WEC "VS" anyone watching?

[somewhatgifted]

Seen some great fights and talent on this show. Oddly ive never heard of it before, theyve been picking up some UFC and KOTC guys. Guys like Urijah Faber and Brock larson make it easy to watch.

WEC is the farm system of the UFC now. They are using it also as a medium for the PRIDE guys to get used to fighting in a cage. There have been some awesome WEC fights over the years.

That makes alot of sense.

Look up the James Irvin v. Doug Marshall fight...crazy, crazy stuff.

Started to watch this the other night after someone told me it was on VS. They do have some good fighters. Faber, Razor Rob, Paulo Filho now.:thumbsup: Faber is a stud. He looks big for 145lbs I wonder what he cuts down from?

Faber really does not cut that much weight. I think he only cuts ~5 lbs or so, but at that size it really makes a difference.

I'm not sure if we can imbed videos any more.

I caught the same fights on vs did anyone watch the tapout crews showing training sessions at the pit. I thought it was pretty neat all of the unconventional training styles heckelman uses. But wow the tapout crew it out there I don't know if I'm feeling those guys. There like a side show act, the Kiss band of MMA.

 

[somewhatgifted]

guess i cant.

:icon_lol: I'm not really liking them either. Do you really have to wear lame makeup to get noticed?

I'm liking the WEC. Faber's exciting as hell and there's some good action in most of the fights. How about Kit Cope trying to throw a gogo on Razor Rob.

Lol Kit Cope, I was really hoping he would adapt to MMA. His BJJ has improved slightly. But he lost to KenFlo.

Have u guys seen Kit Cope on the spike TV show? Can't think of the name. It pretty lame just thought I would throw out there.

Here's your first vid embedded, SWG.




How do you do it?
Put the letters for the two words You Tube in brackets [** ] on the left side of the number, in this case, n-z_VPNChgU that's in the url, the number only, delete everything else, including the v= and the same two letters with a forward slash before them in brackets to the right side. [/** ]

I have to use ** for the letters down here or else it puts a blank box placeholder into the page. To put the vid in, I used the letters.

You use the line that says URL, not the line that says embedded.

 

[UNCfan1]

I will try that to see if it works.



LOL RD what I am doing wrong?

Thank u RD, I got it now lol.

We've joked about Kit before on here. I think he's like 1-7 in MMA or something just riding his MTV True Life fame (Did I just admit to watching MTV?). His BJJ looks improved though (that's why I mentioned it above) and he has some solid Muay Thai cred. I think his show was Wild World of Sport and as I recall I think Goldie does the commentating.

Unforunately after his WEC Fight, Kit tested positive for steroids (don't remember which one)...

Really, I would not doubt that. Maybe winny that seems to be popular. Vitor Belfort and a few others tested for that one.

 

[JZ7757]

Kit is a tool. He hasnt shown us anything at all. He is one of the super stars in one sport that couldnt hang in MMA.

After getting his ass handed to him by RR, he tested pos for Boldenone (Equipoise). From what ive heard, it is used primarly to aid cutting/mask other substances.

[JZ7757]

Oh and ive also caught WEC on VS. I think they just started playing them and wrecage recently.

Good fights and new talent, and old UFC "opponent" talent. It seems they hold title matches allot more than the UFC/pride do too, probably cause of its size.

I actually like the WW of S. Jason Ellis, the skater, is a funny dude. Kit tells horrible jokes, and Jason and the jewish comedian guy laugh AT him. Oh, Jas, you admit to watching MTV. I remember Kit's girlfriends name from True Life. Damn, Aubrey had a fine ass.

I'll admit to watching it before as it does suck you in somehow. They show some hot chicks, but it's one of those shows that I feel like I wasted time by watching. As for MTV, there are some guys on RW/RR challenge that I think could shake up the MMA world. "the Miz" + a year of training > Fedor.:twisted:

I was going to start a thread on Wreckage, but then saw this thread.

RECAP:
For those not familiar with the WEC, it's more or less the little bro of the UFC now. Check out the show Wreckage, which is pretty much the same as UFC Unleashed on Spike, but for the WEC: http://www.versus.com/nw/article/view/37850/?tf=wrekcage.tpl&catID=76

 

[somewhatgifted]

Ive seen some real talent on there.. crazy sub attemtpts and moves you never see outside of world class judo.

 

[stxnas]

From what I understand Jens is moving down to 145. At first I thought this meant that the UFC would be bringing up a new class, but now I think it's just a marketing gimic to shine light on the WEC. There is definite talent in the WEC and I'm sure they'll take full advantage of Jens and the Miller brothers now that TUF Season 5 is over.

 

[longtom74]

Its sad to say, buy I'll watch anything mma. Whether its good or not.
