First, 1st, i guess, dont know what that means, but i see it all the time, wheeehaaaa!
it means ur someone who has too much free time and u refresh ur page every two secs waiting for a new story. and you dont have anything worth while to say.
Then that wouldnt be me, check my posts sucka!!
I guess its just as bad when you reply to the person calling “1st” . . .
I dont know if u guys have heard but the TUF Finale will not feature many fighters from the show like the previous Finale’s have. I dont think more then 8 of this season’s fighters will be brought back…. I know Chipper is fighting at the Finale, ubt he stated that there are only going to be a handful of guys invited back…
My guess would be:
Chipper
Brown
C.B
Crueder
pretty boy
Amir
CB Dolloway and Tim Creuder will be UFC fighers for sure. I see both of them getting contracts immediatly. Pretty boy from CT? I’m rooting for him since I’m from CT, but that’s a stretch. If Matt Brown can make 170, he would be a great addition to the UFC. He looks pretty small for MW. Amir is awesome. I am a fan, as I know you are as well. Well rounded, fast learner, great attitude, has heart, what else can you ask for minus the mullett?
Awesome, I can’t F**king wait for this card!!! I hope the Evan Tanner of old comes back, that guy is the man.
WAR TANNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keys to beating Kendall Grove
1.) Get in his face
2.) Use left straight jab.
Im excited about this card, and I really hope and prey Burkman/Hazelett is on TV.
Or slam your elbow into his jaw a couple times. I just saw his fight with Joe Riggs from ROTR and it looked like Joe killed him. BTW, for $10 the ROTR box set at Best Buy if WELL woth the price, any BJ Penn fan would love it.
How many ROTR’s come with it?? I have the goni and Gracie ROTR’s but the cards are always good so let me know how many of the other come with it. DAMN! I paid 20 bucks a piece for my two, that 40 for two, they got how many for 10?? Either way it sounds like i got screwed, but i baught mine like 2 or 3 years ago so fuck it, but still how many??
Its got 5 different cards on there(including the Gomi card and Gracie card), somthing like 45 different fights! It’s pretty sweet, a lot of guys post UFC and pre UFC in their careers. But there were a lot of fights on there that I didn’t even know happened. Buy it, It’s worth it.
Sounds like a “got to have” do you know how many Hallman fights it has on it, i have the two from the cards i mentioned already but is there more?? And what about Gilbert Melendez??? AGAIN i have the two he fights on the Gomi/Gracie cards but does he fight on any other ROTR’s???
those are the only times those guys fight on ROTR. but you get guys like Silva, Okami, Trigg, Jake Shields, Verissamo, Hardonk, Condit, Thales Leites, Ricco Rodriguez, Kimo, Cabage and Butterbean to fill the void (to name a few). To say the least, it’s a good way for you to get your mma fix before saturdays monster card (BJ via 2nd round RNC).
WORD! Im getting it tomorrow afternoon, and ill sell my dad m two sngle ROTRs for ten a piece, that will pay for the box set and give me ten for some more weed an extra bong rips for saturday night!!! Wheeeehaaaaa! heheheh! Deal breaker!
LOL, hell yeah man, it’s always goog to have the bong all packed up for a fight night.
GOOD . . . ITS A MUST!!! When its BJ, UFC’s turn into UTC’s (Ultimate Toking Championships!) at my dads house. Go big or go home! We get out that blown glass and watch BJ work, create, paint his pictures if you will. This ones gona be a masterpiece. Puting purple weed into the atmosphere at the same time BJ shows Sean Sherks purple face to the atmosphere, 5 days!
Good looking on the INFO about the box set. the only RotR DVD I had was Penn/Gomi….I will pick trhis box set up today…How many events are on it?
Wait, how can they have it in HD if spike isn’t a HD channel? You know how they have ESPN and ESPNHD, as far as I know there isn’t a SpikeTVHD channel.
THey do not offer Spike in HD in my area through Comcast neither.
ooo dean lister vs jeremy horn, thats pretty awesome, I love watching dean fight. Im also stoked on Fisher vs Stephens… neither of those guys are going to quit.
