Time to bring this back up.
We all know what happened at Ortiz/Shamrock 3 (another thread), so I'll talk about UFC 64. Franklin looked very off in this fight. He didn't look like his usual self. Maybe it was Silva's Muy Thai clinch? Silva looked dominant, but I still don't know why Franklin fought (or lack of fighting) the way he did. UFC 65: Bad Intentions November 11 Heavyweight Championship Monson vs Sylia I pick Sylvia Welterweight Championship Hughes vs GSP I pick GSP Pride this Saturday! Can't wait to watch it. Ortiz/Lidell coming in December! I'm on my boy Tito on this one, even though I like both, I gotta go with Ortiz. |

Franklin just got rocked hard. Silva was flawless once he got the Thai clinch on. I mean every knee he threw landed dead on, and that kneee that broke Franklin's nose was just sick. In pretty much every fight Rich has been in he is used to being the one that was dominating. When Silva started dominating him in the clinch he just looked so lost.

Hey, did Silvia come from PRIDE? I've never heard of him. He comes outta nowhere and beats Rich down.

hes been in the game for a while bro...he has way more than enough credentials to beat rich: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_Silva
franklin was horrible...his footwork was awkward, his pace was rushed and impatient...but lets face it, silvas game is too solid for him...it only took silva a little bit of time before sensing rich's weakness...look how long it took rich to "feel" silva out...oh wait, he never finished...went straight from "feeling out" to survival mode... most of these UFC guys arent used to real muay thai or even kickboxing for that matter...and when i say used to and "real", i mean backgrounds of pride fc or K1 status fighters...and thats the exact reason why ive always said that wanderlei would beat rich...knees and traditional muay thai... as for tito and liddell...as much as i hate liddell, im gonna say its all him... PRIDE THIS WEEKEND!!! WOOOHOOO!!! leaving friday afternoon suckahs!!! arriving just in time for weigh ins at caesars palace and be a groupie bitch! yay!

I don't think it will be so one sided. Hughes was being a dick to him on Ultimate Fighter. I'm going to go with GSP too though.

man, i havent been keeping up with the fights.
i havent seen the fight yet. but i knew silva is a great overall fighter with the precisionass stikes in muay thai and has good bbj. thinking, he was going to be a a handful for rich but he can take him. then after hearing he got rock on the first round with a clinch and knees is just disppointing. franklin should getout pat militage camp and join tito's camp. haha. my answer to silva is brute power drilling into your face and rage! oh well, im gonna check it out in youtube. as for hughes, i hope he gets served... gsp style! btw also after checking out the ufc site that brandon vera is going to fight ufc 65 against frank mir. i hope vera wins. |

zomg! i just finished, the fight was ridiculously annoying. i think, franklin was already hurt on the first or fourth knee strike. that look on franklin is haunting. he looked like he wanted a time out, but then he realized it was an actual fight, not practice, he said to himself "oh shit". that OHSHIT look. like oh shit i didnt practice for this. he so was unprepared for a clinch like that.

Would you guys agree that Tito has probably the best ground and piund in the business? I sure think so. He's so accurate with his elbows and fists on the ground it's just crazy.

Its nice to see some more MMA fans.
I have a decent ammount of experience in MMA. http://fightingartsacademy.com/ Was my first school and I trained here for 6.5 years. MMA is probably the best thing anybody could do for themselves. Its just so practical. |

The only real flaw to Liddel's game is his conditioning. Tito has the best conditioning regimine bar-none in the UFC. I think if Tito can withstand some of Liddel's punishment early on, and then wears him out, Tito has a VERY good chance at taking Lidell down and doing his GNP that he's so good at.

When is the last time Liddell went to the ground? Does anyone know? I think if someone can get him down he'll go out like a bitch.

can't recall for sure but he has been on his back before, but he's so good at getting back up. thats one of his features that makes him such a good fighter besides his offense, his defense.

i think liddells gonna defend his title on this one...his overhead punches will eventually catch tito...not to mention liddells a pretty smart fighter; hes very patient, unlike tito...and most of his devastating hits are offensive counters...on top of that, he does have the best takedown defense so tito better shoot and pray for the best...if tito gets him down, its definitely over, but just like any bout, its still a fight...theres so many variables, anything can go...
i dont know if liddell has been on his back in UFC, but he has in pride...hes like a defenseless turtle flipped on its back...granted the bout with quinton was three years ago, liddell still doesnt really place grappling/ground game as priority in his training...tito should review the pride video and use quinton jacksons double leg takedowns...they seemed to work for him and won him that fight... PRIDE IN 2.5 DAYS!!! any one gonna be there?

Did you guys watch Ultimate Fighter last night? Man I'm so pissed Matt Serra won. He's such a douche bag. Not that Shonie Carter is much better, but at least his not a prick.
