I have Franklin for the KO in the first round with a left cross on the button, If it goes round 2 (&it wont) Franklin rear naked choke

Hopefully this will get some of you kids interested


[video: www.youtube.com]

Yeah it's a pretty good card isn't? But agreed, Franklin wins that one easy

Hopefully this will get some of you kids interested

nope, highlights are good but actual fights are mostly spent with the dudes rolling around on the floor.

And here I was thinking that kind of thing would appeal to you.

 

I'm actually more interested in the Affliction card to be honest. Fedor vs Arlovski should be brutal.

No they aren't.

oh wow, when is that? Fedor is just an animal

Have you watched MMA with someone who knows about Jui jit su? It helps if someone is there to explain whats going on

 I find having a ninja around enhances most tv shows tbh.

oh wow, when is that? Fedor is just an animal

Isn't he just. Love the way he comes out to the ring. No emotion what so ever. Just looks like he's there to kill someone then bail.

It's January 24, so would probably be on Main Event on the 25th here.

Honestly I rank Fedor up there with the likes of Anderson Silva, the guy is amazing. IMO Fedor and Arlovski are the two best heavyweights in the world. Should be an awesome fight.

yeah I definitely rate him with Silva, and he's probably my fave guy to watch. He's brutal and like you said, totally emotionless. I remember him fighting this massive 300 pound plus Brazillian who was talking about knocking Fedor out in the first round. Dude had won over 300 fights in Brazil. Fedor knocked him out in around 9 seconds

Fedor knocked him out in around 9 seconds

I remember watching highlights of fights where it looks like he is on the brink of being knocked out himself, only to just start mercilessly beating his opponent into a stupor until it's over. It just seems that no matter how fucked he may be, he is always capable of pulling through for the win.

Fedor is the man no doubt so well rounded. Will he ever fight in the UFC?

Last UFC was a mass of upsets for me. Rampage beat Silva , Rashad beat Forrest and Mir beat Noguera

looking forward to 93...

oh shit!!!

Fedor is the man no doubt so well rounded. Will he ever fight in the UFC?

The contract Dana White will present to Fedor will ensure he cannot leave the UFC undefeated, which is why we may never see him there.

Dana says Fedor isn't the best P4P fighter in the world, Dana cant say ANY of his fighters are P4P the best in the world until Fedor joins the UFC and destroys everyone in it.

I'm also hanging for the GSP & BJ Penn rematch. Gonna be an awesome fight...I'm backing GSP.

The contract Dana White will present to Fedor will ensure he cannot leave the UFC undefeated, which is why we may never see him there.

how so?

how so?

As I understood it when I read the story on Sherdog or Fiveouncesofpain (or wherever it was)...UFC contract stipulated that Fedor could not fight in any other org other than UFC - fair enough, but this included his Sambo tournaments in Russia, which he has fought in since he was a kid. The contract also included a "Champions clause" whereby Fedor couldn't leave the UFC undefeated. Basically a never ending contract of fights if Fedor beats everyone the UFC throws at him.

To be fair, Fedor's management didn't have very reasonable demands either...they wanted stupid money, almost on par with boxing as far as I know.

ak ok. Yeah i knew about the Sambo stuff. I think with Pride he had a clause that allowed him to fight any fight that was in his home country, allowing him to do the Sambo stuff

Personally, do i think he'd go undefeated? No, it only takes one punch. Someone would hand to land one eventually. However, I think in general, he'd make a mess of the UFC

When did his Pride contact finish?

When did his Pride contact finish?

I don't keep up with Pride at all but i do believe Zuffa (UFC) purchased Pride then killed it off   

yeah pretty sure he's basically just a free agent now

I don't keep up with Pride at all but i do believe Zuffa (UFC) purchased Pride then killed it off   

Yeah they did good way to get rid of the competition. I was just curious if he was still signed to Pride when the takeover happened and if there were any contacts carried over??

Personally, do i think he'd go undefeated? No, it only takes one punch. Someone would hand to land one eventually. However, I think in general, he'd make a mess of the UFC

Definitely would make a mess of it. Honestly I can't think of anybody who could beat him. He just seems too tough and obviously technique wise he can't be faulted.

Yeah they did good way to get rid of the competition.

