I personally love MMA.........Just wondering if there is any fans on here.
Nick Diaz and GSP are my two top fav fighters

Love it but hard to see it over here now - lost the channel that showed it so only get the occassional fight.

Was training as a cage fighter myself when i had my accident so i can appreciate the hard work and determination that goes into their preparation.

Forrest Griffin, Anderson Silva, Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell all greats and of course Ken Shamrock and Cabbage from the old days along with Tank Abbott.

Love tank he`s an animal haha and Anderson spider Silva is a mangler he`s one of my favs too...You used to fight thats awsome, I go and spar with friends once in a while...thats about it. Although I watch it religously, might be going to toronto to see Gsp fight, and watch him stomp all over jake shields haha

Unfortunately i only got to spar - was getting to the point of arranging a "friendly" fight to see if i could take it but it never happened. The training was unreal tho - after 14 years of various weight training, circuits etc the MMA training schedule REALLY ripped my body - fat burning was phenomenal and the fitness levels.......wow!

I can't wait until GSP and Shields fight. Shields is going to find out that GSP isn't someone he can just toy with.

I like you already haha

I`m hoping it all pans out...he`s gonna stomp shields ground or stand up, and than he`s gonna bump in weight and take on the SPIDER hahah silva vs GSP that will be good!!!

belovedboas · 04-24-11, 12:16 PM

Thanks. I hope everything works out as well. I really believe that shields can't win with GSP. Who cares if he has won his last 15 fights in a row. GSP wasn't one of them lol.

As for the spider and GSP, I don't even know. I think that would be one of the best fights ever. The spider is a freaking monster. The way he makes grown fighters look like they have never fought before is just sad and I would hope that he couldn't do that to GSP but who knows. I have faith in him, but I also had faith in Lesnar when he fought cain........ and we see what happened lol.

I feel ya buddy I like lesnar too...and when cain velasques came out and just totally dominated him I was dissapointed.

I agree Shields is not even on GSPs level, great fighter but not like GSP, Goerge is a smart and very technical fighter, I think Shields is gonna shrink after a few minutes into the first round and him and Silva that WILL definitely be one of the best fights ever..I have faith in my boy!! Although Silva has the habit of those one shot knockouts. Hard striker, It will be epic haha

Love MMA GSP rocks hate lesnar gorilla with no skill throwing his weight around when and if he improves his actual mixed martial arts skills I might change my mind lol can't wait for the GSP sheilds fight.

I have to agree with ya there, i like brock but he is a good wrestler that is it. Takes em down and goes for the KO with them short burst punches or chokes em out. His stand up is awful and he`s losing on the ultimate fighter right now haha

and I can`t wait either, hopefully gonna be in the stands

A lil spider power haha

Shields doesn't stand a chance XDD
GSP's just too good.

Brock Lesner needs to learn his place... He preaches on and on about Frank Mir's submission, then turns around and uses the same chicken move with one of the greatest Heavyweights Shane Carwin.. Frank Mir probably would've won that rematch if Flop Lesner didn't smother him with his flabby body...

natedog · 04-24-11, 07:44 PM

Im actually a MMA fighter and hope to take a fight by the end of the summer, but ill chime in...

i think gsp is to good...as much as i cant stand him i have to give him his credit where its due. and i cant wait til silva gsp fight....omg orgasm.

shaunyboy · 04-25-11, 04:44 AM

cabbage had the hardest chin i've ever witnessed that mans head was made of stone and his mate penn has to be the gamest bendiest guy i've ever seen

gsp is an awsome technical fighter but silva is just unstoppable imo he is not of this world...!!

andre orlofski (bad spelling) was a favorite of mine

mat hughs although i did not like him as a person you have to respect his ability and strength

forrest has the heart of a lion and now has skills to boot

randy couture well that man is a lesson to us all that your never too old if you try hard enough

vanderly silva (bad spelling) also has the heart of a lion and a great chin

the speed of vito belfour was awsome imo and i used to love mike swick's (the swickatine) little victory dance

i could talk mma just about as much as carpets but like big rob said the uk lost the channel to view it way back around ufc 95 to 100 so were out of touch i'm afraid as i've never even seen this guy thats going to fight gsp before silva.silva has never been close to losing a round never mind a fight and although in my eyes gsp is an hounorable decent human being who can fight i'm afraid silva will despatch him like he was nothing as he has done with so many champions and great fighters before...!!

cheers shaun

Lankyrob · 04-25-11, 05:03 AM

Shauny, not sure if you get the channel "5 US"? A few weeks after teh big events they sometimes show a couple of the fights. Not great coverage but at least it is something.
