Daniel listen to icemania!

he’s given u facts

So, according to your math, Houston Alexander is 12.5% better of a fighter than Anderson Silva. Please explain your math

you can’t predict fights with math. in MMA, anything can happen. What about the underdog Jardine who defeated Liddel and if you do the math and you say Liddel will win but actually Jardine did. you think Sandman gonna win every fight with a 8 second KO? Silva’s is more skilled and smarter than Alexsander. Alexsander’s just an overated powerpuncher. if Sandman wins, your timing and outcome prediction will be wrong and the outcome is a ko more than 8 second which ends in between 1-3 rounds or maybe there will be a sub or desicion who knows. doesn’t take an Einstein to figure this out. math crap don’t work. I like Silva to win but i don’t mind if Sandman wins either way i like them both.

i hope it’s a tactical battle on their feet even if it becomes a brawl i don’t care..as long as they put on a great show. but nobody can brush irvin aside..he still poses a great threat for being a former heavyweight champ now fighting at LHW. silva will be slightly slower but will still have those accurate strikes. anyway goes a very exciting fight. silva TKO end of 2nd round.

I hear that Irvin is a plus 700 DOG! I believe Silva will win the fight but with those odds, a small bet on Irvin (very small is warranted) because he does have BIG KO power in his hands, knees, feet…. Why nhot bet $10 on Irvin to win back $70…that is a good risk worth taking, even though I will be shocked if Silva looses. As much asd the UFC has tried to overshadow Affliction, I am MUCH MORE excited about Affliction than I am at the UFC’s pathetic attempt to rain on there parade!

With those odds I will be putting some money on Irvin. Anything can happen and I don’t think he should be that much of a dog.

john: make sure you don’t cry this time ok?

rp, out of curiousity, what are your predictions for upcoming events? Try to analyze things so we can see your point of view instead of simply making fun of other people’s posts and making “cry” jokes. If you truly have more MMA knowledge than others on here, please share it.

He has a crush on me I think! He is likie obssessed with every word I say…thats one creepy Kat with nothiong good to say. I wonder if he even follows mma or if he thinks this is just some chat room….DORK!

LOLOL.

I don’t know if silva is the limits of an evolved and complete fighter, but I can’t think of anyone who is better all around than the spider. how can you make an example out of hughes? he was a great fighter and was on top for a long time, but he did not have a great stand up game and did not have a great bjj game either. he was a great wrestler that transitioned good into mma with a few good submissions too. one dimensional means you’re good at one thing (ie hughes at wrestling), how is silva one dimensional when he has pretty much learned mastered all parts of the game? Where is he bad at? in the ground? standing up? you tell me…

Linx: u shouldnt even waste your time arguing with someone who thinks that anderson Silva is 1 dimensional!

Hughes, TIto…those guys are 1 dimensional….silva is the best in the GAME, who can in by KO, or with his grappling….nothing 1 dimensional about him!

I never said he was one dimentional. read what I said if you can’t see the logic in it.

And Linx,
you say not to compare him to huges. Hughes was a great wrestler, grest BJJ, (maybee you havent seen many of his fight, but at end most of his wins came by submision). but his stricking was average. Silva has great striking and BJJ but average wrestling. …..Oh and look a their records in his time he was the most hughes was one of the most evolved fighter like silva is now.

but who knows maybee you right and I don;t know what I’m talking about.

sorry about the typo’s.

yeah, you don’t know what you’re talking about, sorry :)

D’oh, my bad. I think White fought Liddell before he won the LHW belt, not after. Either way, Bisping, Cote, Kampmann and Leites will all be credible title opponents at MW in the next year or two, so I doubt Silva will do much fighting at LHW unless Dana really needs him.

LOL, I think the original poster was referrring to if Irvin wins. Then when I saw the beginning of your 2nd post, I thought you realized it….

I don’t agree with Chuck getting the next crack after he kills Rashad, but I think that will be his first defense and IMO he has a really good chance in that fight. If it is Wanderlei, Machida, or Thiago he is in big trouble.

I laugh every time I read your new name. I am a nice guy so I will give you a good opportunity to get out of it sooner than 1 month. Double or nothing. I will let you have Anderson and I will take Irvin. So if Anderson wins we are even and you can change your name back. If Irvin pulls off a crazy upset, 2 months.

lmao, no doubt you are a nice fellow. But if I’m putting another month on the line, you got to give me two weeks of you going through this. so what do you say? If irvin wins I’ll do my second month no problem, but if silva wins you have to do your two weeks… Let me know.

No way I am betting agaisn’t the Spider. I was just trying to give you a chance. Sorry man. I think he will destroy Irvin. That is the reason I was giving you the option. You won’t have to do the 2 months because Silva will not lose!!!

I’ll take it back than BNF, still time? :P

If anderson wins I get my name back, otherwise you don’t need to change your name.

Okay… You got it. I will be rooting for you. That would really suck if Irvin hits him with a superman and he goes to sleep… LOL.

yeah but irvins career was started at HW so he’s got a distinct size advantage,it’s gonna be a better fight then people think james is no pu$$y, and i would like to see a hendo vs irvin fight it’d actually be a damn good one

no doubt irvin is a legit opponent and there is always that small chance of a puncher’s chance, but just because he came from HW doesn’t mean he’ll have a reach advantage towards the spider, anderson is pretty tall, so much so that I think their around the same height. irvin may be bigger than anderson in the muscle division, but anderson is usually slimmer than his oponents (even in the MW division). watch for andersons punches and knees, that will be a factor here.

IMO..regardless of a 15 or even 20lb difference. Silva will Drug Irvin. Silva is the best pound per pound fighter in the galaxy.

It isn’t clear cut that James Irvin has better striking than Franklin, Hendo, or Leben.

He pulls a superman punch and a flying knee out of his anus and he is all of a sudden world class? I think not.

I was just looking at Irvin’s record and his previous fights…

Notable Opponents:

Early in his career, he KO’d Scott Smith

UFC debut at UFC 51, got KO’d by Mike Kyle

Then he went to WEC and KO’d The Rhino Doug Marshall with a knee.

Next was the flying knee against Terry Martin. At that point, everyone knew who he was.

However, inbetween UFC fights, he lost a decision to Lodun Sincaid. Ouch…

Also, in 2006, he fought Bobby Southworth in Strikeforce and it was ruled a no contest, because, and I quote, “No Contest (Both fighters fell from the cage)”

LOLOLOLOL – WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??

if you read the earlier interview with James Irvin he briefly describes the Southworth fight.

Gracias. I was just about to finally read it!

Yeah, thats what I am worried about violentmike…I worry that Fedor will just quickly submit Tim and call it a night….I want to see his TOP OF THE LINE ground n pound with some elbows in it raining down on Tim’s Face….If Couture messed his face up that bad, can u imagine what Fedor could do to his face if he wants to punish Sylvia before taking him out of his misery with the armbar!

when is the last time you saw this amazing ground and pound on a top 5 fighter, mmm… how many years was that?

Fedor has alot to prove. and Tim is still in the top 10 if not top 5 and has been active.

The others are all over the hill, Believe that. Either because of age or being inactive.

These fights will be slow and hard to watch.

Ok, so I guess Fedor forgot how to ground n pound people….Go away!

that’s pretty good John! I abreviated a lot here, but I think if you were to read from a formal portuguese blog you’d understand a lot. have you ever tried to see if you understood stuff at tatame.com.br?

PS: only error was the first one, “algumas maneiras” means a few ways. “There are a few ways” capich (I think I spelled that wrong LOL).
