spider gets respect, but he needs some big time meat opposite him. someone who COUNTERS his skills. no one hes faced is in a class of their own. liddell would chew him up if spider moved up, same with rampage though. lol. i like my big boys, lol. that soudned gay didnt it?

Drew - You are the bomb YO... thanks for the excellent assessment, I couldn't have said it better myself!

id love to see the spider fight machida. both have very hard styles to fight against, but i still think silva would take it.

Randy signed another 3fight contract with UFC which would put him at another year with the ufc if not more. so dont expect to see RC VS Fedor anytime soon because fedor has a contract with affliction to fight the winner of Barnett VS AA which means that fight will take place around feb or march of next year. then maby fedor will come to the ufc, who knows?

i think a good fight for anderson silva would be thiago alves, if he could make 185, he killed matt hughes and was 2pounds overwieght for that one, both have same style, and love the clinch, plus thiago has nasty kicks.

as far as faber VS Sherk, im going with Faber, kid is constent pressure and fast, id like to see him up there with BJ, see if he wants to go to the ground then

No doubt that Sherk is a bad-ass but Faber is just as strong and much faster. Even if he didnt stand up and just bang with Sherk he would sprawl circles around him on the ground. His speed and ground skills give the edge to Faber for me.

And I completely agree about Alves and Silva, that would be a sweet match up. Alves just needs to get his mass up.

I love Dana White's argument for putting Couture Vs. Lesnar is because it's the fight "fans" want to see.

If you think about it, it's pretty much a slap in the face to any and all Heavyweights in the UFC for this fight to happen. How does a fighter with a record of 2-1 get a shot at a living legend and Heavyweight title? Because Dana wants to buy another yacht.

The match-up makes no sense; If/When Couture wins, it'll be because he fought an inexperienced figher with ONLY 3 FIGHTS under his belt. IF Lesnar wins, it'll be because he fought an aging fighter who is 45 years old. This fight only diminishes the credibility of the UFC Heavyweight title, which SHOULD be the crown jewel for Heavyweights after PRIDE was bought out.

I'm just hoping Couture finishes him off and Nogiuera takes care of business against Mir in December to set up Couture Vs. Nogiuera, next year. That's the only real Heavyweight SUPER-FIGHT worth looking forward to until Mr. Emelienenko's contract with Affliction is up.

Oh, K.J. Noons is a *****!

faber is friggin awesome. he trains like a madman. love that kid. lol. wish hed go to UFC. ufc wrestlers are mostly a joke, they get a guy down and hump him for 3 rounds.

yea agree, till fedor comes to ufc Nog VS RC is about as big of a fight HW is gonna get. and KJ Noons lol i donno where to start with that kid.

now we got HDNet fights sponsering affliction as well, war affliction

poor lesnar. hes a sideshow til he does something good,lol.

Poor lesnar? that guys a d!*k!

Let him earn some stripes in the UFC and shed some of that WWF bs, I say. The fact he's fighting Couture is disappointing.

I read that too. I wish HD-Net wasn't an HD only channel. I'm missing out on their broadcasts of all the DREAM fights and Inside-MMA with El Guapo, Bas Rutten.

Word up Sir Jacob, how ye be?

LOL I love Bas Rutten, he is such a nutbag. And out of all the fighters out there Bas is the last guy I would ever wanna fight.

ChefBadger vs Tim Sylvia! A battle of GIGANTORS!!!

I put my money on ChefBadger

Oh jeez... I would def give Big Sloppy a run for his money, he might have me on stand up but I would take him apart on the ground. And I have a national and several state Judo titles to prove it.

Aaaand back to the subject at hand...

Great point that Lesner is a sideshow. Because that would make Dana White the circus owner that wants to make more money off what he thinks will make a great main attraction. Namely Lesner's sideshow.
I believe Kimbo Slice is trying to pull that very same freak show in that XFC thing that Showtime is running if I'm not mistaken.

yea elite xc is slowely gonna fade away, there like 30mill in the hole already, then kimbos gonna come to the ufc cuzz affliction wont sign his ass and get killed by someone like heath herring who is horable, or god imagine him against mirko cro cop lol kimbo would fall over.

All about money.If Couture gets him in a quick submission or cracks Lesner's jaw...it's over...if Lesner gets ahold of him tightly or in a good ground and pound attack a couple times in the corner up against the fence it could be a long day for Randy.
