Lt. Al Giardello 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 Who the fuck is going to want to train with him? Anyone who wants to learn from Matt Serra's only black belt. Plus I bet it's a lot cheaper then Serra's or Renzo's gym. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 Yeah, seriously. All of that is negated by the fact that he's a quitter and made himself look like a giant walking bitch on national TV for everyone to see. Throw in the fact that he's blackballed by the UFC and he's not training anybody interested in MMA - only grapplers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 The other thing is that, I thought him and Serra would get back on good terms rather easily. You know, it's just a tv show and it's not really that big a deal. Well, apparently it is, because Serra still hasn't forgiven him, kicked him out of his school and essentially cut all ties with him. That's crazy to me, because Scarola was in Serra's corner for the GSP fight, and was the best man at his wedding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 http://www.dailymotion.com/Princenino/vide...-k1-wgp_extreme Bonjasky vs. Hari, in one of the better kickboxing bouts that I have seen. Nothing uber-dramatic, but a very technical fight with both guys throwing combos and countering in the heat of an attack. Just a super dope fight and imo the wrong guy won.

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2007 UFC ruling on Sherk UFC officials confirmed today that Sean Sherk has been stripped of his lightweight championship due to California upholding the steroid test result in the hearing on 12/4.

Hawkius Maximus 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2007 Haven't seen any mention, but might as well talk about it here. Semmy Schilt re-won the K-1 WGP for the third time. He's also the only person in K-1 history to win the GP three years in a row. He actually was in danger for a short period this year, as Feitosa nearly KO'd him with a head kick, but Schilt pretty much owned him beyond that. There were two injuries against him, as Le Banner hurt his leg, and Aerts did as well...but as the fights were going, it didn't really matter. Schilt was winning both fights at that point in time. I REALLY wanted to see Badr Hari versus Schilt if only to see what Hari would pull out, but Hari wasn't in the conditioning for the tournament. Had he beaten Bonjasky, he wouldn't have made it past Aerts or likely have even made it as far as Bonjasky did. Edit: Also, if anyone knows where to see past K-1 WGP's lemme know. I've never seen any before 2006, and I'd really, really like to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2007 Anybody else getting pumped for the WEC card Wednesday? Pulver's 145 debut and after Swanson talked some trash it should be a good fight... you get a Filho beatdown and also a fairly respectable opponent for Faber in Jeff Curran. Hopefully they can find a way to get Kid Yamamoto over to the US to make that dream match go down, but this will do for now. 3 title fights and another big name on free tv = fun times.

I've never seen any before 2006, and I'd really, really like to. I've seen every one and have 1993 to 2002. Sorry to be a cock tease, but they are all on VHS and I only have one VCR, but I have edited versions of them on DVD. If you're really interested, drop me a P.M. 1996-1999 are far and away the best, hell they are probably four of the ten best fight cards EVER, including Pride and UFC. I used to post K-1 matches on here, but nobody seemed to be interested at the time. I can change that if you guys are interested in seeing more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you watch that fight, it's scary for me to note that their two fights from '96 and '97 ARE EVEN BETTER, especially '96. Probably a top five all-time fight, despite the puzzling scoring.
