searched for UFC and liddell and nothing came up soooo....

chuck knocks out randy in the first round. wow. i had no idea it would be that quick. props to chuck for taking care of business... props to randy for being a classy warrior who makes no excuses for being rocked.

now... during the post fight in ring interview... chuck says he wants wanderlei silva. i think he's outta his mind. rampage jackson wiped the floor with chuck.... and if u follow pride at all... u know that silva PWNZ rampage. anyway, i guess it would be interesting to see... but i hope to see Chuck-Randy III first.
 
Good to know...after his fight against Rich Franklin, I was thinking that Chuck would KO him as well. Too bad I missed the fights...stupid homework.
 
randy got caught with a right (i think) hook... he was rocked and tried to come back and smother chuck with sorta wild punches. chuck just placed a punch right on randy's chin.... dropped like a bag of bricks.
 
Speaking of Rich Franklin....anybody else think he looks like Jim Carrey in the Cable Guy.
How much lower can Shamrock get after getting knocked out in the first round by Jim Carrey....🙂
 
Best fight was Hughes / Trigg. Country Boy when he carried Trigg across the cage... crazy country boy, what a comeback. Randy unfortunately got caught with a thumb to the eye... he's too classy to say that bothered his eye sight but it probably did. Randy was trying to exchange & was throwing some wild punches & Chuck caught him with a good right hook & Randy went too sleep. Chuck imo would get owned by Silva.
 
hughes had an awesome comeback after getting caught in the nutbag. he took some punishment when looking to the ref for help... and survived the rear naked choke. yeah, when he picked up trigg and ran him across the ring... i was just like "holy sh!t" :shocked:
 
Watching these fights just proves one thing- you never know the outcome until it's over. Sometimes you have a fresh, healthy fighter get dropped instantly because he got knocked out. Sometimes you have an out of shape guy get physically dominated and pounded like clay for 3 rounds and come through in the end with a submission or a lucky shot. You just never know.

I want to know what happened with Couture. He seemed to get cut in his eye and they examined him, and he never seemed fully there after that. Could he see, or was in pain or something? When he came out in the beginning he was quick and alert. After the cut he seemed to be stumbling and throwing sloppy punches, and that was before he even got caught with a solid punch. Sort of reminds me of the one fight where his eyelid got cut and the fight was called.

And did anyone else notice in that one fight with the wacky guy, towards the end of the fight his right eye went crossed.

That's the bad thing about getting knocked out. You could be 300 lbs of solid muscle and have Bruce Lee skills too, but when you're knocked out, you're knocked out. You always look bad when you're put to sleep in the ring. No matter how skilled you are or what kind of conditioning you have, your brain can only take so much... everyone can get knocked out.
 
i think chuck just came to this fight prepared. even right out of the opening bell... chuck was doing well with his counter-punching. i am not sure how much of an effect the thumb in the eye was, but randy shook it off and continued on. based on the beginning of the fight, i think chuck executed pretty well in keeping randy at a distance, which works to his advantage as a striker. it looked to me as though randy was having trouble reaching chuck with any meaningful punches, and even before the eye poke, he threw some wierd and wild punches. it just didn't seem like randy's night. all i know is... there needs to be a rubber match.
 
UFC 52, UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE. Even my man Mayhem lost. Matt Hughes' turnaround from getting kneed in the balls to choking out Frank Trigg was AMAZING! That was the fight of the night. I am still shocked that Randy was knocked out. Pride Grand Prix with Vitor Belfort and Rampage is next week! April is and was an exciting month for MMA!

i dunno when it was, but i saw some pride greatest knockouts show, and they had this highligth reel for rampage.... chuck got his ass handed to him... then later i saw rampage get beat silly by wanderlei. wanderlei is just a badass mofo. chuck... it's your funeral :laugh:
 
Just wanted to echo some of the comments...

Hughes is a frickin' tough guy... WOW. That was an awesome fight, I didn't expect him to come back from that - when he picked up Trigg and basically RAN across the ring with him and slammed him down - wow! that was one of the coolest things I've seen in MMA.

The big fight was pretty short but decent. I can't wait for a rubber match - they are both class acts too imho which is good to see.
