Yea, but that fight was a looooong time ago. I think like 6 yrs? Liddel has gotten so much better since then.

I watched Hughes vs Trigg 2. Trigg had hin 3 times. Couldnt put the guy down. I mean Trigg really fucking had a victory. He had a rear naked choke position on him that he wasnt able to complete. He caught Hughes off guard and put him to the ground and gave him a pounding when Hughes paused for a moment to argue a low blow. Hughes still manage to survive and get a rear naked choke on Trigg. Hughes is amazing.

Hughes was on another planet that night. The fight should have been stopped for the low blow. The comeback was amazing but including a bloody Oklahoma Slam for good measure was unbelievable. BJ Penn wouldn't last 3 minutes with Hughes again.

Mir refused to fight him. He was stripped of the title last week and now Arlovski is the official UFC heavyweight champ. He'll still want to smash up Mir though. I honestly can't see Mir having a hope. Arlovski is right up there with Fedor Emelianenko and Mirko Cro Cop.

Sorry multiple posts from me here guys but I thought I might as well post news now too. Frank Trigg just announced on MMA radio he got released.

By the way, is it just me or does Dana White think he is the next Vince McMahon the way he acts?

Dana seems to be more straight foreward than Vince, just by their appearances in Tough Enough and the Ultimate Fighter

But seriously, why the fuck do you quit after dropping 15 pounds out of 20 pounds to make weight. You have Rich fucking Franklin in the sauna with you by your side. That heavyweight quit after another got injured. I mean what did he expect, he was gonna be filmed for a few weeks.

Trigg had nowhere to go. I think he would have quit soon enough on his own. For the better, at least right now.

As for Dana White, I've noticed he doesn't mind getting himself on the TV. At least he isn't a big talker like Vince.

Hey! I think Chuck is easy top 3 pound for pound toughest guys in MMA. I just had to point out he lost twice by stoppage in the 6 years he lost to Horn.

I can't believe two guys quit. QUIT! Unbelievable.

Yeah a little late but the only reason Trigg had Hughes is because he cheap shotted him in the nuts. Didn't matter though, still couldn't take Hughes out.

I'm trying to download the show now (since we don't get it in England). I just had a wicked feeling that Vanderlai Silva would get beat. I'm dying to see Fedor vs. Arlovski in the UFC though (since Pride have never sent anyone to UFC in return).

I'm so fucking pissed at my DVR tonight. Last week I set it to record TUF2 on Monday nights. It wanted to record from 10:05 to 11:00, but I changed to go to 11:15 because it always runs that long anyway. The stupid thing sets the extended recording time for only last week, then puts the rest of them back to end at 11. So I'm watching tonights episode, 2 rounds of pretty decent action then commercial break and BAM no more left on the recording.

I read that Melvin lost, but I would love to see his reaction. All that talk and he was the first one beaten, haha.

i dont blame Mir for not wanting a to fight AA right now. If Mir fights in december im sure he'll fight a "lower grade" fighter. then id like to see him fight the winner of AA/Sylvia (which i think will be next after he runs through Buentello). Settle the HW title while all 3 of them are healthy.

Mir wants absolutely none of Arlovski. They were willing to wait and give him a warm up fight before hand and he refused to sign for it.

I finally downloaded and watched Pride Final Conflict 2005. I dunno, I like UFC better. The 10-5-5 thing for rounds kinda seems to encourage slower paced matches. They could also really benefit from a cage type ring, its ridiculous to break up fighters and move them back to the middle.

I'm liking the latest rumors going around for the UFC. They took the Tanner v. Loiseau fight off of UFC55 and moved it to an Oct 3rd Monday Night PPV. That fight was one of the only fights I really cared to see on the PPV and now I can see it free. UFC56 is going to be co-headlined by the TUF2 coaches. Hughes will fight Karo and make quick work of him. Franklin is rumored to be facing Nate Quarry. That match will be amazing.

Oh, and they're talking Liddel v. Couture III for Feb.

No chance. The PPV in feb is going to be the night before the Super Bowl. They need something HUGE. Liddell v. Couture III would draw waaaaay more than Liddel v. Rampage.

Hell, if they're smart they'll do something like Bonnar v. Griffin II that night also.
