Re: UFC Fight Night 22

I really like the Miller vs tibau fight!!! great match. Im assuming that this might turn into a striking war based on each others wrestling and also based on the fact that Tibau might feel confident in his striking after the Uno fight. They are both black belts, both good wrestlers and both decent strikers i guess. If they are evenly matched like this should I give the edge to Tibau based on his size?

How's Belchers take down defense???/

Re: UFC Fight Night 22

Belchers takedown defense isn't great, but he's always been able to avoid getting into alot of trouble on the ground. Unfortunately I don't know how he'll survive Maia's Jiu Jitsu.

That means I'm rooting for Belcher. Not necessarily picking.

But I think he has a chance to win.

I can't root against Maia. I don't know why, I just can't. I guess I like BJJ too much.

You have crossed me for the last time.

Hey, Belcher and I both used to live in Memphis and I also lived close to Biloxi for a while. Kind of hard for me to root against that. Plus, he's an exciting fighter to watch and his personality amuses me.

I do like Maia, though. He seems like a nice guy and that goes a long way in my book. He's also a BJJ wiz and it's intriguing to see a fighter make it as far as he has on damn near BJJ alone (though his striking is obviously getting better).

I looked at Belcher's record though, and lately he's been going win-win-loss-win-win-loss and he has two wins in a row, so I'm guess he'll lose this one. But I'm not so sure. Even with his newfound striking abilities, I don't think Maia can hang with Belcher on the feet, and I think that Belcher's grappling ability MIGHT be enough to keep him out of danger. I just don't know. I'd like to take Belcher at +200 or better though, so I'm really hoping Maia comes in as a significant favorite.

^^ Belcher has a very good chance IMO. Maia stands no chance unless he can get it to the mat, which I think he can. I would realistically put Maia @ about 60-65% to win.

I have met Belcher and seems like a nice enough guy. But he has that tattoo... so I root against him.

Yeah, he needs to look into laser removal for that shit.

First of all, who gets a gigantic Johnny Cash face on his arm? It is a huge picture of a man's face. On his body.

Second, it is a horrible rendering. It looks like one of those pictures you see in junior high art rooms, where everyone has to draw a face. Its so bad.

Also, it is red. Its like an indian-Johnny Cash-grandma face.


If that was on me, I would just cut the skin off of my arm. I would say he was stoned and woke up with that on his arm... but it looks like it probably took several trips.

Re: UFC Fight Night 22

I can get getting Johnny Cash's face. That's not the part that gets me.

It's the fact that it just sucks, lik you said. It looks NOTHING like Johnny Cash. And it also should've been done in black and gray instead of color.
