They've been doing that a lot lately and it has been pissing me off that we have to pay for them, so I just started streaming them from mmashare.com and some other place. ^^^^ Zuffa!!!!
 
I am a little surprised the Franklin/Henderson fight is a headline fight for a PPV.
I wouldve thought headliner for a Live Fight Night maybe ... :monkey1

I can understand what you mean. Maybe two years ago this would have been a awsome headliner, but now i think it deserves to be a co-main event or a free PPV card. This fight isn't amzing but it does have a big impact for UFC. The winner will be the next coach on The Ultimate Fighter, We will se who can hang with the big boys in the LHD, and it's a fight myself and much of the die hard MMA world have been longing to see. I just think they are late with matching these guys up.
 
why do you feel that way if i may ask?
They just dont put on a show that people want to see, I always found Franklin over rated, and Henderson is only known for his Silva KO, but thats just my opinion, I aint paying to see these guys....:monkey4
 
Not sure if I'm going to order. We also have the Fedor fight coming next week. That I will get. Its so easy to download these. But It will depend on the moment. If I'm drunk I'll get it. I like Hendo, I don't see Shogun having a problem. And its nice to see Denis Kang in the UFC.

The GSP/Penn fight is a great fight but a very weak card. But the fight alone is worth it.

Over Rated?Maybe but you said Has Beens...Henderson had 2 good fights ever since he came to the ufc,He went the distance with Rampage and he put on one hell of a fight,then he met Silva so those 2 losses was against ufc`s 2 best fighters,but i admit that Hendersons last fight was slow and he looked pretty bad out there,so passive the whole match.Look at his record,in Pride he was the best along with Silva,over rated?Hardly...

Franklin is what he is,its wrong to call him a has been as his 2 latest losses was against Anderson Silva.
Franklin is a big dude,thats why he got so far in the MWD,we can say the same thing about Anderson Silva,if he goes up to LHW im no so sure he will dominate as many as he does in the MW.

If Henderson will be on the offensive instead of beeing so passive like in his last match he will beat Franklin,but then again Franklin is always on the offensive so it will be interesting to see the outcome.

Coleman...now thats a different story,44 years old and been away for many years because of injuries,i watched his training and he looked pretty bad,his condition will be his downfall against Shogun.

I just think their time is up and they should hang up the gloves, people want to see fast action fights, atleast I do and either of these guys have delivered recently, maybe they did in their prime but not in their recent showings, hence have beens...:cool:

if you read what wrote above then you would understand that both of them aint has beens,they lost against top rated fighters,Franklin against Silva 2 times...how many times can you remember Franklin lost before he met Silva?

So If Anderson Silva looses against Patrick Cote in a possible rematch,would that make him a has been?Because he is in his 30`s too remember...

Franklin looked just as good as he did before against Hamill,he has always delivered,he likes to be on the offense the entire match.

I guess I was out of line saying has beens, but they are not fighters I would pay to see, not enough action for my taste... If Silva was to loose to someone like Kote, he may as well retire man, Silva is just too much for all the guys in that weight class...
 
and your quote confirms you must be a TUF noob, worst thing that happened to the sport were these fans. You must be a Forrest Fan which means you are a noob and no nothing about the sport. Worst fans of the sport. And please base your claims with some support so I can make you look bad.

Ive been involved physically and as an observer of this sport since UFC 1 my friend. :cool:

Your narrow-minded opinions such as those in the above quote further proves my point that you know nothing about this sport. All you know is what you read online and probably from joe rogan's commentaries. Just because someone thinks that Forrest is a gifted fighter they are a noob? :lol, i dont even need to defend myself, your statments already show who the real noob is.

What's the matter, did you get tired of everyone ignoring your desperate posts and threads in the sandbox which were clearly cries for attention?

if you dont like their style,thats ok,there are many fighters i dislike too...

The thing about this sport is that even if you loose 3 matches in a row by KO or Submission it doesnt mean youre any less talented than the winner,a choke and ko happens so fast if youre in the wrong position,Nogueira`s win over Tim Sylvia is an example where Sylvia totally dominated Nogueira but he was lucky on the ground and got Sylvia in a Choke.Same thing about Mir against Lesnar,Lesnar knocked Mir on the ground and pounded him,match was close to be finished but Mir got a leg and won.
 
I think the judges in the Ace/Hendo fight are actually NBA Referees. What terrible judging.
 
29-28 was the right call. The 30-27 was crazy. Is Rogan gay for Franklin, eveyone complains Rogan favorites fighters too much, but this was really bad.

And the Johnny Cash Tattoo was crazy looking.

Franklin won that fight. They probably just wanted Hendo to coach TUF so that more fans would tune in since Rich was already a previous coach.

I think the first round was definetly Hendo's, the third no doubt was Franklin's. The second round is what pretty much decided the fight. Overall i think Henderson won the fight.
