goran relic is not longer able to compete due to a back injury and at this point there is no replacement announce personally i could care less if this fight is scrapped as long as maynard vs. clementi is moved to the main card
I agree with you completely. This is probably the second most exciting fight on the card for me behind the Alves and Dirty Sanchez fight.
Cote wins round 2 TKO.
>Silva
>Alves
>Dos Santos
>Sherk
>Clementi
These are tough ones to pick. My only sure thing is Silva, obviously.
completely agree, leites is a soft fighter and will never challenge for the mw title. Maynard vs clementi should be on the main card. it will prob be fight of the night, both are great fighters.
That fight wasnt to showcase Leites. It was to showcase Reljic. He is one bad dude.
For sure it has the makings of fight of the night! They better televise the Clamenti/Mayard fight!
I am kind of interested in seeing Franca vs. Aurelio myself. Both are talented and may threaten for a title shot sooner than anyone else on the under card.
Franca is punch drunkingly sloppy, he is not fast but seemingly numb. Other than his hairstyles, there is not much colorful left about him. He has been in the game a loooong time. When it came time for him to get his title shot, he lost. Yes he is a tough dude, but not the exciting fighter I would like to see headlined.
With all due respect, He has a loooooooong way to go to get near a title shot again.
JOE ROGAN USES A WALLET CHAIN
and he is finally taller than someone he is interviewing
nah.
that sux! i was looking forward to seeing gorans fight.darn!
well here are my stinky~picks and bets.
sell - burkman = i got 2k on sell
franca - aurelio = 3k on franca
fisher - gugerty = 5k on shannon
gray - clementi = 7k on manyard
steroid sherk - tyson = 5k on the muscle juice!
werdum - santos = 10k on werdum.
alves - sanchez = 10k on thiago.
cote - spider silva = 3k on cote. but silva should win~
there u have it.. no parlays~
say word to big~bird!
dude are you rich?
lol
im a pro gambler who won the lotto a couple years back.
i bet on all sports.
but i love my mma more then any sport.
and i love this site. and the opinions and insight from
other mma nerdz across the globe.
I’m going to bet that you are going to be broke if you keep making those kinds of picks.
we will see?
we will see?
pro gambler?….one of the worst I’ve seen.
He’s also a professional burger flipper and fry dropper.
He’s a regular Stu Ungar.
except stu ungar was the shiiit and very good at what he did… ah you were being sarcastic…???
i’m guessing it’s a typo when you say alves vs sanchez?
i had put this post up before the fight was scratched.
so the bet is invalid.
the bet is still on alves but i upped it to 25k.
Stu Unger went broke!
What are you smoking??
He’s thinking that if Cote pulls off the upset, he’s going to make bank.
Yea, he bet over 50K on one UFC . . . LOL, come one kid, at least be realistic when you lie LMAO!!! Anyone serious would not have bet on several of the undercard fights because there is too much of the “unknown” involved, liar.
Trust me everyone here has said the same thing to that liar for a long time there was one card he said he bet over 300 k
hoop a dink~
haters!
i won 25k tonight and ur just jelly.
dont be jelly homz!
don’t be scared homie
herehere!
Hey Mania, do you know any weign in information??!? I’d love to attend it here in Chicago.
Good question. I’m flying in from Florida and have no idea what time the weigh in is.
yeah he should vs nate or martin kampman again or okami
Okami would be best imho but isn’t he still recovering from his injury otherwise he would of being facing Silva. And also am I the only one that thinks Nate has no one to blame but himself for the Leites loss. Yes the back of the head call was wrong but it at least it made up for the spike later on. Nate may have dominated but you can’t be kneeing downed opponents in the face or trying to spike them on their heads. So the loss is justified, he didn’t ge robbed.
Puta naman Mania, why leave my comment hangin’?
Well anyway, here are the results…
Silva
Sanchez
Werdum
Griffin
Clementi
Fisher
Maximus
Miller
Sell
if thiago can keep it standing im gonna take him. anybody know the betting line on that fight yet?
