Didn't Anderson Sylva take a crack at heavyweight?


I don't think he went any higher than Light Heavyweight, but I could be wrong. Even then I think it was only for one fight, against Irvin.


Funny I could've swore I heard he was going for heavyweight.

He's just testing the LHW waters for kicks, I guess.

Anyway, as far as Lesnar, he was given a title shot too early, but you know what... He won the fight. I can't take that away from him. I think the UFC wants to build him up as a star, and why not? He's a huge draw, and has created a huge amount of buzz in the MMA world. He's worth far more than any long time standing fighter to the UFC.

I think he'll only get better with time, and I think he'll shock quite a few people handling Frank Mir.

I just get a sour taste in my mouth when I think " Brock Lesnar, UFC HW champion ".

Right on. Randy's gameplan was to take Brock into deep waters, get him tired out, and take advantage. Really, Brock had a huge size and power advantage on Randy, so it was a sensible gameplan. Randy is not a huge finisher with big strikes, or a quick submitter, so I think he went in with the best possible gameplan and he was employing it perfectly against Lesnar... But hey, it's MMA, and one punch changes everything.

Griffin's tough, smart, is good on his feet and on the ground, but I have to say Silva. Griffin won't make it as easy as it always seems to be for him (Silva, that is), though.

I feel it will be a grinding fight that could go to a decision, like Silvas last 2 fights. But if Forrest pushes Silva, like he will, then I think we could see the true Anderson Silva and may get some fancy KO or TKO. Then again, Rampage rocked Froeest a couple of times, and Forrest just kept on coming. I wouldn't be surprised to see Griffin try and take Silvas legs out like he did to Rampage. Either way, this fight will be awesome.

I don't really care to much for Lesnar's shit attitude; punching doors, coming right out and stating that he doesn't respect Couture or Herring, implying that Mazzagatti (sp?) was biased against him...
if he doesn't respect his opponents, he doesn't respect the sport.
This isn't the WWE.
Fuck him, I hope Mir breaks his arm in a sub, like he did to Sylvia.
The only losses Mir has taken have been from TKO, so if he can keep out of the way of those huge fucking fists (he has reportedly improved his standing fighting, I reckon we'll see), and Lesnar opens himself up for a sub, he has a good chance.

That's right, I heard wrong, or got the weight classes mixed or something.

Absolutely fucking awesome!

That second shot was a thing of beauty. Talk about a Superman punch! Haha. Henderson is off the ground! Wicked. Hopefully Bisping will find himself humbled and get back to the guy he was when he first came into the UFC.

The mouthy jackass was definitely shut up properly. Hendo is a beast.

Fedor's contract with Affliction is up soon.
I'd like to see him take Lesnar down, and White is already talking about a Lesnar vs. Fedor match.

haha... Bisping said he was gonna knock Hendo out; everybody laughed. Because everybody knows that Henderson is one of the toughest fighters around.
I mean, look at him: you don't get a face like that from playing bridge at the local country club.

Where do you get all of these?

They are awesome though.

I won the pot for a 3rd straight month. Only $80, but that's $80 more than I had going into the day.

Thank you Dan Henderson.
