[graftongal]

What are everyone's predictions for this Saturday's UFC fight? I am voting for St-Pierre.

St-Pierre and Jason MacDonald are my two favs in the UFC. Loiseau was doing really well too until his last couple of matches.

 

 

i hope sera doesnt get hurt

 

We can only hope!

Matt Serra should not even be in the octagon with STP. After the last show STP put on its proven now he's for real.

letting guys pound each other, watching it and liking it

 

some people treat their dogs better...go figure....LOL

 

 

I will be watching it

Anyone remember Gary Goodridge? he was a beast I think he was from Barrie but he kinda slipped out of the spotlight.

just to play the devils advocate (i already put my vote for gsp in)... serra isnt a can, he went the distance with karo, and penn.. that was a freak shot that he took against shonie.. if georges gets sloppy, he could very well get caught in a sub.. and we'd have a 10-1 underdog win..

the question is, do you put your drink down while you watch?

 

Go George Go.

If Serra wins it will be the biggest upset in UFC history, and maybe in the history of all fighting sports.

 

They need to put something else on the card than what they have, this fight will be suck. The last fight night was one of the best ever!

I know MMA-Math doesn't work , but this really is a no brainer.

 

Serra is short, kinda like Sean Sherk ... if you remember that fight , Pierre jabbed the life outta Sherk , and always stayed out of his reach .

 

IF Serra manages to close the distance , his wrestling isn't even superior to that of St. Pierre , as you saw in St. Pierre's last fight with Hughes , and we all know Hughes beat Serra before.

 

If the odds were a bit prettier, I'd put the house on St. Pierre.

 

What about Guillard vs. Stevenson ? I'm picking stevenson by ground and pound .

[Bitsmith2k]

sokudjou ktfo'ing lil' nog was a huge upset (i think the odds were +1600).. that said serra beating gsp would be huge..

 

i'm looking forward to guillard / stevenson.. i really have a dislike for guilard so i hope he gets tapped out..

My youngest brother trains with Gary, he's still around, but he's under contract with K-1, so thats where he's fighting now. He's fighting in the k-1 Hawaiian Grand Prix on April 28.

No posts yet about Sanchez/Koscheck. That will be the fight of the night guaranteed!

I'm nice to the dog, I leave the pounding to Reefhawg.

GSP all the way!! and a pride fight on Sunday... with Don Frye (one of his fight is my all time favorites) and butterbean..

 

 

Heres my all time favorite fight.. it was the first or second time I ever watched MMA

 

Not much finnesse... but these are some tough buggers....

Gotta love YouTube....

 

Frye returned to PRIDE in February of 2002, facing long-time rival Ken Shamrock at PRIDE 19. After a long, tough battle, Frye pulled out a decision victory. The two hugged after the fight ended, putting an end to their rivalry. Frye vs. Takayama, PRIDE 21 Just four months after defeating Ken Shamrock, Frye returned to face Japanese pro wrestling legend Yoshihiro Takayama at PRIDE 21. In a fight that many consider to be one of PRIDE's most exciting matches, Frye and Takayama clinched in a "hockey fight" pose, each holding the head and hitting, with Takayama finally going to the body after more than a full minute of unrelenting, undefended shots. This would happen three times in the fight, until the referee stopped the bout after Frye mounted Takayama, who was visibly much worse for the wear.

No more PRIDE fighting now, all UFC now that they bought them out. see here:

 

UFC

 

This will make the UFC alot more interestingand exciting. Like to see Emelianenko take on Cro Crop again but in a UFC match, that would be cool. Jackson and Liddel will be fighting in May so that will be another to watch as well. Go Liddel!!

UFC and Pride will be sharing in some promotions; however, I don't believe any ownership changed hands.

[mart]

After the smack down GSP put on Hughes to win the belt, GSP shouldn't even break a sweat!!!! This fight

won't even reach the 2nd round..

I'm interested in seeing who is going to be in GSP's corner. GSP has been training with Renzo Gracie in NY for his past couple fights and John Danaher, one of Renzo's top instructors at the main school in NY, has been in his corner. Matt Serra happens to be a Renzo Gracie Balck Belt, I'm curious to see whats going to happen.

UFC did buy Pride, last week! The company's will remain separate, but will have Dream cards, from time to time!

 

The possible Fights were even listed by Dana White at the Press conference. There are some articles on UFC.com if you want to read more!

 

This is a Great thing for MMA, Also if you watch Dana at the Press conference, its pretty funny what he says about other company's!

[Bitsmith2k]

the fertitta's actually bought pride, so technically it wasnt the ufc, or zuffa inc.. and as grizz said, they're 'supposed' to be operating as seperate entities, but since all ownership is on the same page, the dream fights are supposed to happen..

 

there's actually been quite a bit of rumbings goin on in the forums that ufc are going to announce big nog. as an aquisition tonite.. which would be really cool.. i also think on the pride side of things, if this is true, it opens up for a Barnett / Fedor fight..
