MMA General Discussion Thread

Well Sonnen lost and is getting his crack at Jones. Plus Belfort brought it, int he first round, against Jones before losing. But Belfort has been ripping through folks so I could see if he can beat up on Bisping then if its vicious enough he can get another crack but if its a decision he'd prob be one more big win away.

 

[Troy]

Lombards basically an Aussie based fighter or at least the Aussies have claimed him as one of their own, no one really cares about Sotrop though.

I think that Mark Hunt is more of an Australian than Lombard. Australians still care about Sotiropolous simply because he is the best fighter that Australia have at the moment.

Bisping vs. Vitor Belfort rumored to co-main event UFC 156.

Put up or Shut up time for Bisping.

Great opportunity for Bisping and surely if he wins that he gets a title shot.

 

[Slim]

Hopefully Belfort will fight for longer than 1 round.

Hunts a New Zealand born Samoan...so yes the Aussies have claimed him.

Lombard used to live and fight in Australia, he's spent half his career fighting in Australia which is why the Aussies have claimed him as well. Sotrop is actually born in Australia I think but nobody cares about him.

Hunt lives and trains in Australia as well, I think he still trains in Sydney. Sotrop was born in Australia but only Australian fans care about him.

Yeah Hunt lives and trains in Sydney, he was huge back when he won the 2000 K1 GP, crazy to think he's still going at a pretty good level. Te Huna lives and Trains in Australia as well, but they're both Kiwis that the Aussies try to claim...

Bonnar announced his official retirement today.

 

[Slim]

Well dang. Although his time was coming soon. Still... dang.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Yeah first it was Tito, then Florian now Bonnar, hoping that Griffin follows in their foot steps this year later on this year.

 

[Embrace Thou Maryse]

Yeah Hopefully Forrest retires soon, same with the Nogs, Wandy and Shogun.

 

[Slim]

Shogun still has time on him. Wandy... needs a fight to go out on. The Nogs... well they can still go a little while longer. Forrest... retire.

 

[Embrace Thou Maryse]

Shoguns just such a shadow of what he once was, he doesn't even try to use skill anymore he just headhunts and eats shots because he cant be bothered blocking anymore. I suppose the Nogs are good gatekeepers in their respective divisions.

 

[Slim]

A lot of them are shadows of what they once were. Look at his style. It is a style to get abused. I mean yeah after his fight with Vera it was like... oh wow time to make a serious change. But the guy can still put on an exciting fight like he did against Hendo. So its like... depending on what version of Shogun we see we could see either a fight of the year or just a meh fight.

Bader's is ridiculous.

Can't forget Arianny, not really a costume but still fun to look at. Rest of the photo shoot is in the Woman Of the World section if you're interested.
