sien - i'm on record of saying that brock is going to beat overeem, and at the end of the road he probably will have a losing record in the ufc hw division.

the same ppl who denigrate fedor, prop up overeem. i don't get that at all, so i am here to provide the counter balance. the tomato cans that overeem got fat off of the last 3 or 4 years in mma would even make m1 global blush. james thompson, fujita, todd duffee, brett rodgers, gary goodridge, those wins make you a top ranked fighter at 265? why should anyone be impressed by his HW resume in mma. dude is a can crusher. his first fight in 5 years and he gassed out in 3 minutes in an incredibly lackluster fight against werdum. i don't know why you say people shouldnt hold that against him. it was his first relevant mma fight in like 5 years.

and to dream, the only and best dubbed finishing combo in mma is RHK hospital, LHK cemetery. might be the thing i'm most looking forward to at ufc 137.
Why not? There's a top ranked Welterweight with a win streak consisting of the likes of Katsuya Inoue, Muhsin Corbbrey, Thomas Denny, 162 year old Frank Shamrock, Scott Smith, Marius Zaromskis, and the lesser Cyborg Santos.

Hey guys,

In that photo, Matt weighed 266lbs!

No talk of dropping to light-heavy, he just wants to fulfill his potential as an athlete.

By the way, that pic was taken after just three weeks on my program, with seven more weeks until fight night!!!

Much respect to Matt for his hard work and discipline.

Photo on the right is from his last weigh-in at UFC on Versus 4...261 lbs. Hard to believe he's heavier on the left. Either way...Meathead 2.0?

Ugh, it's a shame cause during that TUF I felt he was a meat head and a joke of a fighter but I think he's shown real improvement in his fights and now feel that Evans nickname for him is unwarranted.

Yea

He looks like he may be able to stick around for a while after being such a joke on TUF

Dunham only really lost to Guillard (I think he won that decision against Sherk). Other than that he had a nice win streak. No way he loses to SHAMAR BAILEY. Why would anyone take this no name shitty tuf fighter over dunham.

I don't really want to debate the dynamics of this fight again, haha. Neither of them wanted enter their opponent's realm and it turned into a shitty fight. Judging Overeem by this one performance isn't doing him justice. Same goes for Werdum.

And Overeem spent a round on the ground on top of Werdum. That makes Werdum's ADCC credentials a laughable joke and his bjj overrated by yacobod's retarded logic.

I don't remember M1 blushing when Fedor fought those guys. Fujita and Rogers gave Fedor real fights, while Overeem spanked Rogers like a little child and sent Fujita into a coma.

The facts are: Overeem beat two top 10 ranked fighters in his last three fights, stop crying.
 
Does anyone know of a site that lists UFC finishes by % for the past year or over time? I'm trying to develop a betting game with my friend and I'd like to figure out the weight of probability for different kind of finishes. Even better than that is if someone already plays a similar game and could tell me how you do it and the point values?

Right now we're using the old UFC Fantasy rules. 15 points per fighter, 7 for method, 5 for round, 1 for minute and then a bonus of 15 points for getting everything exactly right. I'm thnking about getting rid of the bonus for decisions and lumping ko/tko into one and all submissions into one.

Facts are he beat 1 top guy, and a win over fujita in 2003 is better than one in 2010. Might be hard to see clearly when your head is so far up reems ass. Unless rodgers is a top win lol.

Why are you picking on mr. Crocop? He's on the retirement legends circuit at this point, he isn't delusional like nog to hype himself up as a contender. He's collecting paychecks because ppl still like to see him fight, he still gets a top 5 pop from the crowd in the ufc.

And I was talking about dubbed finishers, so you're like a child wandering into a conversation with no frame of reference.

Fact: Fujita rocked Fedor. Fact: Overeeenm obliterated Fujita. Fact: Rogers was ranked in top 10 both Fedor and Overeem fought him. Fact: Werdum subbed Fedor easily. Fact: Overeem spent a round in Werdum's guard when they fought. Fact: Fedor had a war with Cropcop. Fact: Overeem ragdolled Crocop with ease soon after.
 
^ this

Fedor had lots of trouble with Rogers in the first round too. Overeem made him look like a scrub.

Ya and that was after the kongo fight, his balls took a beating 2 fights in a row.

Can you reemtards at least acknowledge that when fedor was clearing out the pride hw division, overeem was getting tkod by the best lhws on the planet every other match?

Yeah, that's right, he's fought in a much harder field and he lost to the cream of the crop of the division. But we're not talking about that, we're talking about now.

I'm sorry, I know you don't make the rankings, but anyone who uses those fraudulent rankings to implicitly argue that "bret grim used to be one of the 10 best fighters IN THE WORLD" needs to...i dont even know

I'm exasperated.

That notwithstanding, if you watched the fight Crocop never posed any danger to Overeem, not even a little. He was getting dominated in all kinds of ways.

If the argument is about Overeem's current ranking, then yes it is a legitimate fight to bring up.

If it's an argument is about Overeem's competition vs. Fedor's competition, then it's also a legitimate fight to bring up.

Heavyweight is a shallow as fuck division in the first place so ragging on guys for being a can crusher is unfair in a way. Everyone outside the top 15 or so is either a can or a prospect crushing other cans or prospects.

Reem is in the UFC now so we'll find out where he stands one way or another.

Anyone else see the blogpost, I guess bj penn refused to say "I'm going to beat nick diaz" for the ufc primetime for 137. The love affair continues.

There's an inordinate amount of TUF rejects on the card.
