MMA Live Episode 29 From ESPN

What is up with the sucking up to the UFC and bringing down other organisations like affliction and Dream??

I am losing a bit of respect for MMA Live..they seem to be UFC and Dana white nut huggers.

And yes, I agree with Espelho. The show does seem to be biased toward the UFC. Then again, so is my HW list, so I guess I can’t say much.

Another thing. I’m probably going to get laughed out of the room for this, but I would actually favor GSP over Brock Lesnar in a fight. Even with a 100lb weight difference. I think that St Pierre is so quick and so hard to control that he would pick him apart like a matador vs a bull. Go ahead WWF fans. Bring on the childish leet speak and put me in my place.

Electrical Engineer talk

Werdum just got knocked out by a no name and Mir was getting abused before the ref interceded and Brock made a rookie mistake. The fact is the longer away the fight is worse its gonna be for anyone that steps in a cage with Lesnar. I could see Minotauro winning in the unification because hes a competent striker and he’s tougher than leather. Fedor , Fedor , Fedor … who gives a fuck about fucking fedor ? He’s never fought in a cage and he hasn’t fought a top competitor in years. He Roy Jones’n it right now living off his record and his name … Arlovski is a beast but his chin is chandelier

ok who let the retards in?
So the blackswordsman left room to say that eh. arlosvki had a chandelier chin so no big deal if Fedor beats him. Fedor beat the F out of Sylvia. Fact is Fedor is the best out there thats why we give “an F ” about him.

And gsp would have a chance against Lesnar.

And calling Lesnar the p4p best? they dont understand what that term means do they?

Fedor has never been submitted even against Nog.

Brock was Submitted by Mir.

Fedor is the p4p best in the world thats why we give an F about him crawl out from under your WWE comforter and wake up to reality

We have a winner!! And his name is yoyo.

Now for the sensible reply, the Black Swordsman. Here is the breakdown:

Gonzaga: His standard gameplan would not work, but he is a professional. I’d like to think he can change it. Remember, he is a world class BJJ blackbelt. Lesnar would likely want to keep the fight standing, and I don’t think he has what it takes to out box Gonzaga. As Frank Mir said, Lesnar would get to pick his poison.

Nogierra: Lesnar can’t box with him, so it would go to the ground. Lesnar couldn’t finish him in a million years with those rabbit punches and he certainly couldn’t finish him with a sub. So either the fight would go to a decision or Lesnar would tap out. Once again, the jiu jitsu pedigree is the answer.

Frank Mir: He already beat him. Enough said. OK fine..when we were watching the fight, my friends were screaming holy shit and all I was saying was wait for it. You might say that Lesnar was owning him and was never in trouble until he made a mistake. This is a fact: When you have a jiu jitsu black belt attached to you, you are in trouble. If you don’t believe me, then you’ve never sparred with one.

Verdum: Admittatly the longest shot, but still possible. True, if it becomes a slug fest, Verdum wouldn’t stand a chance. But in three fights, Lesnar hasn’t been in a slug fest. He is die hard ground and pound. That will never work against such an accomplished submission artist.

Fedor: Oh brother…why did I even say his name?? He is who he is and he’s done what he’s done. He’s beaten numerous UFC title holders including the current one (that would be Nog, not Brock) as well as a who’s who of MMA history. I don’t understand what this guy has to do to prove himself. My opinion is that he would beat Lesnar, yours is that he wouldn’t…whatever.

You know, “R”, that is an interesting and more realistic point. Light heavyweights. What would Silva do to Lesnar? Or imagine Machida or anybody quick with a good striking background? Sheesh, I’m racking my brain with this P4P garbage. If his 265 lb ass ends up on the pound for pound top ten, it will be the beginning of the end for MMA lol.

thanks for all the posts bruno, your site is great for those of us who don’t have access to pay per views, keep up it up!

You wanna know what he’s gotta do to prove himself ? FIGHT CONTENDERS 3 TIMES A YEAR! Yea he beat Nog 4 years ago … the difference is Nog has continued to fight against contenders. Fedor has done nothing except beat a washed up Tim Sylvia. Then he took the rest of the year off … now hes fighting Arlovski and that’s the stiffest test hes faced in years and that’s an indictment of the level of competition he’s faced since beating Cro Cop .. thats a fact. That’s not my opinion its the general consensus.

Well it’s not like he’s refusing to fight people. Fighting two recent UFC champions in a row isn’t exactly my idea of padding your record. Was he padding his record back in 05 when Pride ran out of people to throw at him? He clearly wants nothing to do with the UFC for some reason, and considering his attitude when he was in Pride, I doubt it’s fear.

As for Brock Lesnar, here is my take. Brock approached Dana and said that he wanted to be a fighter. Dana laughed knowing that Brock didn’t realize what he was getting himself into. Then to prove it, he put him up against a guy who had the right tools (jiu jitsu) to beat him, which he did. That wraps it up for this ambitious young buck, time to move on. But then the PPV numbers came back and Dana thought that maybe he shouldn’t flush this guy down the toilet just yet. So he put him up against a guy who has the worst possible combination to beat him, a much smaller wrestler who rarely relies on submissions. Next thing you know, “Brock Lesnar dominated an established MMA vet”. So then Dana decided to test Lesnar’s versatility by putting him up against, of course, another wrestler! But he wasn’t worried because as long as he kept him away from submission wizards, he could keep milking this forever. That being said, look for Jake O’brien to get a title shot out of nowhere, then Shane Carwin, then maybe Mark Coleman will make a comeback, aw hell let’s throw Dan Severn in there with him. By then we’ll hear MMALive going on and on about “is there anyone on the PLANET who can beat this guy???” Then as soon as the WWF fans have gotten bored and moved on to the next flavor of the month, Silva and White will put him up against a BJJ black belt and the universe will return to it’s proper balance.

those who doubt fedrs abilities have not see him fight. kevin randalman suplexes him on his head an he wins. this is the point fedor finds a way to win / has knock out power, subs, raw strength. fedor tkes 8 months off after bitch slapping silvia for what 32 secnds, so! rock has power, size and 300 little hammer fist. brock has some talent but in truth gets by mostly on stature
