Vitor Belfort angry with Wanderlei Silva's Prediction

I didn’t waste my time watching [Wanderlei's video blog]. It’s just a spectator’s opinion. Spectators can say whatever they want. He just wanted to get some attention for himself. I don’t take it seriously. I will use my best characteristic - that is trading hits, boxing. It’s going to be a great test to strike with him. This is my job, right? I’m training Muay Thai a lot with a world champion and my karate coach is coming next month. I’ll be ready when I get there, you can be sure."

Jon Madsen's plan: no more boring fights

The Hurricane won't take part of any more boring fights. Do you think this will happen? Jon won agains Yvel during UFC 121

Gabriel Gonzaga released from the UFC

The heavyweight was released after a couple of bad games and is currently a free agent. He will be remembered with his KO victory over Cro Cop.

Junior Dos Santos confident

He was impressed with Cain's performance during UFC 121 but said that he is confident and believes in his hands. Do you believe hi will beat up Velasquez?

Shane Carwin injured for Nelson Fight

Somebody will have to replace Shane to fight Nelson. Who would you chose?

Josh Koscheck wants to piss of 22k canadians

He wants to piss of the canadians. Do you believe it? He is such a nice guy and what a shocking news :)

Shields ashamed of his performance in UFC 121

Though he won that fight Jake Shields is not happy with his performance and believes he will be better when taking on GSP.

GSP vs. Silva might happen?

Lorenzo Fertitta co owner of the UFC said:
"I want to see that fight," Fertitta said. "That's probably the one fight I really want to see the most."


So we might witness this.

Joe Rogan demonstrates the turning side kick

We know that Joe has some skills in fighting. Here is a tutorial on kicks from taekwondo which has some of the most beautiful kicks in martial arts..and pretty powerful too.

UFC 121: Lesnar vs. Velasquez results and recap


All right this was crazy event. Here we go:

Lesnar vs. Velasquez
Did you SEE that?!? Man, this was so unexpected. The match starts and Brock rushes towards Cain swarming on him with punches and kicks even managed to take him down. The Mexican didn't lose his composure even for a second and remained calm fighting his way up from the take down and in every exchange Lesnar was the one getting hit with big shots. After the first minute Brock was gassed out , had cut under his left eye and was obviously not ok losing balance and not defending intelligently. On the other hand Velasquez took him down a few times and hit him with heavy shots and unlike the Shane Carwin fight this shots were very precise. Total dominance from Cain Velasquez and late round one stoppage sealed Cain's title. Brock didn't have any chance here and gave credit and respect after the loss. As usual I was wrong with the prediction on this one as well as the results from the poll here on max-aggression :)
Result: Cain Velasquez TKO.

Jake Shields vs. Martin Kampmann
Kampmann gave a very good welcome party. Shields as expected was the better grappler, very calm and confident in his ground game, impossible to submit. Though he won very close without dominating Martin. His win was deserved but not convincing at all. I am not sure if he deserves the title shot after this performance but he will get it anyway.

Ortiz vs. Hamill
Honestly I don't like much both fighters because they are not so well rounded. Both are wrestlers with good ground and pound but lack many other qualities. Though Ortiz showed great desire to finally win he was just not good enough. Maybe its time for him to give up. If you can't beat Mat Hamill then what title shots are you talking about, Tito? Hamill is a good fighter showed superior boxing skills but we all saw what happened in the Jones fight. I don't think both guys are any threat in the light heavyweight division. They are just not good enough.The UFC also knows that and this fight wasn't that important for the overall situation in the division.Good for Mat and huge loss for Tito.
Result:Hamill via decision

Diego Sanchez vs Paulo Thiago
As I expected a good performance by Diego dominating Paulo during all round and getting deserved decision win.Still has to prove himself after the loss from BJ though.

Brendan Schaub vs. Gabriel Gonzaga
As I expected the overrated Gonzaga was a punching bag for three rounds. Brendan was so much better in his boxing and dominated the whole fight giving no serious chances to Gabe though at the end Gonzaga almost pulled the submission.
Result: Scaub decision
