No sH8T, he isnt good on the ground, he is DUTCH! Im not going to lie, Gilbert is a MONSTER in the stand up, but he doesnt stand a chance against Barnett! Its a waste of a match up!
I dont understand why Gilbert doesnt just switch to K-1?

Leben was gettin hammered by Terry Martin too and won (I think)

Hughes (although I can’t stand him) vs. Trigg 2 was a good comeback as well

hahah! True! I spent this entire weekend, getting blazed and watching all of Nog’s pride fights… the guy is amazing!
There are some great ones like his fights against:
Sergei (one of my favorite nog fights).
Fedor all 2 1/2 of them
Herring twice
Cro Cop was a classic
Werdum (i enjoyed)
Henderson twice
Yokoi (anaconda choke)
Bob Sapp Legendary performance!
Barnett twice
I like fighters more then I like NOg, but there isnt a single fighter I respect more then Rodrigo Nogueira! Only way you can describe him is as a legendary warrior!

Yep Nog is the only fighter I’ve seen straight eat a Cro Cop high kick to the dome and maintain enough mental faculties to continue fighting; not only that he was stuffed on so many take downs, it’s amazing he didn’t get demoralized; thats some serious heart/grit.

True tHat! No one has more Heart then NOg. If I am not mistaken, didnt Fedor also eat a Cro Cop HIgh Kick?

Not like Nog did, Nog ate it flush on the Face BAM, if it was anyone else it would have been lights out.

Fedor ate a few head kicks mate … not only that he was dumped on his head by randelman ,,,, one of the most sickening pieces of footage in MMA and he still gets up and submits him. They are both freaks of nature.
Although it must be noted that that Nog was run over by a car as a kid (across his chest), went into a coma and survived … pretty resilient I guess :)

mark hunt took an axe kick to the head and im pretty sure he took one of cro cops head kicks and was still standing, this was the second time the fought

btw, I hear that Gilbert has been cleared to fight in California, to my surprise.
Hopefully Mazzagatti or Migliorata referee this fight and gilbert gets pissed and beats the crap out of them!

well barnett just has to take him down and submit him. but wouldnt it be sick if barnett goes for the takedown and yvel ko’d him with a flyin knee.

Your also not good at abiding by any type of rules or keeping yourself under control..
by O Damn he got caught on Dec 22, 2008 9:46 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
I wouldnt mind seeing him beat the crap out of Mazzaqgatti or Migriorotta!

Agreed; but Steve I can forgive, Dirty Dan is a different story..
by O Damn he got caught on Dec 22, 2008 10:46 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
funny you say that….Dan has a number of questionable calls….what did it for me was stopping the Kimbo fight against Thompson
by McArthur on Dec 22, 2008 11:35 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Or not stopping it when Thompson was beating down kimbo for a full minute

John, if Yvel shows up as Cro Cop did against Barnett he may win.
by zheka on Dec 22, 2008 11:51 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
Cro Cop used to have some pretty amazing TDD; anything can happen, but I’ve never seen Yvel display even a half way competent ground game; he couldn’t even stop Frye from taking him down without grabbing the Ropes and he got subbed by Igor (not even going to attempt to spell his last name).

Okay guys I’m from the Netherlands and Gilbert is going to kick Barnett’s ass :)
