^^I actually think this is a very good main card for a tuf finale. even better then some PPVs this year. you cheering for ricci? he could be the first canadian to win TUF. Also the guillard/varner and poirier/brookins fights should be exciting

Both Guillard and Varner have had too many ups and downs, but they should fight like hell as this may be an elimination from UFC match. I think Ricci will win and not because he is Canadian .

When is Pat Berry going to stop eating and become a LH, he weighed in at 238 and looks like crap again, sigh.

Anderson is WAY Overrated in the MMA community. He doesn't like to challenge himself unless they are good stylistic matchups IE Forrest, Bonner, Irvin. He would get smashed if he actually steps up and fights Jones. Christ, he didn't even want to fight Weidman but he wanted to fight WW GSP and DIaz. DIAZ!!!!!!. Pathetic.

LOL! You're dreamin', bud!

Anderson Silva is the pound for pound best fighter in the world right now. He'd SMASH Jones. And that's saying something, Jones' only loss comes from DQ, and he fights 20lbs heavier!

His striking is unmatched. He's the most accurate fighter in the middleweight division (probably in the entire UFC);

He's got knockout power, as proved by his last four fights, Bonnar, Sonnen, Okami & Belfort. He's competent off the ground with submission wins over Dan Henderson and Travis Lutter, 33 out of 37 wins, 26 by finish! 14 title defenses (UFC record) had 5 of his opponents not tested positive for illegal substances. Holds the UFC record for most consecutive wins at 17!

Fuck me, Anderson Silva is EASILY the best fighter in the world. Jones? Jones WHO!?

I'd put $1,000 on Silva to beat Jones. Dana White said they will definitely face off, so we're likely to see Silva v. GSP and Silva v. Jones in 2013. GSP is going to run through Nick Diaz, then face Johny Hendricks, and likely retain his WW title, Jones is going to run though Chael Sonnen and likely retain his LHW title, so I'm thinking the Silva v. Jones fight will take place in summer and the Silva v. GSP fight will take place sometime late next year, Oct-Dec 2013. My money's on Silva for both of those fights. I predict he'll give Jones his first loss.

I'd LOVE to see Silva with the WW, MW, and LHW title at the same time! Son of a bitch that would be crazy! And a UFC first! I think GSP and Silva will fight at a catch weight, so it likely won't be a title fight, but the LHW fight against Jones might be. Silva's fought there before and fucked shit up (Griffin)!

Gsp. Will get murdered by the spider....Jones n him will be a great match..pay that ten b4 you start laying out 1k bets high roller....anyone see Hector Lombard fight? Dudes a bad man...rumored to be going to ufc to fight. Silva.

Anderson is Great but he isn't the GOAT. Anderson walks around at 220-230 and cuts weight to fight in the weakest division in MMA (MW). He picks and chooses who he fights, so he can always try and get as many advantages as he can. When Shogun KO'd Machida he called out Anderson and Anderson replied with "If Shogun wants to fight me he can come to MW and do it" while he challenged GSP and wants GSP to fight him at CW. Spider would KO GSP easily but he is also a GIANT compared to GSP so it isn't that much of a challenge. Weidman was the number one contender and Anderson DECLINED that fight while fishing for a fight for GSP/Diaz WHO ARE WW's. Anderson also said he might wanna fight Franklin.... FOR THE 3rd TIME!!! Anderson looked just as big as Forrest did when they fought each other. Anderson is king of a weak division and gets waaaay too much credit for it. Also Jones would SMASH Anderson if he ever steps up to him. LOL at anyone whoe thinks otherwise.

Jones Elite wins Vera,Shogun,Rashad,Rampage,Machida,Vitor,Bader > Anderson Elite wins Vitor, Hendo, Forrest,Rich(Maybe?) Not many ELITE wins.

Silva dropped down because he beat the piss out of everyone at 205....he had no challengers in that division.

Silva dropped down because he beat the piss out of everyone at 205....he had no challengers in that division.

how did he beat the piss out of everyone at 205?? he only moved up to fight forrest/bonnar/irvin. if he fought 3 real challengers like rashad/shogun/gus then u could say that. also AS moved up not down. AS started at 170 early in his career and wasnt a dominate fighter until he moved to the UFC were the rules benifate his style of fighting. IDK if you know this but AS was a just a average fighter in his PRIDE days.which was the top MMA org. of its time

 

[Padawanbater2]

Wat?

