Upcoming Fights

[Brown Ninja]

Well we have a ton of great fights coming up in the next few months and I was wondering which ones hold interest for you guys. I feel like the Nog vs Randy fight will be huge as well as the GSP vs Alves fight.

I am a life long Wandy fan as well so the showdown with Rich should be amazing. There are also some smaller fights out there that I am really excited about like Gonzaga vs Carwin, Serra vs Hughes, and Swick vs Saunders. What other fights are out there that you guys are looking forward to and who do you see taking the above mentioned fights?

[Brown Ninja]

GSP wins by superior wrestling
Randy by Decision due to pace in a very close fight
Wandy by dominating KO
Carwin by TKO, GG just seems so uninspired at times
Hughes by Decision
Saunders by Decision

[godkilla]

bj vs florian bj tko
gsp vs alves gsp dec
silva vs leites silva ko
marquart vs maia marquart dec
rashad vs machida or page i got page over anyone, lol
mir vs brock 2 if there is a god(s) mir sub
fedor vs barnett fedor tko
overeem vs bonjasky possibly overeem ko!
and cro cop at ufc 99 lhk for the win, lol!

[Brown Ninja]

Agreed on all of your picks

[Brown Ninja]

I think Silva with smash thales. I am not excited to see that fight. I love to watch Anderson fight but I wish that it was against someone else. Thales got that fight after he was owned by nate.

[Brown Ninja]

Overeem vs Remy should be great. We will find out just how good Overeem has become or realize that he is just juiced up and the same as always

[godkilla]

i think overeem is just what the ufc needs right now. a deadly hw striker. even if he is on juice, lol. i bet there are plenty or ufc fighters on juice. hell you could run suspension til the day before weigh in couldnt you. piss before and piss after and back on cycle.

[godkilla]

nate the great is constantly improving i hope he makes it by maia. i like maias bjj but cmon! no one wants a passive "i dont wanna hurt you i just wanna submit you champ" especially after being treated to a. silva! the new improved nate vs silva is gonna be a brawl! mark my words.

[rush_604]

Chuck vs Shogun - Hope Shogun is back to his old self ( i doubt it though)

Gsp vs Alves - GSP tko via Ground n Pound rnd 3

Bojansky via decision

Hendo vs Bisping - Hendo decision

I did not like the last showing that nog..had he also cost me $100.00...I would have to go with nog...

Wandy also cost me $100.00 but I would take him over rich anyday of the week..

Carwin....i like gonzaga but I an putting my wifes money on carwin

Hughes vs serra...I hate serra....I hope hughes beat him so bad that serra goes home and shot himself in the head....

Alva vs gsp....I cant wait for that fight to happen.....that is going to be a good one...and i am looking forwad to it..

Penn vs deigo would also be a great fight....I would have to go with Penn in the end...not sure if deigo can get past shawn....that will also be a great fight.....

I am sure I will think of some more,,,,,

[Brown Ninja]

ha ha on the Serra comment. He certainly is a douche

[Brown Ninja]

Mir vs Lesnar II should be great....I got Brock

[Brown Ninja]

Barnett vs Fedor sounds great as well
Belfort vs anyone
Babalu vs Tito
Rampage vs Evans

[*RAGE*]

Mir vs Lesnar II should be great....I got Brock

lesnar should walk through that one...cant find any who will take mir

Barnett vs Fedor sounds great as well
Belfort vs anyone
Babalu vs Tito
Rampage vs Evans

fedo all the way
belfort vs griffen
babalu vs tito babalu.....tito pisted me off when he left jenna jamison
rampage vs evens should be a good fight both have good hands....I am going to to with rampage ko even little punk ass out...

[godkilla]

shogun vs liddel i think is a bad match up for shogun but we will see. neither fighter has looked good recently and speaking of not looking good recently the last time tito had a dominating performance was against shamrock and thats nothing to brag about. so babalu>ortiz. excited to see more from belfort, overeem, marquart and young blood bones jones. and less of guys like ortiz, hughes, maynard and guida

[xnotoriousx]

I don't know how tito didn't finish that triangle on machida.

Really hope that rampage doesn't get beat by that child molester looking fool.

[Brown Ninja]

jardine looks like he should be the lead singer for Metallica

[Brown Ninja]

Tito left Jenna? I thought she was preggers.

[Brown Ninja]

serves that whore right. She is a bigger piece of shit than Tito.

[higherdesire]

Agreed on all of your picks

I figured you would want maia for some reason?

[higherdesire]

I don't know about JArdine man. He can fight as well as rampage. He seems ot get some tough breaks in the hierarchy but he is a contender like it or not. BTW who the hell is tito anyway? And hughes can go away too after his giving up in a fight. I hate tito. THere is noone out there to take Evans or AS or GSP right now. MAybe soon but not right now.

