danbo Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Wow, Hey Blackfish..I doubt you would say that to Mr. Arlovski's face..so why say it here? Mirko got sent to his happy place, that's for sure. It's a rough sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKFISH88 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 (edited) because he said it at the end of the fight not me and if your a fan i'd think you'd know.I just find it funny how they hype it all up with highlights of asswhoopin then they dance around like they are square dancin I don't know sure he'd beat me up but I've never trained but I know a good fight when I see one.....

charlesn Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 The past 8 months proves beyond a doubt that in MMA, any top level guy can be beaten by any other top level guy. Well except Fedor. But I'm only counting non-cyborgs. lol Hughes gets annihilated, by GSP who gets dummied by Serra who barely squeaks through a lacklustre TUF. Hendo loses to Kazuo Misaki in the Grand Prix Semi-Finals and Kazuo gets dominated by Paulo Filho who withdraws due to injury and then Kuzuo goes on and wins the GP beating Denis Kang. Then he gets dominated by Frank Trigg who subsequently gets viciously knocked out by Robbie Lawler a journeyman who fell out of the UFC after several losses. Hendo then goes on from a loss at 182 to destroy Wanderlei Silva at the 205 weight cut off. Thierry Sokodjou meanwhile comes out of nowhere and destroys 2 of the top 5 ranked 205 lbers in the world Rogerio Nogueira and Ricardo Arona. Yet imo, this destruction of Cro-Cop by Gonzaga has got to be the biggest shocker. Wow. Gotta love it. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glirw Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Arlovski was the one pushing the pace the entire fight . The fact that he was cautious in his strikes was simply coz Werdum is an explosive guy and you do have to be careful in how you come in at him ! Werdum was the one always backing up and being passive , he shouldve had a point deducted. One thing I wanted to see Arlovski do is throw his overhand right, which he didnt at all. And Mirko , I don't know , I certainly didn't expect it , but man oh man .... that leg looked like a mess. I hope he recovers quickly and comes back strong, although it's not looking likely now.

charlesn Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Do they have point deductions in the UFC? I know in Pride they give yellow cards for inaction. Not sure I've ever seen a point deduction for stalling in the UFC. How would Tito's lay and pray technique be effective otherwise? lol Werdum looked terrible. I think Arlovski's leg kicks took their toll on him and Werdum never did enough to press the action and fatigue Arlovski enough to get a take-down. Pride's guys are certainly lacklustre since coming to UFC. I always thought the Pride guys were better overall, but it doesn't seem that way outside of Anderson Silva so far. Heath Herring, Mishima, Werdum, Gomi and Cro-Cop all have lost and Rampage didn't look great either all up against middle-of-the-road UFC talent.

Jigger Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 I love watching fights and was in martial arts for the better part of 10yrs, but with what happened to Cro-Cop...I don't know if I can watch anymore. I thought the high kick from Rashad Evans was brutal. This one takes the cake. I thought right away that Cro Cop was dead. Good thing hes not but its only a matter of time and I don't know if I want to see that happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish4me Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 don't forget its a different ring and different rules from pride and ufc, that transition can take some time which might explain some of the struggles the pride guys have had.

pigeonfisher Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 he doesn't look good that's for sure. But what do I know? that leg looked like some type of injury you would see in football. Hope he's alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehg Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 When these jujitsu guys learn how to strike it seems they can't be beaten. The UFC would have preferred CroCop to win for marketing, at least it isn't fxed! If you think of the toughest streetfighter you ever met he would probably last 30 seconds in the ring with these dudes. ehg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
