Well Im officially retiring from the fight prediction business. 2 big fights last night and I got them both wrong.

Liddell loses again in a split decision and Forrest Griffin wins by submission over a Brazillion Jiu-jitsu specialist from Pride.

Although that little sh*t Diego Sanchez got his ass whipped again. I did like that part.

If you start listening to Randy Couture, his predictions are spot on.

Some good fights, I still think my favorite was the very first one.

BTW, where the hell did Chuck go after the fight?? I have no idea why he was raising his fists after the fight, he should of known he was going to lose the decision. I think Chuck needs to reconsider his career...

Yeah, he's 37 years old. Coture is a freak of nature to be one of the baddest dudes on the planet at 42. Chuck may not have that ability.

I still think Jardine isnt that good. I mean he's top 1% in the world definitely, but I dont think he's as good as Chuck was a couple years ago.

He lost 2 fights. I bet he comes back and whips some ass. he is a really good fighter and I think he has alot left in the tank.

Lost one to Rampage, which he lost at his own game. Then lost to Jardine, arguably not that great of a fighter. I think Chuck use to have great stand-up, now it's quit questionable. I don't think it's going to get any better, considering his competition in that class.

One thing to consider, these guys are the best in the world. When youre fighting at this level you cant win all the fights.

Coture lost twice in a row as well - both times to Liddell. Now he's back cleaning house!

Liddell isnt over yet - he'll get it together and come back. He is getting older and his body wont hold up as well so I dont think he's got a lot longer but I also dont think he's thru just yet.

Tried to order the fight. First time doing so. Apparently I missed the cut off time by just a few minutes. I was pissed. Ruined my whole night.

I gained alot of respect for Jardine in that fight. I always liked him and thought he had a genuine shot of winning, but man, I didnt think he was going to win like that. Sure, Jardine looked like a tomato can after the fight, but he's irish, if you sneeze on him, he'll look like a tomato can :D

The best thing about MMA is that you never 100% know whats gonna happen. I think Hua went into that fight thinking easy win. There are no easy wins in this game apparently.

Jardine's Rt Roundhouse kicks to liddells left side ribs were something to behold. His rib section looked like raw filet mignon during that fight. I think Liddel was hurt, limiting his desire to attack.

Liddell will be back down the road, but so much for the Liddel/Wanderlei Silva fight. thats out!

any truth to the rumors that Coture will be fighting Fedor down the road?


p.s. remember all the pride fans that were like "ufc fighters would get owned by Pride fighters", betcha they feel kinda stupid dont they :D
