Is Shamrock coming with a surprise for Ortiz?

I read in an interview that AA started fighting for a quick win after his first few loses. I think that is what drove him to go after Sylvia as he did in their last bout. Sylvia is always trying to discredit AA and I believe that in AA's fight against cabbage Joe stated "this guy is not human" in reference to the blows cabbage was taking but Sylvia believed it to be AA. In their last fight he stated that he proved AA was not human, that just goes to show you how Sylvia perceives AA. I hope AA has learned his lesson and will make sure he works this guy in UFC 61.

I'll admit that I haven't seen very many of Sylvia's fights, but the last two I saw him win were him flailing a limb and accidentally getting the KO. He doesn't seem to have much coordination, just throwing the haymaker and hoping it connects, whil Arlovski is a lot more technical, I could be wrong though. The heavyweight class bores me so I try and stay away from it. Should be a good fight either way. :boxing: Shamrock is a bigtime underdog. I agree BTW. Tito is going to maul him.

Although I like Tito because he makes things interesting, I think Shamrock is going to hammer his ass.

Shamrock is naturally a heavy guy and pretty cut so when he had to lose weight to make the 205 class his body might have not been able to adapt easily. That is why he held on for the full duration of the fight. I think he has been training and will come with a surprise. I hope the fight is eventful. Whenever there is a great build up to a fight I always fear it will end within the first minute.

Best fight of the night will be Berkman vs. Neer in my opinion. I am pretty sure Shamrock is done, Ortiz should take that, and as for Silvia vs. Arlovski, I thought there was NO WAY Silvia would win the last fight, but he did, so I have no clue, but I will say Arlovski is the better fighter, I hope he gets the belt back. These are just my opinions, I could be wrong

Oh and Frank Mir vs. Christiansen, give me break, the last two fights I saw by both of them lead me to believe it will be a lot of bouncing around and gassing after 1 minute, I predict a sorry sorry fight there.

I'm not looking forward to Mir fighting anyone, not even the winner of Sylvia Vs. Arlovski 3. The Ken Shamrock fight will be very entertaining becuase of all the conflict. I love it. I want Tito to win so he can fight Liddell but I believe that Ken will take this one. I believe the guy is much more prepared and mentally above Tito this time around.

Many people say that AA has a glass chin. In one of his early interviews he stated that he only fights to win, and quickly. I think as soon as he gets hit he goes down because he does not want to lose. He is discouraged from fighting back because once he begins to lose he gives up (maybe he doesn't want to ruin his good looks?). He stated that he will be more prepared this time around and I believe that this fight should go the distance just so there is zero doubt left in Sylvia's mind that AA is the better fighter.

Shamrock is going to get smashed again. The first fight was a beating and the same will happen the second time.
