harbour wants marcus to go down hard haha

That’s for “hmmm” since I did not direct that at anyone.

Not to rain on your rather humorous parade, but when the emperor gave Thumbs down it meant that the loser was to live. Thumbs up meant Kill the Chump. Common historical inaccuracy perpetuated by media.

Personally, I think Davis is overhyping the fight the way he is because he is scared to be outclassed on the ground by Lytle. Davis is trying to create a situation where even if Lytle takes it to the ground and wins, he still loses in the fans eyes. Davis is just trying to cripple Lytle by shaming him into removing some very effective parts of his game. Davis has increased his overall MMA skills, but he is still outmatched by Lytle in some areas, and I think he is scared to engage in an actual MMA match with with Chris.

My money is on Lytle:
1st round by triangle choke….But this WILL be a legendary fight…when an engaged and quite embarassed Davis gets drunk and murders a leprechaun (who was silly enough to stand and trade).

@Ted nutmeg

ooooh, zing!

I think we all know what Marcus Davis’ pick-up line really is:

“Sup. You chicks like to stand and bang?”

the only thing that would make this legendary is if davis submits him by anal rape.

Fuck you Cagepotato! Who do you think your are Gene Siskel? I’m legendary, maybe you havn’t seen High School High. Suck my balls

Stupid. But, whatever. No offense, but I’d rather watch Dustin Hazlette sub Marcus Davis in 30 seconds with a modified darce choke, than watch Davis and Lytle “bang” for 15 minutes.

Ironically enough I heard Jon Lovitz will be the special referee for this match with Daniel Stern in Davis’ corner and Jack Palance in Lytles corner.

One good punch and the fight is over, I’ve seen this case many of times.

@Alex

I agree. It seems like Davis is trying to use some form of child psychology to get this fight to go the way he wants. I can see him now “C’mon Chris, we will be legends, you and me. Just don’t shoot, or throw me, or take my back, or attempt submissions of any kind… and the people will love us!”.

Smith/Sell was the TUF finale right? I remember the fight and yea the ending was great. However, I don’t think it was the greatest war I’ve seen.

i think you are referring to the Scott Smith vs. Pete Sell fight…where Sell nails Smith with a crushing body blow and he cringes and fades back….then cocks back and throws a mad right and catches Sell on the pounce and knocks him the F**k out……

I endorse this fight under these circumstances

1. Both men must take a minimum of 3 cycles of horse steriods
2. It is a fight to the death
3. Dana White will sit on a throne of golden whores WHILST eating a turkey thigh and being fed grapes. In the event of a TKO/ submission he is required to give the thumbs up/down to decide the losers fate
4. In the event of a thumbs down,the winner must rip and eat the heart from the defeated’s chest
5. There will be no decisions, if the fight surpasses the 5th round the men, who knowingly have disgraced themselves and the sport, will commit Seppuku.

Under only this circumstances do I believe this fight will be of epic proportions.

This is what Chris Lytle did with the last guy he fought. I forgot what the guys name was, but it was a great fight. Can’t wait for this one.

“Kind of like “City Slickers II: The Legend of Curly’s Gold.” Not a bad film, but under the crushing weight of expectations following the original “City Slickers,” it seemed like a letdown. Not to mention, Jon Lovitz as Billy Crystal’s brother? Come the fuck on, know what I’m saying?”

LOVITZ’D

I predict Davis shoots for a double leg three seconds into round one.

If someone tried to browbeat me into keeping the fight standing like marcus davis has, I’d chonan his ass in the first minute

you can’t plan a “legendary fight” *sigh*

How about if they agree to have 3 solid rounds of roshambo? Now THAT would be legendary!

Exactly Bonnar/Griffin was legendary because it had a huge impact on the sport. Not because they had huge names and star power at the time.

Davis/Lytle has neither star power, or any real apparent significance to the sport. Unless one of them does something completely wrong for the sport, like cheating or something I don’t see it having a huge impact on MMA.

The most they can expect for is a fight that could make an entire highlight real. But that’s not legendary it’s just a great fight.

I hope marcus goes down hard in the very first exchange.

I think he has Bonnar-Griffin 1 in his mind…but that was amazing because it was the first mma a lot of American’s were exposed to.

remember that amazing fight between jake shields and pete sell i think, that ended with that knockout puncho from shields? that was one of the best fights i have ever seen, and i really don’t see this fight getting any better than that one. Don’t get me wrong, it was amazing but its always more exciting for me to see a finish like fedor on coleman you know? or the fight with fujita.
those where as good as they get, and fedor will be remembered but not just because of what he did in 1 fight…
thinking that you will be remembered because of 1 amazing fight is dumb.
i hope he proves me wrong

@Player from the south
Bonner and Griffin fight was legendary because of what it did for the sport. They weren’t really nobody’s they had plenty of exposure to mainstream fans. Then what they did really opened up the sport and the UFC.

This fight won’t be epic because really it’s not too significant for the sport. It maybe a great fight. I love seeing 3 rounds go to a very difficult decision based on tons of action. The main fight that comes to mind for this is a fight posted here a while back. I think it was DREAM or Sengoku. I’m not sure, but it was also in a the lighter weight classes I think.

I’m gonna laugh when MD subs him the first two minutes with a heel hook.

Special guest referee… Jorge Gurgel!

STOP HYPING IT! It’s obviously going to be a great fight, gentleman’s agreement to stand or no, so just let it happen!
The more you hype it the higher everyones expectations will rise!

not necessarily , look at the Stephan Bonner and Forrest Griffin first fight . now that fight went down as legendary fight,and they were nobody’s at the time . but i can see what ur tryin to say, ijust hope its a good fight … i pick the Irish hand grenade

Conspiring before a fight to keep it standing? I want an investigation!

This is dumb and ridiculous.

So it’s gonna be a work? I’m kidding, I won’t acuse these guys of a work.

I don’t see it being legendary if they stay standing. I see either a quick knockout or maybe just a lot of action, but nothing legendary. To be legendary, they have to be legendary fighters.
