after seeing this i pray to god that Vera retires the kid.

Jones and his fat ass butter boy screaming should be stomped on.

there's still something so unifying about sport in it's purest form, when athletes rise above themselves and touch greatness and in doing so remind us all that we also have greatness inside of us.

The problem with Vera is ...

he looks like a world beater against guys he’s clearly better than. But against decent opposition who fights back – he sits there and does nothing. No offense or very choppy. Same thing with Gonzaga. But with him he instead gasses and crumbles apart. I think Jon runs him over and every hater mainly RoBerto will be on that nutsack but wait – we’ll all be there to kick you right off.

hahaha, i won’t be on his nutsack. I do not jump from fighter to fighter i stick to my boyz. I’m not a fake fan who doesn’t know the meaning of being a “fan”.

Retires the kid hahahah!

Good one, Branden Vera doesnt have the ability to retire anyone, he has proven that over and over again. Thats why most people dont like him, he is a stanup guy that is boring and way over rated. He is one of very few standup fighters that cant be exciting, which to me is all wrong. I will say it again “Brandon Vera has some serious dirt on Dana White”, he has to there is no way this guy can still be in the UFC without something going on behind the scenes.

He’s Phillipino and the UFC is (or was) trying to get into that market, and needed a poster boy for the locals to ooh and aah over. Otherwise he would have gotten his walking papers long ago.

are they making out

Fedor invented a language that incorporates Sambo and Kimuras.

So next time FEDOR is kicking your ass, don't be offended or hurt, he may be just trying to tell you he likes your hat.

And Jones looked like he was making out with Hamill also at the last weigh-in!!

please lose the fucking speedo's vera.....

i was going to watch the weigh in, but thought, no i can’t, speedo’s on show again, and if i’m not mistaken they are “wet look” ones, he deserves to loose just for that, what next, a “mankini”….

by freedomthrtyfve on Mar 20, 2010 9:18 PM EDT reply actions  

lol

i know what you meant, but the first line makes it seem like you want him to take it off…lol

by Phevos on Mar 21, 2010 12:34 AM EDT up reply actions  

that is what freedom wants

You should see him go off about how Vera looks in those speedos.

“They should all wear those and fight in them, much less to get in the way!”

Ummm ok Free35 whatever. To each their own lol.

Jones always seemed like the respectful quiet guy but hes ready to murder Vera and hopefully this lives up up to the hype.

by OXYGENgone on Mar 20, 2010 9:29 PM EDT reply actions  

all the vera haters out there please explain to me why its warranted??

i understand that a lot of it may be rooted from his comment he made years ago about holding both the hw and lhw belt…but what fighter hasnt made arrogant statements? poker players on espn talk more shit during a poker game to psyche each other out than vera has ever talked….hes a fucking fighter….

hes only been stopped one time in the ufc and it was an early stoppage which took place with under 10 seconds to go in the round….some people say hes a boring fighter…that bullshit, every fight he had as a hw was exciting, he was one of the most exciting hws at the time and he was smaller than every one of his opponents….he went to a decision with timmy with a broken hand and was outweighed by 50 pounds…

his fight with jardine was exciting, they both went balls to the wall, jardine won the decision…

hes 9-4 in the ufc and wec combined….
7 of those wins were by tko or submission…

2 of his 4 losses were against a former hw champion and a former hw and light hw champion…

and another one of his losses was to jardine who 2 fights before had just beaten the greatest ufc lhw champ of all time….and was comin off a loss to the greatest pride lhw of all time….even though jardine sucks now, at that time he was still a top contender

oh and he also massacred a guy by the name of frank mir in 60 seconds…u dont consider that exciting? oh and btw, before you blame that on mir’s wreck, it was mir’s 3rd fight back from his wreck and mir was coming off of a win…so dont blame that on mir’s inactivity…cause when they fought mir had been active again…

so please explain to me the hatred on this site for vera

my dream fight would have to be Brock Lesnar vs Jake Shields...and before the fight theres a video of jake slapping brock's wife...then id like to see shields try to gay porn a win over brock using his butt sex merry-go-round tactics...the massacre that would take place would be the greatest thing ever televised...every limb jake has would look like corey hill's leg...god i hate jake shields

Hellactic preaching against hate! How ironic!

Maybe they’re just goofing around like you.

I think Vera is a worthy opponent and will raise Jones credibility to new heights.

by Yan117 on Mar 20, 2010 10:00 PM EDT up reply actions  

yea definantly ironic coming from me i guess, but i always tend to like the fighters everyone hates

my fav fighters are:

top 3 in order

1. brock – either loved or hated
2. rashad – hated
3. koscheck – mostly hated (although i think hes earned a lot of respect and isnt as hated as he used to be)

a few of the rest in no order

rich franklin – mostly respected
tito ortiz – hated
vera – hated
jds – loved
cain – loved
bisping – hated

but yea most of the fighters i like are hated…im not gonna bother making my most hated list cause its pretty long….

yea man i had it on and couldnt believe what i was seeing...they lead the ENTIRE game

were even up 12 at one time…the only time kansas looked good was the last few mins of the game, i was like….oh well, there goes the upset….they got within one and then northern iowa got the ball back with 30 seconds left and they were up by one and could have run the clock down to 6 seconds and then took a shot…but they ran right down the point and shot a 3 and i was like “wtf are u doin? if you miss then kansas has the ball back with 30 seconds left and can kill the clock then shoot for the win” but dude made the 3 and kept it for the win…

it was fucking crazy

Vera by submission

And I think Gonzaga will time one of JDS’s uppercuts and KO him with a head kick.

by wolfmanshowlforever on Mar 21, 2010 12:52 AM EDT up reply actions  

Yes.....exactly, that's what I mean

Those bball players have so many skillz when it comes to fighting, especially the kicks, that I figure out of the 15 or so guys ganging up on JDS, one of them will be able to kick him in the head while he’s throwing an uppercut at somebody else and not looking. Dumbass.

it was meant to be a joe jackazz. plus your dunb too in thinking gonzga can beat vera. lmao!

Obviously a joke

Of course it was clear you were joking, just as it should have been clear to you that I was being sarcastic as well. I added the dumbass at the end because of your implicit assertion that I am foolish for even thinking Napao can win this fight.

by The real Philo on Mar 21, 2010 12:38 PM EDT up reply actions  

hate Vera boring as hell and always says he will go to war to the death etc and fights shit. I got a feeling he will give a good fight this time though. Jones by tko

I was a fool to think Bisping had any chance against the Axe Murderer, and even more foolish to bet agaisnt the great Puck Head.

by Tonyuk on Mar 21, 2010 12:15 AM EDT reply actions  

jon jones by tko but i could see vera pulling off un upset i mean the dude befor he took that long break had a good win against frank mir and recently looked good against couture so will see what happens now the junior dos santos i have a fealing ither gg is gonna be stupid like he always is and try to go for the head kick cause every fight hes in since his head kick win against cro cop hes tried the head kick anyway i think hes gonna go back to his ground in this fight and we will see junior dos santos tested i took he should pass the test and take a ud unless gg does what he always does and goes for the head kick then 1stround tko