Somewhere in MMA weekly they post the fighter payments from each show as they must be declared thru the Las Vegas gaming commission

Its pretty bad that Zuffa killed off Pride because most of the fighters get less than 10K for a win & its only the headliners making real money   

If Affliction dies - which it probably will given how poorly the PPV & ticket buys are - and negotiations with the UFC fail, I guess Dream is the only place Fedor can go to fight MMA. A fight with Barnett would be a good match for Fedor. Alistair Overeem as well, although he is close to signing with the UFC as well I read. Dunno how he will pass the juice tests though, dude is jacked!

Coleman V shogun was a non event.

One fighter gasses, stands square on in front of the other guy who just had nothing on his feet! just kick him in the face already!

Can NOT believe it was a split decision on Franklin V Hendo! what a horrible way to lose/win a fight

Watching Franklin look at the screens after round one was a ROFL moment "O wow that's a good one"

lol Fedor won with a big over hand right at about the 2 min mark of round 1


animal

I've only recently started watching UFC fights and the aussie CFC fights. The Aussie level didn't look very professional. Is there much of a following and how would one go about getting involved or participating. Do different fight clubs compete or what?

Ihow would one go about getting involved or participating. Do different fight clubs compete or what?

Theres a few options.

You can start by studying one style & get really good at that. Say Thai boxing or Jiu jit su. & just work on getting a feel for getting hit & timing etc

Or you can go to a MMA club, there is a few around Adelaide. I can hunt down some contacts if you like.

In Adelaide we have Kickboxing ( knees of fury are the big one) or San Chu ( Kick boxing with take downs) & i know theres some Jui jit su shows & Judo etc

Australia is still a bit behind on all out MMA shows. Some fucktard politician put an end to MMA in Melbourne but im not sure where they are at in Sydney.

So to cut a long story short you can train in Adelaide. but if you wana jump in a cage you have to go interstate ( I have to do the same with Power lifting )

Was probably pretty lucky he did land that punch though. Have never really seen Fedor having to back away like that before.

true. Was never really in trouble though. Opponent made a big mistake, Fedor jumped on it. Game over.

gsp vs penn should be a cracker ! nate diaz fite should be one to watch also !!!
 ps chuck vs wand would of been ufc's most hyped fight people were waiting over 5yrs for that !

Man GSP destroyed Penn! I can't believe how much punishment BJ took! Many are calling GSP the greatest of all time after such a dominant performance

Fuck, lost $250 on Penn... I gotta stop betting on this shit, I dropped $250 on Couture and on Badr Hari...

Shouldn't have bet on Penn, beat with the heart, not the head. 170 is too much for him I reckon, I watched his training and he tried to bulk up, but at the weigh in he was a pudgy 168 His record is actually 3-1 @ 170lb, definate 155 GOAT though. GSP is a fucking beast at 170, I've never seen anyone in any sport cut that much weight and still be such a cardio machine.

Machida fight was good, I think he'll take out Silva if they give him a chance.

Arlovski, close but no cigar.... He should have listen to Freddy Roach and just kept up the orthodox marquee of queensbury approach, he was countering Fedors looping punches quite deftly but no he got cocky and sloppy and took a dirt nap.

GSP was amazing the other night, destroyed Penn

If you're serious or just want to learn from the best straight away head to http://www.braziliantopteam.com/australia/Photos_BTT_Australia/BTT_Australia.html the Adelaide/Australian branch of http://www.braziliantopteam.com/

Pretty much one of the top 3-5 MMA/BJJ academys in the world, a host of Pride/UFC/ADCC champions have come from there and the great thing about BJJ is that you always trace your instructors lineage back to the source (A Gracie or Machado).

In the case of Adelaide:

Gustavo Toledo > Murilo Bustamante > Carlson Gracie > Helio Gracie

That's pretty solid credentials given that Bustamante was an Open weight UFC champion (before they had weight classes, this guy is ~75kg BTW) and a Pride MW Grand Prix champion.

