...and Silva has been known in the past to not finish fights

He had finished 10 straight wins before that Cote fight.

I'm not sure what you're saying here. Are you faulting me for not having a memory, or someone else?

I really am starting to get on the forrest train for this fight vs Anderson Silva, I am a huge Silva fan. I just think everyone is not giving Forrest a chance in this fight, and Silva has been known in the past to not finish fights, Forrest could pull something out of his bag of tricks and pull it out.

Forrest wont pull the Vlade Divac flop to try to get the fight to the ground like Leites did. Forrest will actually fight.

I'm actually getting married August 8th and there is NO way I am missing this PPV. Whatever after party I have to blow off will be worth it as long as K Flo pulls it off. I'm a big Forrest fan since TUF 1 but I'm not very confident.

So you're saying there will be one more fight on the card? :wink:

I have a bad feeling that Penn is going to maul Florian in this fight. I'm expecting a bit of a medical suspension for Florian after this fight is done with.

Re: UFC 101: Declaration - August 8th in Philadelphia

The 2 main bouts are like the most lob sided fights, I love Forrest but Anderson Silva is ahead of him in every way you put it, n BJ Penn is just on a different level. I will enjoy it though it's my first ufc card live and I am a huge Anderson Silva fan.

Hope your wrong.

I thought both main bouts for 100 were going to be very evenly matched, but they were very one-sided. Enjoyable, but one-sided.

I'll be watching from a bar an hour and a half away. Those tickets aren't very cheap at all! Have fun guys!

Re: UFC 101: Declaration - August 8th in Philadelphia

BJ wouldn't be so bad if he kept his mouth shut so someone will have to shut it for him,hopefully it'll be KenFlo. Choke him out or elbow his face off,either way. Though BJ will probably come up with some other excuse anyway.

I hate watching fights where I have a good case to cheer for both guys. (That really goes for any sport though doesn't come up as much.) Can't cheer against Forest and if Silva wins it sets up a GSP fight. So maybe I just won't watch,just listen for the "and it's alllllll ovvvvvvvveeeeerrrrrrrr". I guess I should just hope that in the end it'll get Silva reintrested no matter if he wins or loses.

Will Amir Sadollah actually be able to make it through the rest of the week without getting injured?

Re: UFC 101: Declaration - August 8th in Philadelphia

Not picking winners in this card (even though I was 3for3 last time

but I hope Kenny throws a lot of kicks, it will make the fight more interesting. BJ's boxing would be out of range, so he'd either have to charge in a bit, or take Florian down

With Anderson v Forrest...I'm not sure what Forrest's strategy will be? Anderson never really has one, he usually kind of reacts. For some reason in my mind I actually pictured Forrest rocking Anderson - getting really excited and overzealous and being submitted trying to finish him.

Re: UFC 101: Declaration - August 8th in Philadelphia

The key to beat Anderson Silva is to stay on him and not give him any distance to pick you apart. Henderson's gameplan in the first round of their fight is what can beat him. Forrest's best bet is to take this to the ground. He has shown some ground skills with Shogun and Rampage so who knows. I don't like his chances if he decided to stand and bang with him.

I hope the Tamdan McCrory fight makes it to air. I gotta love a dude who looks like a geek, comes out to death metal, and proceeds to whoop *** most of the time.

Re: UFC 101: Declaration - August 8th in Philadelphia

I'm only picking the main card for this one:

B.J. Penn over KenFlo via TKO in Round 3.

Anderson Silva over Forrest Griffin via decision.

Amir Sadollah over Johny Hendricks via submission in Round 2.

Kendall Grove over Ricardo Almeida via decision.

Josh Neer over Kurt Pellegrino via TKO in Round 2.

Re: UFC 101: Declaration - August 8th in Philadelphia

I paid 200 bucks to see Anderson Silva murder Patrick Cote and he danced around like a *****. I hope Forrest murders him!
