The OFFICIAL MMA Thread

Ryron and Renner Gracie already have the Gracie Breakdown up. Sounds like Bocek and Hazelett had a great jiu-jitsu match. I'm surprised Hazelett ended up losing though. It's hard to beat his jiu-jitsu.

Is there anyone that watches the sport that thought Koscheck ever had a chance? That Jake Shields has a chance? That Jon Fitch could do anything different other than bruise the other side of his face? GSP will only lose when he stops caring against that line-up of talent.

There will be 50 MMA events next year between Strikeforce and UFC. Saturation!

I also do not like this quote from Koscheck:

"I'm not making any excuses," he said, his eye mangled by 25 minutes worth of punishment. "Georges St. Pierre is a true champion. I tried to do what I could to hype the fight up. Montreal, this was an amazing event, regardless of the outcome. I appreciate everything. Thank you so much. I hope I can come here one day and put on a better show for you guys. St. Pierre is the man tonight."

I appreciate a good sales pitch, and I like smack talk if it's done with style. But the hype is getting hollow for the UFC main events, and this quote makes him sound like he knew he didn't have a chance.

I'm just glad to see Koscheck give Georges props given the shit he's laid on him the past few months. I was worried he was going to pull a Tank Abbott and just walk out in a tizzy.

The undercard was surprisingly good. That Riddle guy had me cracking up, I hope he doesn't get brain damage if he keeps fighting like that.

Great final WEC.

That kick.

The only thing worse than guys talking shit is them backing down after getting beat. Live up to it. "I only said his mother was a whore to live up to the expectations of the crowd."

Amazing, right?!