[Brown Ninja]

I think Machida and Page will/could beat Evans. Alves is the last guy I see with a real shot to beat GSP. If GSP beats him I am not sure what is next. I think Anderson will wreck Maia, Nate, and Thales. I don't want to watch any of those fights. Give him a test

[southmadejd]

I am a sucker for any Fedor fight so of course I like Fedor vs. Barnett
Page/Machida vs Rashad
What happened to the hype about GSP fighting A. Silva? Is that still a possibility or is Silva going to stay up at 205 for awhile. I would love to see Silva actually fight some contenders at 205. That would be awesome actually now that I think about it.

[godkilla]

i gotta agree with brown about page and machida.

he is defending his belt against leites at 97 and then i beleive the winner of nate vs maia gets a shot at him.

Hendo and Bisping will do the next Ultimate Fighter show, and than fight each other at UFC 100. I think winner of that will get next title shot.

[BG]

Im going against the grain lol.......
GG's going to step up, he has to.
Serra's going to pull off another upset and send farm boy back to his tractor.
I dont think anybodys going to beat Rashad.
GSP probably will win, Alves seemed timid against Koz, he better come out amped for George
Hendo's going to KO Bispin send back to the drawing board since they padded his way to the top.
Franklin by dec over a beat down Wandy.

I like where you are going, I see it the same way.

I think Page could be Rashad, but other than that....right on. And Page/Rashad I think could go either way and would be a boring fight with a great KO in the end. Page has him beat in boxing, stronger wrestling, better GnP but Rashad's movement is better. He just keeps really busy, hard to hit him with anything solid.

[Brown Ninja]

Does anyone seeing Barnett making the fight vs fedor interesting? Josh is tuff but I think he's going to take a beating

[godkilla]

if cro cop can get em down and gnp him id say fedor can also. can barnett get a takedown is the only queston i have.

[Brown Ninja]

i doubt it but that would be interesting if he did. he is one big dude but he certainly struggled with Gilbert

[godkilla]

good point. he is gonna have to do better than he did with gilbert to have a chance.

[Brown Ninja]

Gilbert is a tough dude but no ace on the ground. I think that Fedor will test the conditing and finish him on his feet.

[BG]

Ive been waiting for this one for a while now. Barnett will only have a chance if he comes out a fights a very smart fight. He does have that ability, he's a vet. All in all I hope it a real good fight no matter who wins. I think Fedors going to take him down and sub him.

[BG]

Page has him beat in boxing, stronger wrestling, better GnP but Rashad's movement is better. He just keeps really busy, hard to hit him with anything solid.

I think Rashad has the best boxing in MMA or top 3. I think Rashads going to be a tough fight for him, Page's strongest point is against those who come right in and he counters. His few wins lately has been just that, Rashad has patience and like you said moves so well. Now Page had a hard time against Forrest because he fought outside and stayed away, now one thing Rashad has that Forrest doesnt.....big time heavy hands. As far as wrestling I think its even and Rashad has better ground and pound, he took Forrest out with it. Im going with Rashad KO'n Rampage or dropping him with a BIG shot and then TKO by GnP.

rampage has the best chin in the 205 div and possibly the ufc. rashad by ko or tko is unlikely imo. rampage wrestling > rashads. you dont get page on his back unless he wants it there. just look at there last few fights. page is 4-1 with three ko's (eastman,liddel,silva) and he also went 5rnds with hendo and forest. rashad is 4-0-1 and couldnt put away bisping or ortiz(who hasn't looked good since shamrock...) although his ko of liddel and forest was impressive and the sean salmon one was a beaut also but i still think page has faced higher quality opponent, has a better chin and better wrestling.

Page couldnt get off his back against Hendo which has been the only good wrestler he has faced, better opponents, maybe at the time but he didnt win. Liddel, come on , Jardine even destroyed him, Imo Liddel and Wandy are gate keepers now, they will never be legitimate contenders again. Not taking anything away from Rampage, but Rampage is on a decline, Evans is on top of his game along with the #1 team, going to be hard to beat.

What makes Rampage such a good wrestler, couple slams in pride, shit I havent seen any GnP out of him in a long time?

well according to you liddel isnt a good wrestler and is just a gatekeeper and jardine "destroyed" him. oh yeah page isnt a good wrestler either and is on a decline?! i am not even gonna touch that, lol. lets just say liddel and wand are gatekeepers. well quinton destroyed them in the first round. and by destroyed i mean ktfo not run away throwing kicks for a 3 rnd decision. on the other hand rashad couldnt even finish the old gatekeeper and won due to a point deduction.

but what do i know. rashad is on top of his game and liddel, wand and page are just gatekeepers.

[rush_604]

Looks like Mir is injured and UFC 98 main event of Lesnar vs Mir is post poned. I think it should either be moved to UFC 100 if Mir can fight by then. Or they should give Big Nog the title shot.

lol dont get worked up, just discussing my friend. These are just our opinions, we have no idea whats going to happen no matter what the past has shown us.

That blows, Mir would have been coming off of a nice momentum from that big upset.
