UFC 98 is finally here, and we are going to get to see the dream match-up between the guy who everyone loves to hate (Rashad Evans) and a Karate master who people want to see get more exciting. Nobody has been able to hit Machida, so it’d be interesting to see whether Rashad can hit [...]
Liddell vs. Rua is going to be the point of no return for both fighters. Liddell has lost 3 out his last 4 fights. And Rua couldn’t even put away Coleman until the veteran was too tired to stand up. The loser of this fight will probably have to settle for tomato cans in the [...]
I am not sure what to think of this upcoming fight. I do believe that Jackson deserved to get a title shot as he was the holder and defended it more than once. But he had to go through Silva and has to beat Jardine to get a shot at Rashad. Having said that, Jackson [...]
UFC 95 is going to be one great card. Sure. I would rather see Sanchez vs. Penn but Stevenson is a good fighter and should put up a good fight. Damien Maia’s fights are all a pleasure to watch, and this next one shouldn’t be any different. Here is the preview of this event. It’s [...]
The UFC hype machine is in action again, trying to hype up the highly anticipated Penn – GSP fight even more. BJ is talking a lot of crap before this fight, but I hope he can actually back it up and lose in a respectable fashion. I think GSP will probably knock him out but [...]
Affliction 2 is finally upon us, and we are going to see some very good fights. I really don’t mind seeing Affliction succeed, but the product has a long way to go to get to the level of the UFC. My pick? Fedor. I haven’t seen anything from Arlovski that Fedor can’t nullify. They said [...]
So we finally are here: UFC 89, Leben vs. Bisping is tonight on SpikeTV (if you are in the U.S.). It’s going to be a good night. The fight I am looking forward to is Jardine Vera. But I think Leben will probably pull it off against Bisping. Vera should be able to survive Jardine, [...]
Finally, this piece of video that aired during Fight Night is up. I like the teaser as it makes the fight seem like a very big deal. And I like the marketing aspect of it as well: Heavyweight Champ vs. NCAA heavyweight champ. It’d be very interesting. By the way, you may still be able [...]
UFC 88 is almost upon us in a year that has been very exciting for the MMA fans to say the least. But with Affliction II, Jackson, Anderson, and Brock returning later this year, there is plenty of life left in this year as far as Mixed Martial Arts is concerned. UFC 88 previews are [...]
The first promo for UFC 88 is up as Liddell will be facing Evans for possibly the right to face Forrest Griffin. I personally think Machida should get the first shot but I doubt Griffin can actually defend the title. He got extremely lucky with Jackson, and it’d be tough for him to hang with [...]
It’s finally up. I don’t think these guys are doing a good job hyping the fight but it’s good to hear that they believe it’s a dangerous fight for Lesnar. I think this is really the last chance saloon for Brock. If Brock loses, he is pretty much done in UFC. Probably a 1st knockout [...]
UFC 87 is coming up and we have a bunch of good fights on our hands. There are basically three cards that I am looking forward.
GSP vs. Fitch: Fitch is good but GPS is better. It’s as simple as that. Fitch can definitely cause an upset if GSP underestimates him, but somehow I don’t think [...]
A summary of the video that was played last night on Spike TV about the fight night card. James Irvin seems to believe that he has a legitimate chance to upset Anderson Silva. Unless he throws a lucky punch or Anderson is not on his A-game, this fight should end with a win for Silva. [...]
If anyone knows about fighting Anderson Silva, it’s Rich Franklin. Having lost twice to Anderson, Franklin knows that Irvin is a heavy underdog against Anderson Silva. Can Irvin surprise Silva? He might. But this is Anderson’s fight to lose. If he fights the best he can, I don’t think Irvin has much of a chance.
UFC 98 is finally here, and we are going to get to see the dream match-up between the guy who everyone loves to hate (Rashad Evans) and a Karate master who people want to see get more exciting. Nobody has been able to hit Machida, so it’d be interesting to see whether Rashad can hit him. We all know Rashad is elusive as well, but not as elusive as Machida. Griffin was hitting Evans in the first two rounds before losing, so can Rashad take a shot from Machida?
I do think Rashad has a chance but he should not be a favorite in this fight. Rashad has beaten guys who stand and want to bang. Machida is a true Samurai, and I can’t pick against him. Win or lose, it’ll be an interesting fight.