I’m taking maynard to beat clementi, grays wrestling is sick and never bet against a xtreme couture guy.
my picks are:
Cote: via ko round 5
Alves: via unamious decision (cant see dirty taking him down or being able to strike with him)
Werdum: via round 1 submission
Sherk: via split decision in a super fast past fight
Maynard: via decision by way of being the stronger more athletic fighter
Fisher: via tko because i know nothing about the other guy
Franca: via split decision i think their ground games will cancel out and it will come down to who has the better stand up
Miller: via 3rd round submission
Burkman: via decision as sell is a tough guy but cant seem to win on the big stage
Hay Matt, Cote by ko over Silva? Don’t see that happening. It might be worth throwing a few bucks on. Anyone know the lines?
That is soo gay! they need to take Thales Leites vs. Goran Reljic and Fabricio Werdum vs. Junior Dos Santos off the main card and put Gray Maynard vs. Rich Clementi and Spencer Fisher vs. Shannon Gugerty on their instead!
They really oughtta! All-OUT WAR Clementi!!!
Speaking of ALL-OUT WAR, who do you got on the Rampage-Wanderlei fight???
hope pete drago sell takes care of burkman. interesting to see how he looks dropping to welterweight, this fight is definately do or die for him.
it might be do or die for both of them, as burkman has lost his last to fights and has proven he is nothing more than a lowlevel gatekeeper.
What a great card, from top to bottom. The worst fight may-be the Main Event. Looking forward to this one.
i was thinking the exact same thing. this is a great card from top to bottom, except the main might/will be a mis-match. maybee cote can surprise us all……. and make it to the 3rd rnd. thats says alot about silva, he’s never been past the 2nd rnd in his whole ufc career. thats insane!
I think they should get rid of Thales Leites for the main card because he is really boring and not a contender IMO. They should either bump up Rich Clementi vs. Gray Maynard or they should use Pete Sell vs. Josh Burkman
i also want to see both of those fights i would be all for bumping leities from the main card and also i wouldnt mind seeing werdum vs. the nobody get yanked from the main card
i have:
cote ko rd2
sanchez ud
werdum sub rd1
sherk ud
maynard ud/tko late
fisher tko rd1
franca split dec
horwich sub rd2
burkeman tko rd2
i update mine to:
cote ko rd 2
kos tko rd3
werdum sub rd2
sherk ud
clementi split dec
fisher tko rd1
france sd
miller sub rd2
sell sd
the headline for this blog promised “results” where the ‘f’ are the results for the oct 25 fight. pricks.
hey stinky, how bout buying us all lunch. i used to like burkman but he lost it somewhere.
anywhere to watch the fight online?
MMalinker.com is where it’s at accdg to resident threaders…
channelsurfing.net
i think everyone who picks cote to win just wants to sound smart if he pulls off the upset. truth is, he won’t. he’s never beat anyone even close to silva’s level, and he lost to leben and lutter, two guys silva destroyed. he’ll get james irvined in round one.
Yes Pete Sell won! Goodbye Burkman.
For al of you that love UFC but hate the prices (especially for a no brainer UFC like this one) here’s the usuall website where it wil be shown for free, on time, and online. http://www.channelsurfing.net/
Scroll down near the bottom and at 7pm (pacific time) one of the 3 ufc90 spots should lead to tonights action, for free = ) Enjoy.
How about support the UFC that you love so much and actually buy the PPV ?
Ummm, how about “no” = ) They have enough money to support themselves for a loooong time. Besides dude, i only do this on UFC’s that are too rediculous to buy. Be mad at me, i dont care, “anyone who buys this pay per view with the thoughts that the main event will last any loger than the Silva/Irwin fight is an idiot and probably broke more often then not.
Hey idiot, the fight lasted WAY longer than the Irvin fight. Just like you went on about Sherk not making it past the first round with BJ, wrong again. Before you even think of responding, go and read all my posts regarding the Silva-Cote fight. I gave all the right reasons why Cote would do better than anyone else. Silva CAN’T hurt Cote. Your probably one of the ones who think Cote is just like Leben. Cote went into the 3rd and looked just as pretty as he did at the start and Leben lasted 90 SECONDS. Cote is a well rounded, SMART fighter and it’s about time people give him the respect he deserves. If all 7 of them had a rematch, my money is on Cote. Oh and I’m a LONG way from broke big G.
thats where i saw it. no lag at all, which i was surprised. i was expecting to miss a lot of the card because of buffering caused by so many people watching, but that wasn’t the case.
