GSP is my boy he wrecked the dude in his last fight.

Its a shame Din blew his knee out that fight looked like it was going to be really good. Pretty good night of fights, also I like Pete Sell but is anyone as good as he is at finding a way to lose? Needs to keep his damn hands up at least.

fenikz · 09-20-2007, 04:47 PM

last night when i was waiting to watch the fight around about 8:50 my cable goes out, so anyone know of a place that has some of the fights online

Ravens1991 · 09-20-2007, 07:37 PM

probably the typical spots, youtube is to popular but try dailymotion.

09-20-2007, 08:48 PM

Just search for it on google, either a stream or a torrent you should be able to find it. Also since it was shown on cable and not PPV streaming sites should have it so you probably wont need to DL a torrent or anything.

So what do you think is going to happen w/ UFC 76?

I think Liddell Kills Jardine

and I think Shogun gets a TKO in the 3rd but I could see it going the distance.

Liddell with a Right hook in the 2nd, TKO

Shogun, muay thai clinch with knees in the 1st, TKO

UKfan · 09-21-2007, 02:04 PM

Shogun via decapitation (KO in the first)

I'm going for an upset, Jardine over Liddell via GNP in the third

fenikz · 09-21-2007, 02:06 PM

Do you think Alexander fights one of these guys afterwards? he has been looking very dangerous lately and i don't know if the UFC wants either of these guys to lose.

trkaline · 09-21-2007, 02:08 PM

Lidell's gonna kill Jardine. He's goin to rebound after Rampage and I pity the fool who stands in his way....

MaxV · 09-21-2007, 02:43 PM

Liddell won't lose 2 in a row. But then again I said the same thing about Cro Cop.

Shogun will end it very quickly.

Ravens1991 · 09-21-2007, 04:04 PM

I saw a pic of Liddell training and he had a 6 pack. That tells me that he trained very hard for this fight and harder then his Rampage fight.

I think Shogun does have the potential to kill Forrest but Forrest does have more octagon expierence plus he does have some heart.

09-21-2007, 04:23 PM

I dont see Shogun really standing with or KO'ing Forrest. He is going to clinch up quickly and look to take it to the ground, pepper Forrest with some shots until he gives up a sub then lock it on. Shogun via sub in the 2nd.

Ravens1991 · 09-21-2007, 04:27 PM

I just heard that after UFC 75 White said that he signed Mark Hunt :) I love Hunt, a bullet couldn't go through his skull plus he has amazing standing skills. If he works on submission defense I could see him taking Fedor. Yes that is a bold prediction.

Nerv we are on the same page. People underrate Forrest, theres noway I think he wins but I think he can make it past round one. People please dont forget how virtual unknown Cyrille the snake Diabate (sp?) stood up with Shogun and was not out classed by any means.

UKfan · 09-21-2007, 05:06 PM

Diabaté's a great standup fighter, not so hot on the ground but excellent standup IMO. I'm just saying both my picks on a gut feeling...

Ravens1991 · 09-22-2007, 07:25 PM

Is anybody getting this card tonight?

I always have a bunch of friends over at my house and we just drink (juice ofcourse)and watch the fights.

I actually bought boxing gloves so we can fight after the card too. I'm always so hyped after watching a UFC card.

nvot9 · 09-22-2007, 07:30 PM

Can't wait for the fight tonight, I'm goin over a friends to watch it...

ccB · 09-22-2007, 07:34 PM

I'll be watching, never miss a fight.

Quick predictions:

-Mauricio "Shogun" Rua vs. Forrest Griffin- I think this will go closer than everyone expects. How will Shogun transition to fighting in the cage? Was he on roids in Pride? Forrest is a bigger than average LHW so if he can impose his will on Shogun early, it could cause Shogun to abandon his stand up for his submissions. I have been unimpressed with Shogun his last few fights and Id love to see the killer I saw a few years ago come back. Shogun via Split decision

-Chuck Liddell vs. Keith Jardine- Chucks not worried about Keith which is what worries me. Hes got his mind on Wandy and could end up getting upset. Ill still take chuck via KO

-Diego Sanchez vs. Jon Fitch - I originally predicted Fitch but he came into the weighs dehydrated after having to cut weight. So I say Diego via Decision

-Kazuhiro Nakamura vs. Lyoto Machida - Machida via Unanimous Decision (if he loses look for a move to MW)

-Tyson Griffin vs. Thiago Tavares - Thiago Tavares via sub

That is a good idea, I am trying to get it some time then have people show up and we split the price.

I love doing MMA w/ boxing gloves it is so fun. I am best at rear naked chokes and armbars from guard bottom, but I also love to Ground and pound that is fun.

my friend is a huge shogun fan and he thinks that shogun might lose. He's been reading up and apparantly shogun hasn't trained in the octagon and he didn't watch any videos on forrest griffin. Of course, it can be the polar opposite and shogun comes out flying, but i agree, i think this will be a closer than expected fight.

fenikz · 09-22-2007, 08:14 PM

Shogun via decapitation round 1

thats what i got

Ravens1991 · 09-22-2007, 08:51 PM

yea I have said Shogun wont walk through him like most think. I think Shogun wins but I dont think he kills him like some say. If it was in a ring then no question Shogun literally kills Forrest, but I say it at least goes to round 3.

my prediction is Shogun with a KO or submission with 1:47 left in the 3rd.
