UFC 59 Reality Check
 

So who is your pick, Tito Ortiz or Forrest Griffin? I gotta go with Tito Ortiz.

Tito :thumbsup

Tito is gonna take it.
However I would love to see Forrest shut his big mouth for him.

I can't wait until this event....gonna be fucking insane!

is that this Saturday ??

Yeah, it's Saturday. Did you guys see who's fighting in UFC 60? Matt Hughes vs. Royce Gracie! Crazy!

I'm not sure what to think about that one ... Gracie maybe past his prime ..but he just needs one submission and it's over ..

Tito will win, he hasn't fought forever though. I'll be watching saturday night :)

I agree 100%


Tito is WAY to experienced for Forrest, but I would LOVE to see Forrest pull off the MONSTER upset!!

:thumbsup

Brandon what's up bro!!!! Tito's got this one!

Any pics or vids of those guys?

Ortiz is gonna kick Griffin's Ass.
I admit he did well in the fight with Bonnar but he is no match for Ortiz.
:2 cents: :thumbsup

Well Ortiz is training hard of Shamrock so that can be good/bad - good, because he'll be in prime shape, bad because he may not be focused enough. I'm going on a limb and taking Forrest .. if it doesn't go to the ground much.

I like Tito style!

don't be too hasty, always remember the rule of "any given sunday". Although I believe Tito will win it. He has too, he has way more to lose than Forrest. If Forrest loses this he's still a new developing fighter with a big future. If Tito loses this he's washed up.

completely agree.

more so, I can't wait til Shamrock gets another crack at him in July

What I'm interested in watching is Arlovski knocking Sylvia on his ass. Again.

now thats gonna be a hell of a fight.
Arlovski will win it IMHO but Sylvia will throw some bombs.

:2 cents: :thumbsup

for sure

Ok, so it's Tito this Saturday. How about when he fights Shamrock again? Do you think Shamrock is washed up?

Shamrock will be dangerous well beyond all of us growing grey hair and man boobs, but if Tito's on game I think it'll go to Tito.

Arlovski, round 3

Arlovski will dominate

UFC need new fighters instead of leeching on old washed up names...

Night of big mismatches. Tito will demolish Forrest, and Arlovski will make Sylvia shit himself again.

I love how in the promos for this they call Tim Sylvia "One of the best strikers in the game". LMAO he's actually one of the WORST strikers in the game, one of the slowest if not THE slowest striker in the UFC.

I'm surprised Pimpporn and Anthony haven't commented yet. Hehe

Tito all the way!!

Cause I just saw the thread. LOL

Anyone picking Forest over Tito is nuts. Tito was knocking bitches like Forest around for years as Champ before he lost.

I met Sylvia back in UFC 47 at a party, cool enough guy, but he's no dangerous striker, just bigger than your average bear, and trained enough to take out smaller guys. Did well till Mir, and now Arlovski.

Arlovski is considered in the top 5 in the world for Heavyweight in MMA.

Slyvia isn't even on the list. :)

T!t0 :thumbsup

Arlovski is Probably the best MMA fighter currently. I dont think sylvia can hang. Hes been EXTREMELY lucky his ENTIRE career. Dont underestimate griffin, but dont overestimate him either. He has a great chance to beat Tito. Griffin can strike with the best of them, but Bonner went puch for punch with him, and I dont think Bonner is that great of a fighter. If the fight is a standup fight, it could go either way. Remember Tito was easily knocked out by Liddel in a standup fight....

*cough*fedor*cough*

Slyvia is a much better striker than you guys are giving him credit for - he'll put in a better showing this time, but he's still outgunned.

I can't wait to see the line on Diaz/Sherk, that's easy money on Sherk.

Here's the lines from sportsbook.com.... Nothing's jumping out at me except the line on Sherk - grab it now, it won't stay that low.

Tito without a doubt in my mind

The Monson/Pe de Pano fight is gonna be awesome. It's a spinoff from those two fighing in ADCC.

Two big wins for my school American Top Team in Pride with Kang and Aurelio winning. It would be sweet to make it a hat trick with the Snowman beating Pe de Pano.

Tito for sure in my opinion.

Tito is going to woop his ass

Whoever wins we'll all be in for a good show.:thumbsup

Thats all I gotta say!

Nice Pic of Arlovski! Sylvia doesn't stand a chance against him. They are not even in the same league.:2 cents:

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh Great Pic!

Ok, so whos gonna win the Matt Hughes and Royce Gracie fight? I think Royce is past his time.
