meh

only reason i created this was for Nelson vs Miocic

WAR Fatboy Nelson!

 

[dbk]

He's fighting again? so soon!

 

[JEDI]

He's fighting again? so soon!

Fatboy didnt even develop a sweat in his 1st round tko on Kongo.

let see if Miocic is smarter than Kongo and circles AWAY from fatboy's haymaker right.

i like fatboy but he's a 1 trick pony.. haymaker right. avoid that right and you win.
Kongo should fire his training team

not really a 1 trick pony. he is a black belt in BJJ under the renzo gracie and a winner of the ADCC. he is great on the ground. one of the top heavyweights with a ground game.

most refuse to take him down. so he is content to bang.

i do wish he would move from always KO'ing people. but hell its working.

I sure don't expect a large turnout for this card at the bar.

yeah but when was the last time fatboy won via ground game? years ago.
it's a no brainer that his haymaker is his current #1 threat. guess Kongo didnt get that memo

 

[WiseUp216]

This card would be a helluva lot better if they didn't lose Shogun/Little Nog and Wineland/Barao to injuries.

On paper, a very weak lineup for a PPV but you never know. Sometimes these are the shows that surprise you.

 

[khel]

Its starting guys bumping up where the ufc guys at lol

 

[railer]

whatever happened to woosta anyway? <sniff> I miss that guy. <sniff>

 

[khel]

welll.. first fight is already over

 

[JBT]

I freaking love Nelson, probably my favorite fighter right now.

 

[waggy]

ohh.

nelson is not looking good.

 

[waggy]

ugh. nelson has great BJJ. yet he tries to stand and bang when he is loseing. fuck idiot.

 

[JEDI]

and this is what happens when you circle AWAY from fatboys power right.. you win

fatboy needs to change his 1 dimentional game plan

 

[waggy]

and this is what happens when you circle AWAY from fatboys power right.. you win

that has been tried many many times. this guy hit first and often. combined with every time big country moved he threw up a arm to block that power hit.

 

[khel]

nelson just got killed... but still cant ko him crazy...

time for evans vs hendo... better be good

 

[WiseUp216]

Well, definitely a stinker of a main card. 162 should be a great one, though.

 

[khel]

couldnt tell who won... but yeah fights were ehh

 

[WiseUp216]

I had Henderson win rounds 1 & 2, Rashad winning 3.

Hard to say, though...I'm biased towards Hendo.

same. i had hendo 1-2 rashad 3.

but i admit im biased for hendo also. it was a good fight.

though i give tonight over all "meh"

 

[JBT]

Well Nelson gets owned, and Hendo loses too... uggg bad night.

 

[JEDI]

though i give tonight over all "meh"

as expected.

the one thing that peaked my interest is that there are new fighters in the top10 lhw rankings.
hopefully it'll be Jones vs these new guys instead of guys he already beat.

btw- is it me or has every Strikeforce champ fallen to a UFC champ?

 

[Rudee]

Would not be the least bit surprised if Nelson ends up with serious brain injury in the next 10 years from concussions. Solid jaw or not, those blows are damaging to the brain.

He broke the record last night for most head strikes absorbed in the UFC. It was something like 470+. Pretty crazy that his only KO was from Arlovski pre-UFC.

 

[WaTaGuMp]

Boring card for me, the bar was dead as I said it would be. This card should not of been a PPV anyhow.
