starvenger Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I cannot believe that the TUF editors didn't try and sneak some patriotic march in under Couture's speech...
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 Awesome! File footage! It's great cause they made it look like Baroni won those fights.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 Damn, I wanted more training footage.
starvenger Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Awesome! File footage! It's great cause they made it look like Baroni won those fights. They need to show some of the early stuff where Patrick Smith basically kneed a guy's eye out...
Guest CronoT Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 So, who do you think is going to win? There's been spoilers going around the net for at least a week, but I don't trust those.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 I'm going with Leben. More experience, he can't really be knocked out or tapped out from what I have seen. Which means Koscheck will have to win by ref stoppage or jd. Thus far, the pattern has been the fighter who is the most confident wins, and Chris is the most confident.
starvenger Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 They're setting this up really well, making us think that either guy can lose. But overall, Koschek comes out looking better.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 FORREST! GOING NUTS!!
Vyce Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I really, really want to see Leben gets hurt in this fight. For real. Â I might actually get truly interested in this show if they kick this fatherless bastard off.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 Josh mocking Bobby is awesome. Oh man that was hilarious. This show has more continuity than the WWE.
Banter Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I'd love to see Josh win but I think Leben is going to knock him out. One of the commericals for the show has Leben at a table ("I can roll out of bed smelling like booze and dirty strippers and still put the stamp on kids.") with a small bandage on his left hand. It looks like it might be footage from a future episode. Leading me to think he might be sticking around.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 I love that they are creating a discussion over who will win. When you get people thinking about stuff like experience, styles, conditioning, injuries, etc. they are thinking BEYOND the physical and emotional and getting intellectual about it. When you have those 3 investments in something, you can get really hooked on it.
Lei Tong Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Anyone notice Diego sweep Josh like nothing? Â Once again, Diego > Josh
starvenger Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Once again, Diego > Josh Well, duh. Diego is the best MW on Liddell's team. Don't think that's even a question, especially since they had him do the squash against Alex K.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 Gotta love the product placement of the DVD's.
starvenger Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Shit, I forgot about doctor's stoppage. Too much blood from the fingers would get fratboy essentially dq'ed.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 I wonder if this counts on someones record?
starvenger Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Ah, Josh is from Buffalo. No wonder I don't like him...
JoeDirt Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Kinda early with the fight isn't it?
Guest CronoT Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Josh is deathly afraid of Chris.
starvenger Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 GREAT round, where everything they talked about shows up in the subtleties of the fight. Leben representing the left, Josh looking for the shoot. Leben keeping the guard in tight, Josh showing all the usual traits of a wrestler-turned-MMA fighter. Â Holy shit that was pretty good.
Banter Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Chris owns Josh when they are standing. It's not even close. Keep that fatherless bastard down!
Conspiracy_Victim Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I've only seen bits and pieces of episodes, but Koscheck has really looked like a pussy in this episode. I don't care for him. Leben looks cocky, but I like him more. He needs to stop trying to load up the left and break Koscheck down with shots to the body then get the one good shot in to win it.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 Jiu Jitsu is your friend Leben.
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 I like how Leben won't initiate, because if he moves forward it'll make for an easier takedown. This was established in the Diego fight. CONTINUITY~! PSYCHOLOGY~!
RavishingRickRudo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Report Posted February 22, 2005 Leben should be working the legs and the body. Fuck.
