This looks like a goodie. Is this free?



Posted by: BoneCrusher

FREEBIE



Posted by: ReproMan

I didn't know that Gabriel Gonzaga's full name is Gabriel Gonzaga-Nogueira a.k.a "Half-Nog."

This could get interesting.



Posted by: BigDyl

Gonzaga is no joke...

I haven't been too impressed by Silva. He seems too slow and target practice like to me. Off the top of my head I can only remember his fight against Sylvia and one more, but I remember not being impressed with him at all, besides his chin. We don't have to wait long to find out though

I'm leaning towards Silva because I have a better ground game than Kongo. That coupled with Silva's chin like you said, gives him the win IMO.

Yeah and its confusing the shit out of me. Morgan said its possibly being aired on Sunday too cuz its not Live and being "taped."

Spike is saying its on Sat, so thats all there is to it....right?



Posted by: BoneCrusher

I just copied the image location ... not the image content



Posted by: AKIRA

Well ok then. I made some preparations to be in time to watch it. Not 1 hour after I told my partner to cover, her bfriend's grandfather died. She didnt come in tonight because of it and shes been pissing and moaning about hours, so she better take advantage of the hours I have "given to her."



Posted by: BoneCrusher

That sux balls ...

Still shows as Saturday at 9 though. Where was the confusion?

They've been advertising it all week for 9PM April 21st on Spike, and that's what it says on UFC.com.

My local cable provider is saying Saturday at 9PM also.

UFC Video Center



Posted by: BoneCrusher

Here it shows as 8m Sat (click the date and set to Sat, then scroll down to channel 518) ... not seeing where the confusion is ReproBro ... .

The PPV shows in BK on Sun ... but we get the free live broadcast Sat night.

Did someone think it was Fri or Mon or something? Everything I've posted has been correct since it was all in the form of a linked image from UFC.com.

LOL, look at the banner in your signature. It says in the US April 22, Sunday.



Posted by: Goodfella9783

Hmm since the event is in the UK, wouldn't the U.S. be international ...fuck that banner!



Posted by: BoneCrusher

I can't even see it off of this pc ... I had access issues since last night and am barely up and running again. I need to reinstall my router now and get back on my laptop in the other room. BUT ... that is straight off of the UFC site. Check the properties from the image ... all UFC.

Not my bad. You're welcome to log in to my complaint department if you like... and file a grievance. I welcome your input.

I always use original imaging for the shit like this so I don't have issues like this ... but I still wind up with issues like this anyway. Follow me?

No ... if it only shows here and the parent company is here than it's not international until they actually show it AROUND the world on Sunday.

ROFL

Nobody's blaming you, and you can't see the image so that would explain it.

Everyone who hasn't read this thread thinks the fight is on Sunday night. That is all.

Posted by: BoneCrusher

I replaced the image with one that has the correct date and time on it. One would think that the UFC would get their advertising banners right since they are paying to have them all over the internet

AND added a few ad's ... hope people catch it.

This will be the first televised first run UFC main event I've watched since somewhere back in UFC 46 er so.



Posted by: NordicNacho

do you want to know who won



Posted by: Goodfella9783

Cheick Kongo:



I'm with Joe though. Dude needs some serious wrestling. Or at least some Chuck Liddell caliber take-down defense. His build is almost identical to Terrell Owens'.



Posted by: BoneCrusher

Yeah that was needed ... no ground skills in MMA= bad.

This next one looks interesting.



Posted by: BoneCrusher

Tall skinny bastard = sub victory. Duh. Good fight though. So far worth what we paid for it ...

Fuck THAT.

I feel sick.



Posted by: goandykid

Holy Shit!

Welcome to America/UFC Cro Cop. Hope the leg is alright.



Posted by: ReproMan

Wow.



Posted by: BoneCrusher

That was infugginsane to see.



Posted by: goandykid

I know. First Serra over GSP and now this. Wtf?



