    How did Mir look in his last fight with Roy Nelson? I didn't get to check that one out. I thought Big Nog looked pretty solid against Schaub though.

    Jones knows Machida has Seagal in his corner, Jones is afraid, very afraid :D

    He was comfortable if i remember correctly, just couldnt put him away.

    In that case that should be pretty entertaining. When they're on form both of them still have alot to offer.

    Is this on ESPN tonight lads?

    Ya Mir looked great against Nelson but Big Country's steel chin kept him going...barely. Big Nog has some momentum after his last win so he will def be hungry tonight. Mir Lesnar 3 would be good but really need to see How Lesnar has recovered fighting the Reem. No interest watching Overeem after his last shambles of a fight.

    Yeah 2a.m.

    I don't recall at any point complaining about grappling being boring....

    I'm not dragging the tread off topic again but I wasn't talking directly to you in my post. I was talking about some people in general. :)


    Anyway back on topic.....can't wait for tonights fights!
    I can't see Machida beating Jones but I wouldn't count him out altogether.

    Here's the link for the prelims in case anybody needs it http://www.facebook.com/#!/UFC?sk=app_247211121995467

    Yeah they should be.
    Prelims starting now on Facebook.


    EDIT: I just checked UFC.com and there's no mention of it so I dunno if they'll be shown or not.

    Jake Hecht up now against Attonito.
    Interesting to see how Jake gets on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,438 ✭✭✭✭El Guapo!


    Excellent win for Hecht. Delighted for him!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,335 ✭✭✭sonic85


    great finish - vicious elbows


  • Registered Users Posts: 545 ✭✭✭CageWager


    Wow, Hecht's a beast

    Wowza - he busted his head! Congrats to Jake and Co.


  • Registered Users Posts: 545 ✭✭✭CageWager


    Bocek up next.. always a contender for a sub of the night..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,426 ✭✭✭Roar


    What finish by Hecht. Big crowd of us out for it, it was like we won the world cup when he finished him, magic stuff. Well done Jake!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 624 ✭✭✭gudede


    Alright Lads.... Went for Ortiz tonight at 9/4, just seems to be over priced, I haven't been impressed by Little Nog, he is suffering like the rest of the pride/japan fighters have. What I mean by that is alot of the fighter seems so find it hard to get used to the different rules and the bigger stage.

    I would love to see Machida beat Jones because I think Jones is after two big for his boots but I think he'll run through Machida like Shogun done and the reach will not suit Machida's style in my opinion. I do think Jones mite find it hard to take down Machida though.

    Also like Frank Mir but not at the price :pac:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,438 ✭✭✭✭El Guapo!


    Are Kenny Florian and Jon Anik doing commentary for another broadcast or something?
    I just seen them both beside the cage and they look to be commentating.

    I was going to say ESPN Live but Anik left that so maybe its a show for Fox. Anik is UFC face for fox now

    Yeah that makes sense alright.
    I'd like to listen to that commentary instead for a change. Florian is an excellent analyst and is really good in the commentary box.

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 11,139 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr. Manager


    Massive upset there. Ref should have called it about 3-4 punches earlier too. He was clearly asleep for at least the last 3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,269 ✭✭✭Tubbs4


    That was quick and now have to wait to see the zombie.
    hopefuly the other fighters head won,t swell up like the last time.

    I thought he looked great, more than capable of holding his own in the UFC. We'll be seeing a bit more of him I'd say.
