Re: UFC 79: Nemesis Discussion

Fucking stoked to watch GSP beat the hell out of Hughes again. If Kos can't take him down more then once, Hughes doesn't stand much of a chance. George only had 1 month's notice, but Greg Jackson said he was in fighting shape anyways, and I hope that isn't just pre fight brevado.

I want Wandy to KO Chuck. Not because I don't like Chuck, I'm just sick of all the popped collar douchbags who only know Chuck and Tito claiming he is the best. But this should be an amazing fight, and I honestly don't care who wins, I'm just glad we get to see it.
But Wandy has finally taken time off, and training with Randy should help prepare him.

I may be looking forward to Sokoudjou's octagon debuet the most though, unless Machida slows his pace effectively I think Soko will take it.

Re: UFC 79: Nemesis Discussion

I am really hoping Hughes wins this one. I like Hughes and I want to see him fight Serra. If he loses this, he probably won't get a shot at Serra.

I would like to see Chuck win this but I don't think he will Wanderlei is just too tough for him and Chuck is too much of a one dimensional fighter.

I haven't got to see Sokoudjou fight yet but I have heard quite a bit about him. I am looking forward to see what he can do.

Re: UFC 79: Nemesis Discussion

I think Hughes will fight Serra regardless. There is too much hype around it and Hughes has too much pride to not fight him.

Yeah, it wouldn't be for the title though.

That would bring the match down several notches and it will be no where near as good as it could be.

Re: UFC 79: Nemesis Discussion

Thats true. I wish there was a possibility for all fights to be 5 rounds, the decision would be up to Dana, Monte Cox and the fighters.

Re: UFC 79: Nemesis Discussion

Man I know no matter how much liquor I will have in my system by the time of the GSP fight, all of my buzz will be gone. I am just too damn nervous that he will go and get his ass knocked out again!

What a stacked card! I can't say I am super excited about the Liddell-Silva fight (came about way too late), but it makes a great non-main event fight. I can't wait to see the newly signed Sokoudjou. Machida looked like a cardio machine in his fight against Kazuhiro Nakamura... but I guess even my grandma would have been compared to the Energizer Bunny next to his fat ass.

And in the undercard, I would really like to see Manny Gamburyan!

Re: UFC 79: Nemesis Discussion

The Chuck Liddell/Wanderlei Silva match was a good one. I didn't really realize how much of a reach advantage Chuck had and that made a big difference in the fight. Chuck looked pretty good but with the announcers screaming "The Iceman is back!" was a bit of overkill. I don't think Chuck looked like the Chuck of old. I don't think he will ever beat Rampage.

The Matt Hughes/Georges St. Pierre was very surprising to me. Hughes was dominated worse this time than last time. At least last time it could be said that St. Pierre got lucky and knocked him out. This time was complete and total domination. St. Pierre was taking down Hughes down at will. I say Hughes fights one more fight and that will be Serra after Serra fights GSP.

The Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou/Lyoto Machida fight was pretty boring. I had not ever seen Sokoudjou fight but I was dissappointed in his performance. He had some good wins under his belt, but he didn't show it here.

The Rich Clementi/Melvin Guillard fight was one of my favorites of the night. They had exchanged some words over the internet and there was definitely some hard feeling there going in. I loved the trash talking by Clementi at the end. I never really cared about Clementi before, but this performance made me like him a lot more.

Re: UFC 79: Nemesis Discussion

I'm happy about the Chuck KO over Wandy. I get tired of the PRIDE fans that come out of the woodwork claiming UFC isn't legit.
