I make the UFC threads But yeah Gonzagas a no body hell lose. A nobody? Ugh... Okay... He's 8-1 against good competition including a dominating win over Mirko Filipovic. He has never allowed a fight go to a decision. You get mad that Tito Ortiz talks trash, makes himself known, etc... But then a guy doesn't talk trash, earns his title shot, and he's a "nobody?" Nice job of being consistent.

Gonzagas knocked the number 2 heavy-weight in the world out completely, and dominated him...he's not a nobody.
It's going to be a tough fight, but Gonzaga's strengths are also Courture's strenths, so I think Randy has the slight edge, since I believe he's alittle better at the ground game then him.

Tito got poked in the eye. I'm an Ortiz fan, but Tito got destroyed by Liddell -- twice. I do believe he got poked in the eye in the first one, but it was over regardless.

Tito did get poked. Simple as that. All you Liddel fans can play "blind" if you want but it DID happen.
But enough about that.
Randy Couture vs. Gonzaga is such a good fight on paper, but somehow I seeing it being a 5-round snOooOozer. I will say Randy will get the win though. He took down Silvia like he was a LW..but then again I never thought "The Maniac" was all that impressive..but still he is built like Gonzaga. So yeah, Randy gets my vote.
GSP vs. Kos. Definately will be the fight of the night. If GSP wins he gets a title shot, right? But if Kos wins he still has to fight someone else? Any word on who that is? I think it will be very fast paced but will only go to the second round. GSP will submit Kos.
I don't even know who Pellegrino is but I will still take him over "JOE DADDY". I hate Stevenson. How he won over Luke Cummo I will never understand.

Well I hope that Hughes beats Serra when they fight later this year. And If Koscheck beats GSP then maybe Matt Hughes can kick Koschecks a$$ for all the trash talking he's said about Matt ...
I just hope Josh Koscheck dosen't win the title

Rooting for Randy but have a feeling Gonzaga is going to dethrone him.
Georges better win because I can't STAND Koscheck. Something about his style seems too prissy or something. St. Pierre SHOULD dominate him.
Big fan of 'Daddy' but Batman is climbing the rungs and I don't think he's stopping here.

Watching a Kos fight is like watching a high school wrestling match break into a fight and getting broken up again.
I hated him on the Ultimate Fighter.
I hated Chris Lebin on the Ultimate Fighter.
Lebin isn't such a bitch anymore but someone needs to give Kos a pacifier.

Even though Diego wasn't on his game, you got to give respect to Koscheck for getting the win. If GSP comes in thinking he's going to walk over him, he's in trouble. Even though I can't see St.Pierre thinking he will, after his last fight with Serra.
Anyone can beat anyone, with the luck of a punch.
