UFC Thread


hahahaha

BJ completely dominated in the first round... then turned to shit, Nick is a good fighter but anyone that dumb, I find it hard to like... Nick will get dominated by GSP, I hope GSP is angry, I want to see the kick arse GSP back.

I've read it a few places (youtube comments) that GSP was thinking of going to 155, but where is the source? Aldo should go upto 155 (I think his performing worse at 145 every fight). Aldo/Frankie/GSP any of them fighting each other would be amazing.
 

were did I say he dominated Condit?? all I said is that in my opinion he will be the next champ, BJ Penn,paul Dailey,Cyborg,K.J noon, is his last 5 fights/wins, which one of them do you class as a easy fight(ok maybe dailey)?? I dont think GSP is going to need to fight silva once sonnen is finished with him nor do I think he needs to, look at the list of fighters GSP has beaten over the years, he doesnt need to prove anything, yes he is a bit boring to watch but he is a proven product,
 
big one tomorrow....UFC on Fox......their first telecast with Fox Sports....main event is Cain Velasquez vs Junior Dos Santos.

Who will win?

My tip is Velasquez. Dos Santos packs a serious punch and definitely has a good chance, but i think Cain will do the business. Should be a humdinger!
 
Hopefully Velasquez will take in in the 3rd or 4th so it gives some new viewers on fox something to watch and get interested in.

I think the ufc fucked up by not putting bendo vs guida on fox as well... Should be an action packed fight.
 
Was amazed when I saw the add for it on ONE-HD, Didn't think we'd get it in AUS. I haven't seen too many of Cains fights, but have seen most of Juniors. I do hope Junior wins, I think he deserves it...
 
Guida ALWAYS puts on a good fight. One of my favourites for that reason. Sadly outclassed by Henderson through the whole fight.
 
Velasquez looked really nervous... and slower than normal. Looks like that injury and all that time off did make a difference.

So Brock is next for Dos Santos, if he beats Overeem. I can't see him beating Dos Santos, nor can I see Overeem getting close. A rematch would make the most sense, seeing as neither were particularaly injured (so far) nor did they get out of the first round.

Loved the Guida fight, but Henderson owned him.
 
Guida and Henderson fight was crazy, as if that wasn't on the show for the yanks.. talk about showing every aspect of the sport..

I think Cain got unlucky to get knocked out, maybe the ring rust through off his judgment a little and he got clipped, he was definitely setting up for then later rounds.
 
Wow, what an effort from JDS! I agree that he should be favourite against winner of Lesnar v Overeem. I was reasonably confident he was gonna beat Lesnar a few months back, before Lesnar pulled out with injury, but I thought Velasquez was THE MAN in the heavyweight division.

I agree with Dana White's comments post-fight.... Cain should've taken it to the ground. People don't do it against JDS. God knows why not.....he's proven now he's the best puncher in MMA.
 
Clay Guida got "Clay guida'ed" by Henderson lol.

Cain seriously scares me and I predicted that going the other way, if you replay Cain's fights he's vicious, he def looked scared there.
 
Here's some more info on why Cain was not 'Cardio Cain' yesterday, and why an immediate return to action for both would be out of the question - both fighters are carrying injuries.

"It was serious enough that JDS nearly pulled out of the fight beforehand, but his team convinced him he could handle it. While that decision turned out to be the right one, the bad news is it’s going to require surgery.
“I got a very serious injury in my knee, my meniscus,” said the new champion. “You know, ten days ago I couldn’t walk very well. I stayed two days with [crutches], but I asked my doctor to help me because it’s the fight of my life and I can’t miss that fight.”

That doctor, Fabio Costa, told MMAFighting.com’s Ariel Helwani that dos Santos has a large lesion on his meniscus that will require surgery to fix, and which nearly forced him out of the bout entirely.

“Ten minutes before the fight he told us, ‘My knee, I have something in my knee.’ [We] said, ‘Calm down. You are a tough guy. You are our warrior. You can go.’ Now he’s the champion.”

It turns out JDS wasn’t the only one with a knee injury heading into the fight though. Velasquez downplayed rumors that he had also suffered a serious knee injury that nearly forced him out, however Joe Rogan told Ariel Helwani after the fight that he had to have his knee shot up with cortisone too. Transcription via Fight Opinion:

Joe Rogan: “The main event was really a perfect result for Junior dos Santos, exactly what he wanted to do — connect, land, hurt him bad, and finish him off. That’s what his game plan was, that’s what he did. I was surprised that Cain Velasquez didn’t try to either take him down or force him immediately into some sort of a grappling contest, force him to work hard and tire him out but… you know, who knows what the game plan was. There was a lot of rumblings about Cain Velasquez having a knee sprain, that he got shot with cortisone before the fight, so… who knows if that played a part in it, you know?”

Ariel Helwani: “Everyone in Cain’s camp was denying that but I’m wondering if you found out any more information, if that was in fact true.”

Joe Rogan: “Oh, it is true, yeah, it is true. Yeah, I mean, I’m sure they denied it before the fight but I know for a fact it was true.”