Posted by: goandykid

UFC > Pride even though it was somewhat of a fluke. I'm still going to say it.



Posted by: ReproMan

I don't even know what to say.

He just destroyed him.

Zags is the real deal. Wow.



Posted by: goandykid

No he isnt. Cro Cop is overrated.

Goandykid, stirring the pot?



Posted by: BoneCrusher

We've been lacking in quality appearances from the Brazilian fighters ... Gonzaga fixed that. I'm still stunned. Bam ... Cro Cop out cold before he even left the vertical plane.

Arlovski fought like Pitbull that just got neutered. WTF was that? And what was with Werdum's slaps? That killed too much time. We probably could've seen another fight. Arlovski had some good sponsors though "Condom Depot."

The UK had a pretty cool crowd. Not much booing, even during the Arlovski/Werdum bout they were trying to cheer them on.



Posted by: fufu

From the moment I saw cro cop's scruffy face I knew something was up.

FUCKING facial hair.

Crop Cop looked bored, unmotivated. I bet he underestimated everything.

They boo-ed the intros of the non UK-ers against Etin and Bisping. That is horrible.

That reminds me. Etin showed a lot of heart, great coemback. Pretty sloppy though, wish the American had won it.



Posted by: Goodfella9783

Yeah that was a pretty good fight.



Posted by: Fetusaurus Rex



That was an impressive kick too btw, Crocop probably thought he was looking in a mirror until the kick landed on his head and he felt the pain lol



Posted by: goandykid

Look at his leg on that fall



Posted by: Goodfella9783

Looks like he was expecting a low kick. I'm just happy Cro Cop is ok. Got up, walking, talking. Possibly a minor ankle injury. He's a tough dude. Could have been a lot worse.

He walked out under his own power. Can't be that bad. If it was an ACL tear or even a sprain he would have been carted.

At that time you were right too. It was produced and released much better. Sux that the econo ver of production and only four or five events is what made UFC top dog.

I also agree that this should be put to rest. It's old history and boring to see posted.

Yeah it looked pretty bad at first. But looking closely it looks more ankle than knee. I'm sure his ankle is at least sprained.



Posted by: goandykid

Wouldnt be surprised if he hurt an MCL or something. Who would Cro Cop fight next? Who's on the card for 71? And big upcoming fights for UFN?

After the fight Dana comes over and says something along the lines of "That was the best TUF fight ever." but I wasnt very impressed. Looked like Nate dominated the whole second round, after a slow first round. Did Dana see someting I didnt?

That was a brutal head kick and the way his leg buckled look bad. But he was able to walk out of the cage.

But what's up with all the upsets as of late? Silva gets ko by henderson, sokodjou ko nogeuira and arona, couture beat sylvia, serra ko gsp and now gonzaga ko crocop.

UFC has turned into the new WWE. Everyone you want to win, doesnt. I swear, who saw that coming? The king of kicks, getting kicked. Christ o mighty. Is nothing certain?


By the way, I am a lil surprised Arlowski won decision.

I smell a Sylvia v Cro Cop coming up.



Posted by: Doublebase

I'm proud of boy Bisbing. He fought really well and was relentless with the GNP. His style reminds me of Titos. I won my money back, that I lost on the Couture/Slyvia fight back, with Gonzaga. I wasn't all about Gonzaga but I knew he was extremely strong and a great BJJ guy. I didn't know he could strike that well though. I though Cro Cop was gonna be really injured from that. His frikin ankle turned 180 degrees. I'm glad to see him standing and walking after the fight. O yeah, where the hell is Brandon Vera??? He was on his way to a title fight. WTF happened???



Posted by: IainDaniel

Why were the commentators nut huggin on Arloski?

I thought Arloski looked like shit. He fought a one dimensional fighter.

The best part about that one dimensional fighter is that he was ranked #7 in the world, and he was one of PRIDE's top dogs.

