MMA Discussion 03-31-2011

Quick rundown.
TUF, Fitch, Silva, and Sonnen!

TUF wasn't what I expected. I wanted these guys to fight to get into the house but I had to evaluate them by watching them. I've heard of 3 guys on the show and 1 was Myles Jury. I said to Alla "This guys going to win the show." Then he ends up tearing his knee. Good Times.
One guy who I've heard of was Charlie Radar (who happened to be Brock's 1st pick.) I've seen him before so that was a smart pick. I told Brad I'll look over some game tape (which I'll do tonight or the weekend) on these guys. I'm usually good @ picking a winner or two guys that are in the Finale, but this year looks pretty tough.

UFC 132
Jon Fitch is out of his rematch with BJ Penn due to an undisclosed injury. There is no replacement yet but I'll keep you updated. I'd actually like to see Anthony Johnson or Carlos Condit against Penn but I don't think that will be happening. Let's see what they do.

Horse Urine?
Thiago Silva pissed Non Human Urine? Actually he admitted to cheating for the fighting and is probably going to get the year suspension. Though he gave the NSAC "Altered Urine." Meaning that it was probably animal urine.......though this wasn't the first time it's happened. Kevin Randleman a few years ago before fighting Shogun had an extremely bad staph infection. Though after that cleared up he got a kidney infection. His doctor wouldn't clear him to fight but he didn't care anyway. He fought Shogun and lost, then submitted a sample of Urine to the NSAC. Turns out it was horse urine. He wasn't on the roids though....just he knew he wouldn't get cleared to fight because of all his internal infections.

Chael Sonnen vs Bisping? It's possible.
Recently they've been trash talking on eachother through twitter and the internet, and I'm hoping that they are the next coaches for TUF. Would be pretty epic.
Right now Chael is training with the Ceasar Gracie camp preparing Shields for GSP. If this guy isn't on the juice then something is wrong with my workout routine. He's on the left

WTF is this Sh*t.....Volume 1.




The night of the Jones / Shogun fight, I kept hearing Matt & Rebekah sing some song containing the word "Friday."

I decided to check it out.



I want 3:48 of my life back.
What's even crazier is that this video has over 66 million views.
I feel like I'm watching an educational video for the days of the week.

Let me break this down for you.
First she wakes up, goes down stairs and wants to eat cereal.


Song is beginning to suck.
Then the broad is @ the bus stop waiting for the bus but then sees a bunch of teenagers without their seat-belts on. Safe, I would definitely want my daughter to catch a ride with them. I rather her ride with a bunch of gangsters as long as they had their seat-belts on.



Also she can't figure out which seat she's going to take? Look there is no "gay" seat on this ride. Just get in the car, we're going to be late. Also this kid looks like Brian Bowles.




Then the chorus hits...."It's Friday, Friday, Gotta get down on Friday. Everybody's looking forward to the weekend." I'm starting to get red ass.

Back to driving @ night...without Seat-Belts!!!!!!!!!!!

Next thing you know these kids are @ a party on a friday...friday.
I wonder what teenagers parties are like nowadays?
If it involves listening to crappy music and playing a wild game of uno, then I'm ok with it.

More crappy lyrics.
"Yesterday was thursday thursday, today its friday friday, we we we so excited.
Tomorrow is saturday and sunday comes afterwards."

Then some random black dude comes out of nowhere.
He's like the Ludacris of cameos.....I'll just call him Rick Diculous
"Fun Fun Fun"

BTW, her label was getting paid $1 every thousand views on youtube. So Basically she made them $66,000.00. Not to mention her song is becoming a hit on Itunes. This broad is going to be a millionaire before the age of 15.

How Effin Stupid are you? Issue #5

Every week I’m wondering where these are gonna come from and if there’s gonna be enough. But magically, they appear.

1) Credit App Mishap

I knew this was gonna be good when their first reference was a company called “All Erection.” The second page of the application had a couple of good blunders, including misspelling of a simple word like does and a sentence that doesn’t make any sense.

