UFC 132 Thread (Will Tito Ortiz Add to the Unemployment Percentage?)

Cruz v. Faber
Silva v. Leben
Ortiz v. Bader
Condit v. Kim
Siver v. Wiman

There's a lot of potential wrestlefucking on this card. I don't think Wiman is going to want to stand with Siver and that's pretty much all Kim does. Hopefully Siver and Condit smash those guys early or else we might see a boring decision.

Tito v. Bader is another one that could become a ground fest. Especially if Tito tries to play it conservative and get back to wrestling like he said after the Hamill loss. I'll be cheering for Tito though.

Silva v. Leben is the fight I'm most looking forward to. To me, this fight will determine if Wanderlei has anything left in the tank.

Cruz v. Faber could be fun if it stays standing but I'm not sure Urijah can match the speed of Cruz so he'll probably try to take him down. Urijah Faber's ground and pound is vicious though so I wouldn't mind watching that. Steve Mazzagatti is the ref for this fight so it'll be fun watching him try not to screw up.

[CSL]

yeah, pulling hard for Tito

[RP]

Silva vs Leben could be epic

[SuperSlim]

Silva vs. Leben is going to be epic. That is the match that I am most looking for. I'm a big time Wand fan and have been waiting for him to return.

Fight of the night for sure. Silva is going all out.

[MoFo]

Love Condit, hope it leads to him v Nick Diaz.

Also, wat everyone else said about Wandy/Leben.

[Next Big Thing]

Four years ago I don't think anyone would have thought Ortiz and Silva would be on a card, but Dominick Cruz and Urijah Faber would be the main event.

Kind of surprised Leben is the underdog. Tito's +400 for this one. If I had a hundo to spare I'd be tempted to take that action just in honor of Tito's career.

[The Mask]

+400? i don't get it.

anyway i will be amazed if bader doesn't win tbh.

[Next Big Thing]

+400? i don't get it.

anyway i will be amazed if bader doesn't win tbh.

A $100 bet on Tito nets you $400 if he wins. Basically it's the oddmaker's way of saying Tito has no chance in hell.

[Londoner]

Don't normally watch UFC but gonna give it a go tonight after that holy shit moment last time.

[Mr. JL]

anyone have any streams?

[IC Champion]

Am I the only one who thinks Carlos Condit looks like a modern day Wil Wheaton?

[Crimson]

Ok this ppv better not disappoint..the last 2 have been lackluster

[MoFo]

my mandem MELVIN GUILLARD with the sick KO

[CSL]

let's gooooo Titooooo

[CSL]

about 3 seconds of a dream I had last night was seeing Tito win this fight (well I assume it was this fight) on TV by RNC. Don't think I've ever seen MMA in a dream before :o

[MoFo]

I wanna see Tito v Mitrione so kind of want him to win

[Crimson]

TITOOOOOOO YEAAAA

[Next Big Thing]

FUCK YES TITO!!!!!! EAT A DICK DANA!

[IC Champion]

OMGGGGG

[IC Champion]

TITO LANDED A PUNCH

[CSL]

FUCKING CXOME ON

[AJ]

Tito with the huge win!

[owenbrown]

YOU FUCKING SHITTING ME?!

[CSL]

amazing, completely amazing

[Crimson]

about 3 seconds of a dream I had last night was seeing Tito win this fight (well I assume it was this fight) on TV by RNC. Don't think I've ever seen MMA in a dream before :o

Holy crap you have a gift

[AJ]

Great start to the main card so far...

[IC Champion]

To be fair, Tito hasn't looked awful or over the hill in his losses when you consider his injuries and surgeries he's had.

[IC Champion]

If Tito had finished him with punches it would have been epic.

[CSL]

Holy crap you have a gift

lol yeah only just clicked it was a choke, was busy making little girl at a boy band gig noises

[AJ]

If Tito had finished him with punches it would have been epic.

I think the fact that Tito won in essentially what was a win or retire fight...and did so by finishing the fight made it epic...(T)KO/submission notwithstanding.

