Excited about an upcoming fight? Want to make predictions, or just give people a heads-up that there are some fights on? We can do it here.

(Also a good place to complain, dicuss, and agrue about the outcomes)

I want to see if he can smile through 3 minutes of getting his face punched in from the bottom.

Bruce Leroy has a dangerous ground game.

the technique in this Triangle is awesome

The result was good, the technique was not. He should have hooked the leg to prevent himself from getting slammed....several times. He also should have pulled the opposite arm through as quickly as possible.

Do we have any Mayhem love or is the majority pulling for Sakuraba?

Mayhem is going to kill Saku. Which is sad, because the Japanese will pay to watch Saku fight anybody, even if it means he's going to end up with brain damage.

He has really fought past his expiration date. I love that he is so damned tough but someone needs to tell him to retire.

I'd much rather see Miller vs Diaz (Nick) or a GSP rematch (lol).

I can't understand Strikeforce not making that Miler V Diaz fight while people wanted to see it. They'll dick around until no one cares and then sign it

Probably because it would be a catch weight fight without title implications. But either way it would still bring an audience.

Sometimes in BJJ you learn no matter how you have your guard closed over an opponent, its just better to let go, because you will get slammed regardless because of their strength. But you sound like you know that, Do you do BJJ as well?

lol you're talking about an org that gives title fights to guys coming off of losses, Strikeforce is the Herm Edwards of the mma world.

And Diaz vs Noons II is a much more intriguing fight than Mayhem vs Diaz. But I'd love to see it.
