NEW REPORT (sorry for subject change)

YOU CAN’T BE SERIOUS!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. wait, i already placed money on silva at the hilton.. my parlay is all screwed up.

KARO PARISYAN INJURED FIGHT SCRAPPED.HOPE LAMBERT/MCDONALD GETS PROMOTED TO THE MAIN CARD.

by SCOTT on Sep 5, 2008 2:14 PM EDT reply actions

I hope Pellegrino and Tavarez goes to main card. Speaking of which, the odds to the undercard fights are now on BetUs. Here they are:

116 Thiago Tavares -300
117 Kurt Pellegrino +200

10:00p
119 Tim Boetsch -500
120 James Lee +300

10:00p
122 Dong Hyun Kim -450
123 Matt Brown +275

10:00p
125 Roan Carneiro -110
126 Ryo Chonan -130

7:30p
128 Jason McDonald -170
129 Jason Lambert +130

I see Pellegrino having better than a 33% chance at beating Tavarez. I was hoping to get Stun Gun at like -200 but that would have been a dream come true. So I just did a parlay on Kurt/Stun Gun/Liddell. That parlay is paying out at a little over 4-1. I don’t have much available money in my account right now because it is all tied up between this UFC event, NFL football week 1, and BROCK LESNAR!

by ViolentMike on Sep 5, 2008 3:09 PM EDT up reply actions

I wana see STUN GUN!!

by Brandon on Sep 5, 2008 3:29 PM EDT up reply actions

I dont even know what I am betting yet but I know I am betting $100 on stun gun

by john on Sep 5, 2008 3:32 PM EDT up reply actions

To win, or risking?

ALSO, for NFL I am liking (with the spreads) Jets, Patriots and Eagles

by ViolentMike on Sep 5, 2008 4:26 PM EDT up reply actions

Stun Gun is apparently the only nick name cool enough to be mentioned in the weigh in results.

by James S on Sep 5, 2008 5:14 PM EDT up reply actions

to win. NO WAY HE LOOSSES!

by john on Sep 5, 2008 5:51 PM EDT up reply actions

why? you like man tits

by rob on Sep 5, 2008 6:08 PM EDT up reply actions

gutted about the silva/machida fight nice one mcarthur.

by SCOTT on Sep 5, 2008 2:15 PM EDT reply actions

any ideas on replacement? I’m thinkin Tito…HAHA

by McArthur on Sep 5, 2008 2:17 PM EDT up reply actions

how about shogun?

by b.w. on Sep 5, 2008 2:50 PM EDT up reply actions

these English cards are all CURSED!

by john on Sep 5, 2008 3:33 PM EDT up reply actions

I would love to see shogun-machida but it wont happen.
James irvin wouls be okay.

by belfort_fan on Sep 5, 2008 3:51 PM EDT up reply actions

I think Shogun has the perfect skill set to beat Machida, agressive, good striking, well rounded take down and jiu jitsu

by brendan on Sep 6, 2008 11:48 AM EDT up reply actions

They should get Wand in there and get shogun-Rampage II. No point in Wand stomping on rampage a third time. Such a shame though, this totally fucks up everything.

by NameNotRequired on Sep 6, 2008 4:40 AM EDT up reply actions

If that news is true I hope they do Shogun vs Machida.

by DirtyML on Sep 5, 2008 2:50 PM EDT reply actions

You guys have to me kidding.

by belfort_fan on Sep 5, 2008 2:51 PM EDT reply actions

no kidding. its true.

by b.w. on Sep 5, 2008 3:04 PM EDT up reply actions

by brendan on Sep 6, 2008 11:48 AM EDT up reply actions

Is there any other way?

by PW on Sep 6, 2008 12:30 PM EDT up reply actions

The Ultimate Fighting Championship on Friday announced that the scheduled bout between Karo Parisyan and Yoshiyuki Yoshida for Saturday night’s UFC 88 in Atlanta has been scrapped.

Little information is known, as the fight was little more than 24 hours away from the bell. The UFC, however, did indicate that a last-minute back injury has forced Parisyan to withdraw.

by ramon on Sep 5, 2008 2:53 PM EDT reply actions

Karo should be thrown out of the UFC. He is bad in every way for the sport.

by RandomTask on Sep 5, 2008 2:55 PM EDT reply actions

DO YOUUU KNOW WHOO I AMMMMMMM?

I SUFFER FROM PANIC ATTACKSSS AHHHHHH

by DirtyML on Sep 5, 2008 2:56 PM EDT up reply actions

I effing hate Karo so much. I had money on him losing! What the hell! Haha.

How does this even happen? He was at the pre-weigh in conference!!

by WB on Sep 5, 2008 3:07 PM EDT up reply actions

He wanted no parts of Yoshida-san!

by john on Sep 5, 2008 3:34 PM EDT up reply actions

i also

by Brandon on Sep 5, 2008 3:47 PM EDT up reply actions

imagine how yoshida feels …..the DAY before the fight he finds out he’s not fighting, he was prob already cutting weight and all that hard training…..poor guy

by Toad on Sep 5, 2008 6:48 PM EDT up reply actions

He had a panic attack and faked the back injury. How the hell did he injure his back? He should be training light the last week before the fight.

by Gord on Sep 5, 2008 11:09 PM EDT up reply actions

I personally want to see Mike Patt vs. Tim Boetsch promoted to the main card because I think that fight is going to be an incredible one.

Also, Pelligrino vs. Tavarez is a do or die fight, so that should be good as well.

