Comments on: Couture Declines Nogueira Fight Due To Elbow Surgey http://mmafrenzy.com/8840/couture-declines-nogueira-fight-due-to-elbow-surgey/ UFC and MMA News Sun, 22 Nov 2009 10:10:37 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5.2 hourly 1 By: James http://mmafrenzy.com/8840/couture-declines-nogueira-fight-due-to-elbow-surgey/#comment-82454 James Mon, 12 Jan 2009 03:57:15 +0000 http://mmafrenzy.com/?p=8840#comment-82454 Affliction will fold by the time Randy is out of his UFC contract, so Randy will have to go to Russia or most likely Japan to fight Fedor. Fedor is scared to fight in the cage because it limits his speed and in a confined area he is not the same fighter. Remember Affliction Banned used the biggest ring ever used for a MMA event ever. By the way, has anyone seen Tim Silvia? Took the money and ran. Maybe he could buy a backbone and a mean-streak with what Affliction paid him.

The only advantage that randy gains is in his clench game and dirty boxing. But that almost always leads to the ground, where he would be sub'd. We all know the heavy hitters can ko randy. Fedor = heavy hitter. Fedor is better off his back, he is the better striker, and has better jits. They are both great at GNP but we all know fedor is the best there bar none. In the cage or in the ring, it doesn't matter much. For anyone to say randy wins 4 outa 5 anywhere is crazy. What makes you think randy can win so many in the cage.

It will give fans a true read on Kongo, but better yet if Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira has anything left in the tank or if the UFC should just release him now.

M-1 wants to co-promote event. Dana will not let that happen. So Randy cannot fight Fedor in the UFC. Odds are, Randy will fight his UFC contract then go back to announcing and promoting with his wife. Fedor will not fight in the UFC. M-1 wants to co-promote event. Dana will not let that happen.

To much GNP gets him sub'd, he isn't going to ko him. In a ring the ropes won't favor randys clinch game. So cut it is. Randy loses this fight 4 out of 5 in a ring. In a cage randy loses 3 out of 5.

They haven't shown me yet that they'll be around then. Then, even if they are will they be able to afford $2-$3 mil? I don't see that happening.

Then fight Big Nog. He needs to win out his UFC contract, then go to Affliction: Once And For ALL (good name for the card) and meet Fedor. Randy won't win, but he could get his biggest payday ever($2-$3 million). Randy definitely needs to fight a named fighter, such as Mark Coleman, Heath Herring, or Chiek Kongo on his next bout.
