Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:06
That would be awesome to see stevenson get tapped out by sanchez
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:11
Any way we can be referred to as Tater Nation instead of Potato Nation?
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:15
Me thinks Maia is about to turn Chael into a Barnie Frank democrat. Maia by any sub he wants 2 minutes into round 1.

FUUUUUUCCCK! *Punches roll up steel door* YOU FUCKING PUSSY *Roid rage*
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:23
For the FIRST time, Dana White isn't the fucking third wheel in the stare down. About fucking time!
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:29
Somebody sign Overeem already!!

Tuf Guy, I love it when you get all angry and stuff. My anus is moist right now for you, you magnificent bastard.
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:37
FUCK MY STEROID INJECTED PUSSY FOLWKES!!
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:41
Clozer, I wanna lick your taters and feed you grapes!
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:41
I'd love to take Tuf Guy home one night, but the truth is, I'd split his ass open like dried firewood. *tee hee*

Gary Shaw and his new MMA clothing company appear to be sponsoring Chael Sonnen now. With the starpower of the #1 middleweight in the world, Shaw's company could be in position to unseat Jesus Didn't Tap as the #1 MMA lifestyle company in America.

quit swinging on his nuts like Tarzan!
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:46
I think sanchez is gonna win TKO, i dont see any submissiosn in this one...just pure cabe man beating
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:48
Man it looks like that plane ride to London aged Dana horribley. I can only imagine how this will effect Joe Rogan's beard.
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:51
Sonnan is going to Knock Maia out cold... he is the best middleweight expect Matt Lindland and Dan Henderson ever... ok maybe he ties Nate Quarry,Chris Leben,Ed Herman for 3rd place... Rawr team quest..
Thu, 02/19/09 - 03:59
No way does Sonnen win this one. as much as I would like to see him get pilaged by the Spider, I don't see it happening.
Thu, 02/19/09 - 04:06
Ben Goldstein doesnt know shit about MMA if he thinks Nate even has a chance to submit Wilson
Thu, 02/19/09 - 04:09
You gotta give Sonnen a lil credit, I mean he did beat get a decision from a guy many considered a top 3 MW in Paulo Filho, that was prolly out of shape, talking to angels like he was in Max Payne, and really wasn't all there and prolly sorted a few dimes of coke. Still that had to have taken some skills to accomplish something like that, right?
Thu, 02/19/09 - 05:12
ffffrrrrrrrpppp!!!!!!!!!!!
Thu, 02/19/09 - 05:53
NO MATTER WHAT ROUND....................NO MATTER HOW................RORY MARKHAM DOMINATES AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HE IS THE FUTURE UFC WELTERWEIGHT CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thu, 02/19/09 - 06:41
I think everything looks good except the gouveia fight. No fucking way Marquardt will be able to submit him. He might be able to squeeze out a decision though, if he doesn't get KTFO out first.
Thu, 02/19/09 - 07:25
whats this T/KO bullshit. its TKO or KO they're different.

My favorite thing about swallowing loads is smelling my cum burps.

"My favorite thing about swallowing loads is smelling my cum burps." LOL, fagget.

@ Norm the angry Pollack Is this Norm from Lawton OK? Maia via tongue kiss after the last round.
Fri, 02/20/09 - 06:30
Marquart could very possibly submit Gouveia after he beats the living hell out of him for a round or three. His jiujitsu is easily at the level of Gouveia's
Fri, 02/20/09 - 07:39
When are the Bens going to have a pickem contest against each other?!?! I mean with real consequenses on the line? Ipacac, shave head, show up to the next UFC in a dress. COME ON GUYS! Pride is one this humiliation, now that is where it is at!
Fri, 02/20/09 - 07:44
Hardy by controversial split decision. Maia by whatever fucking choke he manages to dream up on the fly. Stevenson by unanimous decision.