Check this piece of Arlovski gold:
FFW >> to ~ 2:00mins - The interviewer asks him how he feels about his next opponent (Tim Silva then UFC HW Champ) dating his ex.
[video: www.youtube.com]

And then:
The reporter later speaks to aforementioned "ex" and new squeeze, relaying Arlovski's sentiments.
[video: www.youtube.com]

Here's what Freddy Roach (one of Arloviski's trainers) had to say about Fedor:

Who said what now? lol

Wow BJ had given up by the start of round 4 (or he had a massive concussion )

Watch as GSP lands a jab, BJ just stands there didn't circle off or anything

Diego Sanchez will maul Big Daddy
Hardy should beat Markham
Maia v Sonnen has potential, Sonnen is a good enough wrestler to stay out of trouble with most BJJ guys but Maia is a fucking beast & I think it'll be a 1st round sub win for Maia
Nate and Josh will be too strong for their respective opponents IMO.

But forget those guys, this guy is the real deal...

UFC middleweight champion Anderson “The Spider” Silva returns to the Octagon on Saturday, April 18th to defend his crown against number one contender Thales Leites in the main event of UFC 97. The pound for pound king has already defended his title more times than anyone in UFC middleweight history and will battle Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt Leites - winner of five in a row.

Also featured in the UFC's return to Canada is the light heavyweight showdown fans have waited for years to see, as UFC legend Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell squares off against Brazilian superstar Mauricio "Shogun" Rua in what promises to be one of the most explosive bouts of 2009.

yeh it was dissapointing from a spectator point of view but It was painfully obvious that Silva is the better fighter. Thales wanted to take it to the ground as he is strong there. I would hardly have called him a real contender but up against the Spider who is?? Heard rumours of a possible GSP v SILVA match up. FIGHT OF THE DECADE.

Big up Chuck for also not giving up and continuing to step in the cage. Reckon that was his last fight though.

good to see Velasquez win again. Dude's an absolute beast

he was pretty lucky, kongo landed 3 or 4 that could have ended the fight easily but velasquez literally just beat him up on the ground.


thought the judges decision in the last fight to franklin was BS too. Silva was spewin.

he was pretty lucky, kongo landed 3 or 4 that could have ended the fight easily but velasquez literally just beat him up on the ground.

yup, that's what he does. Hasn't been fighting long. Was a wrestler in school but in his own words "It never felt right. I'd take em down and just want to hit em"


Kongo's a fkn good fighter too. Crazy reach

Still reckon a fit Frank Mir would beat either of them mercilessly.

Speaking of Mir, is he injured again or what? Isn't he supposed to fight Lesnar for the Heavyweight Championship?

Hmmm i don't about that. I reckon Velasquez could take him

Hell yes!

Lesnar vs Mir should be awesome, but the one I'm really looking forward too is GSP vs Alves. Obviously GSP is a great fighter and arguably the second best pound for pound after Silva (some say best), but Thiago Alves is an absolute pitbull. I think if Alves can catch GSP with one off guard and rock him, he'll be all over him like a cheap suit. Alves just has such explosive power for that weight class.

Fark.. it's on right now (bisping v henderson already, so on the the undercards have been on already)

Showtime/Fox have opted to main event the boxing.... So I guess us aussies have no alternative but to stram it via the web!

God bless JustinTV & Sopcast/TVU

Hmmmm... you would think Bisping would have studied the tapes and realised Henderson only has one KO punch, the O/H Right.. After all they were opposing coaches on TUF 9 yeah?

TORRENT IS OUT NOW!

ok so i watched the Lesnar Mir fight, and it left me wondering-who the fuck is going to beat Lesnar?! He treated Mir like a fkn school kid. Even had a go at him after the fight had finished ffs! This photo of them at the start speaks volumes




he's an absolute behemoth. A Fedor, Lesnar fight would be off the chains

That was always going to be the issue with Lesnar. The guy is just too big but not only that, has absolutely no business moving as fast as he does. Was only a matter of time before he learnt how to fight I suppose. The shit thing is, is I think Mir was probably the best equipped in the UFC to beat him.

Lesnar is a giant no one but Fedor in the Heavyweights even looks like having a shot unless they pull out a submission.

Forrest Griffen v Anderson Silva incoming next month oooooohh yeh

GSP is the man. I reckon he would have to be on par with the best there is.

bring it on.

