UFC on FOX 2 Thread

[MoFo]

Dana just put on Facebook that Munoz is injured and Bisping is in against Sonnen on the Fox show.

Winner faces Anderson.

[whiteyford]

Bispings fucked then

[Funky Fly]

Yeah, if I were him I'd look at bringing in some serious grapplers to train with. Rampage isn't the greatest person to train with.

[Crimson]

Well hopefully we get to see some good verbal taunts in this short span. And at least there will be a Silva/Sonnen rematch now

[Jura]

Not a fan of either but I would want Sonnen to win to face Silva in Brazil.

[weather vane]

Fuck I love both of these guys...

[Reavant]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG



bisbing is going to kill himself

[RP]

Lol. I honestly didn't think anything could make me root for Sonnen, but then Bispin stepped in ...

[Kris P Lettus]

Wasn't he already on the card??

[Krimzon7]

Damien Maia/Bisping was scrapped to make this card

[Krimzon7]

And WAR SONNEN

[Kris P Lettus]

Damien Maia/Bisping was scrapped to make this card

So what is the other match that'll be.shown on Fox?? As of right now UFC.com doesn't even have Sonnen/Bisping on the card.. it goes from Davis/Rashad to Dunhan/Lentz..

[Kris P Lettus]

Also I understand they want a solid card for their second national tv outing but I would've thought they'd keep Sonnen/Bisping for a season of TUF cause that would be the most entertaining season ever..

[Innovator]

Good this was the fight to make already.

[Kris P Lettus]

Oh its gonna be excellent but that's a lot entertaining air time lost..

[Innovator]

God Sonnen could have gone off with 8 weeks to build to Bisping.

[Innovator]

sonnench chael sonnen

Damien Maia vs Chris Weidmann.

Everytime I picture a Bisping/Anderson fight, I just see Griffin/Anderson again, but worse.

[Kris P Lettus]

Main event should be a banger..

I got Sonnen murdering Bisping..

[MoFo]

Honestly dont give a shit about Rashad or his shit fake feud with Jones

Sonnen v Bis is the one to watch.

[Innovator]

It feels so wrong that Sonnen and Bisping only got a week or two to hype this.

[Crimson]

Decent interview with Sonnen today

[Innovator]

“I’M THE MAN WITH THE BIGGEST ARMS, I’M THE MAN WITH THE BIGGEST CHARM AND I’M THE MAN THAT CAME TO CHICAGO TO DO BISPING A LOT OF HARM”

[Stickman]

Hate sonnen so much.

[Kris P Lettus]

Merge this thread with the other one.. I didn't realize.there was already an "official" thread, even though I posted in it..

:$

[RP]

Are all these fights going to be on tv?

[CSL]

the Maia/Bisping/Rashad fights are on Fox, a bunch of prelims on Fuel TV (UFC.tv probably for UK/Europe) and 1 Facebook fight

[MoFo]

Us UK members without ESPN can watch this on the UFC app for Android.

Did it for Guillard/Miller.

[owenbrown]

Sonnen on Dan Le Batard is Highly Questionable on Wednesday...

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BF5BIBh-mSM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[Krimzon7]

Dan LeBatard is the perfect person to interview Sonnen










After Joe Rogan

[James Steele]

I don't much about Chael Sonnen, but that was fucking hilarious.

[James Steele]

<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Ks_jI0rOZXI" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="560"></iframe>

:lol: I like Chael Sonnen.

Edit: I looked him up and learned why so many people don't like him. I still think his interviews are hilarious.

[Crimson]

I agree, don't see why the hate. He does overdue it at times, but for the most part he is entertaining.


And is FOX serious here??? They are using the stupid NFL song for UFC ...Whatsupwiththat

[Droford]

the "NFL Song" is the "FOX SPORTS THEME" , they use it for everything

[Crimson]

Really? I just noticed that. They need a seperate one for UFC,something more exciting

[Crimson]

Too much talking so far 15 minutes in

[Droford]

USA! USA! USA!

[Droford]

UFC on Fox isn't off to a good start lol

[RoXer]

Yikes

[James Steele]

It'd help if Joe Rogan didn't shit all over both fighters like Dana White at a press conference.

[RoXer]

Would have rather watched the FOX robots duke it out

[James Steele]

Gah...now I see what somebody meant in this thread when they said Bisping made it finally possible to root for Sonnen. Bisping cut a shitty Wade Barrett promo. Sonnen on the mic is like Superstar Billy Graham if he was from Nebraska.

[Next Big Thing]

I love Chael when he's in promo mode.

[Stealth-Icon]

The move of that first fight was the closing bell. That fight really sucked.

[James Steele]

ChaelNation™

[James Steele]

Seems like Bisping's workout is primarily him screaming loudly while doing standard workout activities.

