    UFC 67 Post-Fight Discussion

    Okay, I am quite sure the triangle was purely a lucky break for silva, you can tell he tried to go back to guard but lutter stacked on him, blocking his right leg and he took advantage of the opening. lutter definitely didn't respect silva's ground game and was trying to overpower him, and got...

    MMA and Bodybuilding?

    You can't train both hard at the same time. It's just not doable really. What you can do is train BB and work on technique several hours a day without going crazy on conditioning for a month or so, then cut your lifting volume down and go crazy on conditioning for a month and alternate back...

    Crocop has bigger balls than I thought

    Who's going to put 110% into getting ready for a fight with some noname loser?

    Who is the 'expert' in MMA?

    ROFL. Tim is a TOTAL dork. Too bad he wasn't the champion at that point or he could have worn the belt on his date, maybe then he would have done better :icon_lol:

    I am so F'ing excited!!!

    Ditch the bike bro. Stick to running, jump rope (try it with a weight vest :) and plyometrics.

    Fighters and Physiques

    Lifting weights is what gives you a ripped, lean physique. Most of these guys don't have the energy or the use for large volumes of weight lifting, and so even when they cut weight they stay somewhat soft (depending on their natural level of leanness). You can tell the fighters that lift a lot...

    Silva vs. Hendo at Pride 33?

    Wandy is very aggressive fighter by nature, and he really went for it with crocop. I don't really feel his change in weight had anything to do with his loss... He just tried to chase around a counterpuncher, which is exactly what you don't want to do.

    endurance?

    Beelze training log

    Hey there big guy, If you've got insurance, I'd suggest looking for a really good PT/SM doc to work with. You probably have some postural/strength/tightness issues that are contributing to your injury risk. I just recently started taking better care of my body and I wish I'd started years ago.

    Wow, Fedor/Monson and Aleks/Antonio Silva!!!

    Fedor only takes single fight contracts. He can do whatever he damned well pleases :D I'm sure that Bodog is tossing an assload of money at him. As for Monson/Fedor, it will be a beating I am sure. I am interested to see how Fedor plays this one, since monson isn't known to fight heavily...

    Fedor vs. Hunt announced for NYE!

    Personally I think LeBanner would make a great MMA fighter. Hoost and Aerts wouldn't make the transition so well though. Semmy Schilt should go fight in the UFC. I'd pay to watch him dismantle Tim Sylvia... That would put Tim's ego in check.

    Fedor vs. Hunt announced for NYE!

    Barnett will never be in fedor's league, for sure. Only Mirko has a shot and that's contingent on him being able to devise and execute a gameplan that lets him keep control of the fight, so he doesn't end up eating fedor GnP.

    Fedor vs. Hunt announced for NYE!

    As far as the UFC goes, I think if GSP continues developing the way he has been that he'll reach Fedor's level of skill within a couple of years. Crocop and Barnett are both improving a lot as well, though I don't think Mirko has what it takes to handle Fedor in their upcoming fight, another...

    Short cycles, some thoughts

    The evidence for benefit from short deconditioning periods is pretty weak. Though soviet studies have shown weightlifters will have up to a 20% reduction in strength over a 2 week period, weightlifting is a highly technical activity and the applicability of this information to bodybuilding is...

    Anyone Buy Instructional DVD's?

    I think Randy Coture and Frank Shamrock's centuryvision videos are both quite good. Bas Rutten's big dvd of combat is also near the top of the heap. Mark Hatmaker's stuff is decent too.

    Fedor vs. Hunt announced for NYE!

    Fedor will bang with hunt just until hunt hurts him, then it'll go to the canvas where hunt will get eaten alive.

    UFC 65, post fight discussion

    Yeah, those MMA guys don't know what's going on. They just walk out there and start swinging... Anyone could do that ;) Now bodybuilders on the other hand, you ever think about how much work it takes to get every last striation to pop out in excruciating detail while sporting extreme...

    UFC 65 gsp vs hughes fight (no sound)

    GSP is going to keep that title for a long time. Penn is a great fighter but IMO GSP is progressing a lot more quickly in his game and is a much better athlete, I don't think it'll go to decision next time around.

    UFC 65, post fight discussion

    When GSP won, everyone at the bar I was at just exploded. It was awesome. I really like GSP a lot and matt hughes just seems like kind of a jerk, so I'm pretty happy with the outcome there.