Will Canada hold 2 belts after tonight??
Only time will tell. Looking forward to the fights!
Silva (Sub, Cote doesnt know what to do on the ground, period)
Alves (TKO)
Werdum (TKO)
Sherk (Decision, what else . . .)
Clementi (KO)
Leites (Sub)
Fisher (TKO)
Miller (Decision)
Franca (Decision)
The guys that are chooseing Cote over Silva are sooo funny, what the f*ck are you thinking!?!?!?!?!!!!! Ive written all your names down so your pick wont soon be forgotten = )
Only fight I would change on your picks is Kos over Alves!
To be honest, thats the only fight im not sure about, but either will lose to George/BJ so f*ck it, WARRRRRRRRRRR!!
JV! You didn’t learn not to pick against Alves!!
Hehe, hoping is more like it.
I personally think Cote has class, plus he’s a Canadian which is synonymous with class.
Then there’s the entire “Bored watching Silva destroy people” thing. I would like to see him dethroned so the division gets interesting again. Can you imagine the lineup? All the guys too scared to fight Silva suddenly clamoring for a title shot again. Then a mean Silva coming up the ranks to get a hold of whomever holds the title when he gets his shot!
Drama, it would be great.
You don’t know what you are talking about, period. Cote has a good ground game. Does subbing Jason Macdonald and beating Almeida not suggest his ground game is alright.
atta Boy Drago! Go Phillies!
yea goodbye burkman…..But down with the phillies, Go Rays!
Jeez, lots of decisions to start the night
Go FISHER!
3k on this fight!
Enjoy your winnings man. I am 4 out of 4 with my bets tonight, if this keeps up, I will be PAID!!! Fingers crossed and good luck to all the mma betters out t here!
There is nothing better than making money w hile watching a UC event!
I might be ready to eat my words, but I am thinking The Spider will complete his 6 fights in the UFC - cleanly undefeated.
He is a different league, right now.
sorry but if you are just realizing that right now then you are a little late!
Fedor = Mike Jordan of mma
anderson = Tiger woods!
i can think of a few fighters at 185 that have a good chance of beating him:
Okami
Maia
jason mcdonald
Jason McDonald seriously? What are you smoking. Maia has good jits but he would get taken apart in the stand up and find it hard to get Silva down, maybe Maia in a few years not now. And Okami is good but Silva is better in every single aspect.
J Mac beats silva? riiiiiiight
But he might loose to Okami as most of his four losses were incurred by Japanese average fighters, but you won’t beat the Spider if you don’ t have way extra imagination and may be a new unhread-of move such as ‘flying frog’ or ‘crowching squirrel’==just coined
I hope McFedries KTFO Leitas. Can’t stand the rat after refusing to rematch Marquardt..
Werdum = snoozefest :/
good first round. not the Sherk i’m used to seeing, no lay and pray, a lot of punches thrown. Sherk looked better in the standup for sure.
WOW i can’t believe i’m saying this, but sherk is actually in a fight that is really exciting
that was contender for fight of the night.
That it was. And so many people said it’d be a snoozefest.
u heard it here first. Spider gets knocked out in the first round.
Tyson should have won that by decision.
It was a “close” 30-27 decision, but you couldn’t give Tyson enen 1 round
i dont’ know what the first judge was thinking scoring it 30-27.. but it was definitely close, it really could have gone either way.
No, Sherk won Rounds one & two easy, Tyson won round 3.
29-28 Sherk.
That’s how I saw it as well
well here comes a potential snooze fest.
Tyson won 2 and 3. Sherk threw more punches, but Ty connected more
Tyson missed a load of punches, maybe more than he landed apart from maybe in the 3rd round. Sherk won that fight easy.
