    How come Brock is 6'3, Ubereem is 6'5 yet at the end they both look the same height?

    Ubereem's gotta stop slouching.

    Cause theyre superimposed over the arena to be the same height? :/
    You can see in the proper faceoff overeem is taller

    It would seem that Dana has no idea Joe Rogan has a poscast also! Because if he's ever heard it, how is Rogan still in the job and Torres not?

    Poor Wand :eek:

    I wonder will TUF Brazil be broadcast in the UK/Ireland in subtitles or what?

    I'd say so. Considering TUF is generally used as a breeding ground for fighters, they will want such fighters to have as much exposure as possible.

    Ed Soares will be in for some serious overtime! :pac:

    With the mean mugging and gangsta walking it doesn't look like he's being trained to be much of a sportsman, great talent though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 944 ✭✭✭loremolis


    I'd kick his ass. Put me in the UFC.

    I saw this posted on the pro wrestling forum, its apparently sourced from the pro wrestling observer but there's no link (subscription website), but if you google around you can see they are fairly accurate but still take what you want from it
    ESTIMATED NORTH AMERICAN BUYS
    1,410,000 - Manny Pacquiao vs. Juan Manuel Marquez
    1,250,000 - Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Victor Ortiz
    1,100,000 - Manny Pacquiao vs. Shane Mosley
    800,000 - UFC 129 (St. Pierre vs. Shields)
    785,000 - UFC 124 (St. Pierre vs. Koscheck)
    725,000 - UFC 126 (Anderson Silva vs. Belfort)
    679,000 - WWE WrestleMania (Cena vs. Miz/Rock ref)
    600,000 - Miguel Cotto vs. Antonio Margarito
    520,000 - UFC 133 (Jon Jones vs. Jackson)
    490,000 - UFC 128 (Rua vs. Jon Jones)
    480,000 - UFC 140 (Jon Jones vs. Machida)
    335,000 - UFC 134 (Anderson Silva vs. Okami)
    330,000 - UFC 131 (Dos Santos vs. Carwin)
    325,000 - UFC 130 (Jackson vs. Hamill)
    320,000 - UFC 132 (Faber vs. Cruz)
    310,000 - UFC 133 (Ortiz vs. Evans)
    290,000 - UFC 139 (Henderson vs. Rua)
    281,000 - WWE Royal Rumble
    280,000 - UFC 137 (Penn vs. Diaz)
    260,000 - UFC 125 (Edgar vs. Maynard)
    260,000 - UFC 127 (Penn vs. Fitch)
    225,000 - UFC 136 (Edgar vs. Maynard)
    200,000 - Miguel Cotto vs. Ricardo Mayorga

    St. Pierre doing nice numbers, Jones's numbers are consistent, 490, 520, 480, you need to take into account that he was facing Machida for that 480 thoug.

    wow, had no idea WWE PPV buy-rates were so bad these days! maybe too many shows? No enough stars?

    Well a lot of the better known guys would be retiring or slowing down. Undertaker has carried the last 2/3 Mania's tbh and he's the oldest on the roster. They're failing badly at making new stars, they get young guys in position to take a main card spot then fail to pull the trigger.

    It's way too predictable atm. At one point a couple years ago I guessed the whole PPV and how it went down. That was the end of that ****e.

    I think the main point of interest with the UFC is the any given sunday variable.

    My brother is still into the WWE and I watched RAW a couple of weeks back and thought it was horrible. No characters. Seems to just be guys with massive muscles using their own names? Also, te wrestling was terrible the time I saw it.

    i went to see a local show not too long ago and it was incredible entertainment. They had the kids roaring with laughter and they had some genuinely funny moments with "WTF" moments. Seems WWE is taking itself slightly too seriously these days.

    Used to watch WWE years ago, was fun.

    Apparently now thought The Undertaker is toally fcucked, can hardly walk, how the WWE get legislation so easily in most U.S states and Zuffa has to walk through fire is beyond me.

    Watch this vid, it really is disturbing

    Used to watch as a kid and loved it. Even when I was "too old" for it (I know people my age still watch but you know what I mean) my brother was into it so I used to watch the odd time and enjoyed it. Some super characters in it. I loved the whole Rock v Stone Cold thing.

    Now it seems pretty terrible.
