That's what I thought! I still love my boy Lyoto though and am glad he won (technically...kind of...in some strange way that I don't understand in the last round).

Maybe the judges just forgot which one was which (Lets be honest, they all look alike). Unanamous decision, insert random Brazilian name here.

Shogun didn't even look touched after 5 rounds...Lyota was lookin a little battered. There is no way he won that hands down....I don't even think he won any round the whole fight...its a crock of shit.

Yeah it was an extreme let down and, well, a joke. Really, how can this be taken seriously? How did Bruce Buffer not question what he was going to announce?

I just cant get how 3 judges saw it that way usually dodgy decisions are split.

im a hugh lyoto fan but everytime he tried to shoot away to the side shogun got him with a leg kick. lyoto landed some good shots but over the course he only managed to win the 3rd .

you are not missing anything....but a huge let down!

on reflection im starting to come round to lyotos and the judges way of thinking it was a much closer fight than is being made out

I watched it twice and its still Rua all the way.

One could argue that you cant win the championship with leg kicks. Yeah? Then how did Forrest win it? Not to mention Rua looked unmarked after the fight, yet Machida's legs, torso, and FACE were marked.

Really, whats it going to take????


By the way, Lesnar is out of 106. Hes got the sniffles. Unbelievable.

I read on Sherdog.com that this is fight happening at the TUF finale.

means he didnt get back in then or did and got beat again

Means he didn't get back in I guess. He is just on the card fighting another UFC fighter.

Kimbo is lame-o

Richie1888

was fairly safe to say he was getting to fight in the ufc regardless as even for a couple of fight hes a draw and Dana can watch him get wooped

odds that houston takes it to the ground anyone ?

He is probably getting paid more then 99% of the UFC fighters too.

Dana is probably offering a nice KO bonus to whoever wins. Who ever is fighting Kimbo would be expected to take him down. Houston is one tough mother and is completely capable of handle Kimbo on his feet. So with that said, I'm expecting an exciting fight.

Don't forget about the Fedor vs Brett Rogers fight this Saturday. Its free on CBS I believe. No time to search it.

looking forward to the Fedor fight...my only regret is not getting tickets to see it live.

Richie1888

lol im sure we ve been here before expecting stand up and one fighter thinks he ll be smart and take it down.

that being said if they stay on the feet i very much expect houston to knock his block off. for all his failings on the ground he is a good striker .

i get the feeling dana went to the like of a alexander / irwin fight alike and probaly wasnt bothered who took the fight.

i hope we re not dissapoint with this bout. its turned into a guilty plessure for me im looking forward to it

Fedor by whatever he feel like or rodgers by KO ?

KenEm

I predict a 99.9% chance of a relatively quick KO or submission by Fedor in round 1.



(The other 0.1% chance is a quick, shocking KO by Rogers in round 1. But I think Fedor is WAY too smart, and skilled, to let that happen. He's fought brawlers before.)

AKIRA

Imagine if Rogers connects. What then? Is Rogers the next big thing? What does SF do then?

Yes Brett Rogers is undefeated but can you name any fighters he has beaten other then Arlovski? I am more of a UFC fan so I don't know a lot of the fighters outside of it. I just don't think he has enough experience to beat Fedor. I'll say Fedor by triangle.

theres a punchers chance as always but really unless something freak happens it should be fedor for the win

ill play it safe and fedor by arm bar in the first

speaking of arm bars anybody catch big babys arm bar on tuf ? cant think of as better one ive seen

Richie1888

for them i think its win win.

if fedor wins the american public get to see just why hes the best and he increases his profile in the states.

if he looses SF can say that they have the legend killer on their books and market rodgers accordingly. whilst they do that they can build fedor up for the rematch

I have it DVR'ed. Thanks for the spoiler. Al though I can't tell from your post if Big Baby arm bared somebody or got arm bared. I'm assuming he arm bared the dude cause he said he was going to rip somebody's arm off.

No. There are NOT good fights in there. Unless you count, at most, 2.


Speaking of the above post about Rogers vs. Fedor. I disagree with you about Rogers winning. Remember what happened to Elite when Kimbo lost?

Fedor will dominate the fight...he has a strong chin so I'm not worried about him getting knocked out. So the odds of that happening in my eyes are very slim.

How the cards fall will determine if Rogers gets KO'd or taps to a rear naked choke.

AKIRA

I think its a joke, frankly. The only fight worth a damn is Miller vs. Shields. I love Mousasi, but his fight is a joke as well.

Either way, I guess I have to see this while I am out n about, but I dont know where.
