I'm not asking who you think is gonna win. I'm simply asking who would you rather see win ? (based on pure favoritism or for any other personal reasons). The next huge fights are Mir vs Lesnar Penn vs GSP Arlovski vs Fedor. (but i'm not gonna bother with that one) I'm gonna be honest , and i'll directly pic Mir. Again , i don't know if he'll pull it off. But he's got qualities that i like... 1 - he isn't arrogant like Lesnar. 2 - afterall , he used to be the champ before his accident. 3 - i'd rather see a much more well rounded & experienced champion. Penn vs GSP.... I'd like to see GSP take this one...And no i'm not french canadian (though i speak the language) but... 1 -not as pretentious as Penn. (like i said before ,i prefer the humble type) 2 -he's imo , generally more fun & entertaining to watch. (stylistically) And i guess , that's about it...In terms of pure skills...they're more or less on the same level. Note: against any other fighter , i'd always root for Penn though. (at least within ufc competition)
I'm going with Mir over Lesnar because he is too seasoned for Lesnar. Lesnar could study submissions every day since he fought Mir and he will still be years behind Mir. Mir is large enough that he can handle being in the ring with Lesnar. He's not a small heavyweight like Couture. Fedor is too Fedor for Arloski. I see him outstriking Arlovski, dumping him on his head -then hooking a quick submission. It might be early and it might be late - but that's the way it will go down. I think GSP is too well rounded for Penn. Penn is on top of his game right now - but so is GSP. GSP outworked Penn in the closing rounds of their first fight and will likey do the same this time around.
I'm going with Lesnar, you say be honest, there you go, people can keep denying and doubting Lesnar but the truth is the man is destined to dominate whether we like it or not I'm going with BJ, hes my favorite fighter. I honestly believe hes better and has the higher level of tecnique, either he proves that or he doesnt. I'm going with Fedor, but again honestly, if he loses to AA, it will tarnish his reputation big time, especially him not being in the UFC, he will be just another loss again from oblivion and people will be saying "see I told you Pride and all those cans he fought aint all that" thats the truth.
mir, penn, fedor.... id like to see mir win, i dont dislike lesnar, he has been cast as the panto villain, but is much better than most seem to surmise, and seems to be a likeable character away from it all, who lives life in his style, with his own rules, away on his farm huntin and fishin.....its just that im soft hearted....!!..a mir win would be a great punctuation mark on the big guys career....he can be undermotivated for sure, but hell, the guy has had some personal demons and i think a victoy against lesnar would be validation of sorts for mir.....
I cant stand seeing a lazy slob win. I want Lesnar to fight. Talk all you want about how good Mir looks, he looks like a fat ass to me. He doesn't look like he has an overly heavy build, like Sylvia, who has skin flaps from the effort he has put in.. He looks like a lazy, pudgy fighter. I hope he tries to go southpaw and box with Lesnar. I just want to see Penn at his best, and I want to see GSP at his best. I honestly think this is a very ****ing good matchup if both fighters are fighting for their lives. BJ has some of the best balance I have ever seen, it is amazing to see how effective it can be used in fighting. GSP, just a total freak with superb skills, fleet of foot and a good thinker in the ring. Fedor, is Fedor.
Lesnar Gsp Arlovski(Due to the fact it would take a performance of the century to defeat Fedor which is something i would love to witness).
Thats also why I want Arlovski to win because it would be such a moment even if its a blowout win but the moment where you know he won would be incredible it will be the biggest upset in MMA history IMO even though Arlovski is great in his own right. I like Fedor but honestly im hoping he loses soon I like underdogs I just dont wanna see no freak shows or assholes beating a guy like Fedor. Arlovski is a cool and hard working cat he would deserve it if he could pull it off.
Prettymuch everything u said is the reason why i picked AA..Im the Ozziebattler for godsake.lol... Which is a term in Australia for the underdog etc...
This is a reason why I love this world. I learn something new every day did not know that bro. But man I just love the dramatic moments in life the moments that you see and its like wow ill carry this with me until the day I die.
Maybe I will I dont have a nickname and not having one is kinda boring. My next fight maybe ill use it if I win ill keep using it.
