Silva is going to destroy Mir. Unless Mir has been rigorously been working on cardio and striking.
Hendo is fighting Mousasi too - I see Mousasi by UD or submission.
Silva's a huge dude but his striking is not very technically sound. Neither is Mir so I think it's a decent match up in the striking department. Silva plods forward so little head movement. Mir might be able to catch Silva because of that or might be able to make something happen on the ground. I haven't seen much of Silva's ground game though he's a supposed black belt. We've all seen the bones broken by Mir's ground game.

I'd take Mir on this one.

I pick Hendo against Mousasi too! Mousasi hasn't been that great to me. He hasn't lived up to his early hype and potential. The only thing in my mind is the effect on Hendo not being on the TRT. If Hendo comes to the weigh-in with some titties, then I'll change my pick to Mousasi

Nate Diaz is on Chael Sonnen's latest podcast

http://podcastone.com/chaelsonnen

This one was hilarious. Nate was either asleep or baked out of his mind during the bulk of the podcast. One word answers to everything :laugh:


That Vanilla midget is in for a rude awakening if he overlooks cruz

I don't think TJ gets past Cruz if they both come into that fight relatively healthy.



Big Foot Silva can one hitter quitter Frank for sure, but he is so slow and plodding so as one of the few Frank Mir fans I wanna think of this as winnable. But then I remember Silva also uses his size very well when he pins cats against the cage which is another way Frank finds himself losing this fight. Dammit :mad:

I'm going Mir by headkick followed by flurry of punches TKO tho :birdman:
:unsure: He's gonna get wall and stalled then beat up like the Carwin fight all over again

Mir can't lift his leg that high! I pick Mir. I think he has like a 60/40 chance only though. He gets wobbled so easily, Silva won't make the mistake of letting his recover like Noguiera. Mir wins by counter hook KO.

I was just looking at that UFC card and it really isn't that good. Not sure what i'm going to do. I def want to see Hunt vs Werdum but that's a lot of loot for one good fight. I usually buy every PPV but with the WSOF and Bellator card i'm not sure.

Especially because on Comcast if you are recording two shows at once (WSOF and Bellator) you can't watch a third show (the UFC ppv)

But i really don't like those shytty stream sites. I wish there was a really nice quality one. I know what that is usually great but it's always like 5 minutes behind real time.

Ufc cism so obvious. They either want rock hold or weidman with the title. Puke rock hold been coasting to the title. He was supposed to pound vitro put and it backfired. Got him fighting bisbing on the cusp of a title shot? fukk outta here

Now the ufc gonna knock off 1 of 2 black contenders by having jacare fight romelo and vitor gets to fight weidman? Or the winner of romelo jacare? They better not give cockhold a title for beating jizzbing.. :camby:

Ufc giving McGregor a shot for siver? Are your fukking serious? This shyt is a joke meeeeh
