Lt. Al Giardello 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2006 1 more day until Lei Tong can change his Richard Simmions avi... I heard both Ken-Flo and Hominick backed down from a title shot against Shrek. Just give Spencer Fisher the title shot... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well techincally Shamrock is one of the UFC's biggest stars, he isn't the best, but he is a draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingPK 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2006 Shamrock looks like he's going to puke in that photo. He may be a draw to casual fans, but that's gonna diminish rapidly as guys like Ortiz, Liddell et al get more exposure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted July 12, 2006 Eh, Shamrock's a draw in a very limited capacity. It'll take quite a bit of time off and a lot rebuild, as well as someone who can work well enough to pay off the whole thing. This was a big show and Shamrock was still pretty much dominated, whether you saw the stoppage as premature (and it wasn't). People who think about ordering the next show Shamrock's on are going to have to wonder whether they'll see a return on their investment. Especially after the relative bury-job they pulled off on TUF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timmy8271 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2006 I just saw the Ortiz/Shamrock fight and i laughed my ass off. From Tito coming out to eminem with that kick ass flag, to the shitty ending, to shamrock getting booed and pulling a bob backlund ala WM 11. It was great. Shamrock really needs to retire though.

Lei Tong 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2006 Word is Hominick will likely pull out of his rematch with Hatsu Hioki. "He's all like 'Wah-wah, my dad's cancer has reached his spine! Wah!' Shut up and take you ass kicking like a man, pussy." -MSIA Also, my return to non-faggy avs celebrates Hioki's pwnage of Hominick and general awesomeness.

Lei Tong 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2006 Hominick has three strikes against him: 1) Being Canadian 2) Being a part of Team Thompkins 3) Not being Hatsu Hioki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lei Tong 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2006 Also, I love how Hioki flew in only days before the fight with Hominick, only saw a handful of Mark's fight footage (which nearly lead to cries of "TREASON!"), heard the rules for the first time the day before the fight, and still laid a beating on him. Random fact: Hatsu Hioki has never been submitted by Shane Rice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angle-plex 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2006 What is everyone's opinion on the Sakuraba/Shamrock ref stoppage? Shammy was definitely rocked after those two punches but it was stopped real quick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lei Tong 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2006 The ref mearly saved Shamrock from the embarassment of getting stopped by Sakuraba's G&P follow-up, which would have likely rivaled Schembri's in hilairty & humiliation factor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 The best memory I have of Joe Son is him coming into the octagon after Royce dropped out at UFC 3, celebrating like he did something. Just out of the blue being the cocky sumbitch we'd later find him to be, and Big John (I think) telling him to leave. Koscheck is a bad matchup for Goulet.
