I'm a massive JDS fan, but
I kinda want Roy to win for these 3 reasons:
1.) It will piss off Dana White to no end knowing this guy will get a title shot.
2.) Roy won’t have to face Shane Carwin, which would be a lopsided beatdown, as opposed to JDS who is more than capable of defeating Shane with his power.
3.) The possibility of Brock Lesnar vs. Roy Nelson would result in legendary advertising.

Sonnen by decision.

Silva by obliteration
Either way after tonight some people will be forced to shut the hell up about their beliefs for their favored fighter (ahem)Sonnen fans(ahem).
Nick Garcia is the Brian Russell of MLS but 10 times worse.
Can't wait!!!!
Sonnen will be beaten into oblivion and his 15 mins of fame will be over. He will be lucky to receive as much attention as Thales Leites, Patrick Cote, and Damian Maia after tonight. Silva’s beating will make him write a book and do a book tour like Forrest Griffin Or maybe he will jump weight classes to get away from Silva like Rich Franklin Or go to Strikeforce like Dan Henderson. LMFAO at the thought of Sonnen winning.

O/T but I just realized UFC 122
Will be going up against Pacquiao vs. Margarito, which now makes me wonder if Dana’s decision to put this on Spike has to do with counter-programming that card.
Nick Garcia is the Brian Russell of MLS but 10 times worse.
Obviously..
But I don’t support giving known cheaters big paydays. I will be watching UFC 122.

I can’t wait for the end result, because we either get chael as Champion or Chael explaining himself
Keep Firing, Assholes!
Truculence, Belligerence, & Pugnacity
or Chael explaining himself
Historically, both recent and distant, he has chosen to go the denial route…which makes him perfect for politics.
I like Fedor, it’s just his fans that are intolerable...and his management.
Chael if he loses: “I was real sick coming into this fight, I have been recovering from staph and I partially tore my ACL . I’m sure Anderson would love the rematch, given that we are the best in the world.”
Chael if he wins: “I was real sick coming into this fight, I have been recovering from staph and I partially tore my ACL. I’m sure Anderson would love the rematch, but I’m the best and he is just going to have to get back in line.”
Ok.
So that ad on the side of this page says it is live at 9/ET, but everywhere else says it is at 10/ET. Are they showing the prelims on the PPV?

Cardio - The BIG question. Does Shane Carwin have cardio? He's never gone past the first round. His muscle mass is astounding and we all know that with all that muscle comes a need for the heart to pump fresh oxygenated blood to keep them from building lactic acid. He does train up in the thin air of Colorado, so that can't do anything but help. However, we have seen him pretty winded after a 1st round fight. Adrenaline dump or cardio problems? We won't find out the answer to that until someone takes him out of the first round.

Cardio - The BIG question. Does Shane Carwin have cardio? He's never gone past the first round. His muscle mass is astounding and we all know that with all that muscle comes a need for the heart to pump fresh oxygenated blood to keep them from building lactic acid. He does train up in the thin air of Colorado, so that can't do anything but help. However, we have seen him pretty winded after a 1st round fight. Adrenaline dump or cardio problems? We won't find out the answer to that until someone takes him out of the first round.

GREAT SHOW
Called it before the fight:
Cardio - The BIG question. Does Shane Carwin have cardio? He's never gone past the first round. His muscle mass is astounding and we all know that with all that muscle comes a need for the heart to pump fresh oxygenated blood to keep them from building lactic acid. He does train up in the thin air of Colorado, so that can't do anything but help. However, we have seen him pretty winded after a 1st round fight. Adrenaline dump or cardio problems? We won't find out the answer to that until someone takes him out of the first round.

- Guida wins because he broke someone’s jaw.
- Struve wins by KO.

I'd take Struve
Valuev has approximately zero talent even in the sport he practices daily, so he’d be pretty atrocious in MMA.

I think the playbook for beating Alves has been written
Takedown to control, takedown to control, takedown to control, repeat.
There are only two fighters in the world who might be able to defeat Jon Jones: Ken and Ryu.
i think he has some pretty good TDD though

that was literally the most disappointing thing i've ever seen

the craziest part about this, Chael did everything he said he would, except win.
He beat him down, ran him down in the ring, what a fucking bad ass.

