Opinion: What's all the fuss about: UFC 90

27 Oct 2008 20:38:11 PDT

Written by mma_dude
I really don't understand all the criticism of either Cote or Silva. And I was actually impressed with Cote. Does he have any chance of beating Silva -- No! But he did frustrate Silva and he has one hell of a chin. It was the chin that was most frustrating for Silva, in my opinion. I mean, we have alw...

Opinion: UFC 91 Couture vs. Lesnar: Randy Has No Chance...or Does He?

22 Oct 2008 22:39:00 PDT

Written by Brian Oswald
Who can forget UFC 68 and that first punch. Eight seconds into the fight he sends Tim Sylvia reeling to the mat. Randy went on to control the 6’8" fighter with effective striking and numerous takedowns. The win made Couture the first three-time champion in UFC history.

Opinion: What Makes DREAM so Damn Entertaining?

26 Sep 2008 12:30:02 PDT

Written by mma_dude
No Elbows: a fighter cannot just hang out in someone's guard -- throwing elbows, causing only superficial damage and delaying some kind of finishing maneuver. If you like blood and stoppages due to blood, then you probably like elbows. DREAM bouts are less bloody (in my opinion this is neit...

Thumbs way up. There wasn't a bad match on the show, everyone I wanted to win, did, andthe outcomes were, in some cases, better than can be reasonably expected. Any one ofthese fights was more enjoyable than Jackson/Griffin, which I've watched a couple oftimes now and just don't get. Anyway. B...

A teep is a jab kick specific to Muay Thai. What Boetsch was throwing last night was not a jab kick. It was a straight heel kick and it likely comes from his Jeet Kune Do training. I realize both kicks look similar but there are some noticeable differences and the purposes of both kicks are differe...

The Ultimate Fighting Championship, UFC for those not hip to the lingo, failed to make a dent on any mainstream sports outlet over the Holiday weekend. Perhaps it was because of the Giants vs. Patriots game on Saturday, which just happened to be the same night the pay-per-view was being broa...

Many thought Quinton “Rampage” Jackson would be taken down by Dan “Hollywood” Henderson, but tonight I really noticed how much Rampage has matured as a fighter. Where does he go from here? How about Rampage/Rua II? That’s assuming Forrest Griffin doesn’t throw a wrench in the works at UFC...

Written by UFC Junkie
I think that once they restructure PRIDE and adapt all the same weight classes and the same rules as the UFC and make it universal, I think it’ll be good for the sport first of all. It’ll give everyone a deeper understanding of one set of rules and one set of weight classes.