2) Loosing, duh

I got an email from some guy who is claiming to sell the next big thing in pipe supports. It’s some sort of earthquake proof clamp. My boss wants to know what it’s about so I check out his website. He has this amazing page with proof of why his clamp is the jaun, except he spells “loser” wrong every time. Also, our PhD Engineer laughed at his methods of testing. Check out his page. http://nuclamp.com/Test.html

3) Special Auction

I got this email for a public auction for steel fabrication machines. Only, the subject didn’t say public.

MMA Discussion 03-28-2011

So my late Saturday night was pretty interesting......I'll make a post about it eventually.

UFC Fight Night 24.

Phil Davis vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
What I said - Davis by Decision
What Happened - It Happened.

Diet Nog can't resist getting taken down. Like his bigger twin brother.....I think its time to start thinking about either changing your game, or pack your bags. 2 fights in a row he's been beaten by a wrestler. Which means "it's time to bring in a wrestling specialist and start defending those takedowns." Standing he has the advantage.....but guys with a great wrestling pedigree are going to have the advantage on the ground....especially guys like Davis who are also skilled in BJJ. Though I do give Diet Nog credit...he was training for Tito Ortiz who's been washed up for the last 3 years, so he probably was taking this fight very lightly.

Next up for Davis - Franklin, Forrest, or the loser of Machida / Couture.
Next up for Nog - Wrestling Practice, Franklin

Hardy vs Johnson
What I said - Dan Hardy by Decision.
What Happened - Johnson by Decision

Good job Johnson. You made weight.....you didn't gas, and you used your wrestling to take out Hardy. Yes it was an unusual fight for you, but you almost stopped Hardy with a head kick. I was shocked to see how he fought.....he was smart (which some people don't like) but he got the win and it was pretty much an ass beating. I thought after the match that Dan Hardy would be cut from the promotion but Dana White loves him and is keeping him around (I suppose for the UK cards.)

Next up for Johnson - Carlos Condit
Next up for Hardy - Wrestling and BJJ lessons.

Leonard Garcia vs. Chan Sung Jung
What did I say - Korean Zombie by Decision
What Happened - Korean Zombie by Submission / Twister

When Bill texted me that "Zombie got the twister" it brought a few tears to my eye considering I was listening to a bohemian hippie (non russian guy) debate about the cheese and tomatoes not being organic @ Lisa's house warming. I needed to find a tv right away, which I did, and watched tv for the rest of the night. I at least got to see the highlight and then another replay of fight night @ 12.

Zombie basically didn't fall into Garcia's trap of slugging it out and used his wrestling, kickboxing and submission skills to win this match. People know how good he was standing though never really witnessed his ground skills. The kids good, but needs to bulk up a little bit more. Part of me thinks he could probably cut to 135. Still, when you're the first man to hit the "twister" in the UFC (not MMA, it's been done before) you should also get your opponents pay.

Next for Jung - Zhang or Grispi
Next for Garcia - A New Game Plan....you can't just throw 500 punches in 3 rounds, connect with 14 of them, and win a match.

Other fights

Amir Sadollah vs. DaMarques Johnson
What I said - Amir Sadollah by Decision
What Happened - Amir Sadollah by Submission Due to Strikes

Aaron Simpson vs. Mario Miranda
What I said - Simpson by Decision
What Happened - It Happened

Alex Caceres vs. Mackens Semerzier
What I said - Semerzier by Submission
What Happened - It Happened

Sean McCorkle vs. Christian Morecraft
What I said - - McCorkle by TKO
What Happened - Morecraft by Submission - Standing Guillotine.

5-2 for the week (winners.)

Next up (April 9th)
Diaz vs Daley

MMA Discussion 03-25-2011


It's time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't know how we can follow up the ufc that just passed.....but a Fight Night on free tv can't hurt.




Phil Davis vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
Ever since the Jason Brilz vs Little Nog fight, I haven't been sold on Nog.
He couldn't stop his wrestling and nearly got choked out by basically a no name guy.
Then he fought Ryan Bader....and ended up losing a decision to someone who was a better wrestler.

