THE MANDALORE Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Did anyone see it? I wasn't in the country so i cudn't get it on ppv but i heard it was thrilling. What did u guys think about Brock Lesnar's post-victory rant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamqd Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Yea I watched it, good night, great fights. I'm English but seeing Bisping Knocked out was a Joy, I hate the guy lol. I was disappointed that Brock won, I think although he is a dominant champion, the sport would be better off without him. GSP was awesome as always! My Favorite fighter Stephan Bonnar lost yet again , he's a talented, funny as hell tough fighter, but he has had bad luck recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Yeah, I watched it. All of my picks from the main card pretty much one. I picked Bisping to win, but Henderson's knockout was ****ing sick. Definitely knockout out of the year. And GSP was great as usual. Easily beating Alves. I've been a fan of Brock Lesnar since he was in the WWE. So, when I beat Mir, who I despise, I was pretty happy. Overall, it's one of the best cards I've watched in a while.

Darth Kuya Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yep, saw it. And I must admit that it lived up to its billing. I only wish they showed the undercard fights as well. Yep, pretty much called all of the fights, but didn't expect the Bisping knockout or that Alves would be taken down so easily and frequently by GSP. I'm glad Brock apologized for his antics in the Octagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurges-Ahter Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Henderson's knockout of Bisping was pretty sick - especially the second elbow after Bisping was out. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Shake Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Brock Lesnar is BEAST. That's all the information I was able to deduct from watching, watch out UFC, this guy's for real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurges-Ahter Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 He is a beast, but he's also a classless moron. I will be rooting for him to lose every fight, although it seems unlikely at this point. At least he couldn't cut it in the NFL - the Vikings let him go quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE MANDALORE Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 ^^^^^ There are two people who have a shot at takin him down: -Shane Carwin -Fedor Emelianenko Shane Carwin is slightly bigger than Brock and is more experienced as well. IMO, if he wins at UFC 104, Carwin will dominate Lesnar and take the championship belt. Fedor, as all hardcore mma fans know, is unsurpassed in the sport. Granted, he's only 6' and 220 pounds, but Fedor has destroyed countless mma champs. (look how quickly he defeated 6'8'' Tim Sylvia) The only problem is that Fedor is under contract with Affliction and probably wont come to the UFC until Feb 2010.

Gurges-Ahter Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Carwin will have to keep Lesnar on his feet, test out his chin. Of course Carwin did show some resilience against Gonzaga when that match went to the mat. Fedor FTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Kuya Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I agree that Shane Carwin and Fedor Emelianenko are the top 2 contenders. I'd like to see Carwin perform against Cain Velasquez first before I'd agree that he deserves a title shot NOW, though... Perhaps the reason why the next Ultimate FIghter season is all about Heavyweights is because the UFC's Heavyweight division needs more competitors. I hated the USA vs (another country) themes. We need to get over nationalities and simply cheer for the fighters we like for their performances. I was disgusted and appaled when Georges St.Pierre got booed because he defeated an American fighter in America. The UFC is not the WWE or some other professional wrestling theater show. (My apologies for the rant.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Right now, I don't think anyone can beat Lesnar. I don't think Carwin is going to beat Lesnar. Fedor is probably the only fighter, I believe that can beat Lesnar. Also, I'd have to say Lesnar is about the only guy who can probably beat Fedor too.

adamqd Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 I hated the USA vs (another country) themes. We need to get over nationalities and simply cheer for the fighters we like for their performances. I totally agree, as I said, Hendo is one of my all time favorite fighters, and Bisping is one of my least favorite, but because I'm English I feel I'm pushed into the Bisping corner. Especially when the commentators are all "The British fans love him, they'll be bitterly disappointed, he's their hero" lol, I half expected the Hulk Hogan theme to play at the end, with Hendo on Dana whites Shoulders haha.

Ha ha! That was funny and quite spot on! On the other hand, I can see where you may not like Bisping, but you have to admit he's a great fighter and he represents the UK well with his performance in the octagon. He's all about winning, at whatever cost, and I admit I understand that sentiment. I don't AGREE with it, but I understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Avlectus Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Did anyone see it? I wasn't in the country so i cudn't get it on ppv but i heard it was thrilling. What did u guys think about Brock Lesnar's post-victory rant? I didn't see it but Lesnar's arrogance is nothing new. Can't deny he is one strong guy. Aggressive and athletic. However, he was just going off like he used to back in the days of Pro Wrestling. While I think he has one hell of a work ethic, he only did what he did b/c he knows he has security and police there to protect him from being owned by hundreds of angry audience members. I'd like to see him *try* that where law enforcement won't protect you for being a putz like that. I wonder why he doesn't go out and do some "no-holds barred" fighting if he's so damn tough. He should be able to wipe the floor with an 86 year old Aikido master, riiiiiiight? Or try getting back into the NFL if he's so "invincible". He won't, b/c he has found something (with rules) he can dominate at--and White will be his yes man as long as it rakes in money. I totally agree, as I said, Hendo is one of my all time favorite fighters, and Bisping is one of my least favorite, but because I'm English I feel I'm pushed into the Bisping corner. Especially when the commentators are all "The British fans love him, they'll be bitterly disappointed, he's their hero" lol, I half expected the Hulk Hogan theme to play at the end, with Hendo on Dana whites Shoulders haha. Hogan. You mean Rick Derringer's "Real American"? Well, I heard he (Bisping) turned down joining the UFC. Bummer. Someone needs to humble Lesnar down. (Maybe somebody will mow him over at 90 mph?)

Commander Obi-Wan Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I think Lesnar is fine after what happened at UFC 100. White has made his point, and if Lesnar wants to stay in the UFC. He'll have to do anything White wants him to do. And I think he will. Brock is the heavyweight champion in the strongest promotion (UFC) in the fastest growing sport.