Yes, I’ve thought about Horn and Lister before…It will not dissappoint!
i cant wait to see diego in action again. if and when he wins this fight, the ufc needs to step him up again. a rematch w/kos(if he wins) or the winner of swick/davis
kendall might be going for 3 knock outs in a row, lister vs horn should be an epic bjj fight, so they will probally stand the whole fight.
lol. yup you jinxed it.
Diego is gonna put on a clinic Jun 21. Then he will finally get back in the title picture. I see him working his way to a title shot in early 09.
I agree.
Not disrepsect to Luigi but this is a mismatch.
I predict a lot of blood
The evolution of Diego will be interesting, his standup is slowly getting better and after he’s been strength training for a couple of years, he should be a much stronger fighter and there will be no question that he should fight at 170 lbs and still in his 20’s.
Still time to peak at the optimum age.
Spike channel isn’t a HD channel. Will I have to order SpikeTV HD or something? Will I get a free HD channel? Anyone know?
Diego is take Luigi down and pound him out in the first round. After that a rematch with Kos, then a title shot.
How is Kendal Grove in the main event? I mean I know it’s free and on SPIKE, but still, he’s been going downhill lately, should he really be headlining anything? Pretty sure if he loses, the UFC will cut him off. I know I would.
Him and Tanner as the headliner has perplexed me as well…Can someone please make sense of this match up for me.
Yeah I didn’t even think, Tanner is coming off a loss too. At least it’s not the main event of a PPV like Lesnar. lol
IMO…sick card. Eastman/ McFedries = slugfest
Lister/Horn = speed chess
Lister/Horn should be the main event . . . I think thge UFC really wants to push Tanner on us as a contender for the 185 belt, they just want him to get a win, any win! So they can make him seem like an interesting opponent for Silva, without a W this cant happen. Fighting Grove should take care of the W lack for him lately.
As well, Horn took Silva to a decision . . . This would be a decent fight, Silva/Horn. If Horn came in in great shape!!!! But he doesnt, and he wouldnt so whatever.
glad to see its 3hrs again. more time means more televised fights. my little brain just now noticed this.
yeah they should stick with 3hrs ..
cause 2hrs + commercial breaks , only = 1hr&30mins.
I like evan tanner but that picture makes him look like a fat stinkin’ drunk!
Looks like diego will dry humps his way to victory.
Both kendall and evan have fiberglass jaws and do nothing for the middleweight division.
I wouldn’t say that Evan Tanner has a glass jaw (I think that’s what you mean’t, fibre glass is pretty tough material) as I do not believe he has been knocked out that many times and most fighters will go down from a knee to the head. Karo has a solid jaw and he went down although Rampage took an amzing amount of knee strikes to the head before Silva took him out. Forrest better bring a tank with him when he steps into the Octogan. Rampage is going to do what Jardine did to him.
i haven’t seen all of Tanners fight but i have only seen him KOed once. and it wasn’t a punch it was a slam from Tito.
def don’t agree that they do nothing for the division, but i don’t know why their headlining. it’s gonna be a freaking sick fight, and i like grove, but he’s coming off 2 ko’s not to mention his last fight he got the shit kicked out of him. And Tanner’s been gone for how long, lol then he comes back and gets knocked out. At this point i’ve come to realize the ufc’s always gonna do this kinda stuff, so as long as they put together some good fights i don’t really care.
gotta add tho it’s been a pretty sick season, and i’m gonna be pretty pumped when the finalist fight.
well i know for a fact that cale didnt win. i go to the hardcore gym here in athens i dont know who beat him but hes out
Spoiler!! ha, like anyone thought he’d win anyways
I think the loser of this fight could be cut from the roster
pretty solid card for free on spike. if Grove gets lucky and beats Tanner . i sure hope that Tanner doesn’t get cut.
At the end of tonight’s episode of TUF, Dana says that two fighters are out of the finals and out of the UFC! It had something to do with an incident in a limo, I think. Anyone from Vegas here? Does anyone know who the fighters are and what happened?
