  1. Just re-watched Tamura/Yoshida, and I just can't buy it. Yoshida gets up and walks to his corner after the victory, then starts limping a little, then it gets so bad he lies down and starts moaning in pain.

     

    If it was real, and Yoshida does advance, they won't put him with Chuck. They'll give Chuck the hardest road possible.

     

    I really think Cro-Cop's next fight should be for the title, only for marketing purposes. Just think if Cro-Cop had one more fight before his title shot, and he lost. People would lose interest in him after that.

     

    EDIT: BTW, Bob Sapp on LENO~ tomorrow night!


  2. The only real fighter he beat has been Herring, and Herring was jumping around like he was on speed or something in that fight. I don't think Cro Cop should get a title fight with Fedor, I think Nog should get his rematch first.

    I'd be with you on that normally, especially since he lost by judge's decision, but Nog didn't look to great in the ring tonight. I think the bigger match for the heavyweight division is Fedor/Cro-Cop.


  3. I still don't buy Yoshida's injury. I think they're trying to make him the next Sak, and they know none of the other guys advancing would job to him, and he has no chance of beating any of them on his own.

     

    However, I CAN buy Igor's injury. ;) Cro-Cop's limbs are lethal weapons. If Fedor lets Cro-Cop get the same amount of opportunities to strike as he let Fujita, he can kiss the belt away.


  4. I just re-watched Tamura/Yoshida, and it does look a bit suspicious. Tamura knocks Yoshida down, then jumps on top of him and starts punching his chest! And Tamura seems to turn his head into the choke at the end.

     

    If Yoshida withdraws, I wouldn't be surprised if this whole things turns out to be a work. He basically has no shot at beating Silva/Rampage/Liddell anyways.

     

    EDIT: And does anyone know when the PRIDE: Bad Blood DVD is coming out? I've been waiting forever.


  5. I was just checking PRIDE rules, and they state that if a fight goes to a decision, the winner is determined by who made the most attempts to end the fight.

     

    If those ARE the rules, that the Nog victory would make a little more sense. However, I thought Busta made more attempts to finish the fight then Rampage, although Rampage had control.

     

    Either way, someone got screwed.


  6. I thought he was solid during the matches, the between match stuff just made me hate him though. Hopefully he was just trying too hard and will be better next time in those segments.

    Yeah. I was a little shocked when he called Overeem "Good looking" though.

     

    So what do the semi's look like? I'm guessing Liddell vs Rampage and Silva vs Yoshida, just because it will give Chuck a harder style to fight, and Yoshida could be "avenging" Sak's loss.
