UFC 100: July 11th

[TicketRedBB6]

UFC 100 at 10pm Saturday, July 11

Brock Lesnar vs. Frank Mir (heavyweight title)
Georges St-Pierre vs. Thiago Alves (welterweight title)
Dan Henderson vs. Michael Bisping

Those are the maincard fights. Lesnar v. Mir and GSP v. Alves are going to be incredible fights IMO. I hope Lesnar wins the rematch and I dont really care who wins the GSP fight, I just know it'll be worth seeing. Also, Michael Bisping and Henderson should put on quite a show too.

Post up your thoughts.

[Deke]

Definitely one of the better fight cards in recent history. I'm looking forward to seeing this.

[ironchef]

Should be very good. Dong "Stun Gun" Kim, Matt Grice, and Jon Jones should be interesting scrappers. Also looking forward to Coleman/Bonnar to see if Coleman has anything left in the tank.

[OMG_TSX]

Lookin forward to seeing GSP retaining his belt

I was looking forward to see if Bonnar had anything left, lol. He had a strong start in the UFC and then it just kind of fell apart.

I read a UFC mag today that said some floor seats are going for 25K. I think every UFC is lookin forward to seeing it, lol.

[Master Shake]

the lesnar vs mir fight is gonna be a good one. lesnar has got some fights behind him now and knows where he messed up the first time. and he might be after mir for blood.

GSP vs alves should be good as well. GSP doesn't want to lose that belt. Alves wants that belt. enough said.

henderson vs bisping. lol, i think this fight is gonna settle the grudges held between them from the us/uk show. should be interesting.

[BanginJimmy]

I want to see Bisping's overrated ass get pummeled. I didnt like him when he was fighting on the show, and I liked him less as a coach.

[TSiFTW]

Mir, GSP, Henderson. Thats my picks. Also can't wait till 101 to see Silva vs. Griffin. Hells yeah!!

[SP33D FREAK]

Lesnar better defend the BJJ.... Frank Mir is a Top Star... he should really be the champ.. and I would like to see GSP retain... also I want Dan henderson to beat the shit out of bisping!

[NevrNufTorq]

Mir, GSP, Henderson. Thats my picks. Also can't wait till 101 to see Silva vs. Griffin. Hells yeah!!

have to go with lesnar, gsp, and henderson..... on silva vs. griffin. gonna be a great show i hope!!!

[DamnDisLaOsBoY]

would be nice but my dood is LYOTO "THE DRAGON" MACHIDA! lol i still got the sweet KO he put on Rashad Evans on DVR.

[NevrNufTorq]

he is awesome, but he's not fighting in the next 2 fights and that's who we're making pics for

[DamnDisLaOsBoY]

lol yeh i know just putting in my randomness. but honestly. BROCK is a freakin beast and very quick for his size! Under rated because people hate on him because he used to be a wrestler (which is fake) but the dude can pound on people. My vote is for brock!

[03RCode]

Lesnar
GSP
Bisping.

Should be a good night of fights.

[TicketRedBB6]

I want to see Bisping's overrated ass get pummeled. I didnt like him when he was fighting on the show, and I liked him less as a coach.

I kind of think he will lose too, but how is he overrated? His only loss out of several fights was a close decision to Rashad Evans when they were both pretty new to the octagon. Since then Evans has destroyed most people in front of him. Bisping was one of the few to have a close fight with him and has gotten better since then.

[TicketRedBB6]

have to go with lesnar, gsp, and henderson..... on silva vs. griffin. gonna be a great show i hope!!!

Dont forget Penn and Florian in the next fight too. Penn is a cocky bastard but he'll give you your money's worth, win or lose.

Go back and look who he has fought. Outside of early in his career it is all nobodies and in London. He also had the fight against the deaf kid that he lost bad, but the judges gave it to him anyways. There is a reason Evans has been the picture for the belt for the last year and no one has even mentioned Bisping for a title shot.

[TicketRedBB6]

You have a point. Supposedly the winner of this fight is getting a title shot.

[NevrNufTorq]

right about that, that fight will be a brawl unless one of them gets stung early

[ironchef]

I think Kenny is too hungry for the belt, and he'll take it from BJ.

[BanginJimmy]

I dont think either is really title shot worthy at this point, but there really isnt anyone in 185 that is on Spider's level. I really dont see ANY competition for the champs until you get to 205, which is really the only competitive class right now at the top level.

Penn, just better than anyone else at 155. His BJJ and striking are a step ahead of anyone in the class. Alot of competition for #2, but for right now #1 is easily Penn.

GSP, a few good fighters at 170, but like Penn he is just that much better. He wont find any real competition unless he moves up. The really scary thing is, he is still getting better. Until you get to the truely elite 185ers I think he cruises much as he is at 170.

Spider, everything someone at 185 can do, he can do better and from multiple positions. Like GSP, he is still improving too. He will also have to move up to find any real competition. Unlike GSP though, I think he has VERY serious issues with the top 20 205ers. Not because of skill, but because of the weight differences. 205ers are running around at 225+ while Spider will have to work to get to 205. Put simply, the 205ers will simply be too strong for Spider.