GSP is the man. I reckon he would have to be on par with the best there is.

thats the thing. WTF does anyone do, once Lesnar is on top of them? You're fucked

and agreed on GSP. Pound for pound, he's top 3 in the world no doubt. He's great at everything, and is probably the smartest fighter going round

So awesome. If Fedor loses I will probably cry. If Fedor wins, it's bye bye heavyweight UFC championship for everybody until Fedor decides to leave.

lesnar is such a animal. just didnt let mir get any control on the fight at all.

the st pierre fight was awesome aswell, i think gsp needs to go up weight, to dominant at 170

what a knock out in henderson v bisping too, got hit hard

GSP so technically better than anyone ive seen so far i reckon. he dominanted him.

That Anderson Silva's not half bad:P

ill choke him out.

 Me last night watching the UFC.

 drew walks in, 'You seen Mir vs Lesnar yet?'

 me 'No'

 Drew ' You know who won?'

 me 'No dont tell me'

 Drew 'Alright. Lesnar is massive hey. No-ones ever going to beat him'

 Me

 

lol, yeah i realised that after i said it, thought it might have slid past unnoticed.

You could see that right coming the whole fight and then when it actually connected......... knocked the fuck out!

Huge hit.

the finisher after was awesome. it just screamed "shut your fucking mouth"

haha yea bisping was out cold but henderson landed another one for good measure

few good personal feud's for the fights on 100

Lesnar will get dropped by the 1st sprawl & brawl type that he faces (the UFC won't let this happen though, he is their cash cow and they'll protect him as much as they can), I reckon Shane Carwin might be able to do it, but anyway the UFC's HW div. is pretty damn weak...

GSP won't get beaten again @ 170 IMO. He's so fucking big @ 170 and is too well rounded in all aspects of the game. He needs to fight Silva @ 185 or a catch weight in between somewhere. (I reckon he'd fuck Silva up though, I think Silva is overrated)


On another note, the K-1 Max (under 70kg) finals were on.


Some pretty good fights. My money is on Buakaw, unless the Japs rig it (which is more than likely...)

I think next year they're going to invite Yodsanklai (Contender Asia winner) which would be sick:

Can't wait for Silva vs Griffen. If anybody is going to be able to take the pounding Silva can throw out, it's Griffen. Still reckon Silva will win though.

Strikeforce is also pretty soon, on August 15, 2009.
Pretty decent card:

Renato Babalu Sobral v Gegard Mousassi
Nick Diaz v Jay Heiron
Miguel Torres v Brian Bowles

And the co-main-event, Womans MMA title fight:

Beauty vs the Beast

Gina Carano v Cris Cyborg Santos


Beauty:





Beast:





Poor Gina lol.

Should be a "Battle Of The Sexes" fight IMO.

UFC 101 in 30Min

 

Lets av it.

Gina is hot. She can submit me anytime

Silva just cained Griffin

holy fuck...

ya gotta see silva v griffin.

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xa3vzi_anderson-silva-forrest-griffin_sport

silva was just toying with griffin

i couldnt believe my eye's

Good to see the aussie win his lightweight debut on ufc

kimora's would fkn hurt

Especially the way he yanked on that arm. Fuck he was awesome on the ground.

BJ owned Kenny Florian. Not sure what happened to Forrest but Anderson Silva made him look like a girl.

Someone told me about Yahoo sports providing a live stream for mma events here in Aust and I got a bit excited.

I went to check it out and saw:

    * $44.95 gets you the live event plus 24 hours of unlimited archive viewing

Anyone else think thats pretty rich? Isn't that around the same figure of what you pay Foxtel for mainevent?

I think that price was US$ too.... gh3y

foxtel costs $35

ok so i just watched the Silva Griffin fight....

My Fucking God


Hands down, and dodging Forests punches seemingly before they were thrown! The knocks him out while walking fkn backwards!


Amazing

Griffen dropped like a little bitch.

Totally embarrassed by Silva.

I dare say most people who aren't Forrest Griffen would have been knocked out already by that stage.

lol very true. He'd been rocked twice already. Most wouldn't have gotten up after that 2nd one

It's scary that Silva, who moved up a weight division, beat Forrest that easily though. He is going to make everyone in light heavyweight his bitch.

would love to see Silva drop, to fight a heavier GSP

that would be fkn sick

That would be special. Silva is no slouch on the ground and thats where the fight would take place i reckon.