Does anybody else think that Jason Lambert will not make weight?

by "Mr. NC-17" on Sep 5, 2008 3:38 PM EDT reply actions

It’s not like he was huge for 205, he had alot of fat on him, I see him making weight, And hopfully he’ll be a force in this division.

by Chase on Sep 5, 2008 3:49 PM EDT up reply actions

he was fat for 205

by belfort_fan on Sep 5, 2008 4:25 PM EDT up reply actions

I know, I said he wasn’t huge, he was fat.

by Chase on Sep 5, 2008 4:38 PM EDT up reply actions

im sure it wasnt to much trouble shedding the weight. wrestlers are used to cutting alot of weight.

by belfort_fan on Sep 5, 2008 4:41 PM EDT up reply actions

I wonder if his man tits went away, i didn’t see the Weigh in Vid or see the pics yet.

by Chase on Sep 5, 2008 5:20 PM EDT up reply actions

His man-boobs are the only reason to watch him. They make me want to give him a dollar.

by PW on Sep 5, 2008 5:41 PM EDT up reply actions

LOL PW, HE looks like he could drop to 170, and even then he’d probbaly still have man tits.

by Chase on Sep 5, 2008 6:18 PM EDT up reply actions

Haha thats godd stuff.

by belfort_fan on Sep 5, 2008 6:23 PM EDT up reply actions

Jason “Sausage Tits” Lambert is a nickname i’ve heard often

by Brandon on Sep 5, 2008 7:02 PM EDT up reply actions

by b.w. on Sep 5, 2008 9:22 PM EDT up reply actions

Yeah i know he looked like he had aids.

by belfort_fan on Sep 5, 2008 11:23 PM EDT up reply actions

I believe Rashad Evans is going to come at Chuck with a lot of kicks. Chuck will still knock him out though

by The Matt King on Sep 5, 2008 4:02 PM EDT reply actions

Damn UFC.com, the video feed off their site doesn’t seem to be working. Is it working for anyone else?

I order EVERY PPV, The you invited 8 or 9 buddies over, and It turns into a 5 dollar event, I always here people complaining about the 45 dollars, Guess some people don’t have many friends …

by Liddell-Marquardt-GSP-Sherk on Sep 5, 2008 4:51 PM EDT reply actions

Maybe they are too busy to make friends because of all the working to pay for $45 dollar PPVs every month.

by cmon on Sep 5, 2008 5:01 PM EDT up reply actions

Go to a bar and don’t get crazy with the drinks. I have yet to spend $45 at Buffalo Wild Wings and I usually get 4-5 beers and food.

by VNDK8 on Sep 5, 2008 5:21 PM EDT up reply actions

BWW is great! awesome wings!

by brendan on Sep 5, 2008 6:45 PM EDT up reply actions

Yeah Im At Bww Usually Corona Or Chino Hills

by Hotdamn on Sep 5, 2008 8:42 PM EDT up reply actions

I think I am going to be the only person on these threads to say…Rashad will out box Chuck to a UD win.
Dan TKO R2
Rich TKO R2
Kampmann UD
Stun Gun TKO R1 (I am assuming this gets bumped to main card)

by efisher on Sep 5, 2008 5:10 PM EDT reply actions

a concur, you will be the only person to say that.

by medecine balls on Sep 5, 2008 5:47 PM EDT up reply actions

lol, sure rashad to outboxe chuck looks silly.

by shamo84 on Sep 5, 2008 6:05 PM EDT up reply actions

Ive got tickets for ufc 89 and am pissed off!

by Tony on Sep 5, 2008 6:04 PM EDT reply actions

can I get the link 2 the weighin video???

by koolguy on Sep 5, 2008 6:54 PM EDT reply actions

its up and running on their homesite. ufc.com

by b.w. on Sep 5, 2008 9:24 PM EDT up reply actions

Can anybody who watched the weigh-ins tell me, did Hammill appear to have a significant size advantage against Franklin?

by Brandon on Sep 5, 2008 7:09 PM EDT reply actions

no but Chuck looked like shit.

by jsoph on Sep 5, 2008 8:28 PM EDT up reply actions

BRANDON. it was hard to tell from the video and alot of them looked pretty gaunt from the cut. it will be alot easier to tell tommorow night when they stand face to face after rehydrating. and chuck did look like $hit, but he always does. it still a little shocking when he takes off his shirt and he has that fat hanging from his gut. he then usually goes out and puts on a great fight.

by b.w. on Sep 5, 2008 9:30 PM EDT up reply actions

For everyone who says they aren’t buying the ppv or can’t afford it, fyi there are a ton of sites out there that stream the event for free. Google is your friend :)

by rydinlow on Sep 5, 2008 7:39 PM EDT reply actions

people that buy the ppv are the ones to keep everything going, so keep that for yourself.

by shamo84 on Sep 5, 2008 8:57 PM EDT up reply actions

if rashad wins there is no point in watching ufc anymore………

by COlin on Sep 5, 2008 8:41 PM EDT reply actions

I wouldnt go that far….but as a Chuck fan, if Rashad wins convincingly….there would be no more reason for me to route for Chuck anymore. I hate it when the older guys go out in shame, and if Chuck loses to Rashad, that will be shamefull

by Chadx23 on Sep 5, 2008 9:40 PM EDT up reply actions

Come on guys… Chuck aint gonna lose to Rashad. I’m sorry if you’re a Rashad fan, but it’s time to chalk up a loss, even with Chucks beer gut. I do keep hoping at every weigh in that we will see a huge, ripped Chuck, but it never happens :( Even with a loss here, he’d still go down in history as one of the greatest.