Does this mean none of these guys cant lose, or win if they move up? Not at all. That is the beauty of this sport. All it takes is a well placed, or desperation, kick, punch, or knee to end the fight.

[ironchef]

Anderson walks around at 220 I believe. If he moved up, I don't think he would have much issue.

[Whiteboy572]

IMO, Penn's over rated.. Got stoped by GSP last fight, looked winded and just gave up.. I think he will have his hands full if we get to see a sanchez vs penn fight card. The sanchez vs guida fight was awesome!
My picks are Lesnar, GSP and Henderson, i hope. (I still have a sick taste when bisping "Beat" Hamill in his home town a while back...

[Ronsam2006]

The big Dana White rumor is that he already mentioned that if GSP wins in UFC 100, and Silva wins against Forrest in UFC 101, then he will match those two up somewhere past UFC 105. GSP said that he will fight Silva, but he will need a long time to train and put on the 15 lbs. Silva already agreed on that fight, as he has said before that he will fight anyone. As you can see here, saying that in time, GSP will be dealt with....

I wasnt aware he was walking around that big. I though I saw that he was walking around at about 200.

Found what I was looking for. His fight weight is about 200.

that would so be an incredible fight if it went 2 or 3 rounds!!!!!!!!!!! love both fighters, great guys with incredible skill and 'at least seem' to be quite honorable of other fighters and their accomplishments as well

[Greddypacked]

Wow what a good fight card. D. Henderson Vs. Bisping should be a good one, but haha... Lesnar and G. St Pierre in the other fights WOW; should be an exciting UFC. I mean they couldnt make UFC100 a soso fightcard, it's the 100th so they making it BIG.

[TicketRedBB6]

Thiago Alves Highlight - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IqMoLwr0JI
The first knockout and the matt hughes knockout
I think he'll only beat GSP if he knocks him out. If it goes more than a couple rounds GSP should have it easy.

[BB6dohcvtec]

My pick in the top fights

Lesnar
GSP
and hopefully henderson but i have a feeling bisping is gonna get em and it won't even be close.

[TicketRedBB6]

Lesnar FTW lol. The way it shouldve ended the first fight.

[BanginJimmy]

but i have a feeling bisping is gonna get em and it won't even be close.

Would you like to revise this statement?


Bisping's second fight against a top level fighter and he got absolutely destroyed(sort of like the first but the judges couldnt give this one to him). That was one of the worst knock outs I have ever seen.

I absolutely loved Hendo's comments afterwards. All of Bisping's words just got thrown onto him 10 fold.

[b16EG-HaTcH]

^^LoL Bisping got dominated. i was expecting a way better showing from him than that. But like they kept saying i couldnt understand why he was circling to henderson's power hand......but it paid off well for henderson, and LULZ at the comment he made about the 2nd punch when bisping was out was "just to shut him up".

[bowdown201]

Ill admit I was kind of surprised to see Bisping not put up much of a fight. Also props to Thiago for goin 5 rounds with GSP.

[ekcivic1991]

Man who else hates brock lesnar, He pisses me off some big troll or something needs to come beat his ass in the ring. When he was runnin his mouth about frank at the end to joe rogan i was just waiting to see frank come running across the corner of my screen and hit him but it didnt happen.

[OMG_TSX]

i would say it was a good show. wat a TKO on Bisping!. what about Alan Belcher superman punch using his foot to spring off the cage. is that LEGAL???

I like Brock. He is big, strong as hell and honest. Dont forget that Mir was the first one to say something though. I may be biased though as I have always hated Mir because he is so damn cocky. He did get a couple very good knees in though that may have ended most fights.

Brock was right about one thing, Mir must have had a horseshoe up his ass to win that first fight.

Mir talked shit about Lesnar all up to this fight saying he was a joke of a fighter, that Mir would beat him easily 99 out of 100 fights, during training session Mir's sparring partner was doing elbow drops and making fun of Lesnar, and then Mir got dominated. UFC fans probably now half of them still think Brock's a joke eventhough he's beat up every person he has faced. He gave the FU to the Mandalay Bay, b/c 90% were cheering for homeboy Mir.

Lesnar can talk the talk and walk the walk. The ONLY person out there that would give Lesnar a run for his money and can beat him is FEDOR.

[ka24boost]

Brock is over rated. All fighter talk junk about each other before the fight but after ward they usually cool.

[TicketRedBB6]

Frank got just what he wanted. He said before the fight "hit harder brock." lol, brock definately hit harder. My dad called earlier though and said he failed a drug test and has now been DQ'd though. Havent heard anything else about it than that.

And yeah, I have all the respect in the world for Alves. He steadily got beat for 5 straight rounds and still stood toe to toe swinging his heart out the whole fight. And then had the respect to raise GSPs hand afterwards.