[IC Champion]

i got the best stream ever i swear, as close to an actual feed on TV as ive ever seen.

[IC Champion]

That was a robbery, wow.

[owenbrown]

GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT DECISION

[IC Champion]

I can see Matt Wiman getting a win bonus.

[IC Champion]

I thought Wiman had the 2nd and 3rd and could have had the first.

[owenbrown]

should have been Siver LOSING 29-28 that is bullshit

[AJ]

Interesting judging there...while I ultimately thought Wiman won the fight, I don't like rewarding fighters who spend half the time trying to get a takedown and not rewarding for takedown defense. I still think that Wiman won the fight though

[Crimson]

Another bullshit decision. Seems to be a common thing recently

[Crimson]

Whats the name of Silva's entrance music

[AJ]

HOLY SHIT!

[Next Big Thing]

Melvin Guillard v. Benson Henderson is a fight I'd want to see.

My fucking stream dropped I missed what happened! Fuck!

[AJ]

This card has not disappointed!

[owenbrown]

HOLY FUCK!

[IC Champion]

Time to hang em up Wandy

[AJ]

That's the fifth fight on this card to end in the first round.

[CSL]

Whats the name of Silva's entrance music

Darude - Sandstorm

[IC Champion]

I feel like we're due for a boring fight in the ME after such a good card so far.

[Next Big Thing]

I was just thinking the same thing. I don't know though. Those little dudes seem to always bring it.

[Next Big Thing]

The UFC needs to definitely have these guys work on their promos. It's like they're reading from a teleprompter on a delay.

[AJ]

I feel like we're due for a boring fight in the ME after such a good card so far.

Kind of feel the same way...never been a huge fan of Dominick Cruz...too much "point fighting" for my taste.

[Next Big Thing]

Why won't Faber age?

[Savio]

They start the PPVs @ 9 now?

[AJ]

They start the PPVs @ 9 now?

They started PPV at 9 PM EST starting with UFC 129.

[AJ]

Gotta say, it's been an exciting first two rounds so far.

[MoFo]

lol Justin Beiber @ UFC

[Crimson]

Faber seems like the more naturally skilled fighter, while Cruz seems like the better trained. Skill seems to be on top for now

[Next Big Thing]

This is close. Cruz may have taken the last round though.

[AJ]

I think Cruz has this...I definitely had him winning the 2nd and 5th rounds...the other three were freakin' close

[AJ]

50-45? Really?!

[CSL]

those were some ridiculously whacked out judging scores, one has it a whitewash, one has it by one round. They really have to do something about the judging.

[Next Big Thing]

Did one judge really score that 50-45? What the hell was he watching.

[Crimson]

I thought Faber took 3/2..but yeah it was close

[AJ]

those were some ridiculously whacked out judging scores, one has it a whitewash, one has it by one round. They really have to do something about the judging.

I bet that judge gave all five round due to the all encompassing "Octagon control."

[Corndad]

Cruz/Faber III needs to happen in the future. That was a close fight.

[AJ]

I thought Faber took 3/2..but yeah it was close

I gave Cruz the 2nd and 5th rounds easily...the other three were close...in all honesty, I had it 48-47 even though I hate Cruz's style. There's no way in hell Cruz won all five rounds.

[Next Big Thing]

Cruz/Faber III needs to happen in the future. That was a close fight.

They may as well. 135 isn't exactly oozing with contenders.

[Stickman]

Bye bye Silva

[Londoner]

Just watched the Faber fight. Loved it. Dunno much about the sport itsself but can enjoy a good match. :)

[Next Big Thing]

It's definitely an acquired taste, but I'm sure if you keep watching you'll be hooked like the rest of us.

[MoFo]

Just the Faber fight?

Watch the rest of the card, there was shit loads of KO's and shit :lol:

[Londoner]

Just the Faber fight?

Watch the rest of the card, there was shit loads of KO's and shit :lol:

Yeah I saw one of those then watched something else and turned back when i saw the main event was on. Its starting to get me into it atleast.
