Lei Tong Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 My bad on the wrong thread. I'm fucking tired. As soon as this show's over I need to nap before I go out tonight.
Mik Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Shogun doesn't look injured. Picking him apart. Coleman's corner is either delusional or very good motivators.
Lei Tong Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Man, if I just got my ass kicked and had to go to my corner to get advice from Baroni & Hinkle, I'd be pretty fucking depressed.
Lei Tong Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Fuck these asinine stats Goldberg keeps blurting out.
Mik Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Where's Shogun's killer instinct? Coleman is fucking dead in there and Shogun is just letting him stay in the fight.
Lei Tong Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 I can't tell who looks sadder right now. Granted, Shogun's winning, but at least Coleman has the excuse of being a dehydrated old man who hasn't fought in years. Shogun just looks flat as hell.
Cuban Linx Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Coleman is the walking dead at this point but he's still taking Shogun down virtually at will, doesn't say much for Shogun's wrestling or gas tank.
Mik Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Not looking good in victory. In terms of gas tanks that was like a Hummer vs. an Escalade.
Lei Tong Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 So these PRIDE vets really need to get their hands on some high-level masking agents, because the lack of Vitamin S sure as shit isn't helping anyone.
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 That was the greatest fight I've ever seen.
The Niggardly King Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 That was the greatest fight I've ever seen.
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 It's the greatest all the way from the entrance to the post fight and everything in between. EVERYTHING. I can't remember the last time I was that entertained or a fight brought that many dimensions to it, from violence to drama to outright comedy. YOURE A FUCKING LEGEND

Your Paragon of Virtue Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Bruce Buffer is horrible at emphasizing certain parts of a guy's name.
Cuban Linx Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Fuck these asinine stats Goldberg keeps blurting out. Absolutely. Successful on 71% of takedowns, lands 35% of leg kicks, SHUT THE FUCK UP. Easily the dumbest thing they've added lately.
Mik Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Drunken Irish scorers. I guess I can agree with the decision, though.
Lei Tong Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 It boils down to the second round. If you liked Franklin's slight edge standing, the fight's his; Henderson's late takedown and G&P, than it's his.
Mik Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 By the way, if anyone is thinking of paying for this tonight... I'd recommend against it.
Mik Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Oh also: Dan winning is actually good for the future because he actually wants to be at 185 and be a coach on TUF. Rich, obviously, wanted neither of those things.
The Niggardly King Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Only fight worth an order is Coleman/Shogun
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 No way, I thought this card was awesome. Horn/Palhares was lots of fun, Belcher/Kang was slow at parts but definitely solid. Opening fight was about as action packed as expected, the main event delivered and we got the greatest fight of all time. Throw in two UK Kids on Speed and this card rocked.
imajackoff? Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 While nothing was terrible, I would not give a recommendation to order this PPV. Save your money for next week's Affliction and Penn/St. Pierre in two weeks. Shogun was a great fighter in Pride, but he is a complete stiff now. Coleman was gassed 3 minutes into the fight and Rua still couldn't do anything.
AlwaysPissedOff Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 God, Shogun looked so damn sad in there today like the ACL tears and Forrest stole all of his killer instinct. Man, if Coleman hadn't gassed 3 minutes in, he possibly could've gotten the mount and tapped Shogun, which would've been fuckin' hilarious. As for the rest of the fights, someone needs to tell Palhares to work on his striking because Horn was giving him opening damn near the entire fight to turn his lights off(those slams he got in were damn sweet, however). What was with Davis back-peddling so damn much? He probably ate more shots trying to stay out of Lytle's range than he did when he tried to get in close. I kinda feel Rich won the main, but round 2 could've gone either way, so meh.

RavishingRickRudo Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 Fuckin Shogun. I wanted 5 rounds of Hendo/Franklin. Rich could have ruined Dan if he threw more crosses.
BruteSquad_BRODY Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 Jesus - I was marking the fuck out during the whole Coleman pre match and match. I likened it to knowing John Cena and Shawn Micheals were going to have a great main event on top (Hendo/Rich) but seeing Hogan (Coleman) on the upper card was a nostalgic treat. UFC was very OK as a whole tonight. Marked hard for cagey vet Horn escaping time and time again as well