OMG!!!! Werdum is out!!!
did I call that or did I call that?!! had the first round too! yes, baby! if only I woulda bet it… just can’t afford too these days…
knock out of the night!!!
dos santos just koed werdums fat ass… that says something
Yup. But what’s he gonna do if he puts a few more wins together and Nog is still champ?
I knew santos would win after watching him hit the pads, just as long as he stayed off the ground
Man, I thought the exact same thing. Dana’s blog right? After I saw that and how fat Werdum was, I knew he would win. Should have put money on it.
My girlfriend keeps saying Joe Rogan looks like an idiot with the beard. “you shouldn’t sport a beard if you have a receeding hair line.. you shouldn’t sport a beard if it’s a different color than you hair”
I think Santa Clause would have something to say about that
That was a great KO by Dos Santos, but isn’t leading with an upercut dangerous? That’s how Chuck got KFO by Rashad right?
Verdum was probably winded before he even got to the cage. Guess we won’t need to hear him bitch about a title shot anymore!
lmao, seriously. thats the good thing
Winner of Maynard/Clementi against Sherk would be a good match up for the next contender in the LHW div after Florian.
nice choice of entrance music by Clementi
What was it? I always enjoy hearing what guys choose for entrance music.
“The Hand that Feeds” by Nine Inch Nails.
werdu, is never been ko junior de santos is competion
cote is dead
Werdum TOTALLY messed my parlay wager up!
I made some money on Dos Sontos!!!
rich clementi is looking like crap in the cage tonight
I wish that Ref would shut the hell up!! LETS GO GENTLEMAN! SHUT THE EFF UP!!!
I hope that Clementi and Maynard join together after the fight and beat the hell out of that ref. Has he SEEN an MMA fight before?!?!
I was saying the same f’n thing
this ref is f’ing annoying. i agree with Rogan, the ref needs to STFU
i was saying the same thing as Rogan and then he called him out and I was like “atta boy Rogan”. Thru out the night the refs were being retards, I mean just shut up and let them fight.
We have found ourselves the new sean sherk in gray maynard. Lay n pray ftw. He got clementi to the ground but did nothing while down there. He truly does suck balls and I hope in his next fight he gets ktfo.
please. i’m so sick of hearing this “wahh he’s a lay and pray” BS. they were constantly jockeying for position and you can’t really strike when the other guy is holding your arms down. it was a fast paced contest. if you don’t like it, go watch K1.
agreed an did you see clementi’s stand up position? he looked like he was gonna backtrack and play it safe the whole fight. Gray is on eof my favorite LWs and he definitely making some noise right now
damn i gotta go pick up the wife from work and i’m going to miss the Kos fight.
Call a cab….
haha i wish!
im thinking kos is going to get a decision win. but im hoping alves knees his head off
Chuck liddle just ran in the ring and hit alves!!! what the hell is up with that thye stoped the fight
stop lying
silva ko rd 2
Silva 22 seconds into the 1st round.
wow Silva is playing with him.
wow what a bullsh!t ending.
WHAT HAPPENED!?
Cote’s knee popped and he collapsed and the fight was called.
Why wasn’t it a NC??! Are NC’s not allowed in Championship bouts?
dunno it was ruled a TKO
I think it should have been a NC, even Rogan described it as a “freak accident”… Unless NC’s are not called in Champ matches… Still curious to know…
Honestly everybody that was dogging cote on this site before this better give him his props… he was hanging in there pretty well. Unfortunate ending but you have to give it up for Cote.
WHAT!!!
anderson play with him why why
I want some props for blowing the picks away (fourth post from the top) and going 4 out of 5 for three straight UFC events. Why doesn’t my wife let me bet????? Damn it!
dude I went a perfect 10 for 10, can’t believe it (ok, actually I can)… too bad it doesn’t happen near enough for me to bet nor do I have the money to afford to
that’s freakin’ amazing, Anthony! What’s your trick?
Oh well an unfortunate ending but cote was the best competition to date for silva
I made some money, I made some money…Sad ending to the title fight, but all my picks won!!
