Eddie Sanchez Doesn't Even Believe in Himself

I generally root for underdogs and was previously somewhat hoping for a Sanchez upset over Crocop, as it would probably be one of, if not the biggest upsets in mma history. however, after watching this interview, i can't even get behind this guy in the least bit. he seems like he has already lost too many brain cells, and i'm left wondering what is going to happen when crocop's left shin connects with a hollow head.

I'm gonna stand with cro-cop?, The crowd's gonna boo cro-cop? Obviously part of eddie's training for cro-cop is to take a baseball bat to the skull. If so, he is well prepared for what awaits him.

It would crack open worst then Wandy's????

Funny stuff. If i was Eddie Sanchez and would be fighting Cro Cop i would not beleive in myself either.

Sanchez knows damn well he is being fed to CroCop and has about 5% chance of winning the fight.

[Hunter]

Eddie knows damn well he is being fed to crocop. CroCop knows damn well eddie is being fed to him. Short night for Crocop 1st round KO

[Panzerfaust]

I hear Sanchez is guaranteed $30,000 for this fight.

I would ask for at least $50,000 and Zuffa pay all medical expenses.

Eddie knows damn well he is being fed to crocop.

you guys are too cute.

Mirko is gonna dominate this guy.

I really don't get why cro-cop's first fight in the ufc is with eddie sanchez. Cro-cop vs Arlovski makes way more since for his 1st fight. I think since arlovski just fought, the timing was off for a fight with mirko, but i do see this happening in the near future. (Right before mirko's title shot)

I think Dana wants CC v AA to be a title fight, after CC knocks big Tim silly. There would be a big draw for a title fight between those two.

[CJC1981]

I hope AA has a different stratagy for silvia.Their last fight was horrible.

negative, in my opinion, it is because they need to build him up to the US fans. they can't just throw him in with the ex champ. this way the UFC can feel him out and feel the fans out. when he (most likely) kicks eddie sanchez to the moon, people are going to automatically become huge fans. you have to remember that most UFC fans are complete morons when it comes to MMA. this way, the UFC can justify a brutal massacre, which will appeal to the morons who think kimbo slice is the best fighter in the world. everyone who knows anything about mma knows this is a one sided match, and we are more looking forward to his reign as UFC HW champ. after this fight, the UFC will have everyone hooked on the Croatian.

No, I mean let CC beat Sylvia for the title, then have him defend it against Arlovski. I doubt if Dana would set up Arlovski/Sylvia 4 if he can help it.

Now reports are saying they may be throwing couture into the hw mix. I don't know what the hell dana is thinking/planning.

[Quil]

I love the guy, and he's an embassador for the sport, but I don't see Randy becoming much of a factor in the HW division.

[westcoastbadboy]

is it just me or does eddie sanchez look like BeetleJuice???

[J.S.N.]

if they wouldn't sanction buttbean to fight an mma fight, then why are they sanctioning an execution?

the best night this guy can hope for is he catches a glancing kayo ala dos caras jr.
