I think one of the fighters here for Saturday nights event was at my gym tonight. I don't know who since I don't follow much outside of the UFC aside from Fedor....but whoever it was was throwing some INSANE kicks on the bag. Just watching this man kick the bag made me realize I could never last in a ring because even one of those on my leg would have put me down. It was very impressive to say the least.

I saw this guy kicking a column in this building and parts of the building were coming down from the ceiling when he would kick the column. He had a bald head except for a pony tail. Crazy.

That was Mr Li from Kickboxer.

O! Maybe that's who it was. I also remember at this summer job I had. A guy could hammer a nail all the way through a 2 x 4 with one strike. It was amazing.

TrojanMan60563 · 11-06-2009, 07:52 AM

Yeah I was amazed how hard this guy was throwing kicks...I wouldn't want to even block one no less get hit by one. Again I cannot confirm he is fighting this weekend, but I wouldn't be surprised. It was very obvious he was not just an average joe hitting the bag for fun. Not to mention he was wearing trunks, gloves, and nothing on his feet but little slipper like deals.

Miagi has good eyes.

Good fight. Fedor always seems to look like he is getting beat then justs land a huge shot and knock his opponents block off. That was a hell of a punch. Fedor is exciting to watch. Fedor was patient, emotionless and very calm during that fight. Brett did a good job the first round but seem to gas a little towards the end. The only thing about Fedor now is who is he going to fight next? And who really cares that much? I mean Brett Rogers was undefeated and is a good fighter but he's not in the same class as Fedor. Fedor needs to fight in the UFC. That's it.

AKIRA · 11-08-2009, 06:30 PM

Overeem comes to mind. After that, yep, thats it.

TrojanMan60563 · 11-08-2009, 06:42 PM

Rogers was way out classed. He really had the power, but Fedor had for more skill, and maybe I am the only one that noticed but Fedor had zero problems manipulating Rogers body. There was a pretty serious size difference which leads me to believe Fedor could handle himself just fine with Brock. These big bulls get winded very quickly and then Fedor takes advantage. That hay maker at the end was insane...he almost fell on his face be put so much into that punch! I would have like to see a more humble Rogers rather then a guy claiming if he threw more punches the fight was his....talk is cheap. Fedor is a true sportsman.

Summarized very well. Agree 100%. Fedor must fight Brock.

Free UFC on Spike tonight. First fight is really good so far.

fufu · 11-17-2009, 12:27 AM

So I thought Vera won.

What about you guys?

I can see the argument for Randy, it was close when you judge the amount of control (pressing Vera against the cage doing little) he displayed.

Vera should have played it smarter and kept his distance better. I think he got tied up many times when it was just plain unnecessary.

AKIRA · 11-17-2009, 11:31 AM

I didnt think he won. Randy had complete, boring control. It was a LOUSY fight and a SHITTY card. As far as the fight went, I dont know what Randy was thinking besides doing exactly whats needed to win a decision.

I did choose Randy to win a decision as I dont believe he has KO power nor does he submit often. I wouldve liked a TKO as it was the only thing I could see happening, but Vera just didnt do enough to win shit.

just watch tuf there good fight what was madsen doing though in the first he stepped back into half guard twice for whatever reason.

i fancied brenden for that fight he seems quite good was stuffing take downs well

vera vs couture could actually have been argued for a draw. couture controlled till the end but when vera got him down and mounted i thought he had dont enough

fufu · Yesterday, 01:33 PM

So, any watch WEC last night?

AKIRA · Yesterday, 02:11 PM

Yeah it was about time I saw a damn knockout.

fufu, no I totally forgot and I already stumbled onto the news. Now I am going to go see how it was done.

It was a good card, minus the Manny fight.

Hah! GOOD. Not only do I despise Karo, but I despise fighters backing out of fights these days. Fuck him. Good way to make an example.
