Melendez looks sort of soft to me

I surprised by Shields...he looks ripped with more weight!

Mousasi and Mo both look great

Shields couldn't even sub Mayhem and Hendo took every thing Palahres could give. Do people actually think Shields is better than Hendo on the ground? Do they think Shields is better than a 185 pound Palahres with subs? He aint subbing Hendo unless Hendo got old over night.

mayhem might be squirrelly..but he`s an excellent fighter...i thought shields gassed late in that fight...he was holding on at the end,imo...

throw out the silva sub....that was set up with striking offense...something shields doesn`t have....

i tend to agree with this...the palhares stuff.....

wish i could pull up that bully beatdown show where shields needed to stop the bully and couldn`t....his stand -up is putrid....

but he`s soooooo good on the ground....and younger..less wear and tear...

still,you have to like henderson as parlay material....

5 rounds is a long time to keep from getting whacked....

I have to pick up my tix at will-call. I can't find anywhere what time the undercard bouts start. I've looked for 30 minutes. Anybody know? I'm guessing about 7pm local time?? :shrug:

One thing StrikeForce absolutely sucks at is fight information. You are not the first one to ask this.

Plus they have fucked over 4 fighters in last year by not having them fight. Just cancel the fight altogether. So what I am saying is sometimes StrikeForce themselves has no fucking clue about the undercard.

If UFC did this kegray would be all over it. If StrikeForce does it, kegray gives em a past.

I mean how pathetic is it when you go to the event and can't find out when the 1st fight starts:shrug:

Anyway since I am so smart........

Preliminary-card begins at 6:30 p.m. ET (5:30 p.m. CT local time)

Ok.......here are the kickserv plays. Some pay me thousands for my selections. Yep that's right thousands. But I will give them to ya for free. Why, because I am a nice guy.

That, and my picks have sucked elephant balls lately:142smilie



Parlay
------------------------------------------
Jason Miller
Gegard Mousasi
Dan Henderson

odds = $1.91 (-110) *3.5 Joe Rogans
:scared :scared :scared



Henderson is going to fuck up Shields, Shields isn't better anywhere. I don't know why people think Shields will submit Henderson? It won't happen. And Shields stand-up is about as good as Aoki, yep that bad. I just don't see where Shields can finish Henderson? Only way Shields wins is a decision, and I don't see that happening. Henderson will catch Shields, no way Shields can last for 5 rounds.

Gegard Mousasi will put Mo in his place. Mo is getting tons of hype, but he hasn't fought anybody. Yes Mo is good and everybody is licking his balls about his wrestling. But Moussasi ain't going to worry about it. Sure he'll take Gegard down, but MOUSASI WILL GET BACK UP. By round three Mo will realize he's way over his head. Gegard finishes Mo in the late rounds.

I'm pretty sure I saw Aoki at the Lynwood Mall here playing Dance Dance Revolution the other day. :shrug:

If he was crying....then yes that was Aoki

Weird. You were there too?? Yeah, he was SO CLOSE to the high score. If he hadn't pissed off his girlfriend she never would have hit him with her Hello Kitty backpack, and he would have had the record fo sho.

He'll never break Bobby Hill's record. Why even try?:shrug:

i don't evven know why people think shield is gonna dominate an olympic wrestler on the ground. hendo isnt gonna care if this goes to the ground. He much rather keep it standing but hell do some gground if he has to. Palhares is a bull on the ground and Hendo took everything he threw at him Hendo is strong as an ox. Only thing i would be worried about is a little hendo slippage which i thought i picked up his last few fights.

Record since start of 09 30-19 +31.14 units

Opinions 2-1 +3.15(always .5 unit plays)

Aoki +145 1 unit


I don't know if I would take him if this was a 3 round fight but giving him the extra 2 may help. At some point this fight will go to the ground and when it does Gilbert better try his hardest to get back up as quickly as he can. I wouldn't be suprised to see Aoki just run and fly at Gilbert and stick to him like a fly in a spider's nest.

If Gilbert wants to win he better "run Gilbert run." :director:

Opinion
Mousasi -240 .5unit

I think Mousasi will sub Mo but we haven't seen enough of Mo to know so that's why it's just an opinion. The juice doesn't scare me too much.

I am really tempted this morning to bet on Mo at over +200

I think Mousasi is an incredible talent, but I think this is more of a pick em.

Push comes to shove, I think Mousasi probably catches him in a triangle or arm bar, but I'm thinking about it

MMAJUNKIE POLL RESULTS:
With both Strikeforce (CBS) and
the UFC (Spike TV) airing events on
April 17, which will you be watching?

66% - "Strikeforce: Nashville" live on CBS
23% - I'll record one and watch the other
8% - UFC 110 replay on Spike TV
3% - Neither


My comments are why would goto a MMA site and say that you don't plan on seeing either of these cards?
Second, watching UFC 110 replay instead is bordering on comical to me.

can anyone imagine the hype if the ufc put on a card with 3 championship fights of this caliber?...for free?....

this is a f-cking monster show...

the only issue for strikeforce is,where do we go from here?...
