Kompressor Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 reckon Melendez would have up Edgar tbh, Melendez Vs Maynard would be a interesting fight though, i hope we can see Mayhem Miller vs Shields now. long over due Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Medic Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Need to keep this topic update to date tbh.GSP vs Nick Diaz @ UFC 137. Dana White tweeted earlier today.Also Rampage set to face Jon Jones for the LHW belt. What do the MMA fans on here think of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Rampage is gonna get knocked the f*ck out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kompressor Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Jones aint been tested chin wise yet, so the jury could still be out. or it could be a re-run of the Rampage Shogun pride fight, Gsp vs Diaz sounds good on paper, but i reckon Gsp will do what he does best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Medic Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Gsp vs Diaz sounds good on paper, but i reckon Gsp will do what he does bestAgreed. I think the reason people want this is due to what Diaz brings to the table. Most of the challengers to the welterweight title have excelled in one aspect of MMA, but lacked in others, where GSP has taken advantage of.Koscheck, Fitch - Great wrestling, poor strikingAlves, Hardy - Good striking, poor takedown defenceShields - BJJ, no striking at allWith Diaz, he can stand and bang, more dangerous than GSP on the feet. If GSP does take him down, Diaz is comfortable working off his back. But like you say, its most probably going to be another 5 rounder with St.Pierre slowly grinding him down.

Kompressor Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 yh Gsp's wrestling and decent bjj will see him take it on points, however Diaz's boxing at the start of each round will make each round a toss up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Medic Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Its a shame we dont see the old GSP, now he's so scared to lose he doesnt want to commit./Michael Bisping and Jason Miller announced to be the coaches in the next TUF series. Should be entertaining with Miller continually provoking Bisping, wonder how he will react this time round. Would have made much better viewing if Chael Sonnen was the coach instead of Miller, but with all the drama around him it wasnt possible.Also TUF 13 finale on the weekend, Pettis vs Guida headlining. Kompressor, do you think Pettis should face the winner of Edgar/Maynard should he win on Saturday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kompressor Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 yeah, definitly, at the very least he'll bring some more excitment to the division, and tbh i cant see anyone else challenging for that belt in that division, the Guida fight could be a banana skin for him, as he's a tough guy, but i expect him to beat Guida on points (UD) and i expect it to be a very exciting fight, as thats what Clay Guida brings to the table, after Petis gets his shot, i expect Melendez to move over to the big show, and a super fight to be made, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Medic Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 Melendez didnt even occur to me! He looked phenomenal vs Kawajiri, really impressive boxing display. A superfight with Edgar would make a great match. Just finished watching TUF final episode, Tony Ferguson, who actually reminds me of a younger version of Melendez, is up against Ramsey Nijem. Ferguson has it in the bag imo, demolished all his opponents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kompressor Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 Nah I dunno, I think Ramsey will have him, IMO he's gotta better skill set even though Ferguson is an animal. They've both definitely been the stand out performers of the series and both deserve to be in the final, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kompressor Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 We could have a fight of the year contender here lads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kompressor Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 Excellent win for Guida did something I never thought he'd do, put tactical nouse forward in priority ahead of entreating the crowd, and he still managed to do both. Greg Jacksons magic works again. Reckon Melendez might move over now, as I don't think Guida warrants a tittle fight just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Medic Posted June 5, 2011 Report Share Posted June 5, 2011 Although everyone knew Guida's game plan, I'm still surprised he managed to win it. Pettis takedown defence, lack of it I should say, was put on show. Even though he looked dangerous from the bottom with those submission attempts, Guida's raw energy just overcame them. I really thought Pettis might have snatched it at the end of the 3rd with a possible rear naked, but again Guida bursts through. Very unfortunate for Pettis, he was number one contender and now will probably have to fight (and win) a couple more before he regains that position.Ferguson, what a beast, KO Nijem clean off his feet. Feel bad for Ramsey, he was defo one of my favs of the season, but I expect to see him back. LOL @ Chris Cope, he is nuts./Dos Santos vs Carwin next week! Really hyped for this, hoping for a crazy slugfest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Medic Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Tonight, prelims start at 1am. Main card begins 2am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kompressor Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Someones getting knocked the f*ck out tonight, Carwin's power actually scares me and i dont even have to fight him, Dos Santos has got speed on his side though, it'll be interesting to see if Carwins cardio has improved, but im not sure it'll go that far.Carwin is lighter than he was and they say they've been working on stamina so........Florian fight should be interesting. And that Abu Dhabi champ who Carwin was originally meant to be fight could be one to watch. Demian maia fight should be a good one aswell, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Medic Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Yeah Jon Olav, he trains alot with The Reem. His last fight was in 2006, and hes only had 3 fights since 2003. Not too sure how he will perform, but I dont think its going past the first round.Munoz to beat Maia imo, although I wouldnt be surprised if Maia somehow snuck in a triangle from being dropped into guard.I really want Nunes to win, he such a likeable guy. However, if the winner is to get a title shot, I'd rather see Florian face Aldo. It would be a crazy frantic match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
