Florian
elbows are going to to some damage in this fight…2nd round tko
very unlikely that gomi gets finished with strikes.
Most underrated chin in MMA along with andy’s.

right on
other than the gogo & arelio arm tri, when has gomi ever been finished
its ganna bring me utter joy to watch kenny get dismantled on Wed, I just hope the stringent wieght cutting rules dont sap Gomi’s strength & power
Kennys strategy in this fight get on his horse and dance around the ring until in his mind gomi hopefully gets tired
Florian easy win vs Gomi.. i hope
gomi is ready for elbows right to the face & forehead!
Florian 2nd rd via choke

Volkmann..
beats Forrest in a chest hair contest any day..
Conan : You are known as a striker. Is that correct? Tell me what that means.
Chuck : Well I like to punch people, or kick them.
Its really called Bojangles Coliseum? After eating there, I didnt think they could afford naming rights on an arena
struve nickname
I thought that Struve’s nickname was skyscraper, not hightower.
Gomi FTW
I hope gomi still has it, I think its gonna be tough for him to win but I hope it happens.
dan hardy took a beating but he won me over as a fan.

he still has it and because of the grand stage, thats all the motivation he needs
this is his big chance to re-claim glory and all eyes will be on him he wont let this oppurtunity slip away
when he was fighting in those smaller shows in japan the guy had no incentive to train he accomplished so much early in his career but now he wants to prove he is still one of the best if that wasnt the case he would have never signed on with the ufc
i picked florian in the pick um pool but i love the odds on gomi so thats were i put my money...
I get my ass kicked for money, all you gotta do is talk motherfucker.... Rampage Pride GP03

other than the main event
i cant say any of these fights are getting me too excited, maybe charlie brenneman but only beacuse he is from my hometown
185 lbs.: Nate Quarry vs. Jorge Rivera
I think this is gonna be a good fight too…
Duz any1 think kflo has the guts 2 stand with gomi?
I have a feeling kflo is guna go for the take down rite away o do the same crap he did against Penn!

I dont think Florian
is gonna stand with him for too long, but I dont think Florian is overmatched on the feet either. I dont think this is the same Gomi as a few years back. With that being said, I think Florians advantage is gaining top position and using those elbows/ground and pound. Gomi is not used to defending elbows, and I think he is in for a rude awakening. Gomi taking out Florian in his first fight in the Octagon is not going to happen.
I hope it's a stand up war.
I wud luv for gomi 2 knock him out then fight Penn ! Gomi’s been training his ass off I hope he puts up a Gud fight.

Great FN Card
Another great FN card and that Main event is going, well, I should say, that the main event will hopefully have more action than the (cough, cough) gsp one. I hope gomi puts florian out!
anybody know if weigh ins are open to public?
called the coliseum and they state that weigh ins are from 2:30 – 4:30pm.
