my new favorite sport. just learing about it. hoping to see everyones opinion. looking forward to UFC 94. i think gsp will kick bj's ass. cant wait to see the machida vs silva fight either. rootin for machida myself love his fighting style.

I used to watch it a lot, but not so much anymore...paid too much for fights that didn't amount to jack. Plus the fighters seemed to increasingly turn into primadonnas. I did really want to see the Fedor Arlovski fight. From what I read, Arlovski was actually giving him a fight until he got knocked out cold.

I think Penn will win if and that is a big if he is in shape he dominated GSP the first time for 2 rounds until he got winded in fact I cant remember a time BJ didnt dominate the first round or 2 against anyone. If BJ is not in shape then GSP wins by decision. Machida in my opinion will kill Silva. His defense is just to good he never gets hit. Tonight on VS though is a good fight Donald Cerrone vs Jamie Varner in the WEC.

I actually watched that fight and I'm not even a UFC fan. It kind of got me into though. Arlovski had him backed into a corner and just took a love tap to the jaw dropped him cold.

Arlovski has a glass chin. Sucks too, because he's a skilled fighter.

The bar i was at had a bunch of side action going on. The guy at the table behind me lost $1600 on the fight.

Dayummm. I don't think I'd lay that kind of money down on a fight, too unpredictable.

madurofan

I'm not a gambler but my jaw dropped when he said that.

Anyone that put $1600 on Arlovski in that fight needs to quit smoking crack. Fedor has been the most dominant fighter in MMA since 2000 and was a 4 to 1 favorite in that fight. Arlovski might have been controlling the stand up but eventually fedor was going to take him to the ground and submit him easily. Not only that but Arlovski is known to have a glass chin even though he has very good boxing skills. Fedor could probably beat him 9 out of 10 times in his sleep.

Also if you want to see a guy with a ton of heart and a great chin watch for the WEC replay of Varner/Cerrone or look for it on the net this was a fight that could possibly win fight of the year and it is only January its one of the most action packed back and forth fights I have ever seen.

i knew it gsp was gonna walk all over penn. and he dominated him in rounds 2,3 and 4 penn was just overwhelmed did to him what he did to serra. beautiful fight. arlovski is fun to watch but yes he does have a glass jaw. i have seen him take a good hit or 2. but what got me what the machida vs silva fight. last second knock out. beautiful. stick and move and picking yoru shots will always win. unless you got a glass jaw. lol.

Stoogee

Yeah I was surprised at how much GSP dominated Penn. Penn could not deal with the strength of GSP. The machida fight didnt surprise me at all the guy never gets hit.

I loved seeing Machida destroy Silva. Silva is a punk and he needed a good beat down. What did surprise me was the aggressiveness Machida fought with while still maintaining his general elusiveness. I think he could hand Rashad a defeat quite soundly.

I was really suprised by the GSP/ Penn fight. I wasn't sure who was going to win before the fight, but I definately was not expecting that kind of domination. It was like watching the school bully beat up the class nerd.

I know what you mean, I expected more of a fight from BJ. It just goes to show how much GSP's game has evolved in comparison. BJ ought to stay where he is champ, he's a damn good lightweight, but I don't know if he can hang at 170.
