UFC 130 Thread



Quinton "Rampage" Jackson vs. Matt Hamill
Frank Mir vs. Roy Nelson
Stefan Struve vs. Travis Browne
Jorge Santiago vs. Brian Stann
Thiago Alves vs. Rick Story


Stann continue to impress. Wonder if Dana will trot him out against the winner of Silva/Okami if GSP doesn't move up.

It fucking sucked.

Best part was Browne's sick KO on Struve.

Also Torres beat Johnson easily. Awful decision.

Rampage came to fight Hamill was game...Rick story followed coture game plan to perfection. He displayed quite the chin. And Joe Rogan had the quote of the year. " we're seeing the difference between a true HW, and a guy fighting at HW because he likes food"

Rampage looked to finish, Hamill is just tough, and once he realized he wasn't gettin Rampage down became tentitive and looked to keep distance to keep from gettin knocked into next week.

Not really suprising, as Hamill isn't really known for being enteraining.

Looks like Mir is in the same boat as Fitch in that there's nothing he can do to get on Dana's good side. Mir's performance wasn't that bad at all.

The problem with Mir is he got too big and bulky to compete with guys like Brock and Carwin. He's noticably slower and more sluggish, and it affects his performance really from a cardio perpective, so he has to pace himself so he doesn't gas in 5 minutes.

I agree and disagree. He actually was lighter in the second fight against Brock than he was in their first fight and got smashed. I think that's what prompted him to bulk up in the first place. At the same time he definitely looks sluggish at times.

In general though, it kind of pisses me off that Dana won't give a guy his due because he's in the dog house. Fitch has been a consistent top 3 welterweight for five years now and Dana refuses to give the guy his due and it seems he's doing the same to Mir now.

The Carwin/Nelson fight was supposed to be for the number one contender spot to fight the winner of Velasquez/ Dos Santos. How can Dana say Mir isn't in the running for a title shot after he beat one of those guys and the other is fighting to be number one contender in June? Especially if they're not going to merge the UFC and SF heavyweights.

I wasn't saying he got big for that particular fight, but that he did it to keep up with them. He didn't start bulking up until around the Kongo fight.

And now he's apperently off the vegaterian diet, which is why he was sporting a bit of a waistline.

Struve amazes me. if he can keep his lights on, he'll end up submitting his opponent. Every fight i go in expecting to see his block grt knocked off, he wins. Then this happens, and you wonder if he's getting away with his questionable chin benefits from sitting on 6 foot 7 inch shoulders.

After the Big Country fight, I thought JTTS... Then he co mains a ppv, gets a huge win over a can...but a high profile win nonetheless. And then this...his notorious slow starts need to be addressed. He either needs to get aggressive with his long jab, or he needs to drag a bitch to the ground and use them long limbs to submit his opponents.