Phil "Mr. Wonderful" Davis is basically on the same type of roll Jon Jones has been. Difference is that Jones has beaten better opponents. This is Phil Davis's time to show everyone that he is the new kid on the block.

Why Diet Nog will win.
Experience, Striking, BJJ
I can't say that a guy with over 20 fights doesn't have experience. Also he got the bronze medal for Boxing in the Pan Ams a few years back. He is a multiple time BJJ champion and very crafty off of his back.

Why Mr. Wonderful will win.
Wrestling, magical submission shorts, cardio, & Nickname.
The guys a beast when it comes to wrestling. His cardio is off the charts, and he makes up his own moves. Also his nickname is Mr. Wonderful. Can't beat that.

Why Diet Nog won't win.
Sometimes Nog likes to stand and bang....and he once was KO'd by Sokoudjou in 23 seconds.
Yes....Sokoudjou. Also he needs to work on his wrestling defense.

Why Mr. Wonderful won't win.
He might get caught in a submission. I sometimes see a few mistakes that he does but he's such an athletic freak that he just powers out of stuff. I know he hasn't faced anyone with a BJJ pedigree like Diet Nog, so this will be a good test. Plus for months he was training for Matt Hamill, so the sudden change in opponents is a step up.

Who Wins?
Tough but I'm going to say Phil Davis. Those fights Nog had with Brilz, Soko, and Bader are just
lingering in my mind....and Phil Davis is 100 times better than all of them.

I'm going with Phil Davis by Decision. Then you will hear everyone talk about the comparisons between Davis and Jones. Just not yet. Davis would have to improve his striking in 20 times normal gravity to get where Jones is at today.





Dan Hardy vs. Anthony Johnson - Dan Hardy by Decision.
I'm a big Anthony Johnson fan. I want him to get the TKO, but the other part of me thinks that he wont make weight for this. Plus he's coming off of a year and a half lay off and knee surgery. Also he was 230 pounds 12 weeks ago. And he was 203 8 weeks ago. He cuts a tremndous amount of weight and I don't know if his cardio will be there.
Above is Johnson, Maia, and Jones. Johnson is even bigger than Jones....and when is not cutting weight....is about 10 pounds heavier than Jones on a normal day. Crazy how he can cut 60 pounds in 3 months.

Dan Hardy has gone plenty of 3 rounders as well as a 5 rounder with GSP. He's a pretty good fighter and will probably be a little more cautious when facing his opponents since his KTFO moment a few months ago. But I don't think it'll happen again. I can see him keeping the distance and clinching with Johnson and trying to wear him out, while getting some good shots in.
Johnson will be tired by round 3 and Hardy will pick his shots.

Still if Johnson gets the 2nd round tko....don't be surprised.


Other fights
Amir Sadollah vs. DaMarques Johnson - Amir Sadollah by Decision
Amir never fights but when he does he always seems to go to decision.
Why are you employed by the UFC again?

Aaron Simpson vs. Mario Miranda - Simpson by Decision
Who?

Leonard Garcia vs. Chan Sung Jung - Korean Zombie by Decision
Just like the first one with Chan Sung Jung with the upset Decision.
Unless Cecil Peoples is your judge for the evening.

Fights they might show.
Alex Caceres vs. Mackens Semerzier - Semerzier by Submission
"Bruce Leeroy vs The Best 5-3 fighter you'd ever see."
Should be a great fight with both fighters going back and forth until Bruce Leeroy makes a crucial mistake.

Sean McCorkle vs. Christian Morecraft - McCorkle by TKO
Both like to slug it out. Both lost to Struve. Morecraft has been KTFO.

How to Envoke Rage - Movies, MMA, Etc

Today I was on Facebook and saw something that really made my jaw drop

Brings a tear to my eye.
For those who don't get it, it's "right leg hospital, left leg cemetery."
But then I noticed more pictures online that had similar tones to it.
Mistakes are everywhere.



FRIDAY MEME

CIGAR MAN
this all originated with this picture that some camera guy took while tiger was hitting his ball directly at his camera.  people started noticing this dude on the side that is basically hilarious looking.