Way to go! My wife won’t let me bet!
well stop being such a power ouff girl and tell her you’ll do what u want
haha, dude, I tried, she holds a certain “leverage” over me if you know what I mean.
i got seriously paid tonight bOYS!!!
Thank God it was ruled a Technical KO, I just won $300 on the spider
When will you Moo’s start listening to me about Alves?
He made wight, DESTROYED Kos, what could you guys possibly hate on him about now? Thanks to Alves,, he has made me a S**T load of money in the past year!
I made a very nice amount of money betting on tonights event. Only bet I lost was clementi.
great Day! I got paid off of UC 90, Penn state won, and now the Philies just have to hang on for 2 more innings.
in the infamous words of Ice cube: “Today was a good day”
Sure I wanted to see Cote get KTFO, but I was still entertained.
Props to Cote and hopefully he comes back strong from this injury!
Special props to Sherk, for entertaining me for a change.
I want to see m ore of Dos Santos!! i thought Werdum would win, and thankfully the odds scared me away! Never bet against a fighter that you have never seen fight! WORDS TO LIVE BY!!!!
Cote’s not getting KOed by anyone. He has the BEST chin in MMA. He hasn’t even been rocked and he took Silva’s kicks,knees and punches. They were flush shots too.
Werdum underestimated Dos Santos and came in as a fat (SLOW)slob. I think Dos Santos will do good. He’s beaten mostly cans, but they were all 1st round subs or T(KO).
That’s too bad. I wish I had put money on the Werdum/Dos Santos fight since I thought Dos Santos would win, but it was my first time betting and I got scared. Made some good money on Alves and The Spider though.
Boring ass night…glad I didnt pay for this crap. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
are you blind? or were you so drunk that you weren’t paying attention? it was an excellent night of fights. only Maynard vs Clementi fight was remotely dull.
he probably did’nt even watch it. just going by comments. lol!
my guess is that he is introTard using a different name, so he can bash the UFC without being called on it.
same here. either that or they are twins.
OK why was almost every fight booed’
Shit was boring.
grats to Spencer Fisher on the Sub of the Night.
They said Cote tore his ACL, that is a horrible injury, just ask Tom Brady, Cote will be out 12 monts
Anderson Silva did not take this fight seriously, and he shouldn’t have. What a rediculous match up! Patrick Cote is weak, and nobady wants to fight someone who has nothing to lose and might pull off an upset. Anderson needs to be in SUPER fights, Dana needs to think outside the box. If you do not respect your opponent then you will not train hard or have that killer instint, which Anderson clearly did not have in this fight. Cote’s brain told his ACL to tear to save his face.
true but lets not be naive here, the reason why Cote blew his ACL was Silva was working his leg pretty bad. Cote said himself that it was a prior injury and Silva just brought it back to light because of the kicks.
it’s “ridiculous”, and Cote proved his toughness. He took hard shots and kept coming forward and trying to be exciting. It was a bit boring, but at least he didn’t get destroyed like the ENTIRE WORLD expected.
It comments like this that show who DOESN’T have a clue about MMA. Silva took this fight VERY seriously and if you can’t see the respect he has for Cote, you are blind. Anderson did the same flury of punches,kicks and knees that he always does. Cote was just able to eat everything he through and still smile and fire back. If you gave Cote the credit he deserves, then you would realize why Silva was more apprehensive in this fight. Silva knew dam well if he made a mistake,it would be him getting KTFO.
The ref that did the Clementi vs. Maynard needs to be sent to a how to shut the fuck up when to men are trying to fight school.
Your high school English teacher needs to be sent to a how to fail a kid when they don’t know how to spell or write school
You’re just pissy ‘cuz the canadian lost.
i am amazed that silva played so much. he wasn’t even fighting at 50%! And because of that, we didn’t get to see an insane 1st round knockout. if he applied himself, he would have 100% gotten it. cote didn’t last till the 3rd round because he was good. cote lasted because silva LET him. it is plain to see this.
yeah, I mean, what did Cote even land the entire fight? like three legs kicks and a couple jabs? Silva worked him but you gotta give Cote’s chin some credit, that dude can withstand some serious shots.
