UFC 135
I know this thread is a day early, but the wife and I will be there in person and I am really excited and dont know what to expect. We were not brave enough to buy tickets on the floor but we are sitting club level. Its funny this is how we are celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary, so instead of chasing the boys around the house, we are using our night off to go to a UFC championship fight.
Re: UFC 135
My gf will be very jealous, she's a huge Matt Hughes fan
I personally hope Rampage gets his ass knocked out, I've never been able to stand him and his mouth. All this "Jones is insulting my trainers" stuff sounds like crybaby talk.

Re: UFC 135
I don't know how much Matt Hughes has left but I hope he has enough to beat koschek, not that I don't like koschek I just don't want to see Hughes go out like liddell. I like rampage and Jones, but unless he changed his style I think Jones is to well rounded and will take rampage. I wouldn't be surprised if rampage caught him

Re: UFC 135
I love Hughes but I just dont see him winning this match vs Koscheck. I am routing for him but I say it goes the distance and Koscheck wins a split decision. Get ready for a great wrestling match because these two are two of the best wrestlers in the UFC.
I am actually looking forward to the Diaz vs Gomi fight. I keep hearing great things about Gomi but I have yet to see anything from him. I think it will be a good fight because if Diaz losses again he will be in trouble. 3 in a row is not a good thing in the UFC. I say Diaz submits Gomi in the 2nd round.
The other two fights are heavyweight fights and there is going to be some KOs for sure. I heard good things about Rothwell so we will see how he does but I always enjoy watching heavyweights fights. Only thing better then that is the 135 and 145 pounders going at it.
Ahhhh the fight I have been waiting for, Jon "Bones" Jones vs Rampage Jackson. I am a HUGE Bones Jones fan since he came into the UFC. He is so fun to watch because he can hit you from anywhere and I remember the time he jumped off the cage and hit someone. Absolutely electric! Rampage is good but he was better in Pride and unless he gets a lucky punch, which is possible, I think that Jones wins. I say TKO in round 3. I know this fight is not going all 5 rounds, hell it might not go past round 2 but it will be a great fight.
Sidenote: Anyone watching the new Ultimate fighter that started Wednesday? If you havent you should this season is going to be awesome. I loved the idea of having the fights at the Mandalay Bay Event Center.

Re: UFC 135
I think I said it before, but the only chance Rampage has is to knock Jones out on their feet. If it goes to the ground Rampage will get dominated. Difference in the Hughes/Koschek fight to me is Matt tries to finish fights. He's not a lay and prayer, Koschek is. I can't think of any good reason why gomi of diaz should beat the other one. Should be a good fight. I know shit about the other 4 guys in the HW fights.
Jones wins.
Hughes wins.
Browne wins.
Rothwell wins.
Diaz wins.
Jones wins.
Hughes wins.
Browne wins.
Rothwell wins.

Re: UFC 135
I agree with you on Hughes he has always tried to finish fights but Koscheck has improved and looks to knock people out a little more now. I just dont see Koscheck laying on Hughes in this fight. Hughes is to good of a wrestler to let that happen.
The only heavyweight I know of is Rothwell but looking at there records the other 3 HWs dont seem bad. I always like watching the bigger guys try to knock each others heads off lol

Re: UFC 135
Well, I believe Jones will win, however, I don't see Rampage getting knocked out. And if you know Jackson's track record, he's rarely been submitted. So that leaves 5 rounds of Jackson laying on his back and eating elbows/fists. If it's a TKO, is probably going to be one that Rampage would question and say shouldn't have been stopped.
