UFC 87

Couple things:

1st, what's everybody feeling on the Florian vs. Huerta fight? It almost seems like a coin flip to me right now, although the edge in experience definitely goes to Kenflo. I mean, besides Guida, has Huerta really beaten anyone?

2nd, the commercial on the radio this morning claimed that Brock Lesnar "showed why he is a rising superstar in the UFC in his fight against Frank Mir." Mmmk, maybe they didn't see the fight. Brock might be huge, fast, and strong, but if I remember correctly, he got caught in the slowest ankle lock in the history of MMA.


And finally, MatthewKolden has a seriously unhealthy man-crush on GSP.

Ok first, yes. My man-crush on GSP is seriously huge, but feels entirely healthy to me. His incredible talent and innocent accent make him a natural for me to love.

Ok seriously now though....

The radio commercial also claims that Brock Lesnar is a "UFC superstar" which really is just laughable. Maybe he's improved significantly since his loss to Frank Mir, but that was also a loss to a Frank Mir who was nowhere near what he used to be. To me, Brock is just a huge dude who can hammer fist but seriously lacks the necessary skills to be a true competitor in MMA.

As far as Huerta/Kenflo goes.... my predictions is Huerta. Just a feeling, and maybe a little bias since my wife knows him. All I know for sure is i'll be in those stands watching it live. Not trying to rub it in, just excited.

I don't know, kind of feels like you're rubbing it in.

Oh well, I'll be smoking a nice stick while I'm watching it.

Brock had an impressive showing, good patience and control. With those heavy hands and quickness he will be hard to beat


JSP, is a machine!!!
