Randy Couture is so good he makes me want to cry
What is next for Randy? He obliterated James Toney, which wasn't much of a surprise but he looked damn good in doing it. Can you believe this guy? He was in great shape, maybe bigger than I have ever seen him, and he was as sleak and fast as we have ever seen him.

Word has it he is going back to 205. What fights await him? Is the title still in the picture for Couture? I have herd him say he just wants "interesting fights" that he isn't hunting the gold. But you can't deny anybody if they are as good as Randy, and say he picks up another win or two, depending upon the opponent but more than likely if the quality was good enough he would have to get a shot.

Also how much longer do you think he will fight for UFC? Long enough to see Couture/Fedor?

Randy is arguably the greatest fighter that MMA has seen in it's relatively short time frame.

I personally would like to see him drop down to 205. The heavy weight division is just getting to big for his smaller frame, and I see him having more success in the light heavy weight division.

I kind of want to see him keep on taking these freakshow fights like he's been doing. Sylvia, Lesnar, Toney... he's taken some weird fights. I'm not sure he's able to legitimately compete for gold anymore sadly, but I'd love to see him continue still.

No.. Once Randy transitioned from the mount to side control and actually sunk in the arm triangle to where it would need to be to choke a guy with that big of shoulders out with a triangle, Tony tapped the air upward.. No defense involved as he was submitting..

What would you like to see for him next? He wants "interesting" fights, I think Jon "Bones" Jones would be a VERY interesting fight. Or even a TV Spike TV Main Event against Stephan Bonnar.

Truthfully, I'd like to see him fight Rampage.. It's kinda a win-win for the UFC even though it might be make or break for Rampage.. Rampage needs a BIG win to get him back into title contention and if Randy loses to him, it wouldn't hurt Randy at all.. If Couture wins, it prolly wouldn't hurt Rampage that bad cause it's Captain America..

If would be a big money fight which could def help Rampage if he was to win..

I like him too, but i was shaking my head at you going on and on about him and how amazing he was because of his performance against james toney. I mean come on now. Any wrestler/grappler would have done the exact same thing successfully and probably any striker that actually trained a takedown in training camp for that matter.

Yea randy is good and one of the most accomplished fighters out there, but to say hes the best is stretching it. Hes a crafty vet that picks his spots.

i also was shaking my head at any reference to a fedor/couture fight.... common man, no one has been asking for that fight since randy lost the belt and especially now that fedor lost.

I was just so happy that Couture demolished him, what is wrong with that? And I think now that Fedor has lost he is a better match for Couture and it would be a tougher fight to call. Still would be f'n huge.

Randy is decorated but has a bunch of losses on his record from various possitions while fedor's lone legit loss came from being overly aggressive in probably the best heavyweight gaurd in all of BJJ let alone MMA.

Randy does have alot of loses but, he is constantly evolving.. He is constantly changing his game unlike Fedor, who has fought the same in pretty much every fight..

I think the fight would be in Randy's favor at the moment. He has momentum and like Fly said, he is evolving. Fedor, hopefully learned and evolved as well. To pit them one on one now, when the time is still ripe for both men to put on a great fight and show the world who is the best fighter.

Just because I don't think the same way everybody or anybody else does, doesn't make me stupid. I talk from a place of opinion where I see it.

I think if there were a time for Randy to beat Fedor, it's now. If I were UFC I'd give him (Fedor) whatever he wants, just to do this one match.

what has randy done lately that shows this crazy evolution???


Yes he was ahead of the curve, but its caught up to him now. I wouldnt really say hes evolved that much... he still fights the exact same style minus this last fight. Lokk at what hes done..


He shocked chuck liddel, and couldnt touch him since, he came back and beat sylvia which is in my opinion his greatest achievement. He beat an unbelievably over hyped gabe gonzaga, which is the fight that made everyone hard for randy. He gave lesnar a tough fight, but you have to remember lesnar was pacing himself and he caught randy on the feet.... not good. He then gets his shit pushed in by nogiera, who is on a huge downslide, and could have very easily lost the fight with vera because of how close it was. Now he goes on to beat coleman and toney, do i really have to say anything about either guy?

