Spike, w/e that is for you.

[Blarg]

Lauzon, Karo, Hamill, nate diaz, frankie, Guida (I look forward to every fight of his), manny, din, aurelio, i'd like to see houston win but I'm not sure on that

the roman v george fight is pretty interesting as we don't know much about roman since he had to leave the show but he looked really impressive so it could be a good fight

Cung Le vs. Frank Shamrock was supposed to be a good brutal fight, haven't found it online yet.

[Remyo]

coming on again in 15 minutesish if you have Showtime East and West.

was not expecting the fight to end like that, a little disappointing. Also, remember why I dislike strikeforce rules, that melendez would've been over a lot sooner had they allowed elbows.

Everone talks shit about how "Cung Le's unorthodox kicks don't work in MMA" but as far as I'm concerned they work until they stop knocking people the fuck out or breaking their forearms.

i've got one word for you...takedowns.

if frank hadn't been so set on standing with him the whole time and "keeping his word" he could have taken him down a half dozen times. those kicks leave him very open to getting taken down.

yea, franks a moron though. Oh and those rumors on sherdog about this fight being a work look pretty correct now.

What do you mean? Is there evidence, or just a general outlook?

[Chips]

Well, I'm not saying that the fight wasn't or work, though I highly doubt it. Found this article or Sherdog saying that Frank has to have a plate put in his arm.

Frank's Arm Plate

A guy guy posted info from within A Cung Le affiliate camp that frank would lose in a controversial way to set up a rematch that Le would lose and lead to a rubber match for real. I'm not totally believing the conspiracy but he was pretty much spot on about it, plus the way the fight just looked like a sparring match and after Cung tripped frank he din't even act like he was worried and turned his back to him when he got up.

You definitely know more about this than I do, but isn't the word on Cung Le is that he has very good standup and very good takedown defense, and is a very good wrestler when he is on the ground? I thought that part of the reason that Frank wanted to stand up (besides proving that he could) was that Cung is a better wrestler than Frank is.

Frank's strategy seemed stupid until halfway through the 3rd round, when he started actually putting some nice shots on Cung and the fight looked like it might turn Frank's way...well, til the whole kick in the face/broken forearm thing.

Le is supposed to be a great wrestler, but he left himself WIDE open for takedowns about 100 times. every time he threw a kick...he was open. the biggest thing is that frank is awesome at finding weird subs and taking advantage of weak ground game...while cung is a great wrestler...those are the guys that leave themselves wide open to subs because they're thinking wrestling instead of jiu jitsu. it took me a long time to think jiu jitsu while i was on the ground and make myself not fall back into wrestling habits so i stopped getting caught in practice.
