So is CroCop back in the UFC or not, Dana says he signed with Dream but CroCop says he did not. Hated to see the way his fight finished with the eye poke and all. I think it would have ended the same anyway but I never like a controversial finish.

BengalMan · 06-21-2009, 12:58 AM

Yeah the Guida and Diego fight was an all out WAR. Helluva card!

kgoings · 07-08-2009, 11:37 PM

UFC Heavyweight Championship
Brock Lesnar vs. Frank Mir Hopefully Mir can win again

UFC Welterweight Championship
Georges St. Pierre vs. Thiago Alves Love the Pitbull!

Dan Henderson vs. Michael Bisping Can't stand Bisping!
Jon Fitch vs. Paulo Thiago
Yoshihiro Akiyama vs. Alan Belcher
Stephan Bonnar vs. Mark Coleman
Jim Miller vs. Mac Danzig
Dong Hyun Kim vs. T.J. Grant
Jon Jones vs. Jake O’Brien
CB Dollaway vs. Tom Lawlor

TriStar · 07-09-2009, 12:05 AM

Can't wait either! Sickest card ever

Here's my picks:

UFC Heavyweight Championship
Brock Lesnar vs. Frank Mir - Cheering for Mir, but Brock is the type of guy who will hold the title for a long time.

UFC Welterweight Championship
Georges St. Pierre vs. Thiago Alves - Have to go with the hometown boy as always

Dan Henderson vs. Michael Bisping Can't stand Bisping, but I feel an upset...
Jon Fitch vs. Paulo Thiago
Yoshihiro Akiyama vs. Alan Belcher
Stephan Bonnar vs. Mark Coleman
Jim Miller vs. Mac Danzig
Dong Hyun Kim vs. T.J. Grant
Jon Jones vs. Jake O’Brien
CB Dollaway vs. Tom Lawlor
Matt Grice vs. Shannon Gugerty

BengalMan · 07-10-2009, 08:51 AM

Love you picks Kurt, however the only one I'm changing is Jon Jones getting the W. This guy is the future at LHW, and I'm thinking after this fight, he propels himself into some serious main card fights. I believe Bonnar and Coleman will be a war as they both need to win. I'm with you though in that Bonnar gets the win.

Tonight is Lashley vs Bob Sapp...total trainwreck...I will be checking Sherdog instead of paying for this monstrosity...I the fight goes quicker than a box of Anejos at retail

LasciviousXXX · 06-27-2009, 01:50 PM

I will be watching Ultimate Chaos tonite via streaming media. Actually looking forward to seeing what Tom Atencio can do in the ring (he's the VP of Affliction).

Should be interesting if nothing else.

Atencio didn't look bad at all but I don't know about the stoppage. That was uber-weak. We need Atencio vs. Dana.

Chris "The Polish Hammer" Horodecki is really good. Been watching him since he was in the IFL.

Bob Sapp is a shell of his former self but I think Bobby Lashley could be really good. For his next fight, I would like to see him take on somebody that could test him.

trader1974 · 06-28-2009, 07:23 AM

I thought Atencio looked pretty good. I'm not sure about that stoppage either but who knows. I thought they Sapp/Lashley fight was very disappointing, Sapp just kind of galloped into the takedown right out of the gate and that was pretty much it, lol.

Yeah, Sapp pretty much looks for a payday anymore. His heart is no longer in the game, imo.

UFC announces four grappling superfights for Fan Expo 2009

While it may be of little solace to heartbroken Limp Bizkit fans, grappling enthusiasts will be thrilled to learn of the UFC's latest addition to the organization's first-ever fan expo.

While Limp Bizkit recently canceled their previously scheduled concert, Bill Cooper, Ulysses Gomez, Jeff Glover, Vinicius Magalhaes, Fredson Paixao, Rumina Sato and Joe Stevenson will take part in grappling superfights as part of the weekend's Grapplers Quest tournament.

The UFC Fan Expo 2009, held in conjunction with UFC 100, takes place July 10 and 11 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas.
UFC announces four grappling superfights for Fan Expo 2009 in Las Vegas

On Friday, July 10, "The Ultimate Fighter 8" cast member Magalhaes will meet an opponent yet to be determined. While Magalhaes has struggled recently in MMA contests, "Pezao" is an eight-time medalist at the Brazilian jiu-jitsu world championships.

That day's main event will see Gomez, a four-time Palace Fighting Championship veteran and multiple-time grappling champion, meet Shooto legend and 40-fight MMA veteran Sato.

On Saturday, WEC contender and four-time Brazilian jiu-jitsu world champion Paixao meets 22-time Grapplers Quest champion Glover.

Additionally, UFC lightweight contender Stevenson, who recently defeated Nate Diaz on the main card of June's The Ultimate Fighter 9 Finale, meets Cooper, a 22-year-old jiu-jitsu black belt that has earned 24 Grapplers Quest titles.

The grappling superfights are just one of several activities including autograph opportunities, training sessions and product demonstrations available during the fan expo.

Sounds like a win/win to me. No whining Fred Durst and grappling.

LasciviousXXX · 07-05-2009, 12:48 PM

Holy chit! I bet Dana is hot about that!

Tito = yesterday's news
I hope they do fight just to see Fedor rip him a new one.

Bobby Lashley vs. Don Frye in September!!

Lashley, who trains with American Top Team, told the Sherdog Radio Networks Beatdown show he wants to fight twice more in 2009, with the next bout in late August or September. MMA pioneer Don Frye told Fight Network Radio hes in negotiations to fight Lashley, who revealed plans earlier this year to compete inside the Florida-based Extreme Fighting Championship promotion in September.

NCRadioMan · 07-07-2009, 02:04 AM

One was perhaps the greatest light heavyweight of all-time, a feared striker who ruled the 205-pound weight class with an iron right hand and in doing so became mixed martial arts first crossover superstar.

The other was his close friend, a visionary who helped create a brand that is now synonymous with the sport, but who did it not with a ruthless business sense, but with an infectious enthusiasm and an attitude that could light up a room.

On Friday, July 10th, the UFC Hall of Fame inducts its two newest members, former UFC light heavyweight champion Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell and TapouT co-founder, the late, Charles "Mask" Lewis.
