I'm curious to see how shredded Chuck looks
I saw another pic of him yesterday on Twitter, and he is in the best shape I’ve ever seen him in.
For The Record
If its the same Pic I saw if you look close it looks like an old pic of Chuck, it seems like he has no scar tissue in his face at all

Apparently that makes a difference to them but it won't make a difference to the outcome of the fight

Wilks won TUF.... lol
Next prediction -- Martin Kampmann submits Paulo Thiago
Counting down the days till Shogun vs Rogerio 2 (which now seems to have increased dramatically)
Have to agree with kev (it's been a while)
Don’t think I will be buying this card either. Only fight worth money is the kampman v. thiago.
But a true champion, face to face with his darkest hour, will do whatever it takes to rise above. A man fights, and fights, and then fights some more. Because surrender is death, and death is for pussies. - Kenny Powers
Sad to say but I think Barry destroys Cro Cop.
It won’t be pretty.

Let’s go Pat! Cro Cop is the man, but I love watchin Pat fight, plus he’s a Louisiana boy.
I'm your huckleberry.
This is why Chuck will win...
When he is focused and in shape he is a more explosive athlete and more talented fighter than Franklin. I saw some recent pics of Chuck and he looks crazy good. I think his change in lifestyle will bring out the the Chuck of old and this one won’t even be close.
Just Do It

fantasy betting mmaplayground. It’s pretty limited, though. ONly 3 ppl per parlay and only within one event.

Yes but for the next event.
with the world cup starting, I won’t be betting on this event. I’ll look for you before 116.

if its fantasy betting why would they limit the parlay?

Yet another reason why I'm doubting my Condit pick
"Kimbo Slice sucks like I've been saying for the last few months, this fucking guy can't fight and he got knocked out in 13 seconds" (Dana White)
"The one thing we know about Kimbo Slice, this guy is a fighter, this guy will come to fight" (Dana White)
Just looked at Cro Cop's recent (overall) record
He’s 4-1-1, with a loss against Dos Santos (no shame in that) and NC vs. Overeem. My mind has been playing tricks on me. I thought it was a lot worse than that.
Yadi: The fastest of all the Molina brothers.
Probably Because Gonzaga Kicked His Head Off
and is more memorable then say him beating Perosh and Eddie Sanchez

future matches
I think the winner of Ben Rothwell/Gilbert Yvel will face the winner of Cro Cop/Pat fight. The loser of rothwell/yvel will probably get kicked to the curb.
If Franklin wins he will get someone like Jon Jones next. If Chuck wins I don’t know maybe Tito but I do not see what that does for him as far as a title run.
Cro Cop has to win. Sure he has some W’s lately but they are against cans and were not to impressive of wins. He held his own with Dos Santos for awhile though. If he wins you can say he beat a pretty good fighter and his next fight could be the Rothwell/Yvel winner. After that if he won again he’d get a #1 contender match because of his name.
Holy... shit...
I have never seen Chuck in that kind of shape, if I have it’s been YEARS; I know they been talkin about it all damn month but damn he is fuckin ripped.
That’s right girl, let me whisper in your ear
Baby wake up, we’re naked and we’re humpin’ sexy
For the last fifteen minutes baby, that’s what’s been happen’
Yeah, too late now, it’s on.

question
he’s ripped, i’ll give him that, but does that make his chin anymore suspect? Does that help his reaction time? I’m picking Chuck to win, but I don’t think he being ripped has much to do with it, do you?
Yes
There’s a big difference between abusing your body and the effects of that and training correctly and reaping the rewards!! The major factor is whether it’s too little too late?!
I for one am so happy he has dedicated himself, because it gas been noticeable in his gut and footwork that he wasn’t before.

A flat stomache vs the usual beer gut is a statement in and of itself
Even when Chuck is in shape he usually has a little beer belly, but not the case here.. Everytime they’ve said “Chuck has turned it around, Chuck is changing his life style blah blah..” I’ve written it off as usual hype talk. But seeing the results and seeing that it’s really true has definatley made me optimistic. The only KO Chuck has received that I think indicates he may have a suspect chin is the KO from Shogun. The left hook didn’t look very powerful to me. But the Rashad KO and the Rampage KO I think anyone would’ve been lights out.
Anyway, yes I do think it has a lot to do with it; it means he really was in shape during camp, and that indicates to me he was able to spend more time on a gameplan and on his technique vs spending that time soley on making weight and having cardio.

This is the Chuck I wish I'd seen 5-7 years ago
I wish he’d been in this kind of shape, I think he would’ve been amazing.

why
He was amazing anyway five years ago — and in the midst of a seven fight winning streak.

You're right
But he still had the beer gut; I’m just saying, take amazing and then + a couple levels.

I don't get it either Jesse
so now instead of results of training and results in the cage (which Chuck has had an amazing career, you guys are more interested in how ripped he is? weird to me
yeah
sorry I’ll talk to you Monday send me a reminder

no I get it o damn
I’m part busting ur balls and part surprised that that is what everyone is noticing.
Well it can't be helped
He’s got a name and he’s not looked like this in a long time, if ever.

You're not the only ones confused
Apparently Chuck’s going to win because he want on a diet because his new girlfriend told him to so he’s now in better shape than usual. I don’t get it at all, I’ve still not heard anything about Chuck’s skill improving in fact it doesn’t sound like his training has changed that much at all. It takes more than bothering to get in shape and having a pretty girlfriend to win fights.
"Kimbo Slice sucks like I've been saying for the last few months, this fucking guy can't fight and he got knocked out in 13 seconds" (Dana White)
"The one thing we know about Kimbo Slice, this guy is a fighter, this guy will come to fight" (Dana White)
Actually if he's in shape it means
He can spend less time on making weight and training cardio and more time on game planning and technique. If I translate Dana/Chuck’s comments correctly he was basically taking his current skill base and using a training camp for the sole purpose of getting in shape and having cardio to compete in his last few fights. IMO those are two very different things; if you can’t see that, then your logic confuses the hell out of me.

paulo thiago deserves a shot if he wins
Dude only has one loss and it was a close one to Jon Fitch. If Fitch beats Alves will he get another title shot? Who will Paulo Thiago get next if he wins tomorrow? Perhaps the Alves/Fitch loser? Hardy?
Personally I’d like to see GSP vs Nick Diaz but that will never happen.
I also think CC will win this fight
5’11 is not a good stat to have against Cro Cop; CC is back peddaling and getting bullied by bigger fighters, generally with more height and reach; granted Barry weighs more but he’s giving up reach and height and possibly more respect for an opponent than is healthy; that’s a bad combination imo. If Cro Cop can maintain forward motion and walk Barry down I don’t see why he shouldn’t win.

Chuck...
Looks in great shape!!! Even if he has lost a little chin, being in this type of shape and staying off the booze ect. HAS to help your ability to take a shot! Chuck was always my favorite fighter to watch and I sure hope he can pull of a victory. I still have my doubts and I don’t want to jump in and say he will win just because he is in shape, if anything, I am hoping that if he loses, he loses on a high note in a 3 round WAR!
Barry @ 248??!!!
Holy shit! That dude is a brick shithouse at 230, but now? Whoa.
I'm your huckleberry.
Holy (expletive)!!!
Chuck looks like a real iceman!
