Opinion: UFC 102: Couture vs. Nogueira Predictions

28 Aug 2009 13:53:39 PDT

Written by Luke Thomas
Leland Roling: While Tuchscherer is a huge, powerful wrestler who can smother Gonzaga from the top, Gonzaga is a much more dynamic striker in the stand-up game, and he has solid jiu-jitsu submission skills on the floor to put Tuchscherer in danger. I have to go with the more complete fighte...

Opinion: UFC News: Get It From the Man Who Runs the Show

04 Feb 2009 15:15:47 PST

Written by Jon Pantera
When asked about the BJ Penn vs. Florian and GSP vs. Alves fights; That's a good question. That's going to depend on how the light heavyweight fights shake out in the next couple of fights. Obviously, Keith Jardine and Rampage Jackson are fighting. Rampage is next in line for a title shot."

Opinion: UFC 92 picks, Vegas style

Here's another go at it as we try to make some money on UFC 92. We were just 5-5 on The Ultimate Fighter 8 card but went 2-1 with our highlighted picks. It's been a nice 16-2 streak on the highlighted picks dating back to UFC 88 (UFC 88, UFN 15, UFC 89, UFC 90, UFC 91, TUF 8). By the odds, after the top...

If the other agents and fighter's representatives thought they a) had a chance to get the contract provision nullified in court, b) could take down the UFC and Dana or c) possibly could prop up another corrupt MMA org with big-name fighters, I think we'd be seeing them all unite on the UFC'...

Opinion: UFC 91: Things I Realized After Watching

17 Nov 2008 11:09:28 PST

Written by Jessy Morris
5. Brock Lesnar was way too big and strong for Randy Couture. It's disappointing how fighters in that division are 220 lbs. and others are 265 lbs. The other divisions have approximately 15 lbs. separating them, so why not separate the heavyweight division in half and make a heavyweight divisi...

Randy Couture returns to a sport in desperate need of something good to happen to it. Couture has overcome obstacles at every point in his career, none more so than coming out of retirement and dominating Tim Sylvia in March 2007, to win the UFC Heavyweight title.

Opinion: Blinded by the light … er … right: Update on Heath Herring UFC 87 ‘orbital fracture’

14 Aug 2008 16:35:01 PDT

Written by Adam Wagner
Personally, I thought Lesnar looked like a child, or at least an idiot. But then again, I enjoy the Thiago Silva throat slit or even the Tito Ortiz cemetery burial from time to time. It wasn’t so much Lesnar’s rodeo roping as it was the pointing and laughing.

The fact that GSP couldn’t finish Fitch is a testament to Jon’s enormous heart. Fitch was rocked and dropped several times and consistently took a beating throughout the fight. But, he never quit and never stopped moving forward. Although Fitch displayed true spirit, GSP was never in any re...

UFC Fight Night 15 predictions, preview and analysis

10 May 2008 03:00:00 PDT

Written by Jesse Holland
This is an intriguing match-up for me because both fighters are 3-3 in the Octagon since their debuts in 2006. Are they destined to be .500 fighters or can they break out to the next level? The UFC middleweight division is stacked higher than a Jenga tower and is about as stable. If you have to sha...

I feel bad for Houston. I know a lot of people are disappointed but I guess I have a PRIDE mentality when it comes to him because I'll support the guy no matter what.
