If you can find a clip of the Yamamoto KO check it out. A sick right left combo ended his night viciously. and poor Kawajiri got destroyed by Masato

K-1 SPOILER




Kid Yamamoto got KTFO today at the K-1 event. That's two losses in a row for him. I'm 2 minutes away from having the event downloaded

Fuck. That sucks. I wish Kid could make it over to the states.

It was under K-1 rules, so not a second MMA loss, but still, a KO like that is never good to take

Yeah Joe Silva said that to Joe Rogan after the GSP fight.

I think it'll be Swick and I guess he has earned the shot, but I just don't think he's ready for GSP just yet. Hopefully we get Silva/GSP first.

I think Swick or Kampmann are going to be "best of the available" challengers, whichever it is. Swick has no true quality wins in his UFC career. Kampmann has Leities, which was nearly 3 years ago now. Whichever one wins this fight, that's going to be one be probably the most impressive win on their resume, which isn't a great sign. Ah well, blame GSP for clearing out the division of real challengers...

Swick is my boy, but he will get dismantled by GSP

[Kuzzy Powers]

Does anyone think there really is anyone in the WW division that can fuck with GSP at this point? Even outside of the org? I just dont see anyone..

I love anthony rumble Johnson but he's not ready quite yet, and he won't fight anderson Silva until he defends his title a couple more times. I'm thinking maybe someone at middlewight will realize they're not going to beat anderson silva, and drop to WW

[Bigpapa42]

Didn't Johnson just get charged with a bunch of felonies or something?

I finally managed to find the Pride 2006 Open Weight Tournament Final. I've seen most of the fights but never the actual show as a whole. Man, what a card. Anyone who looks at UFC 100 and buys the "biggest show ever" hype needs to watch some Pride. What really stood out to me was how good Crocop looked at that point. Especially in the fight against Wanderlei... Everyone has seen the kick, but the whole fight was all Mirko. His striking was just so clean and crisp... He was amazing at that point...

only some what interesting fight would be shields, but his stand up and takedows are not up to par, if he could reverse or sweep GSP he might be able to pull something off but I doubt it

[The Buddha]

Kampmann did beat Condit...wouldnt that be a "quality" win?
