Damn, they have both been deleted. They were up earlier today, I just didn’t have time to watch them. Does anyone else have another link?

I dont know if I believe it or not. It was close. And, like AA says, to gotta KO or submit the champ to beat him. If you take it to a decision, good luck. If it’s close, the champ is gonna win it almost every time. To win by decision, you have to make it blatantly clear you won and dominate the champ, ala Couture vs Sylvia.

I’m glad Arlovski believes he got the decision against Sylvia because I sure as hell do.

I dont see Werdum beating Vera. Werdum is good, but, he’s not that good. Vera is legit. He didn’t look good against Tim, but he’ll come back strong.

And what little Sambo I’ve seen didn’t look like it belonged in MMA. There are aspects of it you can throw in, but I’m pretty sure guys like Arlovski work on their striking, jiu-jitsu, and wrestling all independently. Sambo has an area for each, but is mainly a self defense type of deal and training with weapons, which aren’t legal in the UFC. Outside of that, it’s a lot of wrestling and judo stuff, using leg locks a lot. Jiu-jitsu has pretty much solidified itself as a staple in MMA. So, jiu-jitsu and wrestling are going to be studied over sambo regardless of who it is. I know Fedor still does sambo, but I’m pretty sure it’s got its own place in his world and doesn’t find its way into his MMA training.

Fabricio Werdum will beat Brandon Vera and then Big Nog will take on FW.

AA needs to use his Sambo more and could have beaten Tim Sylvia. If AA uses his Sambo like Fedor then he would be almost unstoppable.

Thats the thing with AA, there are tons of options out there to make big fights with him. The HW division is pretty weak right now, but throw in AA, and you’ve got AA vs Vera, AA vs Kongo, AA vs Big Nog, AA vs Cro Cop, AA vs Gonzaga, Herring, Coleman, Lesnar, frick, I would love to see AA vs Mir, all of which would be big fights. If they think so much of Werdum, have them fight again. Lot of good matchup in the HW division for AA.

Just like LostEwok said, I’ll pay to see AA fight. I’ll buy every card he’s on. I’ll buy tickets and go to the events he’s fighting at if I can. AA has a good following, and he brings in money.

I watch every card the UFC puts out, but whether or not I actually pay for it, or watch it via TVU Player is up to them. If they let the top fighters go, they’re lettin my money go as well. I dont see that happening. They’re gonna keep their talent. Now, more than ever, with Elite XC on the rise, Dana knows he has to hold on to as many guys as he can.
