pertplus1 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Didnt GSP recently say he wanted Silva? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jukka Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Yeah i'm pretty sure both him and Silva have both warmed to the idea, have mentioned the possibility recently. But who knows how it would play out, if GSP loses to condit you would think he would want to regain his title before taking a fight with Silva. Or worst case scenario, he fucks his knee up again with this fight and is out for lord who knows how long. If Dana is any sort of smart, he would line these two up at the show they want to have at cowboys stadium, throw another title fight on it and rake in the dough.

john_gacy Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Eh, GSP was good. How he'll fare now after injury and not fighting as often as before is in question. The Sonnen thing is wack, you don't lose out in one division, move divisions, and think you're going to start at the top. Dude is way overhyped, and not even by the fans.

pertplus1 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I think the fans know that he's not as good as he talks him self up to be, at least I hope so, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_gacy Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I think the typical fans are meatheads who want blood, they don't recognize skills and such in a fight. Bringing in guys like Brock Lesnar basically contributed to a circus atmosphere, and using Chael Sonnen as a heel character furthers that. I don't recall him being quite like this when he was in WEC.

Jukka Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 As far as I can tell, Sonnen was only getting the chance because other lhw's turned it down on such short notice. I agree that he's not amazing, but still top 5 in my opinion, and dude knows how to sell himself and a fight! I think Jones is dumb for not taking the fight just based on money alone! And Silva starting to talk about big money fights and all that is pretty dumb too. He's never gonna get a cut from ppv and live gate as big as the Sonnen fight again, unless he does the GSP fight.

bionic commando.. Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Bonnar is good but in a different class of fighting than Silva, he's too lax and not technical...straight brawler and def could take a beaten but he's gonna lose no question!

bionic commando.. Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Jones and Belfort is a good match, the co main on that card should be good also, Benavidez vs Johnson (mighty mouse)... << that dudes fast as a mofo! EDIT: and Hamill is always fun to watch I've always liked him. *also Hamil is Jones only loss in his professional career, crazy.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

substanceOVERhype Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 for all the non believers, "So, here's how this whole thing has gone down, and you guys have seen it play out. Anderson and 'GSP' were talking like they didn't wanna fight. Now, if St. Pierre beats Carlos Condit, he's saying he wants to fight Anderson, and Anderson is saying he wants to fight him. So, that fight will probably happen first. Now, Anderson and Jones are saying, 'We don't wanna fight. We're buddies.' But, he didn't wanna fight Rashad Evans either, and that happened. So, as you start to get to a point where Anderson is, in his career -- he's beat everyone. He's broken every record in the UFC. If he beats Georges St. Pierre, I guarantee you he'll be eyeballing Jon Jones next." - Dana White. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jukka Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I hope that fight isn't too little, too late. Even without the possible knee problems coming out of the surgery and the crazy layoff, I think Gsp would have a hard time with Anderson just due to size. I think Silva should take the Weidman fight, really the only mw im interested in seeing him fight right now. Him or Belcher, but hes out for who knows how long. And it would be interesting to see Jon Jones move up, LHW is gonna get reaallllll damn boring by the end of next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPS! Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 UFC sucks. One guys comes along in each division and beats on tomatoe cans for 10 wins and everyone acts like they're the best. Who the fuck have Silva or Bones even fought? When Silva is asked about Bones he's all like ''nope'', of course nigger, because you know its not a give me win so you don't want to do it. Same with Bones not fighting Chael. Fighting just sucks now, boxing included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_gacy Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 How can Joe Rogan stand to listen to himself talk as he hypes another lame fight? He sounds like he's trying to convince himself a fight will be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pertplus1 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 He sounds like hes being paid to hype a fight. What do you want him to say? "THIS FIGHT IS EXTREMELY ONE SIDED, DONT WATCH IT, IT WILL BE OVER IN 10 SECONDS". He hypes the fight so people watch, in result, giving him a paycheck. Just doing his job, man!

john_gacy Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I suppose he can only hype the fights they put together for him to hype, but it does take the respect level down a notch to see him hyping poop fights when the fights used to be something to get excited about. And I'm sure he'll live quite comfortably even if he were to never hype another fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
