Lt. Al Giardello 0 Report post Posted January 26, 2009 Well, his losses come from Franklin and Maia, so I can forgive him for those. Gouveia? Yeah, that's bad. If Quarry stops him, then I'll be mad. How is the Gouveia loss bad? He's a big 185 with the talent to be a top contender. MacDonald is nothing more then a gatekeeper and will never surpass that status.

NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2009 StrikeForce, Aprill 11th- HP Pavilion, San Jose *First show post-purchase of EliteXC* Frank Shamrock vs TBA Nick Diaz vs TBA Josh Thomson vs TBA Scott Smith vs Benji Radach If Nick Diaz and Shamrock get decent enough opponents, I might make the drive out to the Bay to see it. Anyone hear of that new MMA league starting up on ESPN Deportes? I guess they are going to have a 3-man spanish telecast, and a 3-man english telecast, so for all of us gringos, the SAP button on your remote will basically work in reverse as an "english language" button. Hahaha. They are going to be a tournament based league, at least that is how they are going to start out. All sorts of weight divisions, first show in a couple of months. With this and Strikeforce/Elite XC back with a vengence, 2009 could be a big year for MMA(besides just UFC), even if Affliction folds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He mentioned Manhoef vs Lawler, Hansen vs Thomson and Aoki vs Melendez as dream matches he'd want to set up. Shamrock should actually beat Nick standing. Diaz pitter patter style won't really work against Frank who has really good crisp striking, Diaz's best hopes is to get close and pull guard or execute his underrated judo. What weight will the fight be at? Man, I don't want to see Manhoef Vs. Lawler. I like Lawler, but there isn't a 185 fighter who can strike with Manhoef, style wise this is going to be lights out for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawkius Maximus 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 Manhoef is an awesome fighter to watch. There aren't many fighters left in MMA that are like him. He is so incredibly one dimensional. Standing, he's a monster. Despite the size difference, he can hang with WGP level K-1 fighters. He's strong as an ox and even someone like Remy Bonjasky has problems dropping him. However, that's all he's got. If the fight turns into any kind of grappling match he's done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 Yeah, I think Karo vs Koscheck would be pretty brutal to watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lei Tong 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 I meant any of the newly listed fights. Paixao couldn't handle Louro coming up in weight, while Wagney is a big featherweight; Koscheck v. Karo is obvious; Wolff has't shown me any reason to believe that he has what it takes to handle a Top 20-esque guy like Yoshida; and I think Dias subs Province early.

starvenger 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2009 Now that they've reached three-digits in the "major" events, shouldn't the UFC start trying to simply brand these things a la WWE?
