OT: The Official UFC Chat Thread

Exciting stuff going on! The tv deal, all that - should be really good!

I'm looking forward to UFC Rio!

I watched the last event w/ the volume off - Did Henderson remember to thank Jesus for Dominating Jim Miller? Holy crap - I did NOT expect Miller to get dominated like that. Either Ben got a LOT better since he fought Pettis or Guida is a LOT better than he has ever shown us.

Ben got better, he said seeing himself on the loosing end of one of ESPN top 10 plays for the entire year, spark a fire inside him. Also remember, he lost that fight against Pettis the second that kick landed, it was a close fight and that kick made all the difference, well deserved of course as it was incredible. On the other hand Guida vs Pettis was also close but due to wresting biased judges he got the win, even though Pettis was the most active fighter

If Bendo keeps it up, I dont see anyone beating him. And I think thats why Guida wants nothing to do w/ a fight against Bendo, I was very surprised to hear him say that

Ben reminds me of Jones.... just natural born fighters man. Very calm and in control in the octagon.

Garduna · 08-19-2011, 03:53 PM

Guida is hiding from Bendo, kinda sad really. He wants his title shot without going through another up and comer.

and what I think is the best change, TUF will be live from now one, the fights that is. You will be pre-tapped footage from the previous week (like all the house BS) but all fights will be live. Think this is a nice change for a show that was getting worse and worse

I didn't know the fights will be live on TUF, that will make it very interesting!!

Can't wait for UFC RIO this Saturday! Great card. Silva vs. Okami 2!!

BMW86 · 08-22-2011, 08:19 AM

Man I can't wait for this fight. I always get excited when I see Silva fight, I'm guaranteed to see someone get an ass whooping. I think Okami is going to get KO'd.

BMW_TT · 08-22-2011, 08:24 AM

Silva will take it

escobar929 · 08-22-2011, 09:55 AM

im hoping Silva KOs him in the first couple of min and doesnt take any damage, so we can see him fight on FOX on Nov 12th

I'd love to see Silva rape Okami like how he did with Forrest. Complete and utter devastation.

I'm really rooting for Big Nog, I want him to win so bad. Kinda like a Veteran coming home.

Same here. I'm going for all the Brazilians on the card, I really want them to win. I really like Griffin though, he's awesome. I'd hate to see Big Nog lose to Schuab though.

BMW86 · 08-24-2011, 12:22 AM

Hmm not sure how much cash I should throw down on this card. A Silva Win is a given!

escobar929 · 08-24-2011, 06:33 AM

yea, I would love for the Silva fight to be a replay of Condit vs Kim. and I am too rooting for big Nog, I like Brandon but I dont wanna see big Nog get koed like all of Brandons last few opponents but I think this kid can be really something in another year or so

and lol at dan hardy "I have Silva by TKO in the second. He will win by jumping spinning split kick and credit [Jean Claude] Van Damme, his new coach, for the win."

I Lol'd at that too!

escobar929 · 08-24-2011, 09:39 AM

so a new rumor going around, if Silva wins w/ out taking too much damage on sat, he might face Hendo on FOX, I would love to see that rematch!

san~man · 08-24-2011, 12:30 PM

I'm rooting for Okami, sometimes it's good for the champ to lose and then come back stronger/better (i.e. GSP).

Yep and if they can't sign Hendo they will apparently give him Sonnen. IMHO, I think Sonnen is a fraud, he's entertaining to listen to but he's a poor role model for the sport. It wouldn't surprise me if he gets done for banned substances again, the guy just lies non-stop. I really want to see him get KO'd.

I'd like to see Silva retire undefeated. I'd hate to see Silva go down to Okami but anything can happen!

Daniel135i · 08-25-2011, 02:26 AM

My picks:

Okami
Shaub
Griffin

Any one else not Brazilian
