Official UFC Thread - Part 5

[I'm Batman.]

Either Sonnen will surprise everybody, or Jones will smash him quickly. Choke after a knockdown.

I can see Belcher catching Bisping with something because he’s better offensively, but the money is on Bisping taking him down and pounding him for a decision.

Nelson by knockout, Kongo is a fighter whose best is behind him.

Miller will be a step quicker than Healy anywhere it goes and get a decision, maybe even a TKO as his Muay Thai looked good against Lauzon.

I hope Davis wins.

Solid card.

 

[CrypticOne]

Yeah, this is a wasteful fight for Jones. Sonnen has nothing for him. I wish we didn't have to see this.

I hope Belcher wins also. Can't stand Bisping. Hope he gets knocked. But like you said, Bisping probably wins a decision.

I hope Nelson knocks Kongo, but most likely, it'll be a boring heavyweight fight.

Miller by decision and Davis by decision. Only fight I'm looking forward to is Belcher/Bisping.

I think i hate bisping more than I hate the diaz bros...nah nah I dont. But its close

 

[Mace Bloodstone]

Hope this happens.


Nobody Will Force GSP Into a Superfight; Dana White Prefers Anderson Silva vs. Jon Jones
http://www.mmaweekly.com/nobody-wil...ana-white-prefers-anderson-silva-vs-jon-jones

 

[CrypticOne]

GSP just needs to finish out his career at 170. Anderson needs to go to 205, and Jones to heavyweight.

 

[TheVileOne]

Anderson Silva is huge and can't make 170 anymore. IMHO its a bad mis-match. Why make him cut all that weight? 205 is an easy cut for him.

He should be open to fighting Jones. Previously he said he wanted to fight Frank Mir.

 

[B]

The problem is Silva is too big for GSP & Jones is too big for Silva. It's the reason they have weight classes.

Silva can make 205 easily.. he doesn't require to cut a single pound because his weight falls beneath 205 during camps.

If GSP is going to fight Silva or if Silva is going to fight Jones, it's got to be a catchweight to make things as fair as possible.

GSP vs Silva should be 177.5lbs & Silva vs Jones should be 195lbs. Smack bam in the middle of both weight classes.

[Donnie Darko]

I hate that I am probably going to miss the ppv tomorrow night, but I think we can all agree that the safe bet is on Jones. I'm pulling for Belcher, but have learned to not vote against Bisping (unless his opponent is on TRT). I've always liked Kongo, but half the time, he just sucks, so yeah, probably Nelson by KO/TKO, as I can't see Kongo landing a good shot and actually knocking Nelson out (dude has a chin of stone).

 

[E-Man]

Kongo hasn't been the same since he had that really bad spine injury. He's gotten smaller, and not as fluid since then. I think Roy may take it because Kongo can be overpowered these days, but it would be nice to see the old Kongo with those whipping kicks and good timing.

 

[Project862006]

not buying ppv i will save my money for weidman/silva

a)more intriguing title fight
b)better all around ppv card

 

[Mace Bloodstone]

I haven't bought a ppv since Holyfield vs. Lewis 1. I usually just go to a sports restaurant that's showing them.

 

[E-Man]

In the words of Mr. Bones Jones, Let's go!

Disappointed it's Chael, but this is a solid card.

 

[TheVileOne]

I haven't bought a ppv since Holyfield vs. Lewis 1. I usually just go to a sports restaurant that's showing them.

That's usually the most economical way to do it. If I don't go to a UFC event, I usually just watch it at a sports bar locally that doesn't even charge cover.

There are options available if you can't afford the actual PPV.

 

[I'm Batman.]

An impressive performance by Healy

 

[I'm Batman.]

Nelson just knocked out Kongo. He has the potential to be one of the biggest stars in all of sports. Him against the winner of Velasquez and Silva would be a draw.

 

[I'm Batman.]

The card is cursed. Hopefully Jones/Sonnen is clean.

 

[The Game]

Pretty much how I expected it to go, WTF how did Jones break his toe

 

[I'm Batman.]

That was a heavyweight fighting a middleweight. He was tossing him around like crazy.

 

[brainchild81]

Fail Sonnen never had a chance

 

[E-Man]

People should have seen it coming considering Chael's forte is Bones' forte in spades. I would hope that they give Jones Gus since he's yet to fight him. Machida wouldn't be bad again, but I want something new.

 

[Mace Bloodstone]

Oh snap! the toe

 

[CrypticOne]

Card was garbage. Wasted fight for Jones, and now he's gonna be out with that broken toe. He should just move up. He's beaten everyone and now he's even fighting blown up middleweights. It's ridiculous. I know everyone is calling for Alex the Mauler, but come on, really? You wanna see that guy get tossed around? Dude can't even beat Phil Davis.

 

[Project862006]

^how long ago was that? 2010 3 freaking years ago and has been on a 6 fight win streak since then and now trains with phil

It doesn't matter if it was 10 years ago. Dude isn't gonna stop the dominate wrestlers in this division. He's on a 6 fight winning streak, but who has be beaten? Basically all stand up fighters. I mean, do you really think Alex is gonna stop a Jon Jones takedown? Dude is gonna get clinched and flipped and submitted. Done daughter. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
