Mir v Barnett is an epic fight for us hardcore fans! I
have to admit I'm not as excited for the Hendo/Pettis match as i was to see Pettis v Aldo but it'll do. Hate it for T.J. but his shot will come eventually.
If Henderson and Pettis rematch 3 months or 6 months, hell even a year after that incrdible first fight they had sure it's a BIG fight, but now it's just another fight that Hendo may or may not win imo. He has more to lose at this point and that usually is a recipe for either a spectacular;lar win or loss!

Funny thing about Corso mentioning that short guy from NY is that Serra is one of Weidmans coaches! And alot of ppl seem to think it'll be a simnilar scenario to that of GSP/Serra where GSP lost came back and dominated. I am not of that opinion but we shall see cause it's NOW OFFICIAL!!!!!:
Weidman vs. Silva rematch heads UFC 168 on Dec. 28, Rousey vs. Tate II co-main

"The UFC boss today revealed on ESPN's SportsCenter that both Weidman and Silva have agreed to meet on Dec. 28 in the headlining bout of a previously announced UFC 168 event, which takes place at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena. The night's main card, including the Weidman vs. Silva rematch, airs on pay-per-view. White further confirmed that bout agreements have already been signed."

Awesome!

Weidman v. Silva 2, Dec. 28, UFC 168!

That gives Silva almost 5 months to train and re-evaluate the fight! I hope he goes into it like he did against Leben! He's 38 (right?), plenty of time to regain the championship! I'd give him 8 years, @45, that's when the GOAT should retire, after a loss we all, as fans, feel is definitive (like the Gonzaga v. CroCop fight)

45 wow, I gotta think he's seen his best days already. He will demolished weidman tho. Bones Jones would tear him apart if that ever happens..which I doubt.

Yeah, Matt Serra...good call, I liked him, tough dude...I hated Matt Hughes who seemed to always get the better of him.

45 sounds like a long shot, and I'm probably a little biased towards Silva. I'll realistically give him a couple more years though, Couture set the precedent, it can be done, and Silva, imo, is a much more rounded fighter than Couture was, he also takes a hell of a lot less damage than he did


I read a little bit about Matt Hughes' history, and no joke, the guy seems like a colossal douche! I am not a fan..

I stumbled across some excerpts from his book, Hughes could very possibly be the biggest turd to ever fight in Kmart.

How did Weidman not get the best ANderson? Anderson did the same against Forrest and was praised non stop for it. Differance is Weidman is not a pillowfisted shit wrestler like Griffin. Anderson has always had problems with wrestlers, it's just that he never faced a good combination of Great wrestler/great Subs/Great strikes (Hendo at 185 isn't as good as Hendo at 205).

If you see that fight again you will see Wiedman dominated it. Took him down landed good damaging G&P. Went for a sub while in dominate position (Because he knew he would dictate where the fight went if he didn't get it). Decided to strike in the 2nd round, he said that shot Anderson stuffed was just a fake TD to keep Anderson thinking about it. He wanted to Strike with ANderson and beat him at his own game. Anderson got Owned from start to finish. Anderson was always overrated and will lose the rematch... again.

Sorry, a little late to the party. I see the re-match going a little like the second match with Sonnen. He was semi-humbled by having Sonnen up on him throughout the fight. That 5th round sub was one of the luckiest in history. He came back the second time & took care of business. I find Anderson's tactics to be pretty annoying sometimes. Abu Dhabi, I thought was the worst up until this point. I was couldn't believe what I was seeing when he was pulling his shit. Stephan Bonner is one thing, but you don't act like that with top flight competition like Weidman. He'll come back humbled, and win decisively. Oh, and Jonny Bones would end him 1st round TKO.

Classic fight, "Iron" Mike Tyson v. Buster Douglas, going into the fight, Tyson had an impressive undefeated 37-0 streak, 33 wins by way of KO

Not sure who to reply to right now. Too many good points from Marla and Padawan.

I will say this, Pettis is NOT going to beat Henderson.
Sonnen, in all due respect pretty much beat Anderson in his prime. I know that's not official, but I watched it, and that White boy destroyed Anderson. Even with striking, Sonnen backed him up.

Weidman just went a step further and knocked him the fuck out. LOVED IT. Even before Weidman knocked him out, he went to the ground with "the Spider" and turned him upside down with ease.

And to YOU PADAWAN! Cain and Jones will happen! I can't fucking wait! Cain is only 240, so this will be a great match up in 2014. Once Jones is done with Gus (or should I say if). I say this with confidence because Junior has talked quite the shit lately, and a pissed off Cain is not good news for JDS.

woot woot!

cain has a glass jaw.... everyone knows this cain and his camp have admitted it on interviews basicly... he is always one punch away from going nite nite... and yet he don't possess the power to stop k.o. dos santos.... that's a huge advantage for jds

cain is all cardeo and wrestling... with avg. to slightly above avg standup.... he is a beter kick boxer then pure western style boxer.. he he has below avg power for a h.w. im sick of people saying he is well rounded.. ive never seen him submit anyone or display sick submission defense... jds only flaw was his cardeo... I think he fixed that by tuning his training... cain has nothing for jds boxing except take down attempt after takedown attempt.. which is gay has fuck.. cigano would smash cain in a k1 type kick boxing match 10 outta 10 times... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vhng5eMYkg

I'm sorry, but are you arguing for or against Cain? LMAO. Those sound like good traits to possess. And as far as kickboxing, this is an MMA match, so if JDS does not choose to "kickbox" his way to a win, then that's his problem to deal with.

But let's be real, if you want to talk about cardio. FROM THE GET-GO in the first round of the second fight Cain stuffed, juked and jived with no problem. He won the first second, third, etc...nothing to do with JDS's cardio. If JDS was as bad ass as you talk, the first two rounds would have went his way...

good luck if you are betting money, you will need it. The second fight Cain was proving a point, but this third fight will be made to shut JDS's smack talk down.
