TUF 3: The Thread

Recommended Posts

It hasn't been confirmed by Bisping or the UFC, just one of those assumption-type dealies. A lot of the TUF guys went up in weight to fight and most cut back to their natural class afterwards.

 

Diego- Cut to WW

Florian- Cut to WW then LW

Koscheck- Cut to WW

Stevenson- Cut to LW

Evans- Cut to LHW

Jardine- Cut to LHW

 

Yeah but before then most of the people including myself knew the Evans and Jardine were not legit HW's.

 

Same with Florian and Diego, everyone knew they were not legit MW's. Even on the show they mentioned Florian being a 155 most of his career.

 

I think Bisping would have a tougher time at the MW divison then he will at the LHW divison.

 

The MW divison is byfar the toughest divison and the most stacked IMO, espically with the signing of Anderson Silva(Who is a much more dangerous striker then Bisping IMO).

 

Bisping has shown he can fight at the LHW, and I think he should continue his quest at LHW. If he was going to cut down to MW, why didn't he just fight at MW during this season?

 

Which bring's me to my next point. None of the fighters you mention had the choice at fighting on the show at their perferable weight, where as their was a MW divison for Bisping to fight in if he wanted to.

 

I can't see Bisping moving down, if he does, then it would be stupid, because there is tons of money fights he can have at the LHW divison(Matt Hamill, and Forrest Griffin which would be a full out war).

I love how according to Sylvia Arlovski "got lucky" the first time. What part, Tim? The part where he dropped you or the part where he tore your ankle to pieces?

 

This is the wrong thread to have this discussion, but if you have any balls you would do another sig bet.

I find it more incredible that he calls it lucky despite getting dropped in pretty much the exact same fashion in the rematch.

 

Sylvia's legit, but God he's such a pervy goober.

You're slowly becoming the joke of this folder with your schoolboy call-outs.

 

Take 'er easy.

 

You called me out for the 1st fight, so I'm just returning the favor and allowing you a chance to redeem yourself.

He's a fighter, what do you expect?

 

Most fighters live in their own mythical world, where all their loses are lucky. Case in point, Ross Pointon on the last episode of TUF3.

Because if I don't go through with it I don't have any balls, right?

 

Christ almighty. I liked you better when you were threatening to beat me up.

 

It's just trash talk, no need to take it serious. If your not all that confident in Arlovski winning, than whatever. I think Sylvia is going to put an end to this Arlovski myth on July 8th. Sylvia is the only legit fighter Arlovski has ever beaten.

 

And if St. Pierre Vs. Hughes rematch is in MTL, and you and I both attend, if I was you, I'd watch out... :P

Akihiro Gono will tell you that not only did Dan Henderson beat him fairly, but that he's also a rather unpleasant looking guy with no KO power, then talk about how shitty PRIDE's matchmaking is.

 

Gono brings the honesty.

I'd shit talk you behind your back then point to Rudo and say that he did it.

 

Rudo being about 5 inches taller then me and having 70+ pounds.

Well if he's so big, why's he duckin' me?

I'm not scared of no man! I fight dirty if I have to. But everything aside, I'm not a very big person, I weigh only 154lbs. But I'm very fast, and I am taking Muay Thai classes. But I would be with my cousin who plays hockey in the QMJHL... so maybe we can have a tag team match :P

Bisping just looks like a tough guy.

My gf only watched the first episode of TUF and then the next episode she watched was Bisping vs. Kristian.

She saw Bisping getting into the ocatgon and said "This guy just looks like he's about to fuck someone up."

And he proceeded to do just that.

He does. He looks like a tough guy that will hurt you. I don't know what it is. He could be a soccer hooligan in another lifetime.

According to his bio he comes from a line of Counts in Poland, hence his nickname "The Count".

 

Aside from that, based on his accent, he wouldn't have been a hooligan in England.

 

Ross, he'd be a hooligan for certain, youknowwotimean?

Rudo's deathly afraid of Mexicans ever since he and I got lost in Tijuana that one time. I never told him the truth but that chica he woke up next to the next morning was actually a dude.

Gono also criticized the Jap favouring of their own fighters in the WW GP, saying that the four weakest fighters were all from Japan. He's very honest.

 

Tim is delusional and crazy. I hope he fights in PRIDE's next 16 man HW GP, where he fills eight slots, and Fedor fills the other eight. All eight fights take place on one night back to back.

A lot of people viewed Gono's statements as a pysche-out tactic for his fight with Lombard.

 

On a side-note from that, why in the fuck is Baroni campaigning to get Chonan's spot in the GP? It it was a one-sided drubbing I can understand but it was a close split decison. That's Joey's spot. Phil's going to have enough problems in the future as it is.

Gono basically said that having himself, Suda, Chonan & Minowa all in the same tournament was ridiculous, especially considering that Paulo Filho was being kept in the reserve bout, despite being a favorite to take the whole thing. Only Aoki has been as critical of PRIDE matchmaking since.

I could cut to 205........maybe.....if i had no muscle......

 

That's the thing I don't get. I'm 265 right now and 6'4". If I lost the fat and built muscle wouldn't I just weigh MORE than I do right now? So how do guys like Forrest and Stephan do it? I have literally the exact same frame and bone structure as those guys.