Both are BJJ Blackbelts. I think GSP might struggle with Silvas size, regardless of weight. He'd have to be at least a few inches taller. It's definitely something I want to find out for sure though!

true, but GSP is prolly the smartest fighter in the world right now so Im sure he'd work around it

Strikeforce in 15mins:

Mitsuhiro Ishida vs. Gilbert Melendez
Cristiane Santos vs. Gina Carano
Mike Cook vs. Scott Lighty
James Terry vs. Zak Bucia
Mike Cook vs. Scott Lightly
Renato Sobral vs. Gegard Mousasi
Jay Hieron vs. Nick Diaz
Mike Kyle vs. Fabricio Werdum
Isaiah Hill vs. Alexander Trevino
David Douglas vs. Justin Wilcox

 Wow Silva destroyed Griffin. Was awesome to see him toy with him.

bit like when we fought online the other night

cunts 

UFC 106: Carwin v Lesnar
v


Bit of a joke really....

Dan White CEO of the UFC says Fedor is dodging "top competition" by not signing exclusively to the UFC...

So OK... The UFC HW Champ, has a record of 3 - 1 and the top contender/challenger Carwin has a 11 - 0 record. (All his opponents were totally shit, only 3 of the 11 still have contracts with the UFC. He's only beaten ONE top flight heavyweight and that was one punch that was against the flow of play really)

And this amounts to Fedor ducking "top competition"? LOL

UFCs HW division is weak as, especially compared to the other divisions.

Anyhow, I hope Carwin pounds Brocks head in... Doubt it will happen though, Carwin is like a B-Grade Lesnar in every department really...

Well, that should last all of about 90 seconds.

 Why is Ben Stiller fighting Brock Lesnar?

 

look at the size of lesnars forearms!

Lesnar is a giant but Carwin can hit. His and anyone that fights Brock's biggest worry is the take down. Once he gets you down its all over.

How hot is Arianni.... 

forearms? I thought they were 2nd biceps

Haha seriously, they're the same fkn size as Carwins anyway.

UFC 102 COUTURE vs NOGUEIRA - Aug-29-2009

Matchups (My picks in bold):
Randy Couture (No. 6 HW) vs. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira(No. 5 HW)
Keith Jardine (No. 9 LHW) vs. Thiago Silva
Chris Leben vs. Jake Rosholt
Nate Marquardt (No. 3 MW) vs. Demian Maia (No. 5 MW)
Brandon Vera vs. Krzysztof Soszynski
Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Chris Tuchscherer
Ed Herman vs. Aaron Simpson
Michael Russow vs. Justin McCully
Todd Duffee vs. Tim Hague
Mark Munoz vs. Nick Catone
Marcus Aurelio vs. Evan Dunham

Couture v Nogueira would have been great 5 - 10 years ago... Couture is like > 45yrs old and even though Nogueira is only 33 he's taken a pummeling over the years.
I reckon Randy will take it, he take down and submission defense is too good to get caught by Nog. His "dirty boxing" and clinch work will negate Nogueiras somewhat overrated boxing skills, and when it hits the ground I think Randy will be able to keep dominate position while avoiding sweeps and subs and either lay and pray or ground and pound his way to a boring decision. That being said I'd really like Nog to win, cos I think he has a real chance to beat Lesnar (much like he did Sapp:) [video: www.youtube.com]

Silva v Jardine will be a cracker-jack standup battle with Jardine ending up on the wrong end of a highlight reel KO (ala: Jardine v Wanderlei Silva): [video: www.youtube.com]

Marquadt v Maia will be interesting. Both are BJJ black belts (Maia is world champ though), Nates standup is much better but I don't think Nate will be able to keep it standing and when it hits the ground the difference in BJJ skills will be too great and Maia will sub him by R2 [video: www.youtube.com]

Brandon Vera is going to Muay Thai the shit outa Soszynski, and Gonzaga will be way too much for Tuchscherer, Marcus Aurelio is much better than his UFC record will lead many to belive and he'll sub Evan Dunham with his BJJ

Chris Leben should win his return fight after steroid suspension, the UFC love this clown he has a following with TUFers and rednecks so the UFC will feed him cans to keep viewership and PPV numbers ticking over.

