of giving Young credit for holding his own against the best HW's...
Very true...
Boy you hit the nail on the head. The thing that always frustrated me as a fan of Young was how he often had lapses of doing nothing after periods...
Wow....This is a good match up. I can remember the beauty of Donald Curry's game with the sharp, accurate punches and his uncanny ability to...
Maybe.. But I've watched Leben for a long time and he seems like a much more dedicated fighter now. This is a different beast than we saw a couple...
Well, as I said, I liked Young. He was a little small; often looked flabby; and just had that underdog look. But I did think he did enough in...
To be fair to Young he was relatively inexperienced when he first fought Shavers. At that point Shavers was an animal. He was knocking out...
I love tournaments but I am not a huge fan of the Super 6 format. I would prefer 8 guys and single elimination.
To be honest with you, I don't know if anyone in the division outside of Silva should be a betting favorite against this version of the Crippler....
"I fight em all. Men, woman, children, retarded people....." The dude is tooo funny.
Personally I would favor Leben if the same version showed up that subbed Akiyama. And speaking of Akiyama, he loses to Leben and gets a main...
Leon Spinks... Without question.
Love it... Don't hit a girl with Huerta around.
