Tommorow comes the post fight reviews and news about the rematches… It definitely looks like its a Quinton Jackson Vs Dan Henderson rematch again except his time, we’ll be paying.
UFC75 is literally around the corner, you can smell the blood and the intensity of the event. Take a big sniff, it’s almost here. This is a quick throwdown of some predictions for the event:
Quinton Jackson Vs. Dan Henderson
I’m not going to give this much thought. Last night I watched an interview with Dangerous Dan on the fight network. I am convinced he isn’t as stupid as I thought he was, I actually respect him a lot more and he has the credentials to win this fight. HE can KO Rampage after wearing him down with his wrestling skill. Rampage won’t be slamming Henderson and his wrestling isn’t anywhere nearly as good as Henderson’s and he won’t be knocking him out. Henderson, TKO from the mount bitch!
Matt Hamill Vs. Michael Bisping
I think Bisping is the future of MMA in the UFC. Hamill’s a great wrestler and I have a lot of respect for where he has come from and the challenges he has overcome. I have a lot of respect for him but respect isn’t going to stop Bisping from kicking the crap out of him.
Mirko Cro Cop Vs. Cheick Kongo
This is a big fight but Cro Cop’s got a cage to train in now and he knows what it’s like to take some GnP punishment so he’s more prepped for this fight that the fight he had against Gonzaga. Congo is an experienced fighter but Cro Cop isn’t shy of fighting experience and has the deadliest KO kick potential on the planet. Cro Cop win by KO - left kick!
Marcus Davis Vs. Paul Taylor
Marcus Davis will dance around Taylor and slap him silly, even with his stupid nicknames.
Houston Alexander Vs. Alessio Sakara
Alexander Houston KTFO of Jeith Jardine, talk about complacency. Alexander is strong and can hit home as can Sakara. I’m going with Alexander on this one.
Gleison Tibau Vs. Terry Etim *
I gotta go with Terry Etim but thats personal choice because he’s a scouser (from Liverpool, England) and that’s my peoples yo. He has his work cut out with Tibau, who’s Jiu Jitsu is great and so is his record. This fight should air if the others don’t all go to decisions - it’s going to be a good fight, you have to see it. Etim going to be BIG in the UFC.
Tomasz Drwal Vs. Thiago Silva *
Drwal has fought and beaten a lot of Polish fighters but is unknown to me. Silva on the other hand can stand up and punch a brick wall and win.
Naoyuki Kotani Vs. Dennis Siver *
Kotani for sure, 100% by submission.
Anthony Torres Vs. Jess Liaudin *
Liaudin will knock him out
* Fight may not air.
Now get your comments in on this one! Put your money where your mouth is!
It’s more than just a rumor, reliable sources have told me that he is within a cat’s whisker of signing with the UFC. What about that fight fans, what are your thoughts on that one?! Who wants to see Fedor in the UFC anyway?
PS. While we’re here, it looks like Bodog Fight is going down the pan.
That’s right kids, this ones gonna be in New Jersey which is as close as you can get to New York without having to have a license.
