UFC 114: Rampage v Rashad

The long awaited bout is finally here and your boy will be in attendance this weekend in Vegas.

We have some pricey seats so I should be close to the action and I will give a nice post-fight report when I get back.

My money (literally) is on Rampage and I hope he tears down Rashad

Lucky man, Enjoy.

I agree on all of your predictions.

Rashad has most of the tools necessary to beat Rampage, the only one missing is a steel jaw

I am too lazy to post my entire UFC 114 experience at the moment but will do so later. I got pics of Ken Flo and Couture and a vid of a few of the entrances. I also got a pic with Thiago Alves!

Unfortunately I lost my money on Rampage and Lauzon

Nice little filler card on Saturday night put on by the UFC. Dana White finally got what he wanted -- Liddell to never fight again in the UFC

Fight of the night was Cro Cop-Barry. It was great to see them enjoy the fight and smile during the rounds. They truly did admire and respect each other. Barry knocked Mirko down twice in the 1st round and he didn't pounce on him possibly end the fight. But I was happy to see Mirko win with that rear naked choke. He really turned it on in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Forza Cro Cop, forza Zagreb!

Now to the main event - this fight was just weird. Liddell was supposed to be in the best shape of his life apparently

Too bad that his glass jaw was still in effect. Liddell is a stalker not an aggressor. He baits in his opponent but on Saturday he was really on the prowl. Primarily because he was facing a southpaw and his overhand right would be prime to employ.

Was I surprised that Chuck was knocked out...? no
Was I surprised that Rich fought on with a broken left arm? yes

Rich caught him with a nice short jab since Chuck decided to go ballz out at the end of the first. Probably because he knew that Franklin was hurt. But he ate it and ate it good.

Props to Rich but he needs to drop back down to middleweight. He can't hang with the talent in the light-heavyweight class.

Farewell to a legend and the greatest light-heavyweight the UFC has ever employed int:


I forgot to mention July 3rd!!! Its going down sonnnnn

first, Italy gets knocked out in the first round, and now Fedor gets submitted in the first against Werdum

this has been one shitty week

 

[.zero]

The unthinkable has happened and I actually missed the fight. But the moment I found out on saturday night my jaw dropped.

First Penn, then Machida and now Fedor

Hopefully Carwin will make everything right by beating Lesnar on saturday

 

[K.O.]

I'm sure Carwin will win the fight. The question is, is it gonna end in the first round like usual?

 

[.zero]

I hope it doesn't but I don't see it going more than 2 for sure. These are 2 guys who are the only 2 people in the world that can fight each other.

Maybe Overeem v the winner

 

[K.O.]

Really charged up for Lesnar vs. Carwin! It'll be epic.

I hope 'The Engineer' Carwin will not do the usual and will let the fight go on for at least another round before he knocks Lesnar's ass out.

 

[Stevie]

I hope Carwin gives him a good beating. Gutted Wanderlei isnt fighting.

 

[Zé Tahir]

I'll be rooting for Carwin. Someone needs to bring down that cocky Lesnar.

 

[K.O.]

I hope Carwin gives him a good beating. Gutted Wanderlei isnt fighting.

Yeah, me too, I was looking forward to see Wanderlei tonight.

 

[K.O.]

I'll be rooting for Carwin. Someone needs to bring down that cocky Lesnar.

I'll only be satisfied with a KO or a submission.

 

[Stevie]

Stefan Bonnar is a warrior

 

[Stevie]

Every fight has been great so far, that was a great win for Leben... now for the big one

 

[K.O.]

Amazing fights!

Now, I'm happy that Wanderlei got injured, Chris Leben submitting a master in Judo (One of the best in the world) was truly heroic

Now, Carwin v. Lesnar

 

[K.O.]

Carwin fucked up Lesnar.

 

[K.O.]

OMG Lesnar finished it!

 

[K.O.]

Great UFC night that was, though.
