Any people like UFC / MMA ? if so thenwho is your favourite current UFC fighter mine has to be Chuck Lidell (who the fuck will beat him?)
Brilliance In Supremacy
Getting Noticed By Management
Nobody has beat Chuck lately. The last person to beat him to my knowledge was Randy Couture
My favorite fighter is Rich Franklin. He's one of my role models

Even though he's retired and got owned in his last match, my favorite would have to be "The World's Most Dangerous Man" and UFC Hall Of Famer, Ken Shamrock.

This is definitely a good event for free TV this coming Thursday night on Spike. The most interesting part, is seeing Heath Herring fight again. Cant help but be reminded of when he was kissed by Yoshihiro Nakao.LOL! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_P4Yr3ArEg
I've been watching UFC since it started, so naturally I'm a big fan of MMA. My favorite fighter at the moment would have to be Chuck Liddell as he seems to be unbeatable at the moment, and now that Quinton Rampage Jackson is coming to UFC I'm looking to see if Chuck can avenge his loss as he has with the only 2 other fighters he has lost to (Randy Couture and Jeremy Horn). I'm glad to hear that Randy Couture will be making his return to the octagon as I feel he still has a few good fights left in him unlike Ken Shamrock who's better years are behind him. Also, I am looking forward to seeing both Rampage and Crocop in their debut fights as they will have some great fights ahead of them.

You're right body. It's good to see that SOMEONE shares the same opinions with me...
How about Rashad Evans kick to the face last night at UFN?!
Cant wait for the latest PPV though. A VERY solid card...
The following is an article from www.MMANEWS.com:
Big UFC 67 Change, Silva-Lutter No Longer Title Fight
Due to Travis Lutter failing to make the required 185 lb. weight limit for his scheduled title challenge against Middleweight champion Anderson Silva at UFC 67 this weekend, the fight will no longer be for the belt.
Lutter, who originally weighed in at 187 pounds had two hours to lose two pounds. Normally you're given a pound over, but in sanctioned title fights that is not the case. Irrelevant however, as Lutter came in two hours later having only lost a half a pound, tipping the scales at 186.5, a pound-and-a-half over the limit.
Silva agreed to take the fight regardless, but due to Nevada State Athletic Commission regulations, the bout will no longer be for the UFC Middleweight championship.
In other news, Terry Martin eventually did come in at 186 lbs., which means his fight with Jorge Rivera is still on. Martin originally weighed in 187, so he had to drop one pound (not two due to it being a non-title fight) in one hour.
-Anderson Silva (185 lbs.) vs. Travis Lutter (186.5 lbs.)
-Roger Huerta (156 lbs.) vs. John Halverson (155 lbs.)
-Mirko CroCop (223 lbs.) vs. Eddie Sanchez (229 lbs.)
-Quinton "Rampage" Jackson (205 lbs.) vs. Marvin Eastman (203 lbs.)
-Patrick Cote (185 lbs.) vs. Scott Smith (185 lbs.)
-"Lyoto" Ryoto Machida (203 lbs.) vs. Sam Hoger (206 lbs.)
-Tyson Griffin (156 lbs.) vs. Frank Edgar (154 lbs.)

-Dustin Hazelett (156 lbs.) vs. Diego Sarai (155 lbs.)

