There are some great fights coming up in the next couple UFC's

TUFF is getting on my nerves, some good fighters but it has become all about the Drama. That blond kid looked like he had some serious skills and now his going to blow it.

Yeah, that kid is messed up. He should get the boot tonight after climbing the cage and acting like an idiot.

Junie better be gone tonight!!

I'm excited to see Tamdan Mccrory fight at UFC91. I trained at his school here in Binghamton for a while, and he is a good young fighter. I'm also even more excited to see Jon Jones to fight Stephan Bonnar in his return at UFC 94. Jon went to high school at my school's rival and we always wrestled against him. He was a great kid though and one of the only kids on that team I didn't despise.

Anyone else have ties to fighters currently on one of the big stages?

I train at Tristar Gym in Montreal. That's where Georges St-Pierre and David Loiseau train. Patrick Coté also makes an appearence once in awhile.

Cote, got any tricks up his sleeve for Silva next weekend. While, I like him quite a bit, I don't think he has any shot against Silva unless Anderson completely under prepares for him.

Do you train MMA or something more specific? Just curious if you're training to fight...

I am currently training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Colorado BJJ with Big Mike Nickels, from the third season of TUFF. I am not training to fight, I'm just doing the BJJ stuff cause I love it.

I box at the gym. I train for the sport and self defense. Before that I did Tea Kwon Do. I love sparring and do it for the exercise. I don't have any plans to fight, concentrating on school and working is enough on plate. I do plan to start Vale Tudo maybe next summer. I would need to take some private lessons in BJJ and wrestling first.

The ring, mats and bags are shared side by side with the guys training MMA/Vale Tudo. It's a huge space of maybe 75 people on a given week night with two rings. I take part in a 20 person training session and St-Pierre can be rolling on the mats across the room with his partners when he's in town.

Keep the kid. He is great for ratings. Maybe next time he will cute himself up and have to fight all messed up. The show is designed to make the fighters crazy. Let them b crazy then.

Drama queen!

Woulda been funny if Nog would took Junie down when he jumped the fence and submited him. Kids got very bad decision making skills.

TriStar · 10-15-2008, 09:12 PM

I hope he get's an a$$ wooping next week lol. If Delgado's black belt in bjj isn't bogus, I'd love to see him get an arm-bar on Junie

Probably won't happen though, Junie does look tough for a lightweight.

I think he beats Junie. He looked real solid in his other fight.

Nog pretty much just restrained him and he didn't get kicked off the show. Dana said he was lucky because the Athletic Commishioner happened not to be there or the Commish probably would have made him go home.

I think Krystoff has a good chance of winning at 205 this season.

I think the show has purposely not shown all of us the fighters. I think it is a little early to decide the best fighter. But, Krystoff does look good.