Jesus. If there is a rematch
I don’t know if I can live through another 25 minutes of something like that.
might as well have a rematch
MW has nobody else
Vote Quimby
I can't believe the crowd is booing
The champion got the crap beat out of him and pulled off one of the most amazing comeback finishes ever.
Silva did what Marquardt couldn’t and Sonnen’s weakness was exposed. So many props to Sonnen for pounding out Anderson but damn the mental mistake cost him again.
Nick Garcia is the Brian Russell of MLS but 10 times worse.

I guess that black belt does mean something now
When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail." - Jack Burton
I can't wait to see that fight
I don’t think Kos’ will be an easy one.
sonnen rematch. this fight reminds me of machida/shogun 1. second time around, i think sonnen could take him.
Difference is... neither Machida nor Shogun tapped
Nor would I expect them to LIE about it if either did…
BTW screw Belfort
There has to be a rematch.

Chael may have lost, but his stock went way up with this loss
Between the shit talk, and then backing up the shit talk, and coming so close to becoming champion, he’s got a strong future in the UFC from here on out.

See what I said above though
Machida didn’t tap, and neither did Shogun… nor would you expect either to lie about it.
So sad that Chael lost. I was afraid it would end like that.
But I gotta give props to Silva. What a comeback.
I agree

I am stunned that Chael tapped
He was so close. I would have figured he’d sooner go limp.
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.
Well at that point it was the armbar that got him to tap, so it wasn’t just a matter of going to sleep. After he tapped he was grabbing at his arm, clearly in pain.

Look at Silva's face
he looks the same as he did before the fight started
can you imagine anyone manhandling GSP though? All his wins lately have been shutouts.

Truculence, Belligerence, & Pugnacity
Well my thinking is
if people want to penalize GSP for not finishing Hardy, they pretty much have to be harder on Silva for almost losing to a guy like Chael.

Athleticism, technical superiority, a great personality....
…and now, he has heart.
The true champion version of Anderson Silva has most likely come out from the smoke in this battlefield.
Like Brock, humbled and dominated can really bring out the best in any fighter. We might see the best champion days out of Silva yet.
I would definitely like to see these two square off again in the future.

Submission hold of the Year?
Triangle
Walking the line between intelligence and ignorance since 1985
@deowade
According to Gross
there was an arm bar mixed in there somewhere too. The triangle just isn’t enough by itself anymore
That's not what I meant.
I meant that the triangle alone isn’t enough for the fighters. Why not go for an armbar too if they leave it there for you. This had to be at least the third or fourth fight this year that ended like that.
Can we get the "Triangles? How the fuck do they work" image updated
…to put Chael in as Violent J next to Fedor?
(Damned Gathering of the Juggalos videos have forced me to learn one of those guys names! DAMN!)
Don't believe a word I say, I don't train BJJ.
I blog at TangleBones - you should follow me on Twitter here.
If you like it, you should put a rec on it.
I was thinking about a collage of Chael’s triangle losses with “fucking triangles – how do they work?” text to them. I’m probably too lazy to actually do it though.. someone else definitely should

Hughes had the sub bonus wrapped up
Before Anderson pulled that off.
We’ll just disagree here because Hughes’ sub was amazing but it got overshadowed.

Yea, Hughes’ sub was all strenght and Silva’s was all heart.

He just held him there. I think at least an omoplata attempt would have been useful.

Wow, even in defeat Sonnen proved he was more man than Anderson Silva. A bulked up GSP would grind the Spider to pieces. Book it Dana.

Have you even seen the original Bad lieutenant, and your quoting the Nic Cage film? He just fuckin dominated the number 1 fighter in the world for 4 and half rounds.
The more you drive, the less intelligent you are.
It’s one of my favourite movies, actually, but it doesn’t have the cult aura that Herzog’s version has. What does that have to do with anything, anyway?
My point was that Sonnen wasn’t the noble warrior you’re claiming him to be, and Silva isn’t as douchey as you’re making out.

You can’t be serious right.
Chael tapped clearly. Then he’s like “O crap, better not.” But he did. For a second there he gave up, not very champion like. Plus he denied that he tapped, saw the replay and got the ref to explain it to him and decided not to protest because he knows it was true.

Remember
GSP is a better striker with better footwork and so on then Chael as well, and if Chael can rock Silva more then once and not get knocked out, i REALLY like GSP chances.
