Yeah, but in a way I thought it brought a nice balance the card. Most of the fights were on the feet.

Well, I like the ground game as much as anyone, but it seems Wagnney forgot that you can set positions up with strikes in MMA. Not being able to throw elbows in the IFL might have contributed to that though.

agree

I'll sit through an infomercial for the entertainment provided by those fights anytime.

Stop being a bitch.

AKIRA · 12-11-2008, 10:29 AM

**IainDaniel** · 12-11-2008, 01:35 PM

Damn. That is fucked.

He just came back from an injury as well.

BoneCrusher · 12-12-2008, 10:24 AM

Yeah but has some killer video to show the grand kids. Beats the hell out of the old "walked to school two miles up hill in the snow barefoot ... both ways" stuff the rest of us will have.

The full card includes:

I was impressed with Junie. He looked a lot better last night then he did on the show. Bader's win over Vinnie was huge. Vinnie's stand-up needs a ton of work. I still think he will do well in the UFC. This was a good season. I think we'll be seeing a lot of these fighters in the future. Phillipe, Efrain, Junie, Bader, Vinnie and Krzysztof.

AKIRA · 12-14-2008, 09:45 PM

Perhaps youre right.

What I want to know...is after Vinnie took that shot and dropped, I noticed he paused, then rolled. Was this an avoidance roll or was it a delayed loss of function?

CORUM · 12-14-2008, 10:48 PM

that leg injury was NASTY!!!!! I think he needs to put some meat on his on his bones!!!

And the fights were good lastnight. I think Junie has gotten ALOT better, I am sre we will see more of all of them. Real talented season

AKIRA · 12-15-2008, 12:15 AM

The guy he fought sure was an asshole. Coming out to a song like that, dancing, sporting a dumb haircut, and lose.

Doublebase · 12-28-2008, 12:04 AM

Good card tonight. Rashad looked great. He had some fast hands. Really impressive. Nog was a big disapointment. His stand up looked terrible. Mir did a good job. I will be excited to see him fight again. Wandy got rocked. Nice job by Rampage.

Doublebase · 12-28-2008, 03:08 PM

Man no talk about last nights card? There were some good fights. Kongo looked good also.

TrojanMan60563 · 12-28-2008, 04:06 PM

I thought Silva was going to take Rampage. If you look at Rampage's record it is not that impressive for how much credit everyone gives him. Silva either wins or gets knocked out cold. What a puss

I was dissapointed again by Forest. I thought he had a shot and very shocked he was knocked out. He can really take a lot of abuse. I would have liked to see him win and retain his title. Rashad vs Rampage would be a great fight. They both fight with similar styles and both have equally heavy hands. I look forward to that.

Who is stoked about PENN vs GSP????

That is going to be a coin toss. They are both so skilled and strong. I would honestly love to see Penn get his ass handed to him, yet I cannot stand GSP. He has become more humble over the past year or so, but he is still a cocky asshole.

Doublebase · 12-28-2008, 05:26 PM

Rogan said that Rampage did not have a great training camp when he was in PRIDE. Now he has top guys training him.

AKIRA · 12-29-2008, 02:47 PM

Yeah it was a great fight. I lost all my main card predictions. I liked everyone on the card, so it was an awkward feeling for me not seeing any good vs. evil.

Little surprised with the stoppage of Mir's fight after watching it again. Especially when compared to Kongo's fight.

A Black Guy · 01-01-2009, 09:45 PM

Finally finished watching K-1, a lot of shitty fights really. Manhoef is a god damn monster though, I've never seen Hunt get wrecked that badly.

Overeem is a few cycles away from becoming Bob Sapp.

Doublebase · 01-17-2009, 07:44 AM

Anyone watching UFC tonight?

PreMier · 01-17-2009, 10:00 AM

yes at 8 MST. im going to be staying away from all the fight sites/threads because it happens early, and i dont wanna know

TrojanMan60563 · 01-17-2009, 06:40 PM

Shoot 1/31 is the night to be watching UFC! I cannot wait!

Yeah that is a good card. Nate Diaz vs Clay Guida should be good.