A lighter side of Anderson Silva:

UFC 102 COUTURE vs NOGUEIRA - ON NOW (live):

Some Results (Winners in Bold):

Brandon Vera vs. Krzysztof Soszynski - R3 U. Decision
Nate Marquardt vs. Demian Maia - R1 KO
Chris Leben vs. Jake Rosholt - R3 arm triangle/darce choke submission
Todd Duffee vs. Tim Hague - R1 KO (UFC record time - 7 seconds. Guy was in his UFC debut)
Keith Jardine vs. Thiago Silva - R1 KO
Randy Couture  vs. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira - R3 U. Decision

Roy Jones Jr still looks alright for an old man, this was earlier this month:

[video: www.youtube.com]

Silva may slip and weave MMA strikes but RJJ would would still knock him cold I reckon.

Pretty sick handspeed...

Danny Green is gonna get KTFO in November... If he couldn't handle Mundine, he has a snowballs chance in hell of even being able to hold Roys jockstrap.

agreed. If Silva tries the same shit against RJJ as he did Griffen, he'll be on the floor unconscious quicker than he thought possible

Jones will knock Silva the fuck out in a pure boxing match I reckon. I dare say all UFC guys would get absolutely destroyed in a boxing match by a boxer of that level. It's just not what MMA is about.

Yeah... Pretty much.
There are a couple of ex-pro/olympic  boxers in MMA: Ray Mercer and Yosuke Nishijima
Both were World Champions in boxing, Mercer has done OK, losing to Kimbo and then smashing Tim Sylvia, Nishijima had a 24-2 record as a welterweight and was World Champion as well but he has lost every single MMA match pretty badly (even one to another MMA debutant Mark Hunt) and got TKO'ed by a leg kick when he tried his hand at K-1.

The main difference is striking distance I think. In MMA strikers will throw fewer strikes and avoid large combos or flurrying as it opens you up to a take down which they obviously don't want. 

Also the distance is also different, in MMA your either at max reach (to avoid the clinch/takedown) or playing dirty boxing (clinch boxing).

In boxing though the strike range is max to medium with the clinch being a nullifying move so RJJ would be throwing strikes at a distance much closer to Silva than he is accustomed to.

That aside I dare say No one in MMA has or will ever have the handspeed or power of RJJ

The best pound for pound fighter in our lifetime IMO, if you don't agree...Y'all musta forgot!:

[video: www.youtube.com]

[video: www.youtube.com]

Actually, I take that back... I reckon Pernell Whittaker was the best P4P ever. Check his sick ass defensive skills (from 2min onwards) and try tell me that boxing isn't the sweet science:

[video: www.youtube.com]

And look who he is fighting.... Oscar De La Hoya, Felix Trinidad, Julio Cesar Chavez, Roger Mayweather, Azumah Nelson the best of the best and he made them look like bums...


Slipping and dodging a 9 punch combo from a prime Oscar De La Hoya??? Are you fucking serious? LOL

Gotta say-I enjoy reading ya posts in here man. You certainly know ya shit. Nice one

Watched 102 Today

There were some great under card fights, Alot of talent in the up & coming ranks.

Captain America & Nougeria was wicked battle, Nougeria def was back at 100% physical condition for this fight.

I dont know if he could beat Brock though in a fight for the title.

Rosholt's Choke submission was nuts aswell, Leben's arm pinned over his head 7 getting choked out.

& the Mardquart, Duffee KO's were nuts aswell.

Overall thought 102 was better then 101

  i thought the same thing steve

is Scotty involved in this at all?

Anyone catch Silva v Sonnen? great fight, Sonnen certantly backed up what he said before the fight.

check out the face on this poor cunt after being knocked out

[video: www.youtube.com]

yep me and drew found that on the youtube-athon. brutal!

looks like a fkn zombie!

we've all been there on some smudgy sundays i reckon

he's "Got the Noddies"

looks like he was shuttin down windows after that kick.....

 

watched Lesner and Cotoure last night. Was backing Randy so was disappointed he went down but fuck Lesner is massive!!

he is. Tho that didnt help against Valesquez lol

lol havent watched that yet

my 2 fave (UFC) heavyweights. Not the result i expected

i watched this last night, never really had as i just got a set top box

i reckon lesnar was even bigger when he was on wwe

Lesner just gives me a real creepy feeling
how tall is he? he looks fuckin massive


i never saw him as a wrestler. dont really get into it

see thats one of the things i love about him lol

Wow, Pacquiao destroyed Margarito. It went the distance but he didn't lose a round from the get go and turned the guys face into mincemeat.

