TUF 10: The Ultimate Fighter Live Discussion (Episode 8)

Tuf10_medium


Well, Team Rampage is 0-7 and the UFC training facility needs a new door.  Is there any reason to think Mr. T doesn't going 0-for-the-show?

He does have 6'18" Marcus Jones going for him tonight.  Unfortunately, Jones also likes gardening, D'n'D, and gassing in practice.  Yeesh.

Zak Jensen and Matt Mitrione both now have snap pools going on them.  Jensen was recently named in a wrongful death suit.  My question is: who had October 30th in the pool?

The biggest question at this point is what happens if Team Rampage has no fighters advance in the tournament.  Who will coach Team Rashad's fighters?  Will Ken Shamrock return and show Rampage how it's done?

By the way, if you happen to see Marcus on the street, under no circumstances should you call him "Big Baby." He wants everyone to know his nickname is "The Darkness," but if I were you, I’d just call him Marcus. Ninety-five percent of fighter nicknames are lame and unnecessary. "The Darkness" is definitely one of those names.

Just to play into the hype a little, if Kimbo did replace Mitrione it wouldnt be on next week anyways. Nelson would still be fighting Wren. The fact they are bothering with the “KIMBO WILL RETURN” storyline over the “watch the man that beat Kimbo against the guy that choked out a ninja” is you know…slightly interesting.

But if it is still just posturing, the glue factory needs to call and demand their horse back.

Yeah...

Especially since even considering the taping delay (read: before 104) I still don’t think Rampage has the skillset to deal with a 100% on his game Machida. Shogun found one way to do it, Evans might have another way (has anyone ever actually taken down Machida by single or double-leg??), but Rampage… who knows?

Evans has NO way

Come on now, let’s not get too crazy here. I think Page would do a hell of a lot better than Rashad did

That fight would be teeball for Machida.

Teeball.

Shogun got a gameplan that worked for him (kinda), and machida is already preparing to counter it.

10/24

Just to say, that it doesn’t make a difference if it was taped before or after 104, machida is still a pain in the ass for any fighter.

So u mean to say u don’t think Rampage would have one successful offensive attack on Machida and proceed to get knocked the hell out in 2 rounds by Machida’s first flurry eh? The Rampage I’ve seen the past few years would beg to differ

by 05vette on Nov 5, 2009 5:04 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

The Rampage I've seen

would let himself get body kicked over and over again. I could see a duplicate of a Tito vs Machida fight.

That may be a better anesthetic result to lose by decision but it means nothing. Page and Rashad should just fight.

You mean the Rampage that got his ass (and legs) kicked by Forest?

Forrest Griffin was able to win a close decision against Page in a stand up fight.

Do I need to say more to explain why Rampage would get his ass whooped by Machida?

A delusional Rampage

Jardine has decent kicks and Page checked a few of them and the ones he didnt didnt seem to bother him much. All it takes is one quick punch and Machida could go hit the mat quicker than Wanderlei

Forest Griffin disagrees with you about leg kicks having no effect on Rampage.

Wanderlei beat Rampage when they were both in their prime. The third fight was not the best representation we have seen from Wand since Pride.

You cannot possibly think Rampage would spark Machida like that, it just would not happen as Lyoto does not wade in like that. I feel Rampage would suffer a quicker fate at the hands of the Dragon.
