RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Mysterio is a few inches away from being a midget. The Avg. Japanese Man is like 5'6. Which is 4 inches taller than Rey. It's not munchkin land for crying-out-loud. ... or is it. *books tornado to Japan*
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Ok, I read the first two match spoilers. I can go to bed now. .... Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Fedor KO'd Goodridge like a minute into it, and Liddell KO'd Overeem BOOYAH! I love finishes.
{''({o..o})''} Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 If anybody wants spoilers check out this link to a Sherdog thread. http://www.sherdog.net/forums/showthread.p...threadid=105365
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 *Reads Spoilers* Sounds like an awesome show. 9 and a Half hours and counting.... *sits and waits*
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Ok. SPOILERS (Winner, Time, By) Spoiler (Highlight to Read): PRIDE ``GP2003 OPENING ROUND`` Saitama Super Arena 40,300 Fans (Sell Out) SPOILERS~! QUICK & EASY~! (Which could explain this show ! ) 1. Emelianenko Fedor beat Gary Goodridge (R1 1:09) by TKO. 2. PRIDE GP2003 - Round 1: Chuck Liddell beat Alistair Overeem (R1 3:09) by KO. 3. PRIDE GP2003 - Round 1: Quinton Jackson beat Murilio Bustamante (R3) by decision. 4. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira beat Ricco Rodriguez (R3) by decision. 5. Mirko Filipovic beat Igor Vovchanchyn (R1 1:29) by KO. 6. PRIDE GP2003 - Round 1: Hidehiko Yoshida beat Kiyoshi Tamura (R1 5:06) by KO. 7. PRIDE GP2003 - Round 1: Vanderlei Silva beat Kazushi Sakuraba (R1 5:01) by KO. 4 Ko's in 7 matches? 2 decisions? NO submissions? What is this, K-1?! I am very disappointed in Ricco and my match time predictions (which were totally arbitrary as you never know how long a fight can go so I gave the fighters the benefit of the doubt and made each match go longer than it should have.. yes... THAT'S what I did... The one surprises is that there are no surprises on this show, which is kinda sad cause that means Sak got destoryed A lot of R1 finishes, the pace of the show will be very interesting and how the announcers play it up will be integral. I hope my smilies don't spoil the show for anyone who doesn't read this
Guest BionicRedneck Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Poor Sak. I mean he was never going to win, but still.
{''({o..o})''} Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 I know, I was praying for him and that's quite a big thing when your an atheist.
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Hopefully Sak will enter the new lightweight division and give it a rub.
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Well ya didn't have to read em!!! *turns chair around* *room darkens* *light shines on face* MUAHAHAHAHAH!!
Guest Army Eye Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 I didn't read em.. Bionic spoiled one for me though. False spoiler? We'll have a good laugh if it is
Brush with Greatness Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 There's not much fuckin point to hiding the spoilers if everyone is going to discuss them openly afterwards. Come on guys. Start a new thread for this. BTW, is the pregame on at 8e / 7c. And then the show starts at 9e/8c?
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Pregame is 8:30-9:00 EST. Show starts at 9. Sorry for the spoilers guys. A new thread would be a good idea, but I figure one will start after we all have seen the show, so there's no point in making a spoiler thread, and then having a separate thoughts in another. So keep everything before the show here, and everything after in another thread. ....I really shouldn't have read the spoilers...
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 For those who are waiting for the show to begin and haven't read the spoilers or have been to sherdog.com lately, here is their very extensive preview... http://www.sherdog.com/viewnews.cfm?newsid...puAkukpvziKqEEt
Guest Choken One Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Just exactly how long was the show?
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Looks to be about an hour (23, 23, 1, 2, 5, 5, 3). But then add in pre-fight interview, entrances, replays, post fight, etc, etc. and it extends itself.
Guest Choken One Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 So is it really worth it for an SO-SO fan to drive 35 miles out his way to see?
{''({o..o})''} Posted August 10, 2003 Report Posted August 10, 2003 For a so-so fan I'm not really sure. If you have any interest in becoming a larger fan though, I would say yes. I am gonna drive for an hour and a half to get a copy of the PPV from my friend at the Mall of America myself. So you might wan't to ask someone who isn't a huge fan.
the pinjockey Posted August 11, 2003 Report Posted August 11, 2003 Is it safe to discuss in here yet or are people still watching later feeds?
LooseCannon25 Posted August 11, 2003 Report Posted August 11, 2003 I think some people's satellite and cable providers get it in a few days or something......with that being said......i gotta say that tonight i saw one of the biggest bullshit decisions in my life....sorry guys, i couldn't hold it in any longer
the pinjockey Posted August 11, 2003 Report Posted August 11, 2003 I have to agree with you there. Fuck this I am starting a new thread.
Guest Choken One Posted August 11, 2003 Report Posted August 11, 2003 Well I didn't get to watch it I called the bar up and they said due to no interest...they won't play it... and yet they can pack the place for Bad Blood...
RavishingRickRudo Posted August 11, 2003 Report Posted August 11, 2003 Wait, are you saying that MMA isn't popular in the US? That's crazy. I never knew that. And are you also saying that a Japanese-based Promotion has gotten little interest as well?
Guest Choken One Posted August 11, 2003 Report Posted August 11, 2003 Shocking Isn't it... I mean I thought Silva was HUGE in america...
