shogun is a monster….. best 205er out there
Tomorrow he’s going to have to prove he can do it in the UFC. That is by far the fight I am most looking forward to. Not that there aren’t other fights I am dying to see but it’s so important and has massive implications.
I am looking forward to the Rua vs. Griffin match the most, too Kris. I believe Forrest Griffin will pull off the upset. I think it will be the second biggest upset of the year. The first is off course; Serra beating GSP. I hope Fitch having to try so hard to lose the extra weight doesn’t affect him too much.
Shogun IS my hero!
I would like to see Griffin take it and I think he will. It should be the fight of the night. I lucked out and got tickets.
I am drunk, forgive me all. F*** CHUCK.. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I really don’t think he is the GOD everyone has made him out to be. He was a kickboxing GOD. Mainly for his hands in MMA. I have ultimate respect for CHUCK, but…. He hasn’t the staying power of a say…… “Shogun”,…… “Natural”…… say ahhhhh, ……”Iceman”….. and anybody who knows me knows,
I am an “ICEMAN” fan……but…..
It’s the new age man, the best of the best, against the best of the best. GOD BLESS MMA. GOD BLESS THE UFC, AND GOD BLESS OUR SPORT, OUR FAVORITE SPORT, football has started, but still, I love it….. BUT…… GOD BLESS THE UFC AND WHAT THEY HAVE DONE FOR THE MMA WORLD……F*** THE NEGATIVE, LOOK AT THE POSITIVE, I LOVE THIS SPORT, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS.
Sorry about that last comment… I realy like “Shogun” in this fight. I can not wait to see what he does in the UFC. ….. . I will take Shogun, and I will take Jardine…. . I hope Jardine KO’s Chuck. He is as one sided in the sport as Cro-Cop if not more.
i agree chuck is old news time to embrace the NEW UNDISPUTED UFC LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! QUINTIN RAMPAGE JACKSON!!!!!!!!!
diego v. fitch is the fight of the evening
I am not counting out Tavares-Griffin for FoTN either.
This is such a great card. I am counting the minutes until this PPV starts. I know that some people aren’t too happy about the main event being a non-title fight and with Liddell not fighting a bigger name, but the main event should be a banger; it’ll end with a highlight reel knockout with Liddell winning. I am very excited about the Tavares/Griffin fight, too Kris. I want Taveres to win; hopefully he does.
