The mohawk dude is so funny. Always crying and freaking out. His pregnant GF works two jobs while he bums around, and he admits it openly like it's nothing to be ashamed about. Dude is pure entertainment.

He is entertaining, but I'd still like to punch him in the mouth. Of course this action would not end well for me, but still. Lol

How big are they this season? Fun hypothetical...how far down in weight classes would I have to go to be able to best the average UFC fighter? I'm 200 lbs, and can hold my own...at some point the guys are small enough for me to fall on and just pound. 125 lbs? 135 lbs? I'm thinking my threshold is right around 145-155 lbs.

An honest answer? 125lbs in the women's division. Lol The guys might be small enough to fall on, but their bjj would get you. Plus you would have to catch them first. Lol The average UFC guys are elite. And if you watched the first UFC's, big guys with no experience got ate alive by actual fighters.

For me personally. I would only get in the cage with 3 fighters, Gina Carano, Felice Herrig, and Miesha Tate. I think the reasons for my choices are fairly obvious. Lol

Gina Carano and Miesha Tate... yummy.

And after looking up Felice Herrig, her too.


Did Meisha Tate have a nose job? Some of her pictures aren't flattering. Probably never noticed because I was looking a the fit bod. I just don't remember her having a big shnoz...

Quite frankly... her face doesn't look attractive at all in the second picture. This has me confused because I recall her being very hot.

Now that's hot... did she have a nose job or is that a photoshop?

D*mn I never saw the old nose, definitely a nose job. It looked like the last pic, the last time I saw her fight. I think anyway, the rest of her is very distracting. Lol

Edit: the middle pic doesn't even look like her.

Dont know if anyone else heard this, but Jones said he is moving to heavyweight by 2013. Dana said Jones vs Silva will definitely happen, negotiations are ongoing.

Fair enough, though I was never really excited about that fight to begin with. Silva said he'd take the fight.....for half of the UFC.

BTW, do you really believe that? I'm not saying I wouldn't ever get caught in a knee-bar, but in most cases I think being that much bigger than a guy you can just own them. Brock Lesnar owned the HW division simply because of physical dominance, and that was against people in his own weight class. If I outweigh a dude by 75 lbs (more than 1/3 of my weight), and I'm in good shape, I'm pretty sure I'm winning. The cage and an extreme reach advantage makes them "catchable", IMO.

The thing with Brock is for his size, he is a freak athlete. Guys that big just don't move like that, and he was a great wrestler. Couple questions I guess, do you have any MMA training, were you at least a high level wrestler in high school. The thing about holding these guys down, just being a guy off the street is they know how to feel every little weight shift. And they don't just roll with guys their size. The practice against guys bigger than them, so that it's easier against guys their size. You gotta remember these guys are top flight athletes that have been doing this for years. I'm 170, boxed for 4 years been taking bjj for a year and a half. No way in the world I beat a guy that weighs 120. Not being an a$$ but its kinda funny when guys think they can beat these guys, no matter the size.

Edit: maybe and I stress maybe if you would have said a small guy in a small promotion. But the UFC is a different story.

Then again I could just be unreasonable in my assessment. Would like to hear what the rest of our resident UFC guys think.

No, I like an honest answer. I don't know if I'm just completely out of my mind or not, but I just can't see it. I didn't wrestle or anything. I just consider myself a tough dude. The weight difference is over half their body size. That's so much to overcome.

I understand your thought process, and you could possibly be right. I've just grappled with guys that I've looked at and thought, well this will be easy. 30 seconds later I was in an armbar.

Which happens first, Jones vs Silva or Pacquiao vs Mayweather?
Click to expand...

Considering I feel like one guy is afraid of losing, and hurting his "legacy" And honestly a little afraid of the other guy period, one of those fights will never happen.

That being said, I think Jones vs Silva happens. UFC guys dont get a lot of chances at the money that fight could bring them.

These guys are trained machines, i can't see an amateur with no training winning against a UFC fighter. Best example....Kimbo Slice

Nice example, I remember when people were going Kimbo crazy. Dude was a joke.
Always wanted to see Kimbo vs Tank for some reason though.

I was on the Kimbo train till i saw him get knocked out by a guy with pink hair lol

Seth Petruzelli if I remember correctly, in what 16seconds or something. That killed the Kimbo train for a lot of people I think. Lol

Which fight do you think will happen first? I fear the only way we see Floyd and Manny is 5-7 years from now, both washed up and needing money.

Yeah it was a fast fight, dude was terrified and he hit Kimbo while he was trying tp back away or something. I rememver hearing people say it was a setup. Wasnt Kimbo supposed to fight Ken Shamrock but he had an eye injury or something?

And i don't think we will ever see either fight but better chance of seeing Jones/Silva. Mayweather wants no part of Pacman, IMO.

Do i remember correctly that supposedly if GSP and Silva were to win their last few fights, Dana said there would be a GSP/Silva fight? Then GSP got hurt and Silva faught Sonnen again and the talks of that went away?
