Shirtless Crackhead Posted April 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) He needs to transition to MMA, he's too small for K-1 (5'11" 200lbs), but he could rape MMA's standup game with some TDD and wrestling. He's supposed to fight Strikeforce in 2011, atleast that's the rumor; with UFC's buy out he might go UFC. He does train with Alistair Overeem @ Golden Glory, I'm excited if the rumors are true.

Shirtless Crackhead Posted April 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Shields v. GSP, anybody watching? If I were betting, money is on GSP; even though I think Shields is amazing. I just see jabs mucking his game up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shirtless Crackhead Posted April 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I watched that UFC special last night, GSP is training with John Danaher for Jujitsu, and Gregg Jackson, plus his boxing looks amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YUNG MASTERLESS GLENCOUR Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 I heard the GSP vs Shields fight was unbelievably boring. That doesn't surprise me in the least, either. Fucking Shields. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirtless Crackhead Posted May 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) It was kinda boring, but it was interesting to see how Shields couldn't take GSP down, and GSP's boxing wasn't really a cut above; I think GSP spent too much time training to avoid subs and stuff with John Danaher. EDIT: Jose Aldo vs. Mark Hominick was awesome, Aldo gassed really bad but totally fucked Hominick up, Hominick wasn't quitting though; I see a rematch, but Aldo will be ready and Hominick will get wrecked. Aldo v. Hominick was definitely fight of the night, the rematch will be nutz; Aldo wasn't 100% and Hominick is just a fucking machine, I guess his nickname fits. http://i.imgur.com/kpsiA.png Alot of the other rights where exciting, Vladimir Matyushenko got a nasty 1st Round KO on Jason Brilz. Machida also KO'd Randy Couture with a Surprise Steven Seagal kick, Silva style; it was really nice Karate technique, he faked a left kick and jumped up and kicked Randy in the chin with his right foot.

YUNG MASTERLESS GLENCOUR Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Yeah dood I heard about that fight. Fuck yeah. Actually, it's funny you mention it, but everyone I've heard from said the event was awesome except for the lame as fuck main event. Pretty much what you said but without mincing words.

Shirtless Crackhead Posted May 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 GSP is going to keep working on his boxing and stuff, I think though he's getting the hint that people want to see him finish fights; his usual method for doing so, takedowns and GnP simply wasn't a good one against Shields. If GSP gets his striking up to the task of finishing fights, he'll be truly great; but right now we're probably not going to see GSP vs. Silva (GSP isn't sold on the idea himself), but we might see GSP vs. Nick Diaz.

Shirtless Crackhead Posted May 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 UFC 130 is a really weak card, but oh well, still gonna watch it. I can't say I'm really that interested in any of the fights, but Roy Nelson is always interesting to watch. The fight between Brian Stann and Jorge Santiago will probably be the most exciting fight of the night, out of the main card. What's sad is the prelims look like more exciting lineups than the main card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Densuo Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 (edited) I think GSP should improve his boxing for the sake of being a more complete fighter. but you know what? F the crowd. If he knows he's gonna take the fight without having to take an unneeded risk in finishing a fight then by all means, dont. editL Nice to see Hamill still fighting the kid's deaf he's an inspiration and is an eternal winner in my book.

Shirtless Crackhead Posted May 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Being deaf really isn't much of a disability in MMA, even though Tito Ortiz thought deaf people have shitty equilibrium, lol Tito Ortiz. GSP has really good leg kicks too, which made me sad, because he kicked Shields like twice and both times it looked like it would have chopped Shields down if he kept them up; but GSP is a point player, like Tim Sylvia was. It's boring, but w/o yellow cards for holding or maybe a stronger point advantage for aggression, it's going to stay this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The disadvantage that Hamil really has is that he cannot receive help from his corner during the rounds. True on GSP but if you wanna be the champ you gotta beat him. and if they can't beat him convincingly and he can preserve himself, hey, more money and more fights for him.

Shirtless Crackhead Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Corner help is kind of a funny thing, most guys are too into the fight and forget to pay attention unless you got a loon in your corner who can scream insanely loud, than again your opponent hears everything he says. If I was an MMA fighter I'd try to use another language or atleast codes so the dude I was fighting didn't know what my corner was telling me.

Shirtless Crackhead Posted June 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 June 11th, UFC 131 Junior Dos Santos vs. Shane Carwin <- big heavyweight fight time! (I'm picking Dos Santos) one wee later... June 18th, Strikeforce HW GP Ubereem vs. Werdum <- another big heavyweight fight (if Overeem beats Werdum he'll get huge recognition, have to fight Antonio Silva next, and the UFC will probably be looking to get him into some fights, especially if he then wins the GP; he'll be in line for a title-shot or #1 contender match-up, IMO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Densuo Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Good fight. plenty of heart in that one. I think Carwin saw his stock rise despite the loss. Velasquez v Dos Santos next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirtless Crackhead Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 I didn't see it, but I heard that it was Dos Santos putting it to Carwin in round 1, then the 2nd and 3rd rounds where Dos Santos stalling for the win.

YUNG MASTERLESS GLENCOUR Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 I heard it was onesided as shit and Carwin got dominated. Oh and about that corner thing, Raor. I don't know anyone who thinks that way. Not me, or anyone I've fought with or trained with. Everyone I've ever met who did any kind of competition fighting listened to their corners. I'm sure some assholes ignore their corner, but I don't think its all too common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirtless Crackhead Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 I would say at like PPV events and stuff, it would be almost too loud; plus if you giving one guy JiuJitsu tips, the other guy can hear it, and probably stop you from doing it; but I dunno. I still think code talking would be cool to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YUNG MASTERLESS GLENCOUR Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Especially if the codes get really bizarre like baseball ones. The coaches do some unbelievable stuff on the side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirtless Crackhead Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Also, when a dude has a guy turtling on him, instead of trying to land ineffective head strikes, which can get you carded for hitting the back of the head; just punch the dude in the ass and mess up his sciatic nerve.

Shirtless Crackhead Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Overeem vs. Werdum was one of the worst fights in a long time, Werdum should be ashamed of his performance, pulling guard every time Overeem hit him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Densuo Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) Wasn't really impressed with this weekend's mma. I also will rescind my previous comment. Carwin got whipped also, can't believe I missed the thing with Fedor getting pummled like he did in February. He's just too small to fight with some of these young giants now. Especially at his age. Perhaps he can still compete at Light Heavy. Edited June 20, 2011 by Densuo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
