[email protected] Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 I don't know if any of you heard that several sites that were showing UFC fights, have been shut down by the US gov't. I'm wondering which sites you are going to be using for this upcoming event ?? All the sites I had been using have been shut down.
Terry Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 yeah I heard they were shutting them all down well you could get some guys together and buy it... or you can download it the next day for a bitTorrent site or a modded free to air satellite receiver

Cudz Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Try fromsport It has not been shut down yet. I think it is european. they always show as well.
miller Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 i try my local boston pizza, get together with a few buddies and grab some tasty grub
SBCregal Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 we used to go to the bars to watch the events too but with what it costs for the two of us to have a few pops, some grub and then cab it home afterwards it turns out cheaper for us to just order the ppv and consume the beers and food that we have here the one time that i did try and watch it online, it went down somewhere around the main event... no fun.
Jigger Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 I'm with Miller. Nothing wrong with some nachos and wings to go along with the brown pops! Has more of an event feel to it too.
richyb Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 i have to work ... my picks ... belfort tko round 2.... griffen sub frankin rd 1... man i hate my weekend job...
misfish Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Hey Rich. I have to agree with ya on yer picks. Sadly spider goes down, we wont get to see a GSP VS Spider. Were staging, so it,s bought and payed for.
steverowbotham Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Although I think Belfort is Silva's toughest challenger in a while, he hasnt fought at 185 in a couple years. I think if he doesnt finish it inside of 2 rounds, Silva will finish him by the 3rd or 4th round Griffin will beat Franklin by decision, on his size advantage alone Bones should be able to beat Bader, but Bader could just as easily win it. Awesome fight either way
robp Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Don't forget to catch the UFC debut of Japanese standout Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto as he faces Demetrious Johnson. For those who don't know Kid Yamamoto he's an exciting 135 pounder whose always fought above his weight class but has the speed and power to put guys away. In fact, of his 18 wins just 3 have gone to decision, 2 by sub and 13 by KO/TKO <---Thats alot! especially for his weight class. He's facing another speed demon in Johnson so we should see fireworks. Best of all it's being streamed on Facebook @ 8:25pm EST for FREE! GO KID
Phranchise Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) wooooooooo what a head kick by Silva, never seen anything like that before. For those interested, Griffin (decision), Jones (submission) and Silva (knockout) all winners. Edited February 6, 2011 by Phranchise
miller Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 WOW what a knockout, i was glad to see him take it and glad to see the respect shown after the fight that was great sportsmanship
misfish Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 If you blinked you missed it.Crazy kick.I was in awe. So after seeing that kick,what ya think of GSP,s chances?
BillM Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 GSP vs Silva would be awesome, but it really means nothing. If GSP loses it will because he had to gain weight, if Silva loses it will because he lost weight.
Twocoda Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 ahhhhhhhhhhh crap.....i missed the fights !!!!! the wife went and bought ALL the seasons of "how i met your Mother" telvision series and we had a marathon..i feel so violated... side note- if any of you guys ever get caught in the situation of having to watch an entire sitcom marathon....go with this one ....lots of cleavage and womanizing ...kinda funny to say the least...but i still feel violated for missing the fights...
Terry Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 good fights.... I was hoping Silva would have to work a little harder
steverowbotham Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 GSP vs Silva would be awesome, but it really means nothing. If GSP loses it will because he had to gain weight, if Silva loses it will because he lost weight. The fight will be for the 185 pound belt, so Silva wont be losing extra weight. Silva doesnt look out of place at 205 and I think he will be monstrous compared to GSP. I love GSP but I'd put a lot of money on Silva in that fight.

Steve sadly I have to agree with you.But hey, crap happens.Never know,but I would have to put my money on Silva. Has Silva ever faced a guy that can control like GSP can on the ground?
richyb Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 I think gsp could do the same as sonnen and put him on his back.
miller Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 chael sonnen on roids was the best control he's faced on the ground but sonnen's ground game isn't close to being as good as gsp. gsp has some of the best guard passing i've seen and he is very well versed in submissions as well. on the feet i'd say silva hands down but on the ground i think st pierre could take it.
steverowbotham Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Sonnen was able to provide the perfect blueprint for GSP to beat Anderson. That being said, Anderson Silva is a good 25lbs heavier and 4 inches taller than GSP and I think that size will make the biggest difference in this fight.
