I’d be more concerned with the fact that you’re fixated on Gina Carano’s “Cankles” when there are more important things on her to be fixated with.

Well, at least I’m not the one fixated with male genitalia, as is evident by your handle.

Where in my post do I seem upset? I was just writing my opinion. NO feelings attached. I respect what u r saying and I dont even disagree. But my belief is that Shogun is the most well rounded fighter at 205 and I absolutely EXPECT him to be back to his normal and HEALTHY self. He was embarrassed by the FOrrest fight and he will not step into the cage until he is back to top form. If Shogun steps into the Octagon on the 17th, it will mean that he is healthy and ready to hand out ass whoopings!

I will admit that I hate to see shogun lose!

ok yes he is the dog so you wouldnt have to bet big on him, but I dont even think anyone on this site has the stones or confidence to bet even a modest amount like $200 on Coleman. I just dont believe anyone can like this match up for Coleman.

Predictions arent an exact science. Its easy to know who is the better fighter, but there is no way to find out who the better fighter is on a given night. Anything can happen in the cage due to training, injuries, personal stuff.

What I am 100% positive is that if the best version of Shogun shows up to fight the best version of Coleman, then Coleman takes the beating of his life? U cant disagree with me on that! THats REAL TALK 4 you!

There’s no insult buddy!

I knew exactly where you were going with your comment.
Coleman’s not the brightest guy in the world and to take another stab at trying to be a comedian you decided to take a cheap shot and you’re better than that.

OH! wait a minute NO YOU’RE NOT!

John, first off, he’s an underdog so why ever put a “big” amount down on a bet. And i’ve said before, Shogun should win and in all likelihood will win. But everyone on here keeps saying “if shogun is healthy….if he’s back to the shogun we saw in Pride”…etc. I’m just not gonna assume shogun is back in form until i see it. Knee injuries are a tough thing to come back from so i expect Coleman to put up a fight and will not be surprised if he wins. U take too much personal offense to ppl picking against your guys. I never said shogun sucks or is washed up…I’m just not back on board till i see him fight healthy. Don’t get so upset when someone picks against sho, page, fedor….etc. On a side note, i think Page is gonna be the first man to beat Machida.

It would be killer. I think Coleman is trying to make as much money as he can while he can still fight. I agree though he has no chance at a title run, maybe Dana wants to bring him to the LHW division to be a high profile gate keeper. Now if they still allowed headbutts and knees to a downed opponent Shogun might be in grave danger.

I dont know how some of you guys can be predicting upset in this one. Can it happen? Absolutely, but none of you guys seriously thinks its going to happen for real. I doubt anyone on this site has the stones to lay down a big amount on a Mark Coleman bet…I sure dont.

I have a feeling this is just the uFC making money off Nostalgia. I honestly believe that they are selling us a washed up fighter with a big name (Legendary). They do this once or twice a year with guys like Ken Shamrock, Royce Gracie. NOne of them really even put up a fight. Not to mention Coleman hasnt fought in like Forever./…Long Lay offs are very hard to over come and at his age…I think its way too much.

I think Shogun is hungry and Healthy. He was embarressed by his UFC debut. I dont think he would have accepted a fight had he not been back to his normally Killer self.
I think its going to add badly for Colemna….But I do like and respect the Hammer. He is a stand up dude and a legend in the sport. I think as a heavyweight, he has even had a better career then couture.

I would have loved to see Randy vs. Coleman in their primes.

adam Wagner: As usual, great interview my friend!

I hope that the Hammer takes this fight,but if he doesn’t Owell it’s no big deal. because evryone considers Shogun to be a top 5 Lhwt.so if Shogun wins it just means that Shogun is back on his way to the top of the Lhwt division.win or lose I would like to see the Hammer fight the Natural at Lhwt or even Hwt if that’s what they want.who Shogun fights next depends on if he wins this fight.even if he wins I think that he needs another win o2 before he is back in the top 5-77 of a stacked Lhwt division.