Can anyone stop him?

So keen to see him fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. if it ever happens.

Here's a pic of Margarito. May be NSFW lol.

124 was great. one of the best ive seen for quite some time!




*chants* GSP GSP GSP GSP


i reckon he would even beat peachey

Late reply mate but yeah scotty was involed.

Chop shop was supposed to have 2 guys fight but Curt was crook as fuck and scott pulled him out at the last minute much to his disgust. Mike fought in modified san shou rules and lost a bullshit decision even though he took the other guy down about 20 times in 6 minutes! he has another fight soon for a rematch and shot at the state title.

Should be some more mma fights in early march pretty sure Mike and curt will both be fighting with maybe another guy from our place too.

On another note gsp owned koscheck a few weeks back so awesome to see himget his face caved in! 126 has some kiler fights too jones jr vs Bader should be carzy!

Is anyone here watching Tuf? Terry and I have been given 5 back seasons of it. It shows people like Chris Leben and Stephan Bonnar coming up and how they started out.

We're up to season 2 now, with the likes of Rashad Evans in it. Yes, I know we have a while to go!

the new one should be REAL interesting to watch, with Lesnar being one of the coaches lol

yeah its a gold mine for the ufc so many fighters end up on the roster- Leben, Bonner, Griffen, Swick & Florian all out of S1 

Serious! Definitely have to watch that!

So you like UFC, cooking and beer? It's a shame you're married.


He's a wicked wrestler, it's just a shame you can't teach the skill of huge bastard.

Watched em all from season 1, some good some bad but overall a great show.

Looking forward to Belfort v Silva Sunday just quietly.

He may be a huge bastard, but he's fucking fast! It still blows my mind to see how quick he can move, for the bulk he carries.

what a fkn kick!

I know, it was over in a flash. John Jones looked good though.

apparently from now on andersons opponents get to use weapons.....


whos he gonna fight now??

they may as well just put him on ice until he can fight GSP lol

Rumor has it if Gsp beats shields he'll vacate the welterweight title and go to middleweight to fight Silva but i'll believe it when i see it!

whats the difference in weight? Is it a big jump?

Welterweight: 156 to 170 lb (71 to 77 kg)
Middleweight: 171 to 185 lb (78 to 84 kg)

Trouble is Silva is a BIG Middleweight

I can't see it happening but it would be one for the ages.

I could put that on in a week if i really applied myself.

So many pies

 Yeah but you wouldn't have to fight Anderson Silva* at the end of that week.

 





 *Your opponent would be atherosclerosis

I could. But numerous records would be broken

  pies

Those are weights they need to make at weigh in. They are normally a heap heavier again by the time they fight if they had to trim down.

Comes back to how much it stresses the body out. I have heard Silva rarely has to cut weight and walks around at pretty much the same weight all the time (BIG ADVANTAGE) He is also just a fucking freak!

EDIT - GSP v Jake Shields will be GSP's toughest title defense to date I reckon. Should be a banger.

FTFY.

Yeah Silva wals around at between 195 and 200 so is cutting about 10 pound Gsp is never over 180 he's always been against cutting heaps of weight he thinks its bad for his boday and wants to have a long career!


Personally i can't see shields being much of a threat at all I think Gsp will dominate him as he did Koscheck and all the others before him!

Oh man... that kick. Just comes out of fkn nowhere.

I was hoping nobody had posted the result of Saturday's Sydney fight... and I won't be checking here again till i see if Sotoropoulous won! Hurry up and DL, fight!

He lost

BAHAHAHA, spoil sport!

Yeah spewing... His jits game was a bit one dimensional, tried no variations in his take downs and Siver just nullified his boxing skills with his kicking.

On the up side though, it looks like G Sot has a decent chin, took some decent shots.

Exactly my thoughts some of those shots were solid and he took all of them, I don't think edgar or maynard hit anywhere near that hard but I was still really suprised he couldn't take him down at all Siever fought really well! Gona be a long road back to a title shot for Soto now though he needs a couple of big wins this year!

The undercard fights were probably better than the main card in the end there were a couple of awesome fights!

Highlights of my day was starting the bisbings a wanker chant and then Troy's bisbings a legend chant drawing crickets from the crowd haha

Bring on next year already i'm saving for ringside!

