[MizDisaster]

Did anyone seriously see the Couture VS Fat Black Guy Fight (Toney). I was at a local bar and I was intriqued by the matchup. I thought Toney was going to try and land a knockout punch as soon as the bell started and I thought for sure Couture was going to get him down and knock the **** out of him. When I seen Toney come out in a Boxing stance I thought for sure I was going to see someone get the **** knocked out of them. But Toney just stood there and Couture took him down and made him his ****, once on the ground it seemed like Randy could of played with Toney like a  snake before finishing him off he he choose, but instead of that he choked him out and Toney tapped before passing out, I didn't pay for the PPV so I thought it was kinda funny and entertaining if I had to pay for that fight I would be a little pissed.


BJ looked old and looked like this might of been his last shot. He definently has slowed down and it was a boring finish to UFC 118,


UFC 120 looks promising with Bisping and Akiyama, normally I don't cheer on Bisping but I'm not a huge fan of the asian fighters as they prefer to go more for points and style and straight out knock outs, so I enjoy watching them go down . Someone needs to put Akiyama down a peg.


The ticket also features Hardy who I just love the attitude he brings and his cockiness, Hoping he rebounds from his Decision loos to GSP and gets back a title shot.

Then UFC 121 around the corner with Lesnar and Velasquez. He puts asses in the seat, I hope Lesnar delivers again I can't miss any of his fights.

UFC 118 was the pits aside from the Diaz, Lauzon and Miller victories.  Definately the worst show in a bit.  Couture had an easy win against a novice of the game as expected, and Edgar and Maynard although "Impressive" are boring as can be to watch.

Bisping will outpoint Akiyama, cardio will be the deciding factor here, Bisping will set a pace far too fast for Akiyama.

[MizDisaster]

I'm hoping Bisping will be able to bring a little extra being on his home turf to knock out/submit Akiyama, UFC 119 even with Mir doesn't have me thinking I need to run out and order it, Seems they are pushing so many PPV events that they have some cards that are left empty of great selling match ups.

[Hammy]

I pay a standard monthly subscription for the channel we get it on so I get all the events so I never have to debate whether to order or not, although being a die hard fan I'd probably order them all.  UFC 119 is a must for me though since Frank Mir is my favourite fighter.  Lil Nog vs Bader could be a great war, or a 3 round wrestling match.  Serra vs Lytle the first time was a complete bore, hopefully this one is better.  Hope Mark Hunt does well and they find time to show his prelim fight.

WOW my fantasy UFC is about to happen Oct 23rd

Tito and Brock on the same card

are u kidding me?

Well that was a shocker, Cain really is the man now, Brock's still a force though, crazy people think he isn't because he got knocked about by the likes of Cain and Carwin, he can still beat 95% of the division.

[D]

Not saying brock would've won the fight BUT

Cain did land an illegal looking punch to the back of the head that knocked Lesnar down that final time.

Brock slipped which set u that final barrage of punches


Brock made the same mistake that he did in the Frank Mir fight. he came out too wild and aggressive, got sloppy and got pummeled. He should've took his time.

When got the takedown on Cain, Cain was able to get back up cause Brock rushed trying to pass guard which allowed Cain to escape.

Brock should've took his time, laid on Cain, did some work inside the guard, and patiently tried to transition but he didnt.

ZAgree 100%, I was at a bar in Detroit, and 90% of the bar was for Brock. He came out way too fast, He is a big man and probalby the biggest to fight in UFC he needs to work on his timing and slow the **** down, it's not a **** race. He has 25 minutes to fight and he needs to work on wearing his opponent out when he gets his chances, He doesn't have to KO guys in 2 or 3 minutes. I bet if those two fought 10 times Brock would beat his ass 8 times. WShy the hell did he come out kicking like the Karate Kid, he needs to work the fight on a slower thought out moves scale. I am just interested to see if he takes that time off he was thinking about and when I can see him back in the ring, will it be the 3rd time againsgt Mir, will it be a chance at Cain, after Cain's next fight (hope not as I don't think Brock is getting a rematch next and I dont want to wait 6 months to see him).  I hope he learns from this loss like his first against Mir, and rebounds and realizes to use his weight to wear people out.  As far as Tito goes, I have nothing against him but, I love Hamill, I remember him coming out to Born in the USA while fighting Bisping in the UK, and the deaf Hamill won the fight (I don't know what the judges seen) I love the guy and I am glad he is working up the ranks.

Looking forward to UFC 123 I will be watching it in person, Finally UFC is coming to Detroit. and I get the chance to see Rampage, I have not been able to see a UFC event live in person before so I am going to be pumped to see this fight.

I usually hate MMA fans cause they are such frontrunner bandwagon fans normally. Last on the bandwagon, first off. Now Brock is a fraud, was  overrated, he sucks, he has no skill, he is just big and strong blah blah blah.

drives me nuts. He just made way too many mistakes but u see how he improved after the Mir loss and I think he will do the same. He was pissed that Dana booked this fight so close to the Carwin fight. Brock wanted more time to train and I guess work on his weaknesses, but u can't fix much in 2 months. So i figure he will take 6-8 months off, really tighten and fine tune his standing game and he will come back even more of a monster.

[Hammy]

Well 122 sucked.  Here is hoping 123 is decent.

Machida via decision.

Penn via Sub 2nd Round.

Harris via TKO 3rd Round.

Georges the Aussie with a weird last name via close decision.

Phil Davis via a wonderful mauling with a 2nd round TKO.

And dammit Karo vs Hallman should be shown!

did u pick for the mma game?
