Ditto.

I watched the Koscheck fight. Early stoppage. Again.

I am really starting to not like Technical Knockouts.

AKIRA · 03-08-2009, 11:22 AM

Last night was one of the best UFCs. I was dead wrong about Gonzaga, but I got the other 3 fights right.

Oh yeah, Rampage looked like he didnt train hard for this fight. He more or less dominated, but not as much as I expected. I mean, Jardine has been knocked out before and...nothing.

Came close. Multiple times.

fufu · 03-08-2009, 12:10 PM

I hope to see Carwin go places in the UFC.

Rampage vs Evens is going to be a joke. Who wants to place $ bets on that fight now?

You think Evans is a lock huh?

Yeah I think Evans will dominate that fight. Evans is faster, stronger, and more well rounded. Evans will beat Rampage at his own game. Stand up and swinging I don't think rampage has what it takes.

In a slugfest its all about who gets in those couple good punches and it could be either of them. Either way that fight will end in a knockout.

I would have to agree. Evans has some crazy striking speed.

AKIRA · 03-08-2009, 08:12 PM

Agreed. Rampage just looked like shit last night. Well maybe not utter shit, but a turd or a pebble.

Richie1888 · 03-09-2009, 08:44 AM

anyone catch the girl at the start with the rack ?

gonzaga must be gutted it looked like he was finishing carwin until the punch

fufu · 03-28-2009, 05:45 PM

Does anyone have HDnet so you can watch the Japan MMA cards?

Solid card.
UFC® : Ultimate Fighting Championship®

AKIRA · 03-31-2009, 09:12 PM

It actually is and I wonder which fights wont be aired.

As far as Fight Night coming up, I could care fucking less.

AKIRA · 04-11-2009, 11:24 PM

Anyone watch Strikeforce tonight? Talk about a snooze fest. Mmmmeh, other than the Smith fight.

Poor Frank..losing to a twot like that. Didnt even try.

The Smith fight was one of the best fights I have seen in a while. Nick Diaz has a bright future if he can just get his anger issues settled. Frank well, was not ready at all for that fight. WTF was Diaz saying to him anyway? Then he picks him up after the fight and calls him a legend after he humiliated him in the last minute.

Exactly. Why be a loud mouth and then be cordial? If youre a bad ass, you fucking run with it. Now whenever he talks shit, Ill be thinking its just an act.

AKIRA · 04-14-2009, 08:32 PM

My picks...

UFC Middleweight Championship
Anderson Silva (No. 1 MW, No. 1 PFP) vs. Thales Leites (No. 8 MW)

Chuck Liddell (No. 5 LHW) vs. Mauricio "Shogun" Rua
Brian Stann vs. Krzysztof Soszynski
Cheick Kongo vs. Antoni Hardonk
Luis Arthur Cane (No. 9 LHW) vs. Steve Cantwell
Denis Kang vs. Xavier Foupa-Pokam
Jason MacDonald vs. Nate Quarry
Ed Herman vs. David Loiseau
Eliot Marshall vs. Vinny Magalhaes
Mark Bocek vs. David Bielkheden
T.J. Grant vs. Ryo Chonan
Sam Stout vs. Matt Wiman

I didnt bold those fights cuz I dont know them.

Anyway, I think the Silva fight will be one sided and I am not looking forward to it.

Liddells fight I am a little excited for though.. Shogun has looked horrible and I dont think hes gonna come back now, but if he does, what a time to do it!

Toss up for me, but I am gonna side with him this time.

AKIRA · 04-19-2009, 01:42 AM

Liddell vs. Shogun?

shame we didnt get to hear him come into dmx one more time

should be his last fight cant see him fighting anymore like joe said all the gladiators get taken out on there shields

emitecaps · 04-25-2009, 11:41 PM

Anyone see the amateur MMA match featuring the kid with no arms of legs? It had the potential to be an absolute trainwreck but his opponent basically just ran away for the entire match. I think this kid will get seriously injured if he continues and hope someone convinces him to do something else. It matches like this that portray MMA in a bad light and draw public resentment.

Doublebase · 04-28-2009, 08:54 PM

Anderson Silva vs Forrest Griffin set for UFC 101 in Philly. Anyone else think that Silva is just going to own Griffin? I hope its a good fight but I don't know. Griffin always puts on a good show so we'll see.

AKIRA · 04-28-2009, 11:18 PM

Oh really? Hmm...

i imagine it will be something similiar to how quickly he put away irwin unless forest takes the ill not attack u if u dont attack me approach, but i doubt that.

how come they changed the fight anyway ?

I think an Anderson who will pull the trigger will beat Griffin all day.

I've always counted Griffin out in these big fights, and I will continue to, even though he has proved me wrong more than once.

AKIRA · 04-29-2009, 08:04 AM

Could it be cuz he has no knockout power and hardly has shown too much submission skill?
