My Jiu Jitsu instructor seems to think Hughes will win.

^^^^What he said ...

I don't agree with "easy victory"

Maybe a little biased though?

BigPapaPump68 · 05-24-2006, 05:27 PM

should be a great fight. Gracie is great when it comes to the ground, but I think Hughes will try to stun him on his feet and possibly bring the fight to the ground. Hughes is crazy so expect anything.

Goodfella9783 · 05-24-2006, 06:26 PM

Not a bad undercard either, particularly the Silva/Vera + Swick/Riggs fights:

BigDyl · 05-24-2006, 07:25 PM

Vera will win
Swick will win
Sanchez will win

Jeremy Horns a beast, he will win.

Goodfella9783 · 05-24-2006, 07:40 PM

How much do they cost now? I think the last one I got was in November (Franklin/Quarry,Hughes/Riggs) and it was $30.oo.

Shit, I dont know what side to route for or define. I dont like either one of these cocksuckers. But I still wanna see who wins.

It would be kinda cool if they killed each other, but thats for another time.

Would a wager on the outcome of Gracie Hughes be no-no here? You know ... just for bragging rights ...

Hughes has made some stupid mistakes, which is why I don't think anyone could make such a sure bet...

Hughes versus Frank Trigg 2. Frank Trigg had him a rear naked choked, and almost had him knocked out. Trigg made a stupid mistake and didn't hold it in, and hughes escaped. But Hughes made a stupid mistake to get in that position.

Sometimes hughes carries people around. Very pointless. You don't need to walk around the ring in circles carrying someone. That tires you the hell out. Watch Fedor, he doesn't fuck around. He does a fast ass takedown and gets the position.

Yeah but comparing Darth Fador to Hughes is like comparing Ali to ... well ... to Foreman.

OR Tank Abbot

BigDyl · 05-25-2006, 08:50 PM

I'm tired of some of these hyped up UFC clowns. Let em' fight Darth Fedor.

BoneCrusher · 05-25-2006, 08:55 PM

Make 'em go through his younger brother first ... if he's past his elbow injury.

In that particular case though, Trigg hit Hughes low and the ref didn't step in. Hughes was stunned from the low blow and that's when Trigg came in with the strikes and choke.

I agree with you with the carrying shit though. Seems like more show and to get the crowd hyped up.

Didn't Huges tap out to BJ Penn?

YES. He got owned.

Here it comes.

BoneCrusher · 05-26-2006, 09:53 PM

Ya hafta of actually seen the fight to laugh at BigDyl's lil "here it comes" post. There was no pwnage ... just a good sub from Penn on a younger and less experienced Hughes. Any true MMA fan is a member of a certain site ***cough -= FCZ =- cough *** and can download the fight.

MMmmmmm PayPal anyone? Just a lil wager ... I got Hughes for the win.

TJ Cline · 05-26-2006, 11:22 PM

Gracie will destroy him....you untrained fools don't know that Gracie's style is not age dependant...at 50 he could own all.

fufu · 05-27-2006, 07:42 AM
