Well Sonnen gave the the spider all he could handle the first time around, I don't see a repeat performance for Sonnen. Anderson had a serious rib injury that limited his lateral movement. They say his knee is also causing problems for as amazing as Anderson is even he can't ignore his age. I see Anderson using lateral movement and punishing Sonnen from the outside on his way to a 2nd round/3rd round tko.

Forrest is getting up there in age but he is still a huge 205 pounder and he will use his underrated ground game to scramble back to his feet when tito manages to take him down. Tito is more beat up then his wife's v-j-j, we all can hope this is his last fight. Griffen takes a UD

Cung le doesnt have the power to threaten Cote's chin, Cote by UD

Kim is the better striker with an amazing judo game. Maia has amazing Bjj but it has been shut down in the past. Kim via UD.

[DanB]

Any opinions on the boxing, I love to see an upset but unfortunately cant forsee it happening this week

Pavlik win by KO

Wladimir Klitschko win by KO

Kell Brook win Points or late KO

Tyson Fury by KO (but would love to see him fight somebody decent and get hammered, 0 skill just a fat fvcker)

[DanB]

mn fighter, cung le had power in strikeforce and previous kickboxing career, I know he aint getting younger but dont underestimate him, if you give him half a chance he can hit you and hard

Thompson did bring it to Klitschko in their first fight. I mean he didn't win many rounds but he brought it more than the other heavyweights did. The fact that this is a title fight proves the heavyweight division is in deep shit.

[Hunter]

I am very familier with Cung le in strike force and he fought cans minus and old aging frank shamrock. His best win is Scott smith, he has not demonstrated the power that would test cote chin. Cote has fought the far better competition and Le looked like shit against an aging silva. He was nothing more then a paper champion. ohhh and cote has far better hands and a reach advantage.

We'll see, I'll admit I am a fan of cung's due to his flamboyant style (for lack of a better term), he throws what people say cant work yet he makes it work, so based on that I am prob biased towards him no matter who he fights

I'd say dead, most anticipated fight of year is basically unlicensed between a below average heavyweight who is only pro a couple years,(chisora) and a cruiserweight looking for a payday (haye)

one thing strikes me about recent heavyweight fights, no passion, no heart, no wars

He is fun to watch.

[lstbred]

Anderson is going to punish Sonnen. I hope Forrest can beat the snot outta Tito. Demian Maia has a good ground game but has not looked to good.

[Misery13]

The wife and I have met Forrest and we really didn't care much for him. Kind of a douche. But I'd still like to see him win. Mrs.misery13 says Tito.

Boxing in general though is at a low-point, but the heavyweights are hit the hardest. I think it's due to MMA becoming popular.

I rarely watch a boxing match outside welter/middleweight division anymore, very little talent anywhere else

I'm glad first row sports is back up.

[DanB]

I usually use vipbox, I find the streams are slow from congenstion on firstrow sometimes, especially if it american ppv boxing but yeah they good to have all the same, I cant remember the last time I payed to watch a fight lol

The last time I paid to see a fight on PPV was when Lesnar beat Couture. For the most part they're putting out PPVs with less than stellar fights. I'm not going to pay $50 to watch 1 decent fight and 5 shitty ones. And with boxing, HBO airs the PPV fights like two weeks after the fight for free on their boxing after dark program.

[DanB]

yeah they $50 minimum over there, wtf? wasnt maywether something like $70? thats mental money


most expensive it ever gets over here is 25euro or so, the ufc is free on espn too

That's f[u]cked up. Why do they have to rape the Yanks? I sure as shit wont ever spend money on a Mayweather fight unless it's against Paq.

[DanB]

I reckon there more chance of chavez or martinez at middle or mabey a catchweight then pacman, even alvarez at light middle, mayweather wants money, those are only realistic fights that will bring in the $$$$ he wants

Mayweather doesn't just want money, he doesn't want to take a fight that he isn't sure he could win.

[Honkey_Kong]

Apparently knee strikes to an opponent on the ground's face are legal now. At least Tito lost.

[lestat85]

Some good fights tonight, but I must admit I was hoping for some different outcomes.

Eh, I'm just bitter. I was hoping Silvia would lose. I hate that guy.

[DanB]

sonnen was sick in the ring after the fight bahahahaha

might shut him up now, I admit some of the shit he used to say was funny but you got to back it up, as soon as the fight stood up it was over a minute later

[DanB]

silve v jones is what they calling for next

cant see white letting it happen though

[Honkey_Kong]

I'll fight that sack of shit.. As long as they don't drug test. And if they let me use brass knucks.

[DanB]

bahaha I'll take him on in a bar when Im surrounded by glasses and stools, not to confident about in a cage though.......

I'll beat that bitch down with a pool que. I was watching the replay, Silva didn't beat Chael. Chael beat himself. WTF did he do that spinning backhand for?

[gixxerboy1]