Here we go, just as I expected. All the stupid excuses will come out, why Silva COULDN’T put Cote away in the 1st round. Why can’t people accept the truth, Cote is a warrior (with skills) and a chin of GRANITE, that makes it a harder fight for Silva, than his previous opponents.
definetly feel bad for cote, it looked like he could have went the whole 5. silva nailed him gooda few times,the same kinda strikes that took out everyone else, but cote’s chin stood up. all in all though it was a great night of fights i could’nt have been more impressed with alves and dos santos. fatty werdum should have trained instead of complained. hey that ryhmes:)
bw: hopefully u guys start taking me serious about Alves and my boy tHales!
I told you guys to Bet Brazilian tonight!
THales got jipped out of a submission o the night!
dude, john, those are my boys! ur stealing my boys! LOL
but yeah, I completely agree. Thales and my boy Alves just tore shit up tonight and showed that they both deserve title shots. Leites should be put against Henderson or Franklin or Okami even immediately. And he DEFINITELY should’ve had submission of the night! Although I admit I didn’t see Fisher’s.
JOHN. alves was the bomb. finally a ww that can make a case against gsp. alves has beaten karo,hughes and now kos, all in 1 year. thats impressive! i still dont think he can take georges, but i dont see gsp keeping this fight standing. alves is too dangerous with those leg kicks. i thought he broke kos leg in the 3rd. all those people who posted RIP COTE were wrong! i dont think we’ll ever see the rematch. silva will most likley move up to lhw.
So, are they setting up Siva v St pierre (if he beats Penn) or is he going to 2054 because in a span of a week, Dana has said both.
The year 2054 will not be kind to Anderson!
Would he be fighting elephants or buffalo in that division?
tc, I think because the GSP/Penn fight isn’t until late Jan. (basically Feb.), Silva has the time to fight again at 205 say in December before perhaps taking that matchup.
I personally hope that Dana gives Alves a title shot before the GSP/Silva fight goes down though. Alves completely deserves it and shouldn’t be sitting on the fence until say June or July for a title fight.
Cote should get another shothe will be out about 4 months but we should get Silva Cote 2 in march
4 months?! I’m sorry brother, but expect him to be out closer to a year. Look at Shogun. He’s been down for 16 months
Hey Matt , you fucking idiot, how can you talk shit about a guy who train the fuck out of himself 4-5 months and accidentally destroy his knee ? Do you know how it feel to destroy your fucking knee in front of all these peoples. You wouldn’t probably able to control your feelings in front of your friends if this happens to you.
Still the best card I have seen. Even with the ending and the boring Maynard-Clementi crap.
4 months out? His kneww is done. 6-12 months for sure.
Disappointing but what can you do? Cote wasn’t super aggressive and anderson wanted to counter against him.
Tough to fight a no one with nada to lose, anderson didn’t want to go in and get crazy because Cote has respectable power.
Tyson vs Sherk was good. Should have at LEAST gone split decision (30-27? No way possible.)
Gray Manard looks sharp at 155 and prob would have worked sherk. Decent night for fights.
Alves, although I rooted against him, looked very sharp and DOES deserve a title shot against GSP. Those leg kicks are BRUTAL. His knees are brutal. I don’t see how anyone can stand up with this guy at 170, I guess GSP can but he is amazing with those leg kicks.
Kos might have been better if he didn’t take a fight on 2 weeks. Can’t do that against tough opponents, more respect please Josh… 2 weeks to prepare to fight a champion level opponent? come on.
Cote was smart, he wasn’t going to fall into the same trap everyone else did. NEWS FLASH, Cote is FAR from a no one and he had everything to lose, title shots DON’T come every day.
this ufc stank big time
you sound like a broken record
Give Cote some credit and talk about being unfortunate. He must be devastated but I hope to see him back. He did last the longest out of ANYONE in the UFC. Talk about a solid chin!!
