that is interesting i thought watching the fight that he tapped from the elbows. I guess even with the knee surgeries Anderson was strong enough to choke him out

^^UFC 43 against Falaniko Vitale(who's no slouch, by the way), back in June of 2003. I didn't know what had happened for a second when I was watching the PPV live, but after a few I started laughing hard.

 

[CaptainCharisma]

did anyone else hear bout the EXC show last night? Frank Shamrock got himself DQed by kneeing Gracie in the head, and his excuse was he didnt know the rules...idiot

 

[CaptainCharisma]

heres a little something someone showed me, Diego Sanchez wrote this on Josh Koscheks MySpace:

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY HUMAN BLANKET, I HOPE YOU PACK SOME BALLS IN YOUR SUIT CASE WHEN YOU COME TO H TOWN, PLEASE DONT TRY TO DRY HUMP ME LIKE ALL YOUR OTHER BORING ASS FIGHTS. IM READY RIGHT NOW!!!! I ASKED DANA FOR YOU!!

P.S. YOU AINT GOT HANDS

Koschek will rock his socks

 

[fallen]

lol i'm not a big fan of either but Diego will beat Josh's ass 2nd round ko

 

[CaptainCharisma]

i dont think so man, the last time they fought Kos didnt know shit about MMA and he lost a hair close decision, since they fought Diegos beat some cans and gotten some HUGE gifts (John Allessio, Karo Parisyan) while on the other hand, Kos may be boring at time but hes beaten some pretty solid, not great, fighters (Jonathan goulet, Jeff Joslin)
also Diego's hands are pretty shitty (you can't judge him on the Riggs fight, cause that was a flash KO) i would say Kos and Diegos hands are about the same, which means its gonna come down the Kos's wrestling. If Kos goes for the Blanket move, Diego will lose

 

[onebigeric]

Koscheck can't hang with Diego. If Riggs couldn't, the frizz-monster doesn't stand a chance.

Yeah, I'm no fan of Josh's attitude or overall demeanor. I believe he's entirely too cocky, and as such has bought into his own hype. Plus, it annoys me how Rogan and Goldberg have chosen him as their new 'our-heads-up-his-butt-boy' since BJ's fallen from their 'he's so amazing' list.

Dana White will be fighting Tito Ortiz in a boxing match.

You heard it here first.

They've been kicking this around since Tito was in negotiations for his return. We'll have to see if they get it past the hype stage.

Dana would stand a credible chance here though, if he could blow of the dust a bit.

 

[fallen]

Well yeah thats true i guess i just hate Kos more than Deigo lol, but on a side note if i can get out of the academy early that sat i'll be flying down to watch the fight live in H-town baby

i think they were supposed to do this a couple of months ago, but the NSAC didnt let them go through because of a mismatch

lucky bastard , that'll be a good card

 

[CaptainCharisma]

i heard a rumor (from someone close to Arlovski apparently) that the UFC is 50/50 on having Arlovski fight...........WERDUM at UFC 70!!!!

only a rumor though, but still AA/Werdum would be pretty badass and be a good way to rank AA properly

 

[thedon]

ufc is gunna be in manchester on the 21st of april, first time since 2002...fuck! i hope it comes to canada soon

 

[CaptainCharisma]

17 days till Captain American comes back to recclaim his title

 

[CaptainCharisma]

Cro Cop's next fight will be at UFC 70 (In England) will be against Gabriel Gonzaga, this is what Cro Cop said about him:

"Never heard of him. But if UFC thinks he's an ideal opponent for me, I have no problem with that. I don't get to choose who I'll fight, and I have no reason to complain why my road to the title will be easier that I thought."



pre fight pwnage haha

 

[bodydropped]

Gonzaga for the win

















well maybe not

 

[onebigeric]

I'd roll with the 'maybe not' scenario, BD

Gonzaga was pushed as a contender by Dana after Congo showed he was unable to deal with any kind of ground game, ergo killing the thunder White was trying to attatch to him being Sylvia's next contender. With the recent addition of Mirko, as well as the return of Randy and Arlovski, Gonzaga is looking smaller by comparison. Mirko via TKO in round two.

 

[fallen]

I don't thing it will go into the 2nd round even. Cro Cop tko frist round
