Browne, meet the gatekeeper.

Keep Firing, Assholes!

I bet you Kongo is going to try and wrestle

If UFC 120 is a freebie I do not want to see Kongo fight again after that awful Buentello fight.

Being from France

It’s almost guaranteed he’ll be on the televised card.

Didn’t know Browne was from Hawaii, I see Kongo winning this one though.

When he started doing that crazy blood-licking thing off his gloves, I figured he trained with BJ.

Kongo should be Brendan Schaub’s next fight

To be fair, this is a very tough fight for Travis Browne's testicles

I say Kongo’s knees def. Browne’s groin TKO R1.

Weird fight, I though they’d give Kongo a tougher fight after he handled Buentello but I guess they want to add another guy to his hl reel.

Brown is undefeated and absolutely decimated his first UFC opponent. I don’t think he is a walk in the park for anyone, much less a flawed gatekeeper like Kongo.

Browne reminds me of Shane Carwin pre-Gonzaga fight.

by carpiverson on Jul 2, 2010 11:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

Travis Browne isn’t a wrestler and doesn’t seem to have any great BJJ background, so that’s pretty much all the warning flags for Kongo out the window. Someone goes timber and my bet’s on the guy who’s fought and beaten real competition.

I’m going with Browne on this one.

Should be a good fight.

Kongo getting into beef

read through the comments for an amusing exchange between one of Kongo’s haters and the man himself on his fan page.
Amused me enough:

As an MMA fan who likes big scary kickboxers

I find myself monumentally disappointed with Kongo. His performance against Buentello was obviously a low point, but even in his wins he hasn’t really shown me much, which is a bummer because I was so prepared to be a mark.

Tatum: I think he's a good man. I like him. I got nothing against him, but I'm definitely gonna make orphans of his children.