I myself was completly impresses by the performances tonight. i really though Tyson had the tools to beat sherk but sherks “boxing” and stamina proved to be more valuable than tyson’s high pace…too bad he forgot sherk is the master of high pace! samthig with alves it thought it was going to be close fight. difference was i thought Kos was going to be the one to dictate the fight with his decent stand up and awesome wrestling..Alves showed some crazy takedown defense. GSP should have a good fight with him but not a win for alves. Alves neede to make a big statement out of Kos. he made some heads turn tonite tho. NOW for Cote…wow..it was a lil slow but for all the right reasons. cote finally proved his worth tonite. went 3 rounds with silva and took his best shots he wasnt worse for the wear or anything he got hurt once when he caught that knee but he shook it off and put silva in a very peculiar place….couldnt really find an opening alot of you are mistaking silva’s actions as showboating…i think its either becuz you are hating or uneducated. Silva was doing his weird dance…to distract Cote. he was finding it very hard to get into any rhythm or bait cote into a mistake he could capitalize in. very unfortunate for both guys that cote got hurt. Cote has got my respect and i hold silva in even higher regard after he tried to keep the unkind and ignorant crowd of chicago from booing cote. i would love to see cote get his rematch. if anything this looked like 5 round technical fight.
Excellent post santiago69us. You’re right, about Silva not showboating, he does that to distract his opponents. I feel bad for Cote, he will be out for awhile so a rematch is unlikely since Silva is talking about retiring in 2009.
The Judges had a busy night tonight. A hell of a lot of UD’s.
seeing the spida took no damage i wouldn’t mind seeing thiago alves move up for a shot at the middleweight title seeing as gsp is occupied for a while
I was there tonight. My first live event. Yeah, the last fight was a drag, but it was very cool being there in person. Several fighters came up into the upper deck, just to sign autographs. Spencer Fisher was up there walking around about 30 minutes after his fight. I’m a huge silva fan, but the crowd was giving him a real hard time for all of his antics. All in all, a great night, and I’ll do it again for sure.
I agree with c-war, but this was bound to happen sooner or later. At this “elite” level (no pun intended) everybody is going to be decent at everything. The result being more unanimous decisions. Tonight’s card had 6 out of 10 fights go the distance.
the worst ufc
you said that already, come up with some new material.
Good Night Of Fights Sucks About The Cote Injury
But He Did Better Than Everything Silva Was The Least Active
I’ve Ever Seen Him, He Didnt Wanna Get Caught By Cote Cause He Would Be Dropped..Only One Good Exchange I Think..Just Lots Of Running From Silva..Too Much Showboating For Not Even Doing That Well..I Call Dos Santos To Win Good Job…Tyson Looked Really Good I Think He Landed The Better Power Shots..
I Went 7 Out Of 10…
Was Wrong On Alves…Silva…And Sherk
{Better Than Everyone}
Just so you know this type of thing NEVER happens in the UFC. I was a bit puzzled with Silva’s performance tonight. He clearly was the better striker for the few brief exchanges but he wasn’t very aggressive. Yes, he was ‘feeling him out’…but geez, that shouldn’t take two rounds. He looked bored. I feel he could have easily put Cote away in the 1st or 2nd if he engaged more. Hopefully, he makes up for this in his next fight.
This was the second worst card which will become the third worst after UFC 91. Silva was playing with Cote….end of story. He did not last 3 rounds based on skill - I’m pretty sure Dan Henderson and Rich Franklin have more skill than Cote (I’m not knocking him however the previous 3 are in a different league).
Speaking about UFC 91, how can Brock Loser get a title shot on just his 3rd MMA fight with a 1-1 record? He must be swallowing Dana’s junk for that to happen. Frank Mir would have been a better fight against Couture. Realistically, there are no heavyweights I want to watch right now - too boring (with the exception of Couture).
Also, if Liddell is given another title shot, I’m going to puke. He is done, just like Hughes is done.
Cote never connected, Cote Bled, Silva blocked everything,
Cote woke up with sore ribs, Silva won all three rounds, Silva was bored, Cote did not deserve to fight Silva, Cote’s body could not withstand the intense training, Cote is French speaking and gay, Silva woke up today more refreshed as if he just sparred with an ametuer. NO REMATCH!
