The MMA Thread of 2009-Forever

all throughout the broadcast and from dana in interviews they have said that if vitor wins he is in line for a title shot against anderson

oh nice. prior to this I'd been hearing and reading otherwise.

[tyven]

id like to see vitor vs anderson and nate vs henderson... ON THE SAME CARD. then the winners fight eachother LATER THAT SAME NIGHT

[FNH]

I always liked tournament style fights

[tyven]

they can hold it in japan and it would seem perfectly normal

[Blarg]

lol at the mayweather post fight

[donnie]

ahahaah the only one who was a more douche then mayweather was the interviewer what an idiot hahahahaha

Good card last night. I am a bit saddened by Cro Cop losing, but it wasn't unexpected. Really glad to see Belfort get a win and hopefully he'll continue the drop to 185 and dominate. He is a great match for Silva and I hope he can get that fight sooner rather than later.

I enjoyed this card very much. My assumptions about crocop were correct, he seems as though he is there to collect a check and walk out. Dos Santos is probably one of the best strikers I have ever seen in the octogon. He feel he will dominate the HW arena. I do want to know why he left chute box though, apparently he is in noguira's camp now.

I honestly couldn't enjoy this card because i cant stop thinking about 104. God damnit I want to see Shogun get his cardio fixed and beat Machida to become UFC LHW Champ. I really like Machida alot, but I want Shogun to get the title that has eluded him for so long. With Wandy camping the Pride belt until is closure and his 2 knee surgeries his career has gone off track. This is his chance to make it back.

A rematch with Rampage would be a wonderful thing to behold. I waited for Wandy/Page III for a long time, shame there will probably not ever be a IV.

Kongo is probably a better HW striker than santos.

Kongo is probably a better HW striker than santos.

hmmmm, you present a point that i must investigate

[Brill Weave]

Can't say I'm surprised Ace lost. Belfort was coming back in with something to prove. Now the question is whether or not he can keep it together to actually be a serious threat to the title.

Should this me legal in MMA?

I say yes, my friend thinks it should be illegal. In Wing Chun, we use stop kicks all the time, so I might be biased.

fuckin nice, i love slams like that.

He ducks the high kick, scoops him up from behind, and tosses his ass. Pretty good.

Damn looks like I missed some good hits. That purple hair nigga got dropped, that was a mean little kick > punch combo that guy threw.

It is illegal to do a front kick to the knee like that for a stop hit? Man, and they wonder why traditional MA guys don't participate in MMA, that's the first thing I'd do... that and Lop Sau punch a guy against the Octagon.

It is not illegal...he's asking if it "should" be. The traditional martial arts guys don't participate in MMA because they got destroyed in the beginning and realized they should keep that shit in the forms competitions.
