Your Paragon of Virtue

Goldie is still the greatest car shill of all time. Whether you dig that or not is up to you. It gets annoying when he's hyping other fights during ones where excitement is happening, especially since he sounds so damn fake. I like Rogan though, guy's got some genuine enthusiasm.

Yeah I noticed that about Buffer too. "Wow, real emotion" I thought. So can someone answer my question about the scores being announced for the Bonnar fight?

A lot, but I was referring to Goldberg's comment about a coach being so classic that he had to read the card. "Bonnar was coached by legend..*reads card* Carlson Gracie, a pillar of the sport!" or some other such nonsense.

I'm guessing he thought it should have been a draw. I don't think anyone feels that strongly about Bonnar winning, though his reaction right before, during, and after the decision was announced was priceless. What did the crowd say after each score? I couldn't tell if it was Bonnar or Bullshit. "Trained by legendary coach............Carlson Gracie...."

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Explain, I got scared, especially when Franklin stalled for a bit there. Vicious ending though, Ken seemed clueless on his back. He's not nearly as good at grappling as he'd like to have you believe.

Franklin is expected to beat Shammy up pretty badly. Kind of sad that KenFlo looked just like Raff and Alex on the ground.

Well his brother dying was probably the worst part of all.

That's probably the most famous skit the one with Rick James. There were two women, and the idea is that he needs four hands to keep up with the titties. But then he SWERVES and goes for the thumbs down gimmick. IDRM is talking nonsense now.

That joke doesn't work when there are only two titties dumbass.

Oh and you forgot; Franklin over Shamrock, whatever he wants RD 1.

If you're only talking winners and not finishes, I agree with all except I think Bonnar, Southworth, Sanford and HOPEFULLY Thacker will get the wins. I also think Quarry will finish off Lodune.

Well they aren't but just the nature of cutting weight last minute I guess makes you look like that.

What a bunch of pricks. You go to his house, drink his alcohol smoke his marijuana and then rat him out? That shit's punishable on the streets with a cap in the ass beeyotch. You had him as a prof? What university did you go to man, this guy is only a high school math teacher in Florida. He had 40 000 to post bail he must be rich.

If he stopped by certain spots in San Fran, that would make him the most hated/loved man on television. It's amazing that a man that is so against homosexuality and so for family values really has no religious beliefs to speak of. If anything, he mocks others with such beliefs, at least other wrestlers.

Song sucks yo.

That last one looks photoshopped, same with the one of Rafferty. The odd heads don't seem to fit on the big bodies.

YARGH!

Swick is fighting Schoenhauer at 185, so I'm thinking that since size won't be such an advantage, that Swick should come out with an easy win in this one.

MMAWeekly's Ken Pishna reports LIVE from Las Vegas that he just spoke with Jason Thacker. Pishna says Thacker is in INCREDIBLE shape and that not only does he have the six pack, but he has been working with boxing trainer Tony Pepp (sp) who fought Floyd Mayweather Jr. Thacker says "I'm in a great position to pull off the upset because no one has seen me fight and he (leben) has no clue what I can do." His training for this fight went extremely well and he's very confident in this fight. More on Thacker later in this thread... That's from this thread: http://forums.mmaweekly.com/Toast.asp?sub=...fid=2&tid=69895

Apparently he trains over at this team; http://www.gibsonpankration.com/ He's not part of the official fight team or anything though. Are all the undercard matches gonna count for their record officially?

Yeah I really didn't think you knew anything about him either, because no one does, I am still trying to find out what he did to get put on the show.

I still don't think he can take him, but at least we know he's not the joke that he was made out to be. Maybe. I heard somewhere that he said he has better striking than Leben and a better ground game. I don't know what he is basing that off of but I'd like to see Leben lose three in a row after being a huge prospect for the big time with one loss where he showed tremendous heart against a great grappler in Doerkson.

I now demand a write-up on Thacker. I haven't been able to find out ANYTHING about the guy from anywhere.

He said that Leben rode him so much that he confronted him on the show, and that Leben backed down saying he was only joking. At least it showed that he didn't take it like a pussy, like they showed on the TV show. But the main thing is, once the show ended, it was revealed that he didn't know about the spritzing during the show. He saw it for the first time like all of us on television. Right after that he called Dana White and was pissed off enough to say it was bullshit, that Chris Leben was a coward and that before he knew that they even had fights on the undercard, he called out Leben and said he wanted to fight him. So basically he didn't even know he would get a chance, but that he was "infuriated" enough to call out Leben and wanted to fight him on the finale. This is all from Joe Silva by the way. Apparently he's really pissed and wants at Leben. Hopefully he smashes that cat pretty good. I'm just surprised he didn't know that it happened on the show. Maybe he won't embarrass Canada too badly anymore. So not only does that make me respect him some more, it also makes me realize that Team Quest didn't have to pull any strings for this one. At least this match will look much more interesting since we know Thacker is the one that made it happen. That's gotta be some advantage.
