  • Calling all UFC Fans!

    So...Anyone out there as obsessed w/ MMA as I am??? Anyone can't wait to see Matt Hughes return to the top? Think he can pull off the win this time if he isn't kicked in the family jewels 3 times in the first round? Okay, so I am a little bit of a fan. It's funny because Ortiz is my other fav. and they are so opposite. So, any predictions? Will "The Natural" finally bring down the big man? What do you think?

    Can't wait to meet fellow fans!

      Re: Calling all UFC Fans!

      Hey Kristie! OMG I love MMA! My dh laughs and shakes his head at my opinions cuz well, he's a guy, but that chickie cathyjobob (we call her CJB) and I are good friends and BIG time fans of ufc!

      Ok, so here is what I think, I think Rich Franklin is going to come back from his loss with a huge chip on his shoulder, and so will Matt Hughes. I think both of them are gonna fight like they got something to prove.

      As for the Couture and Silvia fight I don't honestly think Randy has anymore to give, but I hope I'm wrong. I love Randy and always have, he is a class act. But since he retired I think he may only be doing this cuz he misses fighting. After his loss and retirement announcement, I haven't quite seen him as being the same. I don;t think he is turning into Shammrock, but is he really ready to take on a BIG guy who hasn't entertained the idea of giving up MMA? Just thinkin about it makes me sick tho', him loosing to Tim Silva? Ughhhhh........... I can't stand that guy. He looks like a big freak that has no agility. IMHO

      Anyways, so nice to meet you, hope I didn't wreak your thread with all of my opinions! But, you asked! LOL

          Re: Calling all UFC Fans!

          LOVE IT!!! Love that there are other UFC fans here. I am a BIG fan of Hughes...You should really check out his website, he is a very grounded, humble man, and that is a rareity in this sport!

          I would love to see Couture rock Silvia's world because quite frankly I am getting kinda sick of him. Okay, let's be honest, he makes me wanna barf. I think he is slow, granted, his takedown defense has improved, but there has gotta be someone that can beat this goon!

          Gotta say I totally agree about Franklin and kind of about Hughes, I do think that their personalities are different enough that they will handle their "chips" differently if ya know what I mean.

          Also think Couture is a superstar. Totally classy and dignified, just hope this doesn't turn out like Gracie's "return!"

          And Shamrock....2 words...oh, sorry if u r a fan...sell.out. Don't like him, used to a little before he sold out to "professional wrestling" but lost all respect!

          So glad to find u girls, can't wait to check in after this weekend!

          I have been addicted to MMA before it was commercialized. Been in Tae Kwon Do for years, and just got my first dan (black belt) and started competing in '04. I started teaching then too!

          Thanks for dropping by!

            Re: Calling all UFC Fans!

            Major fan here, altho I must admit I took some time off watching it cause some of my old time favs left, remember Vitor Belfort? He was my favorite fighter since I seen him day 1. Then his career took a major nose dive when his sister got kidnapped/missing, he had a perfect record up till then, then I believe he lost every fight after that happend, its too bad.

            As for the fights coming up, I like huges, hes a great fighter with a great attitude, as so is frankilin, I think they both will win. As for the couture/sylvia fight, lol I know couture is gonna win IMO. BUT the thing about that is, I really really hope sylvia wins, not because I like him, (i actually dont care for him, I think he gets lucky half the time) but I want him to win so he can face off against Mirko Cro-cop. What I wouldnt give to see Mirko just left kick him upside the head, and he can reach that high too, hes done it before! But anyways, these are just my opinions, and glad to see some UFC fans up in here!!

              Oh gawd...don't get me started. I swear UFC is on here 5x a week, my husband could have every other show/channel cancelled and just watch it and be content. drives me crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

              What's sad is i actually know all these names that you guys are talking about. and i really don't want too

              Maybe I should start a support thread for venting spouses of UFC fans

              sorry, I just had to get that out of my system.

                Re: Calling all UFC Fans!

                I just read this thread to hubby, and he would like to add that he loved how St. Pierre kicked Matt Hughes butt. He think's St. Pierre is the most talented middleweight fighter inthe ufc right now.

                I have no idea what he's talking about...I'm just taking dictation

                  Matt Hughes is one of my favorites for that reason...I have to say, he's the only topic I enjoy listening to Joe Rogan babble on about...and if he starts talking about "altitude training at big bear" one more time, I'll tear my own ears off and throw them at my tv. LOL...

                  We don't like him either...he wears his belt EVERYWHERE! Freak! I agree that he's improved alot, but it's almost painful watching his big, gawky, awkward movements...you can tell it's very difficult for him to be swift.

                  I will enjoy watching every second of both fights...I just hope that Rich was able to "get over" his loss...he seemed to take the hit hardest.

                  That was sad watching Matt whomp on Gracie...I would hate for that to happen to Randy. Tim had better leave him alone, lest we fiesty women get a hold of him...lol.

                    Hey Sadie...

                    If Matt had to lose to anybody, I'm glad it was GSP...he's an EXTREMELY talented, outstanding, well rounded fighter, and appears to be ONE H*LL of a nice guy to boot. Honey and I like him alot, although it was sad to watch Matt get kicked in the nads 3 times in a row, then get knocked out the way he did...

                            Yes, yes, yes...go beat the tar out of each other and put on a good show doin' it! Woooo hooo! LOL...




                            The only POSSIBLE thing that would make this better is if Chuck the iceman were joining in as well, but hey, even a phenom like Chuck needs some R&R!
                            This is the most loaded fight card I've seen in awhile, I must say we weren't "as excited" with the last one...