Welcome to our live coverage of UFC 67 from the Mandlay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.
We're looking for your thoughts on the show, so please leave a thumbs up, thumbs down or thumbs in the middle along with a best and worst match on the show to [email protected]
Dustin Hazelett b Diego Saraiva. Hazelett took all three rounds on every scorecard to win 30-27.
Lyoto Machida b Sam Hoger 30-27 across the board over three rounds. Totally dominant performance by Machida, who knocked Hoger down three times in the first round and two more times in the second. Most of the knockdowns were scored when Hoger would throw a kick and Machida would connect on a punch to the jaw.
We could have an upset here. Frankie Edgar has been outwrestling Tyson Griffin for two rounds. Edgar appeared to solidly win round one with several takedowns. Round two was a close call. Griffin was gassed in the third round, but nearly got a submission with a leglock. Edgar dominated the round and took the fight 30-27, 29-28, 29-28
Terry Martin b Jorge Rivera in 14 seconds. Rivera came out and threw a kick, but Martin caught the foot and threw him down, and stunned him with three hard punches on the ground and Rivera was done.
They announced that Lutter hadn't made weight. Lutter apologized. Joe Rogan said it was inexcusable. Anderson Silva said that he felt he disrespected the fans and disrepected the championship.
Scott Smith vs. Patrick Cote is up now.
Dull first round. People are booing. Both had brief seconds of offense. I'd give Cote the round because he scored with a bodyslam and a few punches on the ground before Smith got to his feet. For two sluggers, much of the match was dancing or in a clinch against the cage.
Cote rocked him with a hard right early in the round, but didn't follow up. Smith even did a Ric Flair beg for mercy spot and a karate kick spot. But overall a boring round. I've got it 20-18 for Cote as Smith did nothing in the round, not that Cote did much more. Lots of boos.
Best round of the three. Smith even scored with the best punch, but Cote hit more punches and I had him winning the round. I've got it 30-27. Eddie Bravo also has it 30-27.
All three judges had it 30-27. Fans booed the fight a lot. On paper, you'd have expected a more entertaining fight from these two.
Quinton Jackson vs. Marvin Eastman is up next. The place is going pretty wild for Jackson. If he scores an impressive win here he'll become an immediate superstar.
Until the end of the round, little happened. Jackson caught Eastman with a left punch to the jaw that took Eastman's knees away. The end of the round may have saved Eastman.
Second round was slow again until Jackson scored with five straight short punches inside that put Eastman down. Two more on the ground and ref John McCarthy stopped the fight. At least he scored a decisive victory but not a blow-out.
Jackson got over better on his promo than with his fighting. He said he was nervous and this was the first time he'd ever been booed. He said he needs more sparring, and advertised for needing sparring partners to get his skill level up before a match with Chuck Liddell.
Right now 77% believe Silva will beat Lutter.
Roger Huerta vs. John Halverson is next.
This is going to be controversial. Huerta knocked Halverson out with a knee to the shoulder, but some of it hit the head. Of course a knee to the head is illegal. Halverson was on his stomach and laid there. Huerta threw about 16 unanswered punches on the ground and it was over in 19 seconds.
Mirko Cro Cop vs. Eddie Sanchez is next. Will Cro Cop come out to "Wild Boys." This is even more stunning. Cro Cop came out to the Pride theme song. The fact he's doing that in some form may be a hint to what will be the biggest news story in this industry of 2007. Live it didn't appear anyone understood the significance of that.
Cro Cop dominated the entire fight. He nailed the left high kick and a few punches and Sanchez was down. After a few punches on the ground it was stopped. It wasn't a highlight reel fight. Sanchez almost survived the round through a lot of back pedaling.
Cro Cop was super over. People bought the hype.
Anderson Silva vs. Travis Lutter is up. I'm surprised they didn't air a prelim match before this since they've got well over an hour left in the show.
Lutter took him down twice. He finally got the mount. Lutter connected with punch after punch from a mount but went for a sloppy armbar and Silva got up at the end of the round. Lutter won the round 10-9, but Silva still has a better shot at winning.
Lutter took Silva right down. After an upkick, Silva went for a triangle and held it for a long time. Lutter was able to defend but not get out. Silva then, with Lutter's head trapped, threw elbow after elbow from the bottom and Lutter tapped out.

OMG, I don't care if UFC has Cro-Cop or not, I'm sticking with Pride. Seriously did anybody see Pride 33? What a ppv! Diaz submits Gomi, Henderson KO's Silva, and Sokoudjou KO'ed Nogueira. What a night for Team Quest though.
If you missed this card then same on you. Chuck Norris was there too.

Randy Couture is a freak! He's incredible! He totally dominated Sylvia!
Randy did exactly what he said he was going to do, but Tim on the other hand, of corse did not KO Couture. Tim Sylvia is a good fighter, he really is, but he just wasn't a good champ. When he comes back I think we will see the old Tim start knocking people out. The guy whos not afraid to go all out, but who knows.
Now Randy won the belt, Cro-Cop is going to kill Gonzaga, so what we have is a hell of a match. After watching Randy last night I think Cro-Cop will def. have to bring his A-game if he plans on walking out with the belt. Either way it will an incredible fight.

Time to bring this bad boy (the thread) back
How about Tim Sylvia getting his a%s handed to him by Randy Couture damn the whole fight was one sided and even within the first punch nearly put Sylvia away.

I only watch UFC at the moment, and was considering Pride, but it doesn't really appeal to me just yet.
My favorite fighters have definitely got to be :
1) Georges Saint-Pierre
2) Randy Couture
3) Tito Ortiz
4) Matt Hughes
5) Chuck Liddell
The person I probably hate the most is Tim Sylvia, I just don't see how he's any good... Seriously I don't get it.

Well dude, back in the day when he first won the belt he thought he would have it forever and had to relinquish it and he was very upset. Then when he got the belt back he never wanted to lose it again so he was very cautious, too cautious. But man Tim Sylvia can fight. I hope that when he does come back he will be the old Knock Out machine. You should check out some of his older fights.
