Ohio but not a Buckeye
Exactly, his chin is his chin and even though Kongo put a blast on it Cain kept coming. What does Kongos TD defense have to do with Cains chin? So, after Cain got hit he went for the TD and you think badly of him for that?

Carwin was rocked and almost KOd by Gonzaga, Nelson was KO'd by Arvloski and they both went the full three taking big shots from JDS. So just because their chin is their chin didn't mean they where getting KOd by him.

Who's JDS fought that has the wrestling ability of Cain? NOBODY Cain is quicker than anyone that JDS has faced and that goes for his hands and his feet.

What does it have to do with it? If he could defend a take down for christs sake he would've beat Cain senseless. I'm not saying I think badly of Cain for going to the TD, I never said that. I'm just saying he's facing a different animal right now. Cain couldn't even finish a terrible ground fighter in Kongo. What do you have to say for that?

I'd say facing Carwin, Nelson, and Werdum are very formatable opponents as far as ground games go. None came close to being a threat. JDS base is BJJ, so being on his back doesn't worry me. I just don't see how Cain wins this fight unless he gets a lucky punch.

Lets not ever say Nelson was "KO'd by Arlovski." First of all, it was a TKO, big difference, and second off, a lot of people RIGHTFULLY SO question the stoppage of that fight. But I guess if we're gonna go by the books, then KO it is. But that was a Elite XC pump up Andre fight and it was referee'd poorly.

We can just agree to disagree. I just see Cain getting picked apart on the feet and constantly getting his TD's stuffed. I'll take the guy who's been there, done that, and faced some real competition in just about every fight in the UFC versus a guy who's has a relatively smooth path to the top.

All that video lacked was Kimbo and one of the guys Kimbo fought. They could have done some tag team MMA fighting. They still would have all gassed.

Not worth it's own thread but ProElite 2 tonight so a few very small plays.

Andreas Kraniotakes over Tim Sylvia
+240
Kraniotakes is a judo guy so will be hard to trip Big Tim but with the former champ anything is possible.


Travis Fulton over Andrei Arlovski
+250
This will be Fulton 307th fight and in the previous 306 fights he has only been knocked out 8 times. Arlovski is probably one of the sports most disappointing performers and really should retire.

Evan Cutts over Reagan Penn
+225
Cutts much bigger and has youth on his side. Penn has a lot of pressure due to his older brother's fame. Can he handle it?

Great news for MMA :facepalm:

Don King has made it apparent that he wants to dive into the MMA industry and go head-to-head with Dana White. It appears that Don King will cut a few promos in the Los Angeles area this month, but we're not sure for what.

forgive me if this has already been posted....but wtf is fuel t.v.?......i know a huge cable provider like comcast doesn`t carry it....

doesn`t make much sense if you`re trying to expand your brand....

I would expect comcast to eventually carry Fuel TV. They were launched in 03 and are on DTV and Dish. I expect with the UFC on board they will grow and the call for Comcast to add them will grow as well.

it would have been the same if the UFC went ahead with buying G4 (I personally think that was a bargaining tactic) that DTV and Comcast would have eventually added them

well,we`re heading toward the middle of november...and as of now, the only fuel i need is the fuel that keeps my computer chair running like a top(methane).........:D

i have to say,though,that watching on t.v. beats the hell out of having to sit in front of a computer while everyone else gives me grief for sitting in front of the "god damned computer" on a saturday night...:lol:
