Jackdripah Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Mga Sir, Baka meron kayo copy nung fight RUA vs JONES. Pahingi naman po ng copya or link para ma watch yung buong fight. Thanks Quote Link to comment
JustSmile=) Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 totally agree bro. i felt the same way about the GSP vs Koschek II trailer. that for me is still the best ufc trailer (esp. since i'm a GSP fanboy). i hated the song they used but it just sounded like the perfect song when i saw the trailer.I love this trailer because this is one of my SF vs UFC dream matches (back when Jake was with SF), this fight will be very interesting if it hits the ground. Shields can tap anybody from the ground (as long as he does not gas out like his last fight with Kampmann) Quote Link to comment

sujiro Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Anderson reacts to Jon Jones wins and the possible superfight between them. http://www.ultmma.com/news/index.php?itemid=1531 Phoenix, AZ -- English author Henry Taylor's famous quote about greatness was said well before the 2011 sports culture where an athlete can become a star overnight. On Saturday night mixed martial arts top pound for pound fighter Anderson Silva (28-4) watched possible future all-time great Jon Jones (13-1) take his place alongside the six other current UFC title holders. Silva made a rare appearance in the state of Arizona to corner two of his training partners at Rage in the Cage 150 at the Wild Horse Pass Casino. Stationed in the fighter's locker room at 9:15 PST Silva and his team settled in a front row seat around a small screen that was broadcasting UFC 128. When the UFC's 185 pound champion sat in his folding chair the rest of locker room, filled mostly with local amateur fighters, huddled around Silva with one eye on the tiny screen and the other looking for any reaction from one of the sport's living legends. Silva, dressed head to toe in black and yellow Sinister brand clothing, sat and spoke nothing more than the occasional Portuguese whisper to his team as both champion Mauricio Rua (19-5) and the challenger Jones walked to the cage. With his hand planted on his chin Silva watched the first round of Rua vs. Jones in silence. With 90 seconds to go in the first round Jones let Rua up after manhandling him on the ground. Observing the fight Silva in English stated "It's over, it's over," with a minute remaining in the round and Jones looking like the UFC's new 205 pound champion. Towards the end of the opening round of the Rua vs. Jones bout, RITC 150 had to come to its intermission and a collection of ring card girls, staff members as well as Jones's previous opponent Ryan Bader joined the locker room masses in viewing the title fight. A spinning back elbow from Jones in the second round brought forth a moment of gleeful raw emotion from Silva as the Brazilian reached for his own cranium and hooted in delight at the improvisational striking display. For the reminder of the fight Silva sat focused on the screen while the crowd gathered behind him booed and cheered Jones's championship display. When the fight was halted Silva's film study stopped and his role as cornerman to fighters Paulo Goncalves Silva and Damaso Pereira began. When asked to evaluate Jon Jones performance Silva abandoned his native language and conducted an interview in English. "Tonight, Jon Jones he is amazing. This is new for Jon Jones." Silva said "Jon Jones will go on with more fights, more experience, more techniques. My opinion is Jon Jones is the best, he will be a champion for a longtime." With a potential super-fight between UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre in his crosshairs Silva dismissed any notions of moving between weight classes at this juncture of his career. Despite internet rumors or even a post-fight tweet from UFC owner Lorenzo Fertitta about the possibility of a Silva vs. Jones fight, the current MMA pound for pound king refuses to chase opponents. "I'm very happy. I have my problems (at middleweight)." Silva said. "I'm very happy where I'm working, with my technique and my team. I don't have any plans up or down. I'm very happy." Iron sharpens iron and greatness begets greatness. When MMA's current ruler watches the sport's fastest rising star become the youngest UFC champion in the promotion's history there is a level of greatness to the lens which Anderson Silva views that moment. Will the 35 year old Anderson Silva ever stand across the cage from a 23 year old Jon Jones? If, you listen to Silva's words, without the normal filter of a Portuguese to English interpreter, the answer is an causal "no thank you". A MMA world without a Silva-Jones super-fight is a landscape that will not affect either man's legacy or diminish the importance of his accomplishments in the sport. - i know AS is very consistent that we wants to retire in MW prior to Chael fight, in that time i believe Bones latest win was against "the janitor" or brandor vera, just a rising star and not yet a beast he is known today..im a big AS fan, but this seems that he is ducking Jon Jones..i cant blame, Jones is the largest LHW in the world, he will have a hard time defeating that guy..Jones just drawfed Bader, who is a huge LHW..but, i hope im wrong and that AS just said that so that Zuffa can pay him more money..wish that fight will happen asap, since AS is getting past his prime..

theluffy99 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 na tmz pa pala itong si jones he was meditating before the fight when suddenly a woman screamed she was robed..so jones chased the robber and beat the hell out of him..sana taga cubao si jones =D Quote Link to comment
riceb0i Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 machida is a bad matchup for bones jones in my opinionlyoto just needs to win 2 or 3 in a row to be considered a top contender again though Quote Link to comment
Olympus Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I'm not surprised with how SIlva answered about the possibility of him fighting jones, I believe he's giving it enough time to study Jones if and when they meet in the cage Quote Link to comment
sujiro Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) what if Machida losses to Randy? should Randy be in the title mix? since he defeated a former champ. it would be crazy, if Randy fights Jones for the title.. Edited March 24, 2011 by sujiro Quote Link to comment
riceb0i Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 the possibility of Randy beating Lyoto for me is bleak... stylistically Machida's style is anti-wrestling/dirty boxingit would really be entertaining if Randy is able to keep Lyoto or even get Lyoto in the clinch, and takedown defense wise Machida has a damn good base and is really hard to take down... even Nakamura a judoka had trouble taking him down, and then them wrestlers like Rashad, Page, Tito had difficulty taking him down. Cap doesn't have the KO power to down Machida but heck it's MMA and we might be in for a surprise Quote Link to comment
sujiro Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 yup..MMA is very unpredictable..and you can never discount a guy like Couture.he is been an underdog in all of his fights, yet he still manages to win.. win or lose,im a big Couture fan, but i hope Machida keeps on winning so he can challege Jones asap.but, it will take time since he came from back-to-back losses.. Quote Link to comment
Olympus Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 For Couture to beat Machida, he must be able cut corners effectively and pin machida against the cage and rough him up in the clinch...It will also be a wise move for Randy to push the pace and test the gas tank of Lyoto Quote Link to comment
maddromeo Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) hey guys, just noticed this..i am not discrediting the win of Jones, but it seems that sometimes he is going beyond the rules.though this didnt change the outcome of the fight..cant find the gifs, but if you rewatched it you can see what im talking about. lists of fouls under the unified rules#1.Butting with the Head1st round - 25 seconds remaining. Jones headbutt the stomach of Shogun #12. Throat strikes of any kind1st round - 2:29. Jones elbowed the throat of Rua1st round - 2 seconds remaining hit again the throat of Shogun2nd round - 30 seconds remaining, elbowed again the throat. Herb Dean, warned him about that.2nd round - 13 seconds remaining, elbowed again True... Jones did some illegal strikes, same as the the Hammil fight 12-6 elbows. He even knee'd Rua while one knee was down. After that Shogun was never the same... thou I still believe Jones would have beat Shogun but not that fast, he made it looked so easy! That Jackson camp is something... "magulang" rin tlga! Hehe... By the way UFC bought Strikeforce... Big fights coming!!! Next in line Bellator! Hahaha...

riceb0i Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 i still think Brandon Vera won that fight against Randy Couture though... Quote Link to comment
JustSmile=) Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Wow! That was the first time I saw a twister submission! Looks like a modified spine crank.. Awesome job by the Korean Zombie! If that does not win submission of the night, I don't know what will.. Quote Link to comment
JustSmile=) Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Rumble Johnson imposed his wrestling on Hardy.. GSP showed everybody how to beat Hardy and now even a striker will take Hardy down.. Too bad for him.. Now who can he beat in WW? Main event na.. Go Phil Davis! Quote Link to comment
JustSmile=) Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Key word of the night - Wrestling! Phil Davis won using wrestling as well.. Just a thought, lets see the current UFC champs: HW: Cain VelasquezLHW: Jon JonesMW: Anderson SilvaWW: GSPLW: Frankie EdgarFW: Jose AldoBW: Dominick Cruz From those bunch only Anderson Silva and Jose Aldo does not use wrestling. Of course Anderson would have lost if he had not caught Chael. Aldo, on the other hand has (in my opinion) Chad Mendes as a serious contender which is also a wrestler. My point? May mga Pinoy MMA practioners ba na may wrestling background? Quote Link to comment
CorpseGrinder Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 (edited) wow, Phil Davis is really making a name in the lhw division. i wanna see him fight a good wrestler next time that can exploit his skills. what the f#&k happen to dan hardy? after his loss to gsp, his career was on a downward spiral. is that a crippler crossface? impressive submission win by zombie.

By the way UFC bought Strikeforce... Big fights coming!!! Next in line Bellator! Hahaha... i dont remember he kneed Rua while he was down..maybe ur talking about the shin-to-the-face while Rua's left arm is still down..nsa GIF ko ata yun sa taas..pro, im not sure about that, kc patayo na rin c Shogun nun.. and i wonder why the throat strikes didnt get any publicity.he did it a number of times..it seems that Jones uses illegal strikes when the things didnt goes his ways..kya nga yung appeal nila sa DQ against the Hamill fight didnt materialize..he cant finish Hamill on that fight, kya natempt xa mag 12-6 elbows..the same with Shogun fight, though the throat strikes didnt do any significant damage..Jones is amazing, but i hope he can correct his actions..overhyped pa rin xa..he's talented but he beat the Shogun who isnt 100%..though i doubt if the outcome will be different if Shogun is healthy. i agree that the Jackson camp is testing the rules..
