Between blowing up at Whitehead, thinly veiled racism, and overall shit-stirring, he's been the MVP of two TUF seasons so far. I will not at all refute that statement. I'm not his biggest fan but for my money Hughes is far and away the King of The Promo in MMA. Him and Krazy Horse. When Hughes uses masturbation as a workout analogy then he'll truly be a god.

naiwf 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2006 You think he's unlikeable now, try watching early Hughes fights. Yeesh. I've hated Matt Hughes for years because of his early fights. Back in the day, my two favorite UFC fighters were Tito Ortiz and Whoever Matt Hughes Was Fighting. My favorite UFC moment to date is when BJ Penn made him look like a bitch. The only person I've found less likable than Matt since UFC 1 was Royce Gracie. That fucker actually made me root for Hughes when they fought. Hopefully GSP gets it done this time because if he loses I don't think the universe can withstand the smugness that will be dripping off of Hughes' body in the postmatch interview.

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2006 I think Tito gained a lot of points with TUF 3. He coached his ass off and came off very likeable. Especially with Matt. And even though Hughes is a dick, I still like him. Watching him try and get Laimon and Serra together was great. I wouldn't mind seeing him get taken down a notch though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apropos of nothing at all, I saw my first Krazy Horse match on that Pride show FSN shows. Knocked out some Japanese fighter with a brutal right cross. His after match antics are hilarious. Backflip, run up the ramp, run back down to the ring, more acrobatics. They need more "freestyle" fighters in MMA. Some random guy just swinging for the fences (think Tank Abbot but with more talent) breaks up the monotony of the martial artists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2006 Unfortunately for Krazy Horse the fighters he faces now in PRIDE have realized that his kryptonite is submissions or more specifically a lack of submission defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

starvenger 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2006 Just saw on a commercial fight network is showing a different GSP fight every night this week. Their reasoning is it's the greatest opportunity a Canadian has had in MMA. They're all UCC/TKO events. So far they've shown: M - UCC 10 vs Justin Bruckmann for the UCC Canadian Welterweight title T - UCC 11 vs Travis Galbraith for the UCC Canadian Welterweight title W - UCC 12 vs Thomas Denny Coming up: R - TKO 14 vs Pete Spratt F - TKO 19 vs Dave Strasser (I'm guessing - I don't think Fight Network has rights to air old UFC PPVs) As for the UFC 65 fight card... they brought James Irvin back? Why - so Rogan can wax poetic about the flying knee? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their reasoning is it's the greatest opportunity a Canadian has had in MMA. Denis Kang being the first Canadian to ever win a PRIDE Grand Prix would be a pretty big win, had it happened. But yeah, this is pretty big for Canada. I'm looking forward to this being on par with Utah 2002 in the gold medal hockey finals, both mens and womens. But the celebration will be way rowdier and drunker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing like seeing Habs-Leafs there, and being surrounded by your fellow Leafs fans. We were drinking at Peel Pub during a Leafs/Habs game and a table of Americans from Boston thought it would be smart to try and start a "USA!" chant for no real reason. This was just after the stomping of Team USA in Utah. The "Five to Two!" chant that shut them up was deafening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I say "putting faith" because if McFedries has even a moderate amount of wrestling ability, he could very easily ruin any shred of credibility Sakara may have left (ironically, from a win over Elvis freakin' Sinosic). Therefore, with the fight arguably in his hands moreso than Sakara's, the UFC must be putting faith in McFedries being a dumbass and exchanging with Sakara.