No real challengers?

What about Dan Henderson? Chael Sonnen, Belfort, Nate Marquartd? All of them are bigger fighters who can fight at 205. All finishes.

Every legitimate fighting organization on the planet has Anderson Silva at number 1, pound for pound. The guy hasn't lost a fight since 2004 (except for a DQ in 2005). That's, going on 9 years of total domination of the MW division.

I bet Silva could probably even take out a couple top tier HW fighters!

 

[Shea_Heights]

corso said he "beat the piss out of" every challenger at 205 which is very untrue..all fighters you listed AS fought was at 185 weight class NOT 205. I can list 10+ top tier LHW fighters AS has never fought so to say he cleaned out the LHW division makes no sense whatsoever.

 

[Marla 420]

^^^^^^
Hendo is a good win but Hendo is NOT bigger than Anderson shit it isn't even close (Although I want to see a rematch at 205 where Hendo doesn't gas as hard), Chael losses a 3rd of his fights he isn't ELITE, Vitor is a great win but again Vitor isn't bigger than Anderson(They are about the same), Nate is actually fighting at WW now (Anderson can't make WW anymore) So with that said no Anderson is bigger than Nate also.

Shea understands whats I'm talking about.

Anderson is Great but when people start claiming he can beat Jones or HW's just because he Dominates MW they are wrong. Anderson picks and chooses who he fights FROM HIS OWN DIVISON. He already stated that he doesn't wanna fight Weidman/Vitor but if Bisping beats Vitor he will fight him (Funny thing is his own camp stated they don't think Bisping will beat Vitor). If he steps up to fight all comers at 205 trust me, he wouldn't be near the P4P list. Anderson is great though and I think if he can beat Weidman and Vitor (again) there will be NO ONE at MW that can touch him. I have no problem for people who have him as P4P 1, You can put GSP/Jones/Anderson at number one and they would all be right.

None of those guys could hang with Silva, shogun n rampage would get embarrassed ....he is not ducking anyone...not sure where you came up with that.

 

[Marla 420]

^^^^^^^

Uhhhh, pretty sure I already stated that after Shogun KO'd Anderson's "Brother" He basically said he would love to fight Anderson. When Anderson was asked what he thought about fighting Shogun he said if he wants me he can cut to MW and do it. While being a big hypocrite he turns around and calls out GSP while saying fight me at Catchweight because I can't make weight at WW. Also It seems like you have alot more confidence in Anderson "Embarrassing" Shogun and Rampage then Anderson himself has. Yea Rampage, Shogun, Rashad, Machida aren't undefeated but that happens when your fighting Legit Competition every fight.

Cain vs JDS 2 will be a WAR. Hopefully it's a longer fight then the first one, I just wanna see JDS on his back and see what he can do on the ground. He is like a cat though, he gets put on the ground and he pops up real quick. If Cain can't get him on the ground nobody can. Reem vs JDS will be EPIC if JDS beats Cain again. Best Strikers in the HW division going at it toe to toe.

[Padawanbater2]

SPOILERS! Don't scroll down if you don't want the results of UFC 155!

Cain v. Dos Santos 3 should be EPIC!

I thought Lauzon was going to win, Miller is a good fighter, damn.

I'm glad Guillard lost, his showboating at the weigh ins made him look like a dummy..

Lotta decisions, glad I didn't buy the card, I'll check some results tomorrow, I know a few sources they post em up


Who's next, Aldo v. Edgar in February?

 

[Shea_Heights]

glad to see jds get exposed as the overrated fraud he is. junior is lucky he lost because overeem would of slaughtered him after his performance against cain the second fight. OVEREEM HW CHAMP 2013

 

[Shea_Heights]

also one of the best cards of 2012 was ufc 155. will be remembered as a all time classics for sure.

 

[ru4r34l]

JDS gets worked for 23 minutes, glad Cain got his belt back.

The last 4 cards have been very entertaining, hopefully this continues throughout 2013.
