I'd root for Koscheck over Hughes anyday! The first episode of The Ultimate Fighter was pretty enjoyable! I especially enjoyed seeing Cole Miller's brother get his ass handed to him. It is fun to watch the cocky motherfuckers lose!
Guess I am alone in that I kinda like Hughes... Agree on the UF fights from last night. Great bunch of fighters this season. What was up with the way Cole Miller's bro talked? He sounded like a pro wrestler. Glad I don't have to listen to that all season long.
Just saw Jon Jones dominate Rampage. This guy is making some top tier light heavyweight fighters look silly; I only assume the same will happen to Rashad. Screw GSP vs Silva, sorry GSP let the big boys battle for the p4p title; I say (reiterate) the dream fight everyone wants to see is Jon Jones VS Anderson Silva. I hope it happens soon, Silva should probably fight Jones while he's still in his prime.
I thought this was the best card I can remember in a long time, possibly ever. Guillard getting dropped and choked out by Lauzon, Nam Phan and Garcia's war, Sonnen smothering and submitting Stann, Aldo and Florian was decent, but Edgar and Maynard was insane! Almost identical first round as the last fight, then Frankie coming back and getting the TKO at the end of the 4th. My mind is blown!
Frankie Edgar is one tough mofo! Again. So glad to see a definitive knock out. at Sonnen's WWE inspired speech after his win.
yeah, great card, great fights. edgar is a machine. I feel bad for maynard....like deja vu. Chael is a tool. Stann looked like shit. When is Guillard going to learn some submission defense? phan vs garcia could have gone either way.
I'm a nam phan fan, but he's a I FART A LOT to automatically say no to a 3rd fight hen 2 coulda went either way! Edgar has balls, and never counts hisself out! The good part is he should t be seeing Maynard anytime soon, IV again... Usually fighter see each other a max 3 times in their career, but Edgar is young and fight #1 was in the youth of his career... We'll see how that goes... Florian gave his heart... I respect that.
I'll give you this, but I LOVED his post fight interview! I am NO fan of Silva so I would LOVE to see Sonnen beat him! I love watching Guillard lose. He hasn't been doing much of it recently so today was nice! And Frankie is a monster!! NEW JERSEY baby
aghhh... I found him funny for a little bit, but got tired quite quickly. His hamming around makes him not seem serious. I also think using his win to just antagonize Anderson and bandstand is disrespectful to the other fighters involved in that event. Like his life and previous loss is the first thing on everyones minds. I also think he will loose against Silva. It will be an exciting one that I would watch, but I don't think Silva would fall into Chael's trap a 2nd time. I'm a Silva fan.. I'm not sure why everyone doesn't like him. My take on it is that he isn't 100% comfortable with how the entertainment side of the US fight business works and his attempts to entertain or hype come off wrong. I could be way off on that of course.
I watched the prelims on Spike but didn't spring for the main card. Donald Cerrone is an animal. Those were some vicious shins to Siver's face. Brandon Vera is one of the most boring UFC fighters. They should change his aka from "The Truth" to "Play it safe". Common BJ. Kick his ass...
I liked the first two fights of the prelims, but agree vera is boring and I don't think he should have won.
damn, i stand corrected. Diaz gave BJ an ass whooping. Impressive boxing displayed. i'm disappointed BJ didn't try to mix it up more to flip the table. Roy Nelson can take a punch and definitely knows how to throw one. Cheick Kongo looked good. Cerrone is an animal. impressive. Brandon who?
GSP vs. Diaz I totally can't wait I may be one of less than a handful of people that actually like Diaz, but I still want to see GSP destroy him
Me three. He's a super talented striker and has a top notch ground game too. I think he's the best of the WEC guys they brought over to the UFC.
So this isn't MMA.. A documentary I helped edit and did audio work and motion grafix for is going to be on Fight Network. Some great body shot KOs and crazy old 8mm footage. That and crazy old library music for the soundtrack. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96eGMqnlxdk&feature=related
