I disagree....Rashad's style actually poses for an interesting, but potentially boring fight. Rashad isn't typically over-agressive.

Rashad has earned my respect, as has Machida....I just hope this fight doesn't become boring like I think it could.

Can't see Browning winning this fight at all. Just to inexperienced in my opinion for Cole. Cole submission game is pretty good and Browing gets submitted. Jeremy Stevens in my opinion has a some of the top hands in the business and Cole dealt with them almost the whole fight. Browning has decent hands but nothing like Stephens.

i don`t know,spongy...wasn`t miller getting pwned for 3 rounds before slapping a very late sub on pedestrian jorge gurgel?....stopped by stephens....

really doesn`t have any "great" wins...

and truthfully,as much of a douchebag as browning is,he looked awfully impressive in his first fight after training with a reaL,PROFESSIONAL CAMP....

if he can get mentally tougher,he`s very talented....

tough fight to call...browning gets bet down a little farther,i may take a small shot with him...

btw..kampmann now -130 over condit.......:scared

Yes, Rashad has earned my respect as well. I've had three extremely large bets against him and didn't win one. Tito pushed so no big deal but I lost tons and I mean tons of money with Chuck and Forrest.

Another tidbit regarding Machida/Evans...... i'm not sold on Evans' cardio.. there were points against Bisping and Tito where Evans seemed to get lazy.

Also, it's hard to knock out a guy that almost never gets hit cleanly, so if it goes to decision i dont see how Rashad wins it. He has proved me wrong before, though...... :cool:

I don't think anyone has talked about it yet and I didn't know until today but Frank Shamrock and Nick Diaz should be a war. I have to say I'm looking very foward to this fight.

Strikeforce wants Kimbo.. kegray will rejoice!

?I feel I am the perfect candidate for this fight. Shamrock thinks he can beat guys with styles like me?. I don?t care about the weight. I feel more energetic. My strength is great. I hit harder. I like this fight because I will be able to control what goes on when we?re on the ground?. Frank can talk all he wants, but I?m going to beat him up. Let?s see how much he fights back.??

? Nick Diaz shows his respect for mixed martial arts legend and upcoming opponent, Frank Shamrock, at today?s press conference in California to promote the April 11 event on Showtime. Diaz and Shamrock have been tapped to collide in the main event at a catchweight bout of 179 pounds, setting up a grudge match between two big local stars at the HP Pavillion in San Jose, California. This is more than likely just the start of a war of words that will undoubtedly boil over when fight night finally arrives.

He looked good but lets face it he was in with a stiff. Just don't think its the right time for him. too early. As for Conduit. To me it seems like as soon as these WEC guys move up they get manhandled in the UFC. There might be a reason they are down in triple A aka wec.

Someone should atleast get a suspension out of the ordeal. I'm not sure I'd rule it a no-contest, but I'm also not sure you can deny he doesn't have a case for the no-contest.

For some reason, I don't think you'd be saying the same thing had someone else been accused of greasing, or if StPierre and Team Jackson accused someone else of greasing when they fought.

Not sure how you just love to sweep something that's clearly against the rules under the rug.

Man was speeding, didn't know it because he didn't look at the speedometer. Man gets pulled over, officer tells man he was speeding and it's against the law. Should man go unpunished because he didn't know he was breaking the law???

I agree with you Bucs something needs to happen if there was some vaso on his shoulders. If anyone wonders what it will do, go for a run and get real sweaty and then put on a little vaso and see how slippery it is. I don't think it would have made a difference in the fight but that's a big part of Penns game on the ground and his legs slipping would be a big deal. I DO think GSP would have broken thru the high guard no matter what but that doesn't make it ok. I'm not saying GSP even knew about it either.

Actually besides kicking the corner guy out, what can they really do?
