BJ Penn’s Hardcore Diet
i know on paper this fight card sucked but is anyone really that disappointed with this ufc? i mean, the last one we couldnt get any finishes and this one was all about finishing and bad cuts. there were some really crazy ko's that came out of nowhere.
when is the ufc going to give my man marcus davis a top contender to fight? the guy is on a 11 fight win streak….i mean damn, what does he have to do to get some respect.
Scot, very admirable to keep your word. But in all honesty, why torture yourself by not posting? CageToday comments is so that we can all post our own opinions and say what we want others to hear. In a match up, there will always be people supporting one dude, and other supporting the other dude; it's our opinions on why we think who will win or who we're supporting that makes this so interesting.
bj was sporting the chuck lidell belly in this fight. chuck's belly seems to be the current fad. rampage now also has one… as evidenced by that video put out yesterday.
I think BJ was in great shape…I didn't see the Chuck belly. But yeah, Ramp has gotten soft and he looked chubby as hell is that last video. I don't blame him, he's not fighting till who knows when. Might as well live it up.
Gonzaga looked like the fighter he was before the CroCop KO. He gassed and was able to be picked apart by Wierdum. He was my disappointment of the night.
My upset of the night was Santiago because I saw the weigh ins and he was ripped and in shape. Kendall took him lightly, thought he could take some hits while he stood up. then got KTFO. That the the KO of the night for me.
Laudin is no chump, he showed the savate fighting style and was quick and powerful with his kicks. Marcus Davis is ready to make that jump to a top contender in the welterweight division. Someone talked about Davis vs. Perisian….hell yeah, that would be a good fight. WTF does Davis have to do to get some notice. 10, or 11 fight win streak, shit, when does he get some respect.
No offense derek…but shut up, we made a deal and he has to honor it, which he is. He wilable to post when he comes back and we'll get his opinions again but for now just let him read this stuff hahahah sorry scot
bj looked great he didnt have a belly at all…
thanks scott, see ya in a week maybe next bet it will go your way.well it turned out to be a pretty good event alot of knock outs, i was glad to see jorge win and disappointed in gonzaga maybe andre deserves more credit for beating verdum.
i think arlovski was very smart how he beat werdum i always thought that. he's had a bit of a rough streak but who was the last person to beat him besides sylvia huh? he's still pretty dominate and deserves a lot of respect. i hope big nog wins and we get to see arlovski vs nog i think it would be great
