UFC on FOX 7

Looks like Nate Diaz is going to be on another Fox network card. Guess the bird didn't anger Fox that much and since the UFC on Fox 6 ratings were higher than the UFC on Fox 5 ratings, I guess it didn't hurt viewership either.
|
I'm excited for this card. Should be a great night of fights.
|
Cesar Gracie gonna be crying into his cornflakes the morning after this.
Bendo to kick Gil's ass, and Thomson over Diaz, COME AT ME BRO. Dan Hardy has a heart defect and is off this card btw. Replaced by Jordan Mein who destroyed Dan Miller. |
Jordan Mein is an upgrade from Hardy.
I'm hoping for Melendez and Diaz to run train. |
i love melendez but i dont see anyone at 155 just wrecking Bendo
not saying gil cant win bu henderson is on his own level atm |
I'm going to say Melendez takes this fight.

Does Gil have a shot ? IMO Bendo is a terrible matchup for him, everything Gil does, Bendo does better.
|
I love Gil but I have to agree..
Bendo is on another level right now he is def an awesome addition to the already stacked 155 division |
|
R U from Cali ? Or just a Team Ceaser Gracie fan ?
|
been a nick fan since back in the day and a nate fan since TUF (bc of Nick)
worked on a movie with Gil and he freaked out cause i was wearing a dethrone shirt and he asked to take a pic with me and he tweeted it lol he was awesome and i immediately became a fan of his h8 jake shields though |
Thats cool. I have the same thing with Sean Sherk and guys from Greg Nelson's team in Minnesota. Mostly because I trained there for a while and all those guys were really cool. That's why I have respect for all fighters and people who train. Even though a lot of people hate the Diaz brothers for their "attitude" I know somewhat what those guys have to go through to be a fighter and once you know that you can't help but have respect for them.

moved these posts to the proper thread
i like them cause they dont give a fuck started loving nick in his fight against karo in 05 |

yeah i have seen them now, but i just remember that being the fight that made me a fan of his
personally i like the paul daly fight |
Yeah, the Daly fight was great. Nick Diaz or for that matter Nate Diaz doesn't put on bad fights. Always like Nate's fight against Alvin Robison where he triangle's Robinson and flexes to the camera before Alvin submits.
|
yeah
that was him becoming a man in front of our eyes |
What's the problem you have with Shields ? He really didn't have a bad or boring fight till he got to the UFC. His dad passed away also, so I kinda give him a pass.
|
Nate Diaz fighting on 4/20. Wonder what he'll be smoking after his fight?

UFC on Fox 7 picks
Benson Henderson v. Gilbert Melendez Daniel Cormier v. Frank Mir Josh Thomson v. Nate Diaz Jordan Mein v. Matt Brown Chad Mendes v. Daren Elkins Ramsey Nijem v. Myles Jury Jorge Masvidal v. Tim Means Frances Carmont v. Lorenz Larkin Joseph Benevidez v. Darren Uyenoyama Hugo Viana v. TJ Dillashaw Anthony Njokuani v. Roger Bowling Clifford Starks v. Yoel Romero Palacio |
Same picks apart from Larkin over Carmont, and unsure if Jordan Mein is THE REAL DEAL yet. Dan Miller is only a jobber @ 170 so destroying him was impressive but not omgnextbigthing stuff IMO.
If Darren Elkins wins, he is statistically the greatest featherweight in UFC history btw :lol: |
Carmont is a monster
|
I could see those three big fights go either way. The way Cormier has been anointed as the "next big thing" (hell yeah I just went there) makes me think Mir will end up KOing him, although I hope not b/c Cormier presents a marquee matchup for the champ at HW or LHW.
Henderson isn't a finisher and I think Gilbert is a more disciplined fighter than Nate to the point where he can make the fight close like Frankie did on the scorecards. Maybe even land enough takedowns to steal some rounds. |
I think Cormier wins pretty easily..
Sure, Mir has experience over him but dude is a beast and he did the same thing to Bigfoot that Cain did.. I think dude is ready for the spotlight.. |
for those unfamiliar with cormier
