Tam3r0wn 12 Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 Is the new season of tuf on in the uk?Will be, no idea when though. If I remember correctly Five USA had the last series on the Saturday after it's on in the US. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBoyDave 123 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I like Dan Hardy he is not the best fighter but he has guts and character Hardy vs Lytle will be a good scrap hopefully Dan can win but he needs to improve his wrestling and ground game.

Polo 1,433 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 The last season of TUF was on Sky Sports. Think it was on Tuesday night - after the US show on the Saturday? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polo 1,433 Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 £10 is it? Don't think I'll bother TBH but wouldn't mind watching it.Diaz tends to be aggressive on his feet so he'll need to be careful....http://i46.tinypic.com/hvrk9f.jpg Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulRFC1 115 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Aoki wins the first match via RNC.That guy is immense on the ground.Jardine and Mousasi has been a good fight so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulRFC1 115 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Diaz stops Daley in what was an awful stoppage.Daley caught him with a left and Diaz faceplanted and it wasn't stopped and then Daley fell without actually getting hit and it got stopped after some poor GNP.Amazing fight tho and an amazing event.Melendez was awesome and is the #1 LW in the world.

the goal machine 7,794 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Was a good stoppage imo. Daley still didn't know what was happening when he was on the stool, normally a fight is up right away and protesting when they feel like the fight was stopped too early. Daley accepted it.

Daley accepted it.Don't agree.If that was a stoppage then Diaz should have been stopped when he got dropped.Daley fell backwards and looked rocked but he got hit with one shot when he was down and was still defending himself.

J-Maestro 11,026 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I'm embarrassed for MMA after that stoppage. Perhaps Dana and the Fertettis didn't want the big bad boogeyman being in the title?If that was a stoppage Daley is already champ.Fucking pissing off with that shite! Don't think I'll be watching that pish again, I knew I kept away from Strikeforce for a reason and there it is! EMBARRASSING! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Maestro 11,026 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Hope that junkie prick goes for Miller, so big Jason will destroy the disgusting cunt!EDIT: Watching it again now, when Diaz went down he was out! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Togs 179 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I think the Daley/Diaz fight should have been stopped when Diaz got cracked and faceplanted. That being said, I think the stoppage was just. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam3r0wn 12 Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 Griffin vs Rua and Silva vs Okami for UFC RioUFC RioSilva vs OkamiThe return of Royce?Royce Gracie returnOnly one man that fits the bill for Royce IMO, the Gracie Killer, Kazushi Sakuraba.Nick Diaz takes the huff and wants to move into boxing, possibly vs Jeff LacyDiaz vs LacyGuys, have missed a lot, have moved house and had a shitload of coursework to do, but will do my best to keep the news coming in. Only one of my mates is into MMA, so this is my only outlet for discussion, i stay away from MMA forums because they are full of tools. Look forward to having a good argument!

Don't think I'll be watching that pish again, I knew I kept away from Strikeforce for a reason and there it is! EMBARRASSING!You realise that the owners of the promotion have no say in who referees each fight, right? And I assume you're also aware that they have no say in who judges the fight, right?With that in mind, why would one apparently dodgy stoppage give you reason enough to stay away from an entire promotion, given that the stoppage itself was entirely the fault of people unconnected to the promotion?That said, I'd disagree that the final stoppage in that fight was wrong. I don't think Diaz could have complained if the fight had been stopped when he hit the deck earlier in the fight, but I also don't think you can complain too much that it wasn't. Daley wasn't covering up properly and was obviously going to take more damage than was necessary, so the referee stepped in at the right time.Now that Zuffa owns Strikeforce, expect it to continue as an independant promotion for about another year, perhaps seeing out their current broadcast deals, before being absorbed by the UFC in exactly the same way Pride was.Melendez is probably the best LW in the world, but as is the way of these things, he'll only get the widespread recognition once he's beaten the UFC champion. As much as MMA is a growing sport and it's making a ludicrous amount of money, the hardcore fanbase who are sufficiently aware that the sport exists outside the UFC is still pretty small.

Although to be fair I don't think there is a single fighter from Cesar Gracie's team I like.EDIT: Pearson v Barboza announced for UFC:Rio Definitely a winnable fight for Pearson.

the goal machine 7,794 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Melendez is definitely top 3 imo. Alvarez isn't.Wins over Aoki, Kawajiri x2, Thomson, Guida (was 5 years ago) are good quality wins. And he completely smashed Kawajiri and dominated Aoki. Definitely has a better resume than Alvarez or even Jim Miller or Anthony Pettis.I do think Edgar is going to beat Maynard at 130 and stay number 1 though.Can't wait for UFC Rio Will be an amazing occasion. Also, for 129 is it bad that the fight I'm looking forward to most is Rory MacDonald vs. Nate Diaz? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
