    They should ban children it's ruining the fight game. Look how much Wandy has mellowed

    True. I think CC biggest battle has always been his own mind.
     
  3. i'm sure it is lack of desire, if you're not into your next fight 100% then its a waste of time for everyone isn't it? however i can understand that of course, but cro cop shouldn't of agreed to fight. he did say he took the fight on as a favour to the ufc as they have been good to him, but the fight was no favour to anyone.

    i never watched pride, was cro cops opposition back then up to par, or was it weak?

    You look at everyones physique in pride and as you say, Crocop was filled up hard muscle. Same with Shogun. Wand was another one. We know Barnett is an abuser.
    I cant stand the guy but I think Rampage may be the only one not using in pride at the time.

    Not saying that the UFC is clean but they are using something abit different than what the Pride guys were using. Pride fighters werent regulated so they just inject themselves with very basic stuff

    Decent night of fights shame those three fights couldn't really kick in to gear like Sherks or Serra Vs Lytle which was just insane if Chris didn't have such a good chin it would of been unbelievably entertaining. Any time matt threw something i was just expecting Chris to laugh it off.

    Bader looked extremely average tonight, don't even want to try and remember the Mir fight.

    That doesn't prove anything. Roids help burn fat. Crocop's body looks soft and loose, not just because of the fat. He doesn't have the same completeness that guys on roids often have. He looks smaller than before even if he is heavier. He looks weak. It's conjecture, so I am not going to argue as a fact whether or not he was on roids. Just a theory that could be a contributing factor.

    I'm not saying roids are everything, for the most part I stress his age/lack of desire.

    He fought prime Fedor, beat prime Barnett twice, knocked out Alex, half killed Wanderlei, beat Coleman, beat Igor, fought Big Nog.

    His record is impressive.

    Interested in where they go with Bader from here. Jones would **** him up, but they could feed him to him I guess.

    Clearly not ready to move in the Shogun, Lyoto, Rampage, Rashad league. Little Nog was awful and I'd still have given him the decision.

    Maybe Forrest Griffin or something, but I'd take Forrest over him at this point.

    Bader was out of ideas after Nog got back up in the 1st.
    And the judging needs serious overhaul pronto

    It kind of makes me wonder if Roids should be legal in MMA, at least at heavyweight. It might de-legitimize the sport, but people watch MMA for sheer entertainment, to see some gorillas smash each other. There is art in the lower divisions, though.

    Pride was so entertaining because it had this epic superhero/comic book feel to it. Superhuman roid monkeys and freaks of all shapes and colors. it was like Street Fighter games.

    Yeah I have no idea where they are going to bring him now. Looked shockingly bad tonight all the steam built up behind him got took out of him tonight. Shocking stand up and really poor ground and pound. The take downs were the only thing i could see that won him that but even saying that Nog was quick to get up on most of them. Don't think they should move him forward maybe keep him in against fighters on the fringe maybe the loser of some fights coming up or the winner of Hamill vs Ortiz.

    You've convinced me. The could rebrand it as Ultimate Pharmaceuticals Championship
    In the corner between rounds they could have a coach, cutman and chemist.
