UFC just bought Strikeforce :o

gonna cause some disgruntlement :P

holy shower! that's some pretty big news in MMA circles!! :o

yeah HP, Jones is exciting to watch - i only saw some hilights in one of the UFC Countdowns but there was vision of him fighitng Mark Hamill (I think) and Jones just tossed him around like a rag-doll ... and Hamill is a big dude ...

as soon as I saw Daley try to king-hit Koscheck from behind quite a bit after the final bell, i knew he would get released by the UFC ... you just can't have that sort of shower happening in any sport ... i can't believe Daley is taking the moral high ground on this, saying he won't fight his Strikeforce welterweight title fight now, cos he's crying he'd be making Dana money ... that's laughable ... ;D

not all Brits are too feral, Dan Hardy didn't disrespect GSP even though GSP didn't think much of Hardy - we all knew who was goin to win that one though ... ;)

dudes like Koscheck, Chael Sonnen, etc, etc are just doing it to make themselves more marketable and make the fights bigger - must be something about the American market but they need that WWE/boxing puffery to draw in fans but if i was honest with myself, i may not have gone to watch Rampage v Evans live if they hadn't have had the vebal to and fro in the lead up to the fight ... ;)

UFC 128 this Sunday, 20 March 2011 - from around 1300 AEDT.

Main event is the UFC light heavyweight (93kg limit) title bout between Mauricio "Shogun" Rua v Jon "Bones" Jones.

Rua is defending the title for the first time since winning his rematch with Lyoto Machida back in May 2010.
Jones is the new wunderkind on the block and it is very interesting to see the bookies put him in as a current favourite over Rua ... ? (but at least the odds have come in a little bit, $1.50 for Jones v $2.50 for Rua)

Main card
Light Heavyweight Championship bout: MaurÃcio Rua (c) vs. Jon Jones
Bantamweight bout: Urijah Faber vs. Eddie Wineland
Lightweight bout: Jim Miller vs. Kamal Shalorus
Middleweight bout: Nate Marquardt vs. Dan Miller
Heavyweight bout: Mirko Filipović vs. Brendan Schaub

Bottom two fights should be pretty interesting too - will be interesting to see if Filipovic ("CroCop") has anything left against another young up and comer in Schaub. Marquardt v Miller was s'posed to be Marquardt v Akiyama but Akiyama pulled out (I've seen reports he was concerned about the earthquake repercussions for his family or something like that) - Miller should be a more than adequate replacement so still hoping that one is a corker!

Hopefully i'll get to watch live this time! ;D

Jon Jones is one of my favourite fighters. He is so exciting in the ring and is still only 23 yet he has defeated some big names in UFC. He beat Ryan Bader back in early Feb to give Bader his first professional loss, and only twice has he let the fight go to decisions. The only loss he has was against Matt Hamill who he was smashing, with the commentators saying they had never seen Hamill take a beating like that before, which I hadn't either. He only lost due to disqualification for using his elbows to hit Hamill straight down in the face instead of from coming from an angle.

You rarely see the challenger get named favourite with the bookies, but I can see why they have. This guy will be an absolute star!

RiOtChEsS · March 20, 2011, 05:20:46 PM

didnt see the fight but all reports r Jones made Rua look 2nd tier and dominated him :o :o :o :P :P :P :P :D ;D ;)
