Cung Le relinquishes title. Miller vs Shields now for title.

:roll: Semantic meandering bull****. I cant even be bothered to answer this.

 

Im more intrigued as to why he struggled to make weight? He had no problems making 85 for his fight with Lindland. But struggled to make 196? And did he look softer or was that just me?

 

How is the fact that people were fighting full on vale tudo fights before Bruce Lee existed semantics?

Bruce Lee brought fancy kung fu moves that look neat in movies to a few people in hollywood.

In terms of fighting, he did nothing compared to guys like Dempsey, Kano, Helio, and a million other people.

 

It wouldn't be a huge surprise, but Belfort is a pretty clear underdog; betting sites agree with me.

It's not like I'm saying Franklin is a stone cold lock, just that he's likely going to win.

 

Well thank god. Cung Le is arguably the most overrated fighter in MMA. Hes a fighter who became incredibly popular from fighting tomato cans and past their prime legends. Hes acting because he knows hes at the point in his career where he has to fight legit fighters. And he knows hes going to lose when he does.

 

And im quite confident Franklin is going to win. But Belfort is dangerous. Good hands, good power.

But overall, not a main event im particularly interested in.

 

Forrest Griffin

Gina Carano.

Coutures two favorite pupils, recent results?

Wanderlei Silva, Coutures most recent high level project. Recent results?


Couture is probably the best place in the world to train because of all the other pros and great trainers, but its not magic.

You don't become great through osmosis.

 

Belfort is primarily an ultra talented boxer with a take down defence, the odd knee, the odd sub etc He is like Liddel. He has so many other parts of his game that we don't get to see. Sure, Chuck has a takedown defence but would you honestly guess he was as good at wrestling as his history details!

I'd love to see Belfort fight like a black belt BJJ and add a little more to his striking.

 

Yea I understand all that, and obviously good trainers make you a better fighter.

But just because somebody is training with so and so doesn't mean they will become unbeatable. Lots of bad fighters come from good gyms as well.

All I was saying was that Couture doesn't automatically heal bad habits, he just is a good trainer, not a guarantee to win, just like all the other good fighters. If he was, Trigg wouldn't have got flatlined tonight.

 

He did very well; but like I said, I didn't really insult him or call him a bad fighter, just thought it was more likely that Franklin would win.

If Vitor can keep this form up he will do well, if he goes back to what he always goes back to he will end up with what he always ends up with.
