granville Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Paulo Filho lost the other day, anyone who remembers him in PRIDE will probably be sad to hear. I don't think he's overcome his problems at all. Carwin is out of his fight with Big Country, and DW reckons he's going to make a major announcement tomorrow. Judging by his last few major announcements it'll be about a new brand of shaving cream he's using on his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 http://mmafrenzy.com/16385/dana-white-wec-ufc-to-merge-in-2011/ WEC to merge with UFC in 2011. Leightweight title unification should be a cracker, and the exposure for the 135 and 145 divisions can only be a good thing. And Korean Zombeh in UFC! Excitiing stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted October 29, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2010 This is frigging excellent! WEC cards are exiting and will add lots to the UFC roster. Aldo and Henderson being the stand-outs, while Faber will sell a PPV on his own. And the comment on keeping the WEC staff has a fantastic bonus, and here she is :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted November 19, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted November 19, 2010 Well after the abortion of a card that was 122 in germany (Siver apart), 123 is here.

O'Brien * Lightweight bout: Edson Barboza vs. Mike Lullo * Welterweight bout: Karo Parisyan vs. Dennis Hallman Spike TV card * Middleweight bout: Aaron Simpson vs. Mark Muñoz * Welterweight bout: Matt Brown vs. Brian Foster Main card * Lightweight bout: George Sotiropoulos vs. Joe Lauzon * Light Heavyweight bout: Phil Davis vs. Tim Boetsch * Middleweight bout: Gerald Harris vs. Maiquel Falcão * Welterweight bout: Matt Hughes vs. B.J.

hogso Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Good card tonight/this morning, looking forward to seeing Phil Davis on the main card. And here's the card for 125, first including the WEC roster Main card * Lightweight Championship bout: Frankie Edgar © vs. Gray Maynard * Featherweight Championship bout: Jose Aldo © vs. Josh Grispi * Lightweight bout: Clay Guida vs. Takanori Gomi * Welterweight bout: Nate Diaz vs. Dong Hyun Kim * Middleweight bout: Chris Leben vs. Brian Stann Preliminary card * Light Heavyweight bout: Brandon Vera vs. Thiago Silva * Lightweight bout: Marcus Davis vs. Jeremy Stephens * Featherweight bout: Mike Brown vs. Diego Nunes * Welterweight bout: Daniel Roberts vs. Greg Soto * Lightweight bout: Jacob Volkmann vs. Antonio McKee Stacked! I think MTB and Vera/Silva should be on the main card, but if this is the kind of thing we can expect (at least on paper anyway) 122 will have been the last non-event ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tegis Posted November 21, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted November 21, 2010 And Davis new style Kimura. Named "Mr Wonderful Kimura" by Rogan Great exiting card. Only one fight wasn't shown and it was Griffin being robbed by the judges. Lentz is getting annoying with his booooring style and luck. As predicted, the Sotiropolus - lauzon fight got fight of the night. And BJ knockout of the night was ironic as it was Hughes who got Dana to up the bonus to 80 grand from the usual 70.

Tegis Posted December 6, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2010 Strikforce had a KO-fest this weekend. Henderson, Lawlor and Daley did damage galore. And the ultimate finale had a good knee on display. Pablo Garza SPOILER******************** And Brookins win the TUF title. All good, he was a stand-out.

wiggyrichard Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 The 3rd gif you posted Tegis. That is one of the best short left hooks ive ever seen...perfect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Warning, this IS a ghey comment, but... Isnt that a bit brutal? If you carried on like the fella in the first gif, you'd kill a man within a minute or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 No, it's perfectly reasonable. Some of them just don't know when to stop and have to be pulled off by the refs. rocket polishers have no sense of fair sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you carried on like the fella in the first gif, you'd kill a man within a minute or 2. It is, late stoppage in my book. Fight until the ref breaks it up is the mantra and rule but in some cases the fighters should know when enough is enough. The Garza gif is worse I think because he had time to see his opponent was out of it, Henderson was in mid flurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
