UFC 100 on TV!

let me think about this .. you may have a point ... I gut tells me White will just put him straight in against Lesnar

[JohnDoe]

Fedor will face Lesnar in his second match. White will give him one match to get the feel of the cage.

He'll get a tune up fight against someone to get used to fighting in the cage as its hugely different to the traditional ring.

My money would be on him fighting Couture before Lesner (presuming that Lesner gets through the winner of Carwin and Velasquez) that would be a huge money maker in its own right - and let's be honest, that's all that matters to the UFC.

Fedor also has to get through Barnett at the next Affliction - that should be a good fight for him but he should win as long as he trains properly. After that his Affliction contract is up and he is a free agent again, so if it is going to happen that will be Dana White's window of opportunity.

Cain Velasquez is a very good fighter and could give Lesnar a run for his money, he's got very good take downs and his ground and pound is pretty good too, in his last fight he absolutely annihilated Cheick Kongo and he's a big guy. They're both very raw fighters which could make for an interesting fight though.

You know what you might be right and it will be against some ****ehouse like Keith Hearing

I was thinking the same

This sorta summarizes my feeling towards UFC quite well:



They always end up talking about one fighting style up against another, and they end up on the floor like a school fight every time.

[FatTony]

it's easy to think that initially, but once you start getting into it there really are a lot of styles and tactics. Some fights, like the Lesnar fights, do end up in ground and pound (although a lot more to it than a simple school fight), but these are few and far between. I suggest you watch an archive of fights from Anderson Silva, Frank Mir, GSP, Jackson, Liddell and Fedor.

Your probably right about it, just seems to end up in dick-punching the few times I have seen it - but there is hopefully more to it.

But don't really have any channels showing it, so I'll stick to that version for now - also a lot funnier

Is he any relation to Heath Hearing?

Not sure but would he be any relation to Heath Herring?

Josh Barnett has failed another drug test, meaning he has been denied a license for the Fedor fight at the weekend. Rumours suggest Vitor Belfort will be stepping in to receive the beating from Fedor instead.

Barnett is a juicer - once is forgiveable but failing twice for anabolic steroids is lame. Exactly the same as when he was stripped of the UFC heavyweight belt a few years back.

[Nicey]

Hes a pretty **** fighter too, relies on his size a lot and most just lies on people ... Was always a tubby ******* in Pride .. and then Suddenly he firmed up .. I say Firmed because I have never once seen him ripped .. Another **** heavy weight ..

The Era of the Heavy Weight in any sport has long long gone
