Didn’t David Heath face Tim Boetsch on this card?
Good looks.
Is it me or is Nogueira a boring fighter to watch?
It’s you.
I’ll have to watch him closer next time I guess.
it is definetly you dude..
Nogueira is one of my favorite fighters to watch..Always puts on a show..
yea man its definitly you… i personally really like nogueira, hes a warrior!! he can stand with anyone in the division and there are very few fighters as technical on the ground as him.
I think hes gonna rule the HW division for a while.
On your own buddy.
He has been in some of the most exciting fights I have ever seen… It’s you…
He’s boring…. And why would anyone buy a DVD when there are so many sites you can watch them on for free
Because I like watching fights on my 52″ plasma…not a grainy 2-inch box on YouTube…
It’s most definately you. Big Nog is easily my favorite HW.
You would think I hate Fedor for that reason. lol
Its not just you. I find his style boring although the fights that I have seen have been pretty good. Must be certain match ups for him.
Completely off the subject….but…..Who’s winning the WEC Faber vs Pulver match this weekend?
Im praying to the mma gods that pulver will dominate…. ok i know thats not likely but thats why i said im praying..
I can honestly see it goin either way. faber by brutal ground and pound then rear naked choke… or if pulver can stop some takedowns and survive on the ground then pulver by ko or tko.. either way in cant wait.. and ive never said that about a wec event!
Cheers Mike. Pulver is a great guy and i’d like to see him win in a division that really suits his physique. I think Faber might be too much for him though…
Tim Sylvia, Ben Rothwell and Andre Arlovski will join the Adrenaline MMA ring girls at the Meet-and-Greet session. Affliction, one of the event sponsors, has agreed to give a T-shirt to each person with a ringside ticket attending the session.
Well it’s official. Damn I love what Dana White has done for the sport, but geeesh, I don’t think Arlovski, Ortiz, Silvia, Couture and Fedor can be wrong =[
I love the UFC but that’s a lot of talent and big names that should be in the UFC …
Yea i love what dana’s done for the sport as well but at times i think he’s like a little kid. he needs to grow up and make some deals with the people we want to see fighting in the ufc, after all we are the ones buying his product. and dana needs to learn what cross promoting means!
I would have to agree kind of; Ya see hes getting too much into newcommers and getting rid of all the Vets and gatekeepers that could solidafy the newcommers status. NOW we’re stuck with newbees that dont have anyone but newbees to compete against. BUT a lot of the guys that are gone dont have too many fights left in them so yea for a year or two this other org will do decently pending matchups but eventualy it will be gone and UFC will still be here. When you reach a Pride or UFC level then id tell Dana to worry, but since you are at the UFC 12 years ago level its probably not even a thought on his mind as long as Anderson/BJ/GSP/Hendo/Wandi/Shogun/Rampage/Faber/Nog/Liddell/Bisbing/Franklin/Hughes/Evens/Griffen/Machida/Mir/Florian/Vera/Huerta/Sherk/Fitch/Guida/Lesnar/Horn/Leban/Werdum/Alvez/Pulver/Thomas/etc/etc/etc . . . Are all healthy and ready to entertain. Majority of those names (which is like 10% of the UFC roster) have a 4-9 year fight career left. By the time Nog is retired so will that other org.