[James Steele]

BEAT HIS FUCKING FACE IN

[James Steele]

How many times is Big John going to tell Bisping to quit grabbing Chael's shorts?

[owenbrown]

How many times is Big John going to tell Bisping to quit grabbing Chael's shorts?

over/under 20 times

[Kris P Lettus]

Got sonnen winning 29-28..

[owenbrown]

no Bisping 29-28

[Stealth-Icon]

Hate to say it, but I think Bisbing will pull that one out.

[owenbrown]

bullshit

[Stealth-Icon]

Wow, I am glad I was wrong

[Crimson]

Damn close fight

[owenbrown]

Bisping got robbed

[Droford]

rofl

[Corndad]

Sonnen's Promo lol

[Next Big Thing]

Why do they do these post fight interviews? They're so dumb.

[Kris P Lettus]

He almost went Alittle Tazz there..

"Beat me if you can...<s>survive if I let you..</>"

[Crimson]

Hilarious if Rashad loses. Can't see it though

[Kris P Lettus]

This should be a good fight.. been watching both these guys their whole careers and both have the tools to.be champions.. got Rashad winning with his big fight experience..

[Droford]

Anyone that calls himself "Mr Wonderful" has my vote lol

[Kris P Lettus]

"Shook Ones" :love:

[Crimson]

Not a bad 1st..Rashad up 1-0

[Kris P Lettus]

Evans boxing is lightyears ahead of Davis'..

[Jura]

Davis looks tired or something.

[Kris P Lettus]

Adrenaline dump...

[Kris P Lettus]

Rashad is gonna grind out one more round and then when Davis slips, BOOM, KO..

[Kris P Lettus]

Experience is winning here..

[Innovator]

Id be surprised if evans doesnt put it away this round

[Skippord]

did it just cut to an episode of Cops for anyone else? because it did on my TV and it felt a little racist

[Innovator]

Well im surprised

[Kris P Lettus]

Why did Jones.not go in the ring after the fight.. hypemachine would have been rolling for the title.fight.already..

Huge ball drop by.the UFC there..

[James Steele]

Jay Glazer is fucking horrible.

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

Just scrolling down, I've seen quite a few retarded comments in this thread. Not naming anyone, of course. ;)

Not the most exciting night of fights, but at least Sonnen won. :y:

[Krimzon7]

Good night of fights. I will be cage side to cheer Suga to victory right here in hot lanta!

[MoFo]

The Maia fight was fucking awful.

Looking forward to around 6 months of Chael ripping on Silva in interviews.

[Krimzon7]

The Maia fight was fucking awful.

Looking forward to around 6 months of Chael ripping on Silva in interviews.

Epic ness is on the way

[Stealth-Icon]

Jay Glazer is fucking horrible.

[Crimson]

He's a good info machine on the NFL. It's something new for him maybe he'll get better

[Kris P Lettus]

Glaizer was an MMS insider way before he was on the NFL on Fox coverage.. He did.the Fox Sports South coverage of Pride FC..

[James Steele]

He sucks at NFL coverage too. He does his job, but he makes me change the channel.

[Captain of Fun]

I don't think anyone could possibly be as bad as Jones though. Yeesh. What a train wreck.

[Savio]

Yeah Jones shouldn't announce any more

[Savio]

No reason Evans/Davis had to be 5 rounds.

[Next Big Thing]

They definitely need to go back to only having title fights being 5 rounds. I know Shogun/Hendo was epic, but I think the fights are more likely to be like Evans/Davis or worse.

[Funky Fly]

Nah, this is better for shows like this. 2 of the three fights had title implications. You want a fight with that kind of importance to have 5 rounds so that you don't get Cecil Peoples or Steve Mazagatti torpedoing an entire weightclass's title scene.

Plus I definitely wanted 2 more rounds for Sonnen/Bisping. Sonnen definitely edged Bisping out, but I didn't want that fight to end.

[Crimson]

They should just put out entire cards on FOX instead of 2 or 3 fights.

[Jura]

Well it's better than just one fight the whole night (Velasquez vs Dos Santos).

[Next Big Thing]

They should just put out entire cards on FOX instead of 2 or 3 fights.

Nate Diaz vs. Jim Miller is going to be on the UFC on Fox 3 card. That's going to be the best fight yet on Fox.

[MoFo]

Still cant believe they left Guida/Bendo off the first Fox show, that fight was awesome

[Kris P Lettus]

I'm hearing good things about the ratings.. plus both the big.winners.set up more.compelling storylines for the titles than if Bisping and Davis had won..

[Next Big Thing]

I think the fact that 2 out of the 3 fights on that card blew mile long donkey dick and the show still did strong ratings will be good in the long run.

I think the UFC will feel more comfortable letting guys like Guida/Bendo headline instead of going for the marquee names who don't necessarily have a track record for exciting fights.

Plus, Diaz vs. Miller will more than make up for it.
