It's funny how fans of MMA don't constantly feel the need to drag down boxing threads. I just wish the same restraint would be shown here. Why...
Yeah, I said undefeated at 155. Obviously I meant 145. I agree with you about him being too small for 155. However, I think at 145, he can be...
Throw in as many smilies as you want. It doesn't change the fact that you used a shit analogy. And let's be perfectly honest. The UFC is the...
Again no debate from me about the merit of Kid Yamamoto. But while Yamamoto was on the shelf, Faber easily handled Jens Pulver. And maybe P4P...
Not much debate about that at all. Unfortunately this was NOT a Lifetime Achievement Top 5. It was a monthly P4P. Prior to losing to Brown,...
You've got 3 or 4 guys that will emerge from the house as solid UFC prospects. Personally I can't wait to see Vinny in against Krystoff. I'm...
Knees anytime. Obviously groin and back of the head would still be illegal.
Love how you slipped that reference in there. Trinidad fans should continue to thank god that Oscar didn't decide to try and win one more round.:lol:
Translation: The rise in popularity of MMA combined with a decline in boxing popularity scares me.
I'm shocked anyone responded to Ike on this one. The more he post, the more I realize he knows little about sports in general. His baseball...
The big difference is that Liddell-Silva will still be entertaining unlike watching a washed up Jones or a washed up Holyfield. And I still...
Unlike football, when it comes to MMA and Boxing I usually pick what I want to happen as opposed to what I think will happen. But, Silvs may be...
The only thing I pick worse than boxing is MMA (i.e. Stevenson over Florian, Silva over Fedor:doh:) So I cannot argue with your prediction. But...
It's disappointing but not unexpected to read this about Filho. It's really ashame that he hit the skids before getting some UFC exposure.
Entertaining matchup. And if Silva approaches Chuck like he approached Cote, it could be closer than most of you think.
Good point. It would have sucked to miss that uppercut by Stephens. Hell, the Matt Brown fight was a fun one to watch as well.
That should be a pretty good show. Smith and Martin should be a standing slugfest while it last.
Am I the only one that actually enjoyed the hell out of the fight card itself? Screw the "boxing is better" and "MMA is a joke" sentiment. Try...
I'm not slamming boxing. I'm being dead serious. I was so jacked from the Couture-Lesnar fight that Taylor-Lacy actually calmed me down a bit. :lol:
I thought Lesnar was the betting favorite? Nevertheless, I don't get how the outcome makes MMA look bad. The fight was what it was. Lesnar is...
Hmmmm. This is like reading between the lines.
and then claiming that he wasn't actually out. He was sleeping like a baby. :lol:
Is the hope that listing these fights will somehow diminish Calzaghe's accomplishments? I have hoped for years now that Calzaghe would meet a...
You and I have exactly the same take on last night's show. I thought Mir was an absolute dick for not trying harder to stop shots by Nog....
You are the man... :mj:
I was thinking along those lines. But man am I re-thinking things. Lesnar dropped Mir with a punch. He dropped Herring with a punch. The guy might...
I'd be OK with that too.
Exactly. Fedor's not an idiot. He's not going to approach Lennox Lewis the same way he approached Fujita. My guess is Fedor would, if faced...
:bears: My initial thought was, damn that chick looks tough.
I'm a big fan of Stevenson. Just can't pick against him. Don't push me on this one.
