Hard not to like this guy

Will be interesting to see how long he can hold the belt

It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.

That’s the big question. I thought only him could beat Machida and the oposite works too.

im thinking shogun will hold that belt for a while..

so what if im not the smartest peanut in the turd!~

I hope he does......

Shogun is the man…..

Well, that one in the center: he had a flap holster and he was in no itchin' hurry. And the one second from the left: he had scared eyes, he wasn't gonna do nothin'. But that one on the far left: he had crazy eyes. Figured him to make the first move.

Shogun is a pussy.

He’s been afraid to go to the ground since Forrest schooled him. Next opponent he has will take him down with ease and put him to sleep. I see it happening soon and often.

LOL

Like when Machida took him down twice and failed miserably. =P

Course everyone wants to pretend like the same Shogun, Forrest fought is the same guy holding the belt right now.

But watching my man-crush Shogun KO Machida live in Montreal will forever trump any accomplishment I can achieve for the rest of my life.. My childs birth, my wedding, my first encounter of the anal variety will all feel bitter-sweet.

Forrest couldn't school anyone

I don’t think Forrest brings ANYTHING to the octagon that hasn’t been seen before. He definitely doesn’t bring anything that Shogun hasn’t seen before. To think Forrest is better at anything over Rua is ridiculous. He got the best of him that night but it wasn’t because Forrest was better, it was cause Shogun was off. And Machida is 100x’s better than Forrest and Shogun seemed absolutely composed when taken down. Now the fact that he wanted to get back up as quickly as he did could be either because he knew his advantage was standing or because he wanted no part of the ground game…in which case jay you would be correct. But that’s still to be seen. I just don’t see why Shogun would want anything to do with anyone’s ground game when he’s clearly a better striker. Bring in either Evans or Jackson and then you can measure Rua’s ground game. but don’t start saying he’s scared of going to the ground because he wants to work the one part of his game that he’s dominating with.

i don't think hes scared but..

i do think his ground game is far overrated, his has no takedown defense but decent ground abilities. and people only say he was injuired in his lost to forest but no one seems to care that forest was injuired too and still kicked his ass..

the guy is kamakazi wild striker who is not afraid to go to the ground… in fact alot of times he pulls guard to go for leg locks, unlike anderson who avoids the ground like the plaque

by Robert(1) on May 20, 2010 11:36 AM EDT up reply actions  

It's just a carry-over from the GSP threads. Since Georges is obviously scared to stand, Shogun is obviously scared to go to the ground.

It’s just pay back for OD being a troll.

Wow you took that way out of context

I was only lobbying for a stand up fight between GSP and Kos because I wanted to see GSP’s stand up. Nowhere in any post did I say he was scared to stand trade.

lol..

Not even sure what I said was negative about Georges.. I’m just tired of seeing one dimensional strikers taken to the ground over and over again and controlled for 5 rds. Would like to see KOS stuff the TD’s and keep the fight on the feet. Didn’t say he would win; just said that’s what I’d like to see.

by O damn he got caught on May 20, 2010 11:48 AM EDT up reply actions  

Agreed. And more than likely that is how the fight will play out.

But GSP will be able to pick Kos apart on the feet all day long. He’s faster and much more technical. Kos may have a bit more power but I don’t believe he’ll be able to connect on the champ.

Are you a fucking retard? that man would rip your face off in seconds. He was injured when he fought Forrest he didnt fight in forever leading up to that point. Also Cote is one of the top MW that would also spank your stupid ass so shut your face or fight one of them you homo.

If it is a Vegas trip, guyverbob, you would need to come up with about $20 a week until next year...

If you are in USA, a trip to Vegas would run you about…
$300 airfare (highside)
$200 hotel (split with someone or 3)
$200 food and drink
$300 ticket to event.

$20 × 52 = $1,040. Start saving now. Hell, you could probably make $20 a week collecting aluminum cans or selling shit on ebay.

I guess my point is that it is attainable to everyone if they want to work hard to get it.

And kevjack1115 is the only top dog. If you don’t believe it, ask him…zing. :)

I have done this exact trip before, minus the ticket to the event. Not sure what you are talking about. You don’t need to stay in a suite, but 4 guys splitting a “normal” room is less than $800 (4 × 200). I can easily eat with a few beers for 2 days for $200, and the airfare may be a little high, but not much.

You must live a richer lifestyle than I do, or be willing to spend frivolously on items that I have no need for.

wrong, jones will do it b/c he can get machida to the ground and unleash the elbows that

broke brandon vera’s orbital bone and matt hammills face. the mystique is gone from machida. no shrines, everybody loses in mma and shogun showed the way. jon “bones” jones would break some bones on machida. peace.

That will be a good fight. I can't wait until they let Jones fight better competition.

I think Machida would still take it right now though.

This is what happens when you bet on a loser like Cote, I should have listened to David W-S

are YOU kidding?

When did he bitch? I saw him answer questions in interviews and mention that he thought he won along with 60% – 70% of the other people who watched the fight. And I saw him say next time he wouldn’t let it go to the judges. That can’t possibly classify as bitching, can it?

Sense and facts do go a long way on this site with the more switched on chaps but in this case you’re pissing against the wind.

You’re on the money though

Is that an ironic post?

A punt at comedy perhaps?

he says he will fight anyone but still won't fight wanderlei ..

i know they are in different weight classes now but what if the wand moves back up again .. dana would get a hissy fit if his top fighters refuse to fight each other.

Wandy aint ever competing at that level at 205 ever again. Moot point

According to Machida. . . .

On his facebook page, he states that he will probably be fighting Forrest Griffin in September.. WTF, right? I am NOT interested in that fight at all!

by haglnuts on May 20, 2010 2:09 PM EDT reply actions  

Perfect,

it’s the perfect time for Forrest to pull off one of his upsets…
LETS GO FORREST, OO YEA, WOO!

Forrest I swear if you win this fight I will never hate on you again.

Me too. All I know is that DW loves Griffin for giving him all of these high profile fights (win or lose).
