UFC, WEC, Strikeforce, K-1, Bellator, Dream, Sengoku, Shooto, Tachi Palace Fights, etc, etc, etc.

Title says it all - anything and everything Mixed Martial Arts!

Let's start this thread off with a discussion of the utmost importance...
Quick, who would win: Shaq or Hong Man Choi?
https://sports.yahoo.com/video/player/news/14004763

I think it's a coin flip, but i'll give the edge to Choi cause he's got some fighting experience, if you call beating up on a washed up Canseco a fight...

why the old thread get locked and moved?

anyway.

coture and nogera ufc 101

The Free UFC fight this sat on spike should be pretty good. The Clay Guida fight should be a brawl. His last fight he barely squeaked out a win over the much smaller nate diaz. Nate is fighting again on this card. I like him a lot more than his cocky brother nick. I think he just needs to let his hands go a little bit more. I hope that guy from the USA team knocks that guy from the UK out. I cant believe how sav that guy Frankie from the US was on the show. He had 3 fights in 3 weeks. No wonder he was tired after the first round. Did you see when hes teeth got knocked out and were stuck in his mouth piece? Then he had to keep fighting of would lose the fight. That guy will deff be fighting in the UFC even though he lost on the show. That's all heart you cant teach that. Half those guys don't have the heart he showed.

The old thread got locked because me and Mrs.Babba decided that a thread for MMA as a whole rather than just for the UFC and the defunct Pride would hopefully influence more talk of MMA outside of just the UFC, as well as confine all MMA chat to one large thread. Seeing as how there are literally dozens of other promotions with top tier world class talent and so much happening outside of the UFC, it made sense to close that thread and start one that will hopefully have broader discussion.

Mrs.Babba · 06-19-2009, 01:10 AM

Im looking forward to the Carano vs Cyborg fight! Not sure why[I know why guys like it heheh] maybe cuz they dont fight very often but those girls can kick ass!! Gina is an awesome fighter, shes very entertaining to watch!
We are friends with Nick and Nates uncle [Nick is named after him] so its kinda cool to talk to him when we see him and ask about his nephews.
Get your fight on!!! hahaha

Thats cool Mrs. Babba. I took a Pic with Nick at the Uriah fight a couple weeks ago. Hes a lot taller in person.

A couple of decent cards happening tonight for anyone interested.

The second installment of Strikeforce's ShoMMA Challenger series will be on Showtime tonight at 10, headlined by Joey Villasenor (fighting out of Greg Jackson's camp) and Chute Boxe's Evangelista Santos.

The one fight I'm really looking forward too though is top-15 welterweight Nick Thompson's 50th bout against former Special Forces Green Beret Tim Kennedy at middleweight. Nick has fought at middleweight before with mixed results but he has been training with alot of big guys including Brock Lesnar, so it'll be interesting to see how his performace turns out. Kennedy on the other hand hasn't fought in 18 months since before leaving for his last tour in Afghanistan. Alot of variables in this one and it could go either way. Expect an exciting fight.

Also, Bellator Fighting Championships will be hosting their lightweight and middleweight tournament finals tonight to crown the first respective champions in the new organization. 3rd ranked lightweight in the world Eddie Alvarez will be competing against Toby Imada for one of the belts and a $100,000 purse. Imada was a huge underdog in the semi-finals against Jorge Masvidal but he came from behind with an inverted triangle choke in the 3rd round that could be submission of the year. Another fight with big potential. BFC will be on Spanish television only (ESPN Deportes) but you can catch it on their website on Wednesday in English if desired.

Enjoy.

Choi has terrible technique but is an experienced fighter at the end of the day so i cant really see shaq beating him, although he does seem to sometimes fold under pressure!! dont think this fight can be taken to seriously!