How can you say fedor hasnt evolved? How would you know? He is dynamic on the feet and on the ground. minus one guy, hes destroyed everyone hes faced. I think that demonstrates evolution.

Winning isn't everything in MMA.. If you think Randy is still fighting with the same skill set he used to beat Rizzo or Tito or even Chuck you are being blind..

The fact is evolution while training is the ONLY reason Randy is still fighting.. Fedor is great, but the whole Fedor/Randy talk was because both were considered the best HWs in the world at the time.. Randy is better at LHW, especially now, with beasts like Lesnar and Carwin walking around.. Even with his one loss, if you still consider Fedor in that elite HW status, then the talks should be him vs Lesmar, or the winner of Lesnar/Carwin 2, which I, as a huge Pride/Fedor supporter over the years, dont think The Last Emporor could handle..

So the talks should actually remain with Randy/Fedor..

Fedor is a great fighter, but Randy is the best gameplanner in the game, ever.. I think Captain America could do alot of damage in close and if he got top position, I don't think Fedors grappling is close to the level of his.. At the same time, Fedor is a beast who can take brutal punishment and deliver viscious strikes from any and all positions..

It would a be a great fight..

The fact that you are questioning Couture's legacy makes my dick hurt..

WHAT?? Ummmmm yes it is. Thats why randy is looked at so highly and anyone who beats him get praised by the public and had fedor WON against werdum, there wouldnt be any doubters

Again... WHAT EVOLUTION?? How has his style changed since he fought sylvia? He pushes guys into the cage and beats them up and tries to get the takedown. Every fight has been like this since this last one with toney. Seriously what he did to toney was NOT impressive. He hit a shot that would either put him in serious submission trouble or get stuffed by almost any other mma fighter.

Those still are the talks outside of an immediate rematch with werdum. just not here for some reason.

I think Fedor could beat Randy. The 2 or 3 times that Brandon Vera actually threw strikes out proved that he can't handle a whole lot of damage. Fedor would beat him standing and probably keep it reasonably even on the ground. He's pretty old. It's probably time for Randy to hang it up before he ends up facing the wrong guy and getting seriously hurt.

You keep acting like his fight with Sylvia was at UFC 22 in 98 or something.. That fight was 3 years ago, in 2007, which was 21 years into his professional fighting career..

Like what super match in UFC would you like to see??

Carwin should be mentioned but until he proves better cardio, he couldn't hang..

I just think Fedor/Couture would be the best ATM..

You really think respecting Randy Couture is "sucking his dick"??

The dud is almost 50 years old and still dominant in a sport where most guys are done at 35..

I never actually said fedor would dominate couture, but you were completely writing off fedors skills which is crazy. He loses one fight, and randy beats fuckin james toney, and you and jordan are going crazy on how hes the best fighter ever.

The Coleman fight was due to the fact that they were supposed to fight in 98 for the HW title but Couture got hurt and Pete Williams ended up stepping in and posterizing Coleman with the headkick KO..

The Toney fight was Dana White proving a point..

So Randy is now taking the blame for (in YOUR opinion only) bad booking by White and Silva??

As I said, one was a "legends" fight that was supposed to happen 12 years ago, the other was Dana White proving a point..

I just don't see how that is Randy's fault..

Respecting Randy Couture is one thing. Making a thread about this guy who beat a fucking nobody in the MMA world (no matter how hard Dana spun it), and a guy fucking older than him in his last two fights is a bit of dick sucking. Neg rep me all you want, but you don't quite put a shining light on MMA fans right now either.

but to add to this 'conversation', which looks like a circle jerk...Couture is pretty okay right now, and I"m absolutely glad that he knows his place...he says he only wants 'interesting fights'...Aren't title matches interesting? That's not what he means though. He want's solid fights because he knows he isn't near the caliber of fighter to challenge for a chip in HW or LHW. He's a nice, old, Gatekeeper.
