OT: The Official UFC Chat Thread

Lots of "upsets" too, which is always good to see

RnmEvo9 · 09-23-2011, 06:11 PM

Never cared for Jones, so I am going for Rampage even though he is a 7-1 underdog.

san~man · 09-24-2011, 02:09 AM

Vitor out, Wand in vs Le

Daniel135i · 09-24-2011, 06:03 PM

Anybody have a way to watch this.... I used to purchase online but the retarded italian government blocked the purchases from the UFC here. There is no way i can watch UFC anymore, they even changed the satellites that broadcast the Military AFN signal so I cant use that either.

Any help appreciated. otherwise I have to wait and download the torrent.

san~man · 09-24-2011, 11:46 PM

Jones by RNC in the 4th.

LACSTER · 09-25-2011, 02:11 AM

Rampage down Rashard is next.

choicez · 09-25-2011, 02:18 AM

Bring on Anderson Silva! Doubt it will happen anytime soon but I would love to see these two prodigies battle. Jon Bone Jones is badass.

BMW86 · 09-25-2011, 09:34 AM

Crazy fight. I thought Jones looked a bit cautious but still put on a great show. Rampage couldn't get a single punch in. It's pretty clear that Jones' chin hasn't been tested yet. As soon as we can get somebody that trade with him (Silva), we'll see what he's made of. So far he looks really promising. I think he'll wipe out the division within a couple of years. I enjoyed the Diaz and Koschek fight too.

Garduna · 09-25-2011, 12:35 PM

Was rooting for Rampage but those knee kicks looked nasty and the stupid reach advantage was too much. Will say this tho, Rampage looked really good as well. His takedown defense and head movement was great.

Did you guys see Tony Fergurson bout, they guy helped dislocate the other dude's jaw for the 2nd time of his career >_> damn

escobar929 · 09-26-2011, 12:58 PM

yea, Jones was too much for a guy like Rampage, he was never the quickest and Jones is too fast and way too much reach. I dont think Rampage landed a single clean shot the whole fight. Lets see what Rashad can do...

Tony Fergurson has some serious power for 155, would love to see him against a tougher opponent. Same w/ Nate Diaz, its a shame he moved to 170, cause like he said, he can/has beat all the top contenders at 155 and the ones he lost to, I think he could win the rematches. I would love to see him against Barboza next

Props to Mark Hunt for his crazy cardio for a HW to be fighting a mile high and still being able to perform. Rothwell was done after the 1st round, he had nothing left after that

Garduna · 09-26-2011, 02:41 PM

The Mark Hunt vs Rothwell match was so painful to watch. Man, elevation killed so many fighters that night. gassing after first or midway through second round.

san~man · 09-26-2011, 08:03 PM

You would figure that, as "professionals," they'd train for the condition they are going to fight in, but I guess they're not all professionals lol.

They ain't got no Rampage dedicated!!!

Daniel135i · 09-27-2011, 03:45 PM

Rampage is a beast of a fighter, Jones just has his #. I hope he does well in any further fights... but I cant see him beating Jones unless he really gets a different movement. Someone needs to bum rush him without taking a pop.. and be strong enough to hold that lanky guy down. Ergo, there is no man in MMA that is capable of doing that right now.

Rashad doesnt stand a chance either... just saying.

escobar929 · 09-28-2011, 03:04 PM

I always forget to ask but any Bellator or Dream fans here?

there were some pretty good fights this weekend on their cards. Like Joe Warren (the 145 champ) getting KOed in the 135 tourney, awkward lol

I've only ever watched UFC and Strikeforce fights. I might start watching them if you think they're worth watching? Lol at Joe Warren, that would have been a huge upset!

san~man · 09-29-2011, 03:56 AM

UFC on versus this Saturday

I'm half way through watching dream 17 (its like 5 hours long) from this past weekend and its pretty good, lots of grappling and bjj. specially this dude named Imanari, nasty bjj

i thought bellator 51 was great, the entire card but its retarded of them to try to compete w/ the UFC by having their events on the same nights

the Joe Warren fight was a HUGE upset, ive never seen a brutal KO like that in 135 before, if you havent seen it, youtube it! im sure he thought as the 145 champ, he would breeze through the 135 tourney but Alexis Villa has sick power. The rest of the tourney should be great

hope mighty mouse pulls off the upset, i cant stand Cruz

and some shady shit going on w/ Dave Herman, they lost his drug test? then all of the sudden it comes back positive for steroids and MJ? so he's out of 136, wonder if he'll get a marquardt

SpmnE9zero · 09-29-2011, 07:42 AM

What happened on the Ultimate Fighter last night? I fell to sleep right before it began!

Been watching Dream since #13. Just started getting into it. That damn Aoki man, dude trains in Shanghai for Mauy Thai then in the match goes straight to the ground. Crazy shit is, he goes for the kill with just 30sec left >_< and gets it!

Sakuraba, I heard he was a legend and I need to see some of his older stuff. Felt sorry for him with those heavy taped up knees and he looked so out of it. The announce team kept on mentioning him as the japanese wanderlai

I'm watching TUF ep now, Miller is all jokes. He comes bringing gifts as well haha!!!

san~man · 09-30-2011, 04:32 AM

Sakuraba was good in his younger days but age has taken it's toll on his body. He was known as the "Gracie killer" (iirc).