They weren't nut huggin Arlovski. Rogan kept bitching about how slow his pace was. He even said that the UFC peeps would rather see a fighter come out and be aggressive and loose than come out and play it safe for the win.

As a fan, I woul dhave to agree 100%. However, I am not the one fighting.

He didnt look hungry. Almost as if hes lossed his edge. Like a...chicken-shit.

Of course then again you think of Cro Cop and..hang on..I need another second to register what I saw.














































Cro Cop didnt look hungry either. Then again he kept the pace safe for a minute or two and look how that turned out.

If you look when the kick gets thrown he goes to block it low, probably not thinking that Gonzaga could get a kick up that high. He was expecting it in the ribs and left his head wide open.



Posted by: Mudge

Would it be normal for someone not to be able to kick that high? I would hope not at that level.



Posted by: BigDyl

Fedor actually designed and or popularized the way to block both a body/rib kick and head kick at the same time. He used it against cro cop in their fight. Cro Cop should have done the same to simutaneously block the body and head shot.



Posted by: NordicNacho

he did a good job of using his head to block it. He thought he was going to break the other guys foot. trust me i know



Posted by: pitbullguy01

I wonder how bad cro cop is hurt. lost alot of money on that one and to whoever thinks that pride is better is so f***in stupid! ckuck wins and the only fighter pride has is fedor and i'm gettin sick of hearing about serra. he is a smuck that got a lucky punch in gsp would kill him if they fought again!



Posted by: pitbullguy01

I'll try to find a bigger one, I yanked this from an avatar.

And it wasn't 1 lucky punch. It was actually 5 or 6, and none of them were lucky.

Here are a few clips from the fight. (you have to click on the Serra vs. St. Pierre video)

Good angles on this one, not the broadcast views.

And not to mention he did an awesome job of staying composed and finishing GSP off, unlike that British dude Saturday who ran in with a crazy jump kick and eventually got ground and pounded (granted he won).

Yup. Check out the link above, it's highlights without commentary. You can hear how hard Serra actually hits. I'm fuckin impressed.



Posted by: Goodfella9783

Yeah I just checked that out. They didn't show him finish him, but you can tell his stand up improved even just since the show.

Not even close, he belonged in the ring and he proved it with a lot more than just one lucky punch. I've seen lucky punches that stunned even the victor, and that wasn't one of them.

You had to say it...


I like how Serra call him a "dick". The way he said it was funny. Serra is a good guy. I like his attitude. I actually think that will be a good fight but he aint' beating my boy, Hughes.



Posted by: Goodfella9783

Yeah it'll be a great fight. Hughes is probably extra motivated and Serra dislikes him.

Hughs is nothing more than a wrestler, I cannot see how he ever even had the title.

Randy Couture
Josh Koscheck
Sean Sherk
Rashad Evans
Quinton Jackson
Joe Stevenson
Tito Ortiz

countless other...

Hughes did beat GSP their first time out. Hughes beat Penn, Trigg 2X, is 41-5 and no chump wrastler. He sits at the upper echelon of the UFC food chain because he fought his way up there. Can he own the belt now? Nope. NOBODY can ...

If you ever watch any videos of Cro Cop stretching you can see the amazing flexibility and range in his legs. That probably saved him from some serious cartilage, ligament, or worse damge. Glad to see him him get up and congratulate Gonzaga and do an interview like the class act he is.

Here's a couple of notes from his website.....

April 24rd, 2007
Mirko arrived to his hometown today, he was limping a bit. He said: I deserved that loss because of the way i was fighting. I fall down every now and then, i was twice in this situation, after Randleman and after Fedor and i got back up again, i will be back this time too, that is a part of my career. I have 4 more fights to come and i will do them all.

