liddell needs this fight big!!! ever since cameo on entourage, he's gone down

think its gsp v. hughes three, but could be wrong (1 win each??? first hughes then st p) actually wanted hughes/sera @ as I think sera is a pos and would have loved to see he go down

a few guys, like Wuiff and Diabate, have fought in the UFC..

thanks for the gl for him, Joey Varner is a tough dude out of Randy Couture's camp i believe.

yeah Chuck V the Axe Murderer is going to be a war!!! (i hope)

too bad its not for a belt, but i had fun watching Rampage smash Chuck. it was time for a change.

I wonder if having a cameo on Entourage is similar to the Madden curse in the NFL

And you're right, the GSP and Hughes fight is #3 (Rubber Match) and i see GSP working over Hughes again...its going to be great to watch Hughes get manhandled all over again!!!

Im rooting for GSP as well, although the Sera/Hughes fight would be interesting because they don't seem to like each other.

I agree, the Serra-Hughes fight wouldve been a good one and it wouldve been nice to see Serra shut Matt Hughes up...how pissed off would that guy be if he lost to Serra

Still, i think its good for Hughes to fight GSP before fighting for the belt-GSP had the belt, lost, doesn't even get a rematch before the guy who he beat for the belt leap frogs him and gets a shot at the title...doesnt seem right IMHO.

I dont like both those guys thats why I like GSP to take it, I REALLY wanted BJ Penn to have more of an impact in UFC but he's so bitter...hahaha,

Hughes over gsb. he wants that POS sera who pussed out w/ there fight. Liddell is in a must win situation, if he loses I think he might retire. the fight card looks pretty good w/ Melvin Guillard vs Rich Clementi and Manny Gamburyan Nate Mohr fights

ouch.

Hughes said this about Serra's injury:

As of now, Matt Serra is out of the fight because of a herniated disc in his lower back. I believe Serra is actually hurt, so I don’t think this is just a ploy not to fight. Before my Royce fight, I had three bulged discs that I was able to repair enough to fight. As everybody knows you never go into a fight 100%. So, I’m just going to continue to train until I find out what’s next. –Matt

you're right its gsp v hughes 3... i hope gsp wins as i hate hughes... i'm not a fan of serra either since he's freakin annoying, but i give it to him for getting lucky with that punch that rocked gsp.

in other news, it will be interesting to see forrest griffin and rampage as the coaches for The Ultimate Fighter... i think forrest is gonna really have to step up his game fighting rampage.

ok.. so my cousin's opponent, Joey Varner, apparently just backed out of the fight. his manager says its not a smart fight for him to take. he's right.

so... lets hope the dude they fill in with isnt a total scrub...

but then again... it could be highlight reel material!

from his profile looks like your cousins got some heavy hands. his only losses were a split and a sub.

[quote=capnsavem;161432]ouch.

Hughes said this about Serra's injury:


Hughes never said it. that was me. I'm w/ tkblazer I couldn't stand Serra during the Ultimate fighter, I had to turn down the volume during the fight's because my wife couldn't stand him either.

tkblazer Serra got lucky knocking out gsb not Hughes.
