You know what I mean. Quantity doesn't always equal quality. If that were the case Melvin Guillard and Shonie Carter would be UFC titleholders, and Dan Severn would be boring us to death in the HW division. Joe's been on a roll at 155 but for whatever reason I still think that he's got some holes that a fighter can exploit. Of course I may be misjudging simply because the guy is 25.

No doubt. Stevenson is still kinda raw. I just hope that Kurt doesn't "dance" again if he wins.

Probably not. Goulet's a 170 version of Leben in terms of fight strategy.

I wouldn't call it hilarious. Morbidly amusing though.

Hey, if I were Shogun, I'd duck Lyoto too. Nothing like fighting in a snoozefest to endear yourself to Dana and Joe.

Junkie is saying it's Nate vs Junior Assuncao

Ewoks, Return of the Jedi. Wheelie, Transformers, the Movie.

Definitely, it would've been fun to see Ned Holness try to beat up Joe Rogan. Well, not fun for Ned, but fun for us.

Curiously, a guy constantly getting caught in some wacky situation is exactly why I'm looking forward to watching Mr. Bean's Holiday...

Man, there's not too many true cans at 155. I'm thinking that they match Nate up against Gilliam, Varner, Alvin Robinson or Mishima. Cummo's a strange one, but if they stick him in with a wrestler he's gonna be in trouble. He's got surprising power in his strikes. so you can't dismiss him so quickly.

Who thinks this? Excluding deluded TF fanboys, everyone's under the assumption that Harry Potter's taking the top spot this week. And they're right. To be honest, I don't think anyone on this board does, but it's just a cryptic comment on how stacked the summer movie season is this year. Although yes, if you're deluded, you probably would think that TFs will rule the roost.

Brett Ratner must think so as well - why else is he the only guy that's given Chris Tucker a job in the last 5 years? Hey, did Sucre buy it at some point? He kinda disappeared after Qatar. Megatron... I understand that they didn't want to use Frank Welker b/c his voice didn't reflect the more monstrous-looking Megatron, but why not use David Kaye instead of Hugo Weaving? All in all, not a bad movie, but if you think it's gonna stay #1 after this weekend... you're crazy.

Yikes. If you want to showcase a fighter, fergawdsakes don't put him up against Machida. This has the potential to disappoint, and not for lack of effort on Shogun's part.

Gurgel would've been crazy over in San Francisco. I'm just saying.

I almost get the feeling that the UFC went there as a favour of sorts to the Maloofs. I mean, why go to Sacremento when you could probably draw better crowds further south? Especially with Tito on the card. No offence, Mike.

Swick probably plays the play money/freerolls only, and I wouldn't blame him. Lower/Mid-tier guys don't make enough to play even .05/.10 cash games when you factor in training costs and such.

9.25 for a pint (+4oz) of malt liquor? Does the UFC get a share of the gross or something?

Against Sherk? Yeah, it's probably going five, unless Franca sticks his neck out for Sherk to choke, or Sherk gives him an opening for a sub. Does anyone actually hate Chris Lytle? He just seems like too nice of a guy for anyone to truly hate, you know?

I can't believe you're implying that he was ever ON the sauce. Everyone knows that only pro wrestlers get juiced up. [/sarcasm]

Bocek's CV shows some excellent BJJ credentials, so if I were Edgar I might look to keep this fight standing. BTW UFCJunkie noted that the Diego Saraiva/Jorge "Gary" Gurgel (hey, if Rich is "Ace"...) fight might allow you to win some money regardless of the outcome. Granted, it's only about $4, but a win is a win...

Just saw the EPK on Space. Wasn't really into the movie before, but now I'll buy into it as a decent popcorn flick.

True, he hasn't done anything impressive, but to say that watching Shamrock get beat up isn't exciting? I have to disagree. I can always enjoy that.

I believe that you're talking about Wacky Races

You do realize that Transformers, with the exception of the two Mainframe series, WAS anime, right?

Apparently there's a new 2-D Transformers cartoon coming out. Here's a pic: Suddenly, the Transformers in the movie don't look bad.
