How do you go about putting on a big event?
Simple: Put Smashing Machine in the main event.:00hour
Not Fedor vs Gegard(exhibition), but Smashing Machine.

His nickname should have been stripped once he got off the roids.

Going with one play only and I love them all:
PARLAY:
King Mo over Mark Kerr
Karl Amoussou over John Doyle
Alexey Oleinik over Rogent Lloret
150 wins 222

No chance Kerr or Doyle wins.
Alexey has WAY more experience than Lloret and will get him to the ground and choke him out like he does everybody. This bet is more like a straight play on Alexey for 150 getting odds instead of giving.

Never really clicked?:shrug:
He started 12-0 in MMA and was dominate.
His big downfall was drugs and steroids.
If you have never watched the dvd documentary "Smashing Machine" then you need to. It is an excellent documentary.

It is hard to look at him now and compare him to then.
He is a fat out of shape looking guy now and was a muscle bound rock back in the day.

 

[gardenweasel]

steroids can do that to a guy...

not sure about the documentary,but seriously, it looks from here like kerr was fed a steady diet of weak to mediocre(or smallish) opponents early on and the glory train ended as soon as he started fighting stiffer opposition...

i don`t see one noteworthy win on the guy`s resume(maybe dan bobish?..lol)....

considering his wrestling accolades,that`s pretty medicore,imo...

[gardenweasel]

following ke` on his lawal/amoussou/oleiniak parlay...

 

[The Brainiac]

Lloret is legit BJJ black belt , Oleinik has close to no stand up at all , sloppy and even tho he also has a black belt only submission he really does is ezekiel choke which 99 % of the time wouldnt work against someone with legit ground game especillay in MMA with no GI cuz you see this coming from miles away . I wouldn't count Lloret out , if he has better wrestling he wins this easily .
Oleinik chokes out nobodys his whole career , 90 % of them never even heard of the submission he does . Only legit BJJ guy Flavio Luiz Moura he has fought subbed him .

[Ghost Kid]

I got Mousasi in the exhibition
That dude is my MMA hero right now

 

[Ghost Kid]

Is Kerr the guy from the "Smashing Machine" Documentary?

He doesn't even look like the same person !!!!

:scared :scared :scared :scared

 

[THE_THONG]

yeah he used to be a beast

after the fight with igor vovchanchin, seemed like everything changed for him

too much roiding?

seemed like would be a superstar and be the face of mma

 

[gardenweasel]

looks like he`s spending an inordinate amount of time on the old barcolounger....

he was physically imposing....

 

[Ghost Kid]

Only seen Llorent twice and thought he looked good but thought his opponents looked horrible.
I am not sure he can take down Alexey which will make it hard to submit him.
Alexey should be able to over power him to the ground.
Alexey stand up is crap but I don't expect this to stay standing for more than 1 minute at a time.
Both want it on the ground.
