C1iffBurton -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 10:05:13 AM)

id like to see GSP win his fight because he is an awesome fighter but id also like to see a really good fight that will go at least past 2 rounds


brock lesnar ive yet to see fight so im unsure on that one


Huerta is crazy so id like to see him win his fight but i think florian is going to give him a good fight as well



LaGrizzly -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 10:07:04 AM)

I heard that Kimbo is suppose to be fighting Chuck Liddell this weekend? Has anyone else heard that?



ridered3 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 10:09:54 AM)

I havent heard anything about that but it would be awesome.  Im sure Liddel would win but it would still be interesting just to see how Kimbo measured up.

Why and how is that possible? Chuck is signed with UFC, Kimbo is signed with Showtime Elite XC. Chuck fights Edwards in September so he is not going to have a fight that close together.. this that you have heard is not true.

Gsp - KO in the second
Lesner - Ground and pound tko in the 1st
Florian - Huerta tossup don't know


Lidell and Kimbo never gonna happen in the UFC. Different weight classes and Kimbo has to beat some top level fighters first. 



ridered3 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 10:16:40 AM)

My opinions on the fights r like this.  1]  GSP is by far IMO the most rounded athlete in UFC and also has a great attitude and personality.  Other than Forest Griffin,  GSP is my fav fighter.  So Im going with him for the win.  Not just cause i like him but b/c he is just plain good

2]  As for Lesnar and Herring.  Well Lesnar is a gaint with little experience or at least he was in his last fight.  He just looked like a brawler.  So im gonna give the win to Herring.  HE just has way more experience IMO.  I have to give it to anyone that goes up against Lesnar.  They have got to have some huge kahonnies.  That guy is a freggins giant of a man but there is just no substitute for the experience that Frank Mir used to beat him.

3] Huerta and Florian is a hard one to call.  This one is a toss up.  Honestly i hope Florian wins.  But both guys r very talented



ridered3 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 10:21:11 AM)

Ur very right.  Unless for some crazy reason LIddell decided to leave UFC and sign with someone else. But hey a man can always dream of an unusual fight like that right?

You think that over Anderson Silva?? No doubt GSP is a good athlete and works hard at it. BUT i don't think he is a natural at it. he had to work for it. A. Silva is a natural 100%. That means alot. If you remember GSP gets cocky too. So i don't agree with you on the great attitude and personality. A. Silva has a way better attitude and personality. And he has the right to be cocky but is not.

GSP just to me seems like a rlly good guy.  He probably does know he is good but i dont blame him.  HE isnt a naturally great fighter i guess but i would give someone that isnt naturally good more credit than someone who is b/c they had to work so hard to get there.  As for Silva...well Silva is GREAT no doubt.  Before he fought Rich Franklin, i said Franklin was unbeatable and then Silva came in and made hamburger meat outta Rich's face [X(].  As of now idk who in this world can beat Silva.  I totally agree with u that he is good but atitude wise i just dont like him.  For one he cant speak english and he seems a lil to full of himself sometimes IMO.

LOL its funny you say that. a friend of mine hates him because he can't speak english. i'm like dude. alot of guys in the ufc can't speak english ha ha. but yea he does seem full of him self sometimes like when he wins he always does a lil dance or walkin to the ring he is always smiling and cuttin up. just his style i guess.

There is just something about not being able to speak our language that gets me idk.  But i always feel so sorry for Matt Hamill when they interview him after a fight and it seems like Joe Rogan just wants to make him talk more so everyone can just laugh at how he talks.  I know Matt is thinking in his head the whole time....."  Joe just shut up and let me stop making a fool of myself."  LOl  and i mean that in the nicest way possible about Matt.  I think he has a rly big heart.



