Anyone here get into MMA?

Was always going to be the way that one ended. You hear Hendo vs Vitor and hope it's gonna be like Hendo vs Shogun. Vitor just too explosive.

Should also win the award for worst post fight interview. Gettin all Tony Robbins on everyone, don't think he actually addressed any of Aniks questions.

Really?? You picked that??

Your a much better judge than I am....

I though Hendo would win by TKO in the later rounds... When Belfort slows down.

I thought that the only way Belfort could win was to KO Hendo... And I knew that there was no way Hendo could be KOd... or so I thought....

Belfort is a beast at the moment.... And if Anderson manages to win the title back v weidman I hope they do silvaVbelfortII at a stadium show in Brazil.

Belfort is a maniac! He is in one of the purplest patches I've seen in a long time. Would love to see him up against the winner of Weidman vs Silva. He is probably first in line if Jones next opponent goes down with injury.

Just thought it was a bad match up for Hendo. Vitor is in beast mode at the moment as you said, and his explosive counter attacking style IMO just doesn't suit Hendo's hunt down and land the H Bomb style.

Vitor did exactly as I thought, waited to measure timing and wait to explode given the slightest window. Hendo stuffed up by not backing away the moment he stuffed up his distance on the first right. Shame cos I was really hoping for a 5 Round war with Hendo getting the Nod.

Belfort v Machida at MW with the winner getting the next title shot?

That would be a damn fun fight!

Love Machida, but Vitor in current form would drop him.

TRT Vitor looks unstoppable

Lol, I came in here to cautiously query this point, I mean the dude is old as hell and just suddenly gets extremely ripped and strong and explosive, sorry but there is no way that's natural.

No chance it's natural suddenly he looks like he did when he was 19 lol we will be seeing all of his fights in Brazil now as he won't be cleared to fight in Vegas.

 

[shiznit]

I hate old dudes that use TRT... I think it's crap.

But to be fair to Belfort... Hendo's been a pioneer of the use of the TRT exemption in MMA so you can't feel too much sympathy to his opponent in this instance.

And I also think the change of his camp to the Blackzilians has made a HUGE difference. The Dutch striking coaches they have there have transformed his striking style... It's almost like he's got a whole bunch of new weapons in his arsenal. Especially his kicks... Just incredibly accurate.

He can't get a TRT license in the USA because he has failed a drug test. Right? I can't see why any champion would go over there and fight him. I love vitor but seriously why would they risk it? I'd tell the UFC it's a fight in the US or he can get f**ked.

I'm not sure, Dana white keeps saying he can fight in the US but he keeps getting put on Brazil cards.. Go figure?? I would imagine your right though and his situation would be the same as Overeem in the sense that coz he's been busted juicing before he can't get TRT exemption because its his own fault his levels are so low. Which is fair enough IMO.

 

[ggmu]

Yeah Dana said the reason he fights in Brazil is that he rates well which seems like an excuse to me. I don't know to much about TRT but having low testosterone cause u were on roids now needing to numb the numbers back up seems like cheating to me. Nobody forced him to juice in the first place.

 

[Jack_Napier]

You know Bisping is still cut at getting smashed by Vitor. His tweet during Vitor post match interview was decent. Went something along the lines of " here goes Vitor, thanking Jesus, should be thanking his Pharmacist"

Haha it's pretty true lol although I am a Bisping fan. But TRT or not Bisping was out from that head kick against Vitor

What's people's thoughts on Rashad and Chael? I think there wrestling will cancel out and well get a pretty good striking affair. Just hope it doesn't turn into a clinch fest.

 

[Tone83]

Rashad way too good for chael IMO.

Chael was just anderson's bogey opponent, nothing more, he's no where near the level of the guys he's been targetting lately. Rashad out-does him everywhere, ko for sure.

Yeah, pretty much this for me.

Sugars wrestling mixed with his speed and knockout power doesn't suit Chael IMO. Hopefully rashad comes looking for a KO as well.

 

[aqua_duck]

Chael needs to retire or go back to 185, he's merely cannon fodder for the top guys at 205

Close fight I score it 48-47 Big rigg

 

[dogslife]

What a disgrace

Yeah that's how I had it as well, rounds 1-2 & 4 to big rig.

Wow, looks like GSP is retiring! Shocked!
