Werdum???????

Man, was I pissed when I seen how fat Werdum looked it was too late to throw a $10 or $20 spot on Dos Santos. I didnt even pay attn to weigh ins. Last I heard was Dana in the vlog saying how big werdum looked. I wish i would of known big , as in fat and pudgy……it was too late, even though I tried to throw a little on Dos Santos, it was too late BETUS wouldnt accept the bet….

You need an injury qualifier

Technically, Silva won by TKO, but he didn’t pound out Cote – the latter’s knee blew. It was a matter of time until something pretty yet bloody happened, but still, the “finish” wasn’t really a finish, just an anti-climax, sort of like the first Cro Cop/Barnett.

Kudos for Cote not going down to those hard strikes. Boo for Silva not throwing more strikes. Punches in bunches, mate.

I reeeeeeeeeeeally didnt like

the way Silva was acting in this fight. Ok, we get it man your good. Now finish him off. Theres no need to try and embarrass someone with all that crap he did tonight. I agree with what I read in the other story. Silva fights like this again and its not helping him become any kind of star. Someday, someone will come up.

As for the Alves Kostchek fight, HELL YEAH BABY GO PITBULL!!!! Great, great showing for Alves. I really wanna see Alves and GSP. Even more so than Penn Vs GSP.

Alves’ takedown defense looked pretty good tonight, that impressed me the most about him. That’s 2 of the top UFC wrestlers in a row now that he has had good take down defenses with.

Fabricio Werdum as the American Economy

After years of success, it rests too easily on its past accomplishments, becoming fat and bloated before crashing down. (Ba-dum CHH)

Did he employ the crane hop at any other time in the fight?

by Simco on Oct 26, 2008 4:22 AM EDT up reply actions

Silva crumpled him with a feint. Thats some Jedi shit

by smoogy on Oct 26, 2008 4:26 AM EDT up reply actions

I’m just trying to understand what he was even doing.
He knew his knee was injured so he’s hopping on it? Has he, or anyone, hopped towards their opponent before?

by Simco on Oct 26, 2008 4:35 AM EDT up reply actions

He was faking a front kick/teep.

Nah, I know hope decent enough, depends on how drunk he is tho hahah

Can we stop

talking about Floppy Ears Werdum now? Everyone started off talking about how his standup is so improved & he gets caught by an uppercut that Dos Santos wound up & had cocked from halfway across the ring waiting for him.