April 23rd, 2007
Mirko had the worst case scenario in the fight with Gonzaga. Gonzaga controlled the whole fight and after 4 minutes and 51 second Gonzaga unleashed devastating right high kick which landed on Mirko's head knocking him down. Mirko was up on his feet after few minutes and he was feeling ok. What is next for Mirko after this knockout we don't know, we hope that he will come back stronger than before and that he will be best heavyweight in UFC one day.

Werdum is a tough heavyweight. He has beaten a tough Gonzaga and Aleksander, and went the distance with Nog. I don't fault Arlovski for sitting back and out pointing him, it was the smart fight.

And what the fuck was Herb Dean doing standing them up. I don't agree with stand-ups in MMA to begin with, but that was ridiculous. Gonzaga was working his ass off.

Something was rotten in the state of England.

It's just Herb Dean. I was actually just watching a PRIDE fight he reffed when they were in Vegas and he did the same thing.

Probably little bit of Dana White in that too. No one wants to see Cro Cop on his back.

Jesus christ, youve got a hard on for him like no other.

He doesnt give a shit about you, so why give a fuck about him? Its nice to be a dedicated fan, but youd suck his dick if you could.

We all assume that Dana White wants Cro Cop to win. That woukd be like bringing the guy who was almost but not quit good enough to be the Pride champ and he then walks through the UFC to own the belt. Kinda makes the UFC rank & file ... Dana White's baby ... look weak don't it?

Stand em up. Lay and pray ... ie take a nap together ... you get stood up. Keep busy you stay down there. Busy means actually throwing punches or working for a sub, not the occasional rabbit punch or no-power gut tap.

I dunno. BigDyl probably thinks Fedor's dick would choke him out or some shit.

First off, that was not "lay & pray". Gonzaga was landing big time and working. First thing that popped into my head was "that was Dana White's doing". But I just don't know.

Fighting patiently from the guard and waiting for a mistake is a lot of BJJ fighters' style, and that can be lost when you start standing fighters up. Not to mention stand up is just as boring sometimes, as in Arlovski/ Sylvia 3 and Arlovski/ Werdum.

Nah nut you misunderstood my direction of thought. I didn't say this was a lay & pray fight. Just said I hate lay & pray strat's ... like Hughes used to employ.

If the guy is good at bjj he will keep busy forcing transitions on the ground to create an op for a sub. That guy I would not only not stand up ... I'd be PISSED at his getting disrupted from doing his work. On the other hand, the bjj guy that hangs out looking for an opening ... not creating one by his own actions but just playing the waiting game ... gets stood up for not working.

That being said ... you are right ... Zags was a busy Brazilian doin his G&P thing throwing elbows and punches from both sides when Dean stood 'em up. Cro Cop was on his back again in like 10 seconds anyway so it really worked out for Zags ... but ... in no way should that fight have been taken off the ground.



Posted by: AKIRA

Standing them up is ok in my book. I can see where it gets in the way of some people's specialities, but there are ways around it. Gonzaga sure proved it.

After watching the "stand up," it did seem a lil premature.

But at this point, who cares.



Posted by: the nut

I just thought it looked really questionable to me. You know White wanted Cro Cop/ Couture and it was thought that Cro Cop would win easily if the fighters stayed on their feet. It could be that Herb Dean is really that bad, but if that's the case then fire his ass.

The last thing I want is this sport to end up like boxing.

I've actually refrained from verbally destroying you in your little "rant" threads about hitting girls and going on rage sprees (see VA shooting).


If you're trying to troll me it won't work. But your ignorance is clear since you don't understand what I'm talking about.

And your arrogance is your weakness.

I apologize if I agree with another member of IM about watching two guys rolling around the ground, getting nothing done, and being stood up.

I dont care what YOU do on the ground and how long YOU stay there with your men.


Despite the attempt to thread hijack, my hitting girl thread spawned from another forum that peaked interest. My rage thread was just a ponderment.

I guess we cant have any thoughtful, yet random discussions about less important shit cuz BigDyl wants to about men rolling around on the floor.

"verbally destroying" Hah.
