UFC84 Fight Results

BJ Penn is an asshole. I hate the kiss and make up crap at the end of the fight, if I was Sean Sherk an I wasn’t a classy fighter I would have street style socked him one in the face after him doing that blood licking bullshit.

Meanwhile, Wanderlei Silva confirmed his status as an Axe Murderer with a KO on Keith Jardine. It looked scary at times and I think I counted perhaps three but definitely two times when Jardine was knocked out and came to before the final KO.

Goran Reljic looked to be winning the fight initially with kicks and good punches until Wilson Gouveia looked like he was coming back. All of a sudden Goran Reljic flurried and the fight was stopped after a barrage of punches by Reljic were going unanswered and undefended.

Lyoto Machida beat Tito Ortiz in a very tough to watch fight. I was screaming for Tito as Machida stuffed all his takedown attempts and it was hard to watch as Tito was picked at with jabs and flashy kicks. Tito just couldn’t get inside to do his job, Machida fought an intelligent battle with a lackluster demonstration. If this was Tito’s last fight the its a shame that the UFC didn’t give him a good match up – probably Dana’s last knife in the back…

Sokoudjou won, he’ll probably stay in the UFC for a few more fights. Yoshi Yoshida finished with a nice Anaconda Choke that had his opponent asleep for a good few seconds before the referee realized. Shane Carwin KTFO of Christian Wellisch.

All in all a good UFC event worth $50 but a shame that Sean Sherk were boo’d by stupid assholes and that BJ Penn is an asshole too. Hey BJ, take a leaf out of your opponents book, don’t do stupid shit like that blood licking crap and be humble in victory and gracious in defeat.

BJ’s Ready For Sherk

Published on May 9, 2008 in Fight Cards, Fight Previews, Fighters and UFC84. 2 Comments

A source close to BJ Penn recently commented on BJ’s preparation for Sean Sherk. BJ is currently training with WEC 140 lbs champ Urijah Faber out in Hawaii.

It’s well known that BJ Penn and cardio aren’t exactly fond of one another and many insiders see him being at a disadvantage in this fight because of his lack of conditioning. This is especially true as Sherk is famous for grinding fights out into the later rounds and not necessarily aiming to finish his opponents but  APPARENTLY, BJ’s cardio is tip-top right now.

BJ’s BJJ coach (wait a minute… what the hell did I just say?) Charuto, even went so far as to say that BJ would take Sherk down. And I quote:

“BJ will take Sherk down.”

See….. I told you he said that!

Come May 24th we will find out just whom will be taking down whom and whether BJ really has been training or just suckin’ back them cheeseburgers!

UFC84 Possible Fighters

Published on February 21, 2008 in Fight Cards, Fight Rumors and UFC84. 6 Comments

Main event is rumored to be Sean Sherk vs. BJ Penn for the lightweight championship. Here are other fights to be confirmed:

  • Keith Jardine vs. Wanderlei Silva
  • Rashad Evans vs. Thiago Silva
  • Jeremy Stephens vs. Terry Etim
  • Rousimar Palhares vs. Ivan Salaverry
  • Goran Reljic vs. Wilson Gouveia
  • Dong-Hyun Kim vs. Jason Tan

A very lackluster fight card apart from the lightweight bout and the rumors of Tito Ortiz vs. Lyoto Machida can’t be true because Tito recently said he won’t fight in the UFC again as long as Dana is president.

Other sources have revealed that Tito will fight but this is his last in the UFC. This is what happens when you are spoiled rotten, he has no chance to fight against big name (big purse) fighters because Dana hates him. The onlyonption is to flee to greener pastures. He’ll probably be seeing Tim “Overrated” Sylvia and Andrei Arlovski leaving the UFC soon too.