OlBlue -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 11:09:50 AM)

Fitch
Herring
Florian

I am actually looking forward to UFC fight night in september on spike.
I have been wanting to see Mac Danzig fight again.
Clay Guida vs Mac Danzig should be a good test for Danzig.
You also have Joe Lauzon vs Kyle Bradley, i really like Lauzon's fighting style.



let_it_be_known -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 11:12:50 AM)

Yea i like matt hamil. he has a fight coming up against rich. haven't seen him in awhile

OlBlue -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 11:20:54 AM)

Thanks, Yeah the latest TUF winner Amir Sadala was at the horseshoe dome in Shreveport La. this past weekend for their fught night, He was just an audiance member but i heard there was some decent fights.



ridered3 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 11:24:30 AM)

U guys just wait.  Im gona be on here after the fight and i tell u all again i was right lol. 
Its gonna be  GSP, Herring and Florian.  Those r your winners.



dan_dfc -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 2:05:51 PM)

1. GSP vs Fitch I think is gonna be closer than most people think, GSP is one of the greatest right now but Fitch is a friggin ANIMAL who has kinda snuck in under the radar.
2. Herring and Lessnar is gonna be a joke Lessnar by TKO in the first minute.
3. Ken Flo fo' SHO, I don't think Huerta can hang when Ken flo starts droppin 'bows on him.

If Lesnar is gonna win then he better have learned to control himself a little.  that man is crazy but hey if he gets Herring down it might get ugly. 



1meanforeman450 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 5:26:48 PM)

i say GSP, Lesnar and Florian... i think Lesnar has learned from his last mistake... and might i add he also slipped up once with his leg in that fight and that led to a submission, Lesnar was pounding him in that fight, very impressive... although i dont put anything past herring, he is a bad @$$ himself, i like both and it can go either way but im leaning toward Lesnar



ridered3 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 6:23:39 PM)

I see where ur coming from.  Lesnar is a beast.  I just see herring beating him by having way more experience but it could be the other way around and it could get that way quick with the size of Lesnar.



1meanforeman450 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 7:01:12 PM)

did you guys watch ultimate fighter last season? at the beginning when they were battling to see who was on the show, jeremiah riggs from mississippi was on there.. i grew up with him, he and his family have been life long friends with me and my family. he actually did pretty good in the mma but got showed up real bad on ultimate fighter lol. he didnt give up though, i was proud of him for that. he carried a bad beating.

Thats cool.  A buddy of mine takes MMA training.  I would love to do it and actually get somewhere with it but i dont know how well i could take getting all the beatings before i actually got good at it lol



rodo -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 9:14:18 PM)

GSP (It all depends on which GSP shows up though!)
Herring (I hope)
Florian (Huerta is just a poster boy in my opinion, Florian will destroy him with his Muay Thai)



blake777 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 9:21:28 PM)

GSP
BROC
FLORIAN



GeorgiaGrizz05 -> RE: UFC 87 Whos gonna win it??? (7/24/2008 9:48:37 PM)

first off. 
Chuck is fighting Rashad Evans not edwards right?

now. i will be watching and im looking at it like this. hope i can say im right.

1. GSP if he shows up like he has been lately.
2. Lesnar if he doesnt screw up and get caught in a foot lock or something. (without that Mir would have been out)
3. huerta all day

How about i just ordered tickets to UFC 88 (i think) with the Chuck fight in Atlanta, Ga

Yea Liddell is fighting Rashad.  Ordering those tickets is a great idea.  If i had the money for gas and to buy the tickets i would go. A friend of mine and his wife r going.  Those lucky dogs.

ridered: IMo Lessnar got caught by one of the best jiujitsu guys on the planet, Herring ain't no Frank Mir, lol. I think the only reason Herring is still around is the heavy weight division is weak right now. If the heavy weight class was a stacked as light-heavyweights or welter weights he would have dissapeared a long time ago. You also gotta remember that Lessnar was a division 1 all american wrestler before he was a WWF show pony.

Ur definitely right about Frank Mir.  He is an awesome fighter.  Ill admit, I was afraid at a few times in that fight that Lesnar was gonna beat him but Mir pulled threw.  There is a very good chance that Lesnar will win August 9 but I still dont think he has it.  Yea he is an all american wrestler but that just isnt all u need to make it in the UFC.  But by no means is he not good.  SIze alone makes up for a lot.  And i see him being the champion one day but not for a while until he trains for MMA a lot more.
