Meathead is actually a pretty good fighter. Not to say he can compete in the UFC yet but, he was better then most on TUF this season. I think he just messed with people acting the way he did. I hated Mcsweeny and was glad Roy blasted him.
Also, Didn't Roy Nelson tap out Frank Mir twice in grappling matches. I think you can find the videos on youtube

I was so pissed when i heard the announcements for the semi's!! I wanted to root against McSweeney and Nelson. The two cockiest dudes in the house, and wanted Schaub vs. Big Baby in the finals!
Big baby made a huge mistake when he got mount and didn't flatten Schaub out and get a good base before he postured up, which allowed Schaub to just roll out of it.
Big baby's chin is definitely suspect, but his jits is solid, i think he'll waste Meathead. after that...who knows what'll happen with him.

I'm not surprised in the least. It's all about the ratings for the finale on Saturday.CharlieHog wrote: I'm surprised Mitrione is getting another UFC fight.
Marcus Jones was a fan favorite for many over the course of the season and the confrontation with Mitrione on last night's show was not only one of the bigger plotlines of the episode (aside from the actual fights), but will also still be fresh on everyone's minds. This equals viewers.

Edgar wins
Big Baby wins

I like Kimbo I really do. Dude is pretty humble and is just riding the train he was put on and I don't blame him. He just doesn't possess the skills to win at that level.

Did any news come out on Lesnar in the last couple of weeks? Like what he officially has and how long he will be out?

Last I seen it is still unclear. He is recovering from surgery and they are still sending him to the Mayo Clinic for further tests.Soda Popinski wrote: Did any news come out on Lesnar in the last couple of weeks? Like what he officially has and how long he will be out?

Hard to root against hamil. But Jones has a ton of potential and could be a player for years to come.
As for marcus. He should have stated in side control. Soon as he went for full mount I knew he would get swept. I don't like full mount. Most fighters get to high and get swept just like marcus

Marcus made a huge mistake in the mount, and it cost him the fight.

I forget the actual name, but Brock had a bacterial infection of his intestinal tract. It was causing crap (literally) to leak into his stomach. This was causing him great pain, and lead to some abscesses as well. He had surgery to repair the holes, and the last I heard was still going to visit the Mayo Clinic to determine how this will affect the future of his fighting career.Soda Popinski wrote: Did any news come out on Lesnar in the last couple of weeks?

Rampage is coming back to finish his contract. I hope he decides to stay longer but as long he fights Rashad I am fine with that.

The Rampage vs Rashad better happen soon, maybe even scrap his fight with Thiago Silva in Jan...depending on when Rampage is coming back.
If Rampage is still 2+ months out of coming back, then let Rashad fight Thiago and let Rampage vs Rashad be in abuot 3-4 months.

I just looked, and am kind of peeved...
With next Saturday's Penn/Sanchez fight, after that there isn't another title fight in any weight class until March!
That's 3 PPV shows, 1 in Jan, 2 in Feb, with no title fights.
I know Brock is sick and Anderson is recovering from elbow surgery, but what about Machida?
Having 2 of 5 title holders out of commision kind of sucks.
I bet if they find out Brock will be out for a long time that the Nogeira/Cain fight in Feb will be for an "interim" title.

I think Machida was medically uncleared for 60 or 90 days so that is probably why he isn't fighting for a bit plus I think they already signed Shogun - Machida II for May.

I've head that too, but I heard that Machida has signed to fight Shogun, but Shogun hasn't signed the fight contract yet.bigdaddy2003 wrote: I think Machida was medically uncleared for 60 or 90 days so that is probably why he isn't fighting for a bit plus I think they already signed Shogun - Machida II for May.
That was a week or so ago, so maybe he has signed since.

I was told by a very reliable source Rampage will prob never fight again in the UFC and if he does it won't be for a long time!!

It must not be very reliable because he even said he was coming back on his Myspace and website.
