Fedor can't be beat! Can't wait to see him back in action. Maybe Cro Cop should issue a challenge with Fedor since he's on fire!!! Did anyone see him knock out Wanderlei? That was brutal! And the fact that Fedor is coming out of injury and uncertain his current condition, Cro Cop might stand a chance. I think the next title fight is Fedor vs. Coleman which I see no competition in. I still think that Cro-Cop is the only competitor in MMA that would hold a candle to Fedor, no one else!

 

As for Ortiz vs. Shamrock, Shamrock needs to just give up. He's way past his prime, already lost twice (brutally in the first fight), and had a embarassing lost to Franklin already. Silva vs. Franklin, that will be interesting. Franklin is well rounded and has great speed but lacks the power against Silva. Silva has some heavy strikes and will love to see that Muay Thai put to work. Anything could happen with this one.

 

I won't be around to watch the Ortiz vs. ShamPillow fight, but I already know the outcome. I'm waiting on Ortiz vs. Liddell #2. The last UFC (63) was great. Almost all the fights were amazing. I don't know many of the fighters in Pride, but I'll watch it whenever it's on tv. I'm familiar with Mirco, Wanderlei, and.. well that's mainly it.

 

not so much a boxing fan

but MMA i watch it all the time TONIGHT! the free tito vs shamrock fight! on spike tv!

 

Cool, lots of MMA fans in here!! Yeah, I did see the Cro-Cop vs Wanderlei fight. The outcome was inevitable! Once Wand's right eye swelled shut, I knew is was basically over. And a minute of so later, BAM!

Keep in mind though that Wanderlei was fighting a HW!

I can't believe how far boxing has dropped from the mainstream audience! Boxing is still going strong with the lower weight classes. Mayweather is probably the best boxer around since Sugar Ray Leonard, or even Sugar Ray Robinson!!! He just needs to fight more elite fighters. He hasn't done so in a couple years, so some fans are starting to get impatient with him.

Another good boxer to look out for, who happens to be in Mayweather's weight class is Miguel Cotto. Man, this guy has some power! He's been unofficially nick-named the Bone-Crusher on some sites, because he's always breaking someone's bones, from ribs to jaws to orbital bones! Definitely someone to look out for.

I got some gifs of MMA and boxing, I'll post them in here for you guys!

I watch Pride much more than UFC. UFC is nice, but Pride is international, and the rules create an atmosphere where wrestlers pay dearly for missed takedowns. The fighters have much more quality and experience. UFC has a Lot of ground and pound, with much less skill in submission quality. I watch UFC, though, and it has its moments!

I think Valuev might be something. Although he hasn't fought a high named boxer, it seems his sheer size and power might be enough to unify the belts. Sure, Merchant and Emmanuel Stewart gave him bad marks for his fighting style, but he took some MAJOR hits and looked to feel no pain. I can't wait to see him fight again.

My favorite fighter: Noguiera. anyone see him beat bob sapp? Pure Heart that one... and skill.

 

^^^ Yeah, it was great to see him comeback to sub Bob Sapp!!! Man, Nog has a head/chin of steel!!! I thought he was going to be done once Sapp slammed him hard! But that was years ago!!!! Where's Bob Sapp now???

My favorite MMA fighters are: Fedor Emilianenko, Wanderlei Silva, Takanori Gomi, Hidehiko Yoshida, Mark Hunt, Cro-Cop, and Josh Barnett.

Favorite Boxers: Floyd Mayweather Jr., Miguel Cotto, Marco A. Barrera, Manny Pacquiao, Roy Jones Jr., James Toney, and Bernard Hopkins.

 

I highly suggest staying with it, when I started, I wasn't too excited about it, but as time went on, I noticed my technique and ground movement beginning to become smoother, that's where it gets fun.

How long have you been in it?

 

His right eye was shut! That's the side that Cro Cop's famous Left Kick comes from!!!

And as for Mark Hunt, that guys also has a chin! He took Cro Cop's kick like it was nothing!!! And I also agree that Nog has a strong chin. Watching him take a beating from Fedor was just scary.

Even though they called off the fight between Wanderlei Silva vs. Chuch Liddell, I would still love to see that fight. I still question Silva's ability to take a hard hit. Cro Cop's kick is another story, that's the most deadly kick in MMA. Chuck Liddell has some heavy hands! Quinton Jackson beat Liddell but that was a while back and not sure if the same outcome was to happen if they fought now. I love to watch Wanderlei fight and would love to see him win but you can't take Liddell lightly either.