Machida  and the lump on the guys head that Aldo fought made 129 a great card IMO.

Machida  and the lump on the guys head that Aldo fought made 129 a great card IMO.

Machida hardly deserves props for beating a 47 year old at the end of his career.

Both Aldo and Harmonick are warriors BEST fight by far.. That weight class is stacked with crazy fighters.

Jake Shields didnt really impress me and GSP obviously had a problem seeing..

This is epic.

[video: www.youtube.com]

I'm so behind in my UFC. I've only just watched the one where Jones becomes the light heavyweight champion.

Tito got what he deserved on the weekend and belfort made a big statement!

Matt hamill also got pounded into retirement so i heard this morning!

Some good fights yesterday the Brazilian's dominated at home 8-1 of the 9 that fought!

I seriously don't know who they can put in front of silva he demolished and Okami and embarresed him in the process.
Standing there with his chin stuck out hands at his sides daring Yushin to step in and hit him then dropping him at will with straight right hands he is a freak!

Sonnen Re-match or GSP Superfight!! or silva goes up weight to face johnny bones jones

jones v silva is a fight id like to see bad

Sonnen Re-match or GSP Superfight!! or silva goes up weight to face johnny bones jones

jones v silva is a fight id like to see bad

He said he won't fight Jones it would be stupid for him to do so and i think their mates, Sonnen is tipped to get the rematch if he wins his next fight!

oh man, Jones is a fkn animal

he clearly is on another level. that reach is his biggest advantage by far

First time Rampage had been submitted in his career! Jones is ridiculous good luckto Rashad he's gona get smashed!

Press confrence afterwards was golden!

I didn't see the game (thanks to a hung over husband who didn't feel like moving from the house to the pub to watch it) but I saw the pre-game doco. Jones was talking up his training and they were generally painting him in a great light, Rampage came off like an arrogant dick!

136 was off the hook so many good prelims and that Edgar VS Maynard fight was intense i was out of my seat for all 4 rounds!

So good to see Edgar win after copping another first round flogging that dude has got Heart and then some.

Sonnen demolishing Stann should set up that rematch with Anderson, Intresting he stated if Silva beats him he'll walk away from the ufc for good!

Kimbo Slice's boxing career so far...

[video: www.youtube.com]
[video: www.youtube.com]

Impressive I guess, but he doesn't really move at all...he'll be in trouble when he fights someone decent.

Gsp injured and out of 137 dam I was looking forward to Condit giving him a run for his money!

Shogun VS Henderson this weekend should be sick!

Few other good fights on the way! Jones should smash Machida at 140!

Gsp VS Diaz and Silva VS Sonnen, I reckon both belts will change hands for the first time in years!

WOW great fights from 139!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

139 was sick!
 
Cung lee and Wanderlai and Shogun Vs Henderson were both insane, All the prelims and the main card were good fight's too best card in a while!

how was lees nose, my god that is the biggest broken nose ive seen i reckon!!

I love Kimbo Slice, he's one mean looking mofo but he's actually a lovely person, going off what I saw on TUF. He likes to garden.

Anyway, Bones Jones fight this Sunday! Hello! And has anyone else noticed that One has started playing the fights the day after they happen? So if you can't watch this weekend's one (Like I can't as I'll be on a plane) you can watch it on monday! Hooray! Love Jones, he's like a spider monkey who will knock your head off.

Kimbo is a joke he got cut ages ago

I don't think One hd are playing the main card they generally just play a few prelims live then repeat them during the week at some stage, Normally a weeknight at some ridiculous time of morning.

Jones should walkover Machida this weekend but you never know Lyoto could just land something and he won't go charging at Bones either he'll lay back and try to counter attack(Good luck with that i say), Looking forward to the Frank Mir Vs Big Nog rematch a loss will cost Mir bigtime.

My Predictions

Jones will smash Machida

Mini Nog will smash Tito

Mir will smash Big Nog

Big Nog's arm getting popped out, damnnnnnnn.

Machida was put well to sleep too, he seemed to have jones on the back foot which was good to see but jones is just a freak.

One of the most epic ufc's I've seen. Mir what an animal! Oh and lol @ jones just dropping machida after putting him to sleep.

Clash of the giants is about to begin! What a couple of monsters!

Gotta love streaming sports...

Edit: Wow...disappointing.
