Hope its true

Matt Serra vs. Matt Hughes
Chuck Liddell vs. Wanderlei Silva
Lyoto Machida vs. Rameau Sokoudjou
Dean Lister vs. Jordan Radev
Rich Clementi vs. Melvin Guillard

Lyoto Machida vs. Rameau Sokoudjou is official. UFC signing Soko is great. I really didn't think that was going to happen. Maybe the UFC was worried that Machida was going to decision his way to a title shot.

Anyway, can't wait for it. This card makes up for Bisping/Evans being the main event at 78

The thing about 78 is the main event may be the worst fight of the night. The undercard matches look great.

Karo Parisyan vs. Ryo Chonan
Akihiro Gono vs. Tamdan McCrory
Joe Doerksen vs. Ed Herman
Marcus Aurelio vs. Luke Caudillo
Houston Alexander vs. Thiago Silva
Frankie Edgar vs. Spencer Fisher
Michael Bisping vs. Rashad Evans
Thiago Alves vs. Chris Lytle
Jason Reinhardt vs. Joe Lauzon

Not a lot of big names, but tons of great matchups. Edgar/Fisher, Alexander/Silva should be amazing. Alves is fighting, Lauzon is the man, Herman is fun to watch, etc etc etc. It should be a great card top to bottom, just no big name main event.

Going to Strikeforce tomorrow at the HP Pavilion. My buddy got us 4 2'nd row seats because he made some sales to the Pavilion's marketing director, and he hooked us up for free! Can't wait!

That's pretty cool=) Buentello always puts on good fights, and he's fighting Overeem who finally moved that gigantic body of his up to HW, be interested to see how he does without having to cut a ton of weight. Cung Le is fighting and he's crazy fun to watch with all those spin kicks and axe kicks and shit. And it'll be cool to see the dude who owned Matt Hughes twice in under a minute combined(Hallman). Good shits.

Very true, I'm expecting to see alot of exciting fights come out of 78. I just hate Bisping, and to a lesser extent Evans. No way should those two be headlining an event especially after their last fights. Hopefully Bisping will get destroyed.

God willing...

I've actually come around on Evans since he was on TUF. He seemed to realize the showboating shit was retarded and fights serious when he's in the ring. And besides the Tito fight, where he just looked way way too nervous until halfway through the 3rd, he's started fighting for the finish instead of the decision. And then there's this from an interview with him.

Quote:

LC: You still get some criticism from some people about not finishing fights. Bisping made some comments recently that criticized you for the same thing. How do you really see this fight ending?

RE: I see me in mount on top of Bisping, pounding him out. I think I'm going to wear him out and ground and pound him out. It takes hell of a lot of nerve for someone like Bisping to criticize anybodies fighting. I've never been impressed with any of his fights. He finds ways to wins, but in each of his fights he could have definitely lost. When he fought Eric Schafer, I thought he fought a horrible fight. Then he gets on the cage screaming and saying how everyone at 205 better watch out, and it was a shitty fight. I'm like is this guy serious? Then he fights Hamill, and gets his ass beat for 2 rounds and he gets on the cage again! Then he gets on the mic talking shit, and I hear he went off in the press conference. He's just a classless fucking piece of shit, fuck him.

Other news, rumors flying that Fedor may or may not fight in Japan on New Years. Sounds unlikely.

Evan Tanner apparently sobered up long enough to sign a 4 fight contract with the UFC, here's hoping he stays sober and doesn't get those stupid fucking cornrows in his hair again. WAR Tanner.

Josh Barnett finally showed back up, he's doing some catch wrestling match with a dude named Sato on a Pancrase show on december 22nd. Wish he'd get back into the MMA ring=/

...and Soko vs. Machida is confirmed

Holy shit! he's fighting Mr. Myagi's enemy from Karate Kid 2!

I hope Evans beats the shit out of Bisping.

Best fights will be the Parisyan, Alexander, and Edgar fights (and those are my picks!)

If anyone can give Machida trouble it's a heavy handed striker. But my homie Machida will pull it off. He needs a real finish to prove himself and to shoot up in the ranks.

I have heard Sokoudjou has been training his ground game with Dan Henderson AND Jason Miller as of late. So I wouldn't be surprised if he tries to take Machida to the ground. But I doubt that is the case. I'm guessing he is just reinforcing his defense, and the fight will be mostly from a distance with peppering jabs and leg kicks with the random big high kick and hooks thrown in.

Fedor · 11-16-2007, 11:31 PM

God damn I hate Cung Le.

Disp · 11-17-2007, 02:23 PM

Cung Le kicked some ass. And it was crazy watching Sean Salmon get taken out on a stretcher. Was awesome going to my first MMA fight especially so close.

Haalen · 11-17-2007, 02:40 PM

My guesses:

Evans beats Bisping (TKO) - I just want to see Bisping get wrecked
Chonan beats Karo (Dec.) - tough call, but I see him outlasting Karo
Edgar beats Fisher (Sub.) - I guess I'm just super impressed with his win over Griffin. I'm thinking heel hook for some reason.
Houston A. beats T. Silva (TKO) - I haven't seen enough of either of these guys so this really is a big guess, but either way it should be a quick fight
Doerkson beats Herman (Dec.)
Lytle beats Alves (Dec.) - just feels like Lytle for some reason
Gono beats McCrory by boring him and everyone in the crowd into submission
Marcus Aureillio (W)
Lauzon (W)

Now its 2007, so just take all my guesses and bet the opposite and you'll probably make money.

Jooka · 11-17-2007, 02:53 PM

I hope Evans just mauls Bisping. Cant stand that guy.

Necrath Evilcraft · 11-17-2007, 05:54 PM

I hope Bisping stays undefeated until a Hamill rematch THEN he gets wrecked. I still want justice from that bullshit.
