Azteca 12-26-2007, 03:28 PM That's a crazy card.....
Dorian 12-26-2007, 04:05 PM yep should be good
Palma 12-26-2007, 05:44 PM Lyoto Machide Vs Rameau Sokoudjou- Machida UD
A lot of you are picking Machide to win this one. I guess you guys know something I don't cause I went with Sokoudjou.
PINOYPRIDE 12-26-2007, 06:01 PM Soku defeated two top fighters in Pride and Machida beat BJ Penn, Forrest, Franklin.
But Soku has some heavy hands and his Judo is excellent.
Hard to pick a winner but Machida might just get the UD over Soku.

I think Wanderlai will be disqualifed beacuse his two favourite techniques are illegal in the UFC , Kick to the head when opponent is grounded and sidewards elbow strike.
2swell k-wells 12-26-2007, 07:27 PM machida will break soko...now that soko is off the roids.
Darkstar 12-26-2007, 07:39 PM Best UFC card in a while. The countdown is on ****e tonight at 11PMest.
Blair_Wells#32 12-27-2007, 01:13 PM i picked Machida jus cause i think he's goin 2 out last sokoudjou an just do enough 2 win.
Chuck vs Wanderlei was hard 2 pick someone in that one, i think Silva's new training team will make the difference though an he won't jus go out there swining wild an actualy have a game plan.
GSP vs Hughes wasn't hard at all i think gsp will out wrestle hughes take him down an choke him just a hunch.
number6 12-27-2007, 01:51 PM Lyoto Machide Vs Rameau Sokoudjou- Machida UD
A lot of you are picking Machide to win this one. I guess you guys know something I don't cause I went with Sokoudjou.
Machida is very hard to hit, he will frustrate Sokoudjou and just pick up points.
Sokoudjou has good kicks but his punches are a touch on the wild side, so i cant see him landing the big 1 on Lyoto.
I would imagine Sokoudjou would be the betting fav. in this one but i dont see it that way personally.
Nodogoshi 12-29-2007, 02:52 AM Matt Hughes Vs George St Pierre- St Pierre 3rd round KO
Chuck Liddel Vs Wanderlei Silva- Silva 2nd Round KO
Lyoto Machide Vs Rameau Sokoudjou- Sokoudjou 3rd round KO
Rich Clementi Vs Melvin Guillard- Melvin 2nd round KO

Roan Carneiro Vs Tony DeSouza - Desouza by decision
Mark Bocek Vs. Doug Evans - Bocek 1st round Sub
blockhead 12-29-2007, 01:36 PM i am sure all the fights will be really good.
i hope hughes gets crushed
and that liddell silva fight is going to be something else.
silva ko in 2
HotSizzle 12-29-2007, 04:30 PM Anybody up for a bet? I got silva over liddel
Azteca 12-29-2007, 04:32 PM That card is STACKED.
blockhead 12-29-2007, 07:53 PM Anybody up for a bet? I got silva over liddel
you and everybody else.
Azteca 12-29-2007, 09:21 PM UFC 73 Stacked and UFC 79 are the best cards of the year.
THe only ones i actually shelled out money for.
TheGreatA 12-29-2007, 09:29 PM I'm picking
Silva over Liddell by TKO
GSP over Hughes by decision
Machida over Sokoudjou by decision.
I'm not sure about these predictions at all.
Azteca 12-29-2007, 09:32 PM For some reason my gut keeps telling me to pick Lidell. Dont ****ing know why.
TheGreatA 12-29-2007, 09:36 PM For some reason my gut keeps telling me to pick Lidell. Dont ****ing know why.
Because Silva is wild, has lost his last two by brutal KO's and his strikes are looping. Chuck is counter-puncher with one punch KO power.
I feel like Liddell's reflexes are gone and he can't see the punches coming anymore and that's why I feel he will lose.
I predict Silva will overwhelm him but no one knows how the KO's have affected him and if he has some ring-rust.
A lot of unknown factors about these match-ups with GSP's short notice and Sokoudjou's inexperience but amazing potential.

i agree..................:banana:
Azteca 12-29-2007, 09:38 PM I know. But last time I checked Silva lost his last 2 bouts, one of them was to henderson and i cannot remember the other one.
Henderson is henderson, but this just might be a styles matchup that favors chuck.
Then again, he lost to freakin Jardine of all peoplpe.
TheGreatA 12-29-2007, 09:40 PM Then again, he lost to freakin Jardine of all people.
That's pretty much it. Liddell seemed like a shot fighter in that fight.
Let's see if he still has some more gas left in the tank.
Azteca 12-29-2007, 09:41 PM That's pretty much it. Liddell seemed like a shot fighter in that fight.
Let's see if he still has some more gas left in the tank.
I've always hated Chuck. Hated the dude for years. I thought he was some protected street fighter that got lucky all of these years.
But something about this fight is telling me to pick Lidell. I dont know what the **** it is.
I might just put some actual money down on him.
TheGreatA 12-29-2007, 09:53 PM Well can't really call a wrestler and kickboxer with Liddell's credentials a street fighter.
But he sure does have an annoying look and his punching is as ugly as it gets.
Azteca 12-29-2007, 09:54 PM A wrestler and a kick boxer?
WHat are you talking about, dude?
He is a master at neither.
He is awkward as hell and just a born fighter who fights off of great instinct.
TheGreatA 12-29-2007, 09:58 PM He isn't a master but his wrestling is good, he can scramble up to his feet very well and he has competed in karate since he was 12. He wasn't a kickboxer though so I was wrong about that.
Azteca 12-29-2007, 09:59 PM He was a high school wrestler, man.
I heard he wrestled a little bit in college also.
Not really impressed.
St.Pierre trains with freakin olympic caliber guys.
Lidell aint **** but an awkward counterpuncher.
TheGreatA 12-29-2007, 10:01 PM He was a high school wrestler, man.
I heard he wrestled a little bit in college also.
Not really impressed.
St.Pierre trains with freakin olympic caliber guys.
Lidell aint **** but an awkward counterpuncher.
If you can defend Couture's and Tito's takedowns you have to pretty good at wrestling.
I don't think his wrestling is **** offensively but he uses it defensively very well, a hard man to take down, especially to keep down.
Unless you knock him out of course and that's becoming increasingly easier as his reflexes go.
TheGreatA 12-30-2007, 01:02 AM Didn't get that one right but Silva is f'n tough. I guess Chuck still had that one 'performance' left.
King Koopa 12-30-2007, 01:43 AM Great night of UFC action tonight, I was impressed
