UFC 65, post fight discussion
Okay, that has to be one of the better UFC events I've seen in a while. On the undercard, a lot of quick beatdowns which kept the action flowing fairly smoothly. Frank Trigg got beat down more quickly than I expected, but otherwise everything went as expected. Sylvia vs Monson, I have to say... -
Shockwave 2006
Nog/Barnett was probably the best grappler on grappler fight I've ever seen. There needs to be a rematch for sure. Hunt/Fedor wouldn't be too much of a fight for fedor either, he's got too many holes in his game. -
My ruined batch of prepared PhloJel
DGME is a great solvent but a mediocre penetration enhancer. With pharmaceutical topical preparations they aren't concerned so much about the flux of the system as they are about other properties.- exnihilo

Shockwave 2006
I am not really interested in a wandy/nog fight. I don't think it would be very exciting. Yoshida/Fedor would be a one sided bloodbath, Yoshida's style plays RIGHT into Fedor's. I think Mirko's improved ground game at this point would make the crocop/fedor rematch a lot more interesting... -
My take on MMA and the direction it's going
What a troll. Traditional martial arts practitioners don't practice "MMA illegal techniques" either - kind of hard to spar/drill eye gouging, groin attacks, etc. So what this comes down to is that you say you can walk the walk, but MMA trained athletes are just as well trained to pull this... -
Should CC/Fedor II happen in Vegas or Japan?
Yeah, Fedor taking that slam and submitting Randleman within like 30 seconds was pretty legendary. -
UFC 66 Liddell vs. Ortiz 2
Chuck's a hard puncher, but I think his biggest advantage is his hard head. Even when he gets rocked, he still manages to retain composure somehow. If you look at his losses, he ends up getting mounted and beat into a TKO, yet the whole time he's getting beat down he looks totally cognizant of... -
Should CC/Fedor II happen in Vegas or Japan?
The Fedor/CC2 will be in Japan for sure. The gate on that puppy would be way to big to blow for a little extra american exposure. They'll milk the 40k gate in Japan, and push the PPV here. -
Pride 32: Real Deal Post Fight Discussion
The event was certainly nowhere near the calibur of the OWGP finals, that's for sure. The production value was a lot lower than you typically see in japanese pride events but it was still on par or superior to that of the UFC. Hopefully the next show will have improved production value (though... -
Pride 32: Real Deal Post Fight Discussion
If I were Coleman I'd feel REALLY bad right now. He fought an entire round for a takedown, only to get into Fedor's open guard and get armbar'd exactly the same way as before, only this time it made him look like a total idiot because he KNEW fedor had a sick armbar from guard. I guess... -
UFC 64: Post Fight Discussion
The NSAC is SO gay. More gay than Ubiquitous even ;) -
UFC 65 Hughes/St. Pierre....Sylvia/Monson
Jerome LeBanner is such a badass on his feet, better than crocop imo. He would beat the sh!t out of sylvia, I mean make him look BAD. -

UFC 65 Hughes/St. Pierre....Sylvia/Monson
GSP has what it takes to dismantle Matt Hughes... As for Tim Sylvia, I want to see him get taken apart by almost any pride heavyweight. I literally can't think of too many pride heavyweights that wouldn't beat Timmy, except for Giant Silva. -
Pride USA - the Return of Fedor
That article is wrong IMO. Pride is trying to give american fans a benchmark of the skill of their fighters by pitting them against fighters that have competed in america before. The fact that coleman and randleman are american is just icing on the cake. The pride billboard in my area says... -
Franklin vs. A. Silva Poll
The I've been saying for a while that most fighters have a big hole in their game when it comes to fighting in the clinch. That is what makes Wand and Shogun so dangerous. Of course, clinch-specializing fighters are at a disadvantage vs good grapplers (see Hidehiko Yoshida vs Wanderlei Silva... -
UFC 64: Post Fight Discussion
One more UFC poster boy taken down by a fighter who cut his teeth in a better organization. Dana needs to start paying better money for his fighters or pride is going to make it real obvious even to lay people where the talent is. -
Pride USA - the Return of Fedor
I don't even think Vitor tries that hard anymore. He's kind of a one trick pony too. Vitor will probably gas out before the end of the fight as well. Hendo WILL try to stand and bang with him for a while, then take him to the ground if things aren't going his way. There's a good chance Hendo... -
Would you guys still fight even after an eye injury?
I got stabbed in the eye with a wooden kendo sword. It was scary as hell. I've been shy about sparring people with the swords since. I almost pierced the eyeball and I had to get taken to the emergy room. It was pretty gnarly. I don't think you'll be able to enjoy MMA if you're worried... -
How does one start training for MMA?
I think you need to figure out how you like to fight, where you are naturally most comfortable, and make that your primary area of study. Get REALLY good at that. Beyond that I think there are certain things every fighter needs to know to succeed in MMA, for instance: Basic boxing defense...
