Liddell TKOs Sobral

Big Mike · August 28th, 2006, 11:07 AM

Just as I called it.
In typcal Chuck Liddell fashion, a relentless punching display, he stopped Sobral in 1:35 of the first round. Sobral was coming off of a 10 match winning streak since losing to Liddell in their last meeting. Fuck Yeah! Liddell can't be beat right now. He is just too good. He comes from all angles with punches that have devastating force. Good luck Silva...
Oh yeah, as I imagine evertone predicted. Forrest Griffin beat Bonnar unanimously.

I was gone so i didn't get to see it, but I kind of figured Liddell would win this one rather easily. Its also nice to see Forrest beat Bonnar again.

Did the Bonnar-Griffin fight live up to its hype? I was going to watch it but i actually went out. Liddell is a badass, but Silva can take his shots..for the first few rounds.

The Bonnar-Griffin fight did in fact live up the hype...
I've said it before Liddell can't be beat right now. Silva will go down by punches if he ends up stepping up against Liddell

Anyone catch Liddell on Opie and Anthony this morning? I had a ton of traffic to sit in, so i got to listen to him for a while. Pretty funny interview with Opie and Anthony doing everything but actually going down on Chuck. Chuck was funny talking about how he can't wait to kick the shit out of Tito again. And saying that the only time he saw actual fear in his opponents eyes was when he was about to fight tito. LOL

Chuck said they are in talks to get a Liddell vs. Ortiz fight set up for December.

Big Mike · September 19th, 2006, 10:45 AM

Yeah, the Ortiz fight has been in the works for a couple of months now. Ever since PFC and UFC coulcn't come to terms on the Silva fight

ssigman · September 19th, 2006, 11:15 AM

yea jay i heard him on o&a this morning...good interview...loved how he just basically tore apart tito ortiz....and liddell mentioned that silva got knocked out in his last fight anyway...so he had no shot with him...hahaha i got a kick outta that

i don't think ortiz is the answer to liddell anyway....but i guess they gotta have some sort of fight for him since he continues to crush everyone

BtownJay · September 19th, 2006, 11:21 AM

Plus Tito has a ton of fans (from TUF and from before), plus even more people who hate him... so there will be a ton of people interested in getting this fight. Which means more money for the fighters and the UFC. And like you said, he beats everyone anyway, so why not put a tough fighter in who will draw a crowd?

You aren't going to get it? I thought for sure this is one you would get. I'm really thinking about it if nothing else is going on. I'm interested.

Hughes vs. Penn
Swick vs. Loiseau
Lambert vs. Evans
and Pulver and Gilliard are fighting as well.

ssigman · September 19th, 2006, 12:29 PM

i didn't make myself clear...i would love to watch the fights..especially with my boy..but its so much money...i don't need to add to my already growing cable bill....maybe i'll swing my brother into getting it....i'll be down by my parents anyway...20 minutes from philly...maybe i'll get a cheesesteak from that place you mentioned

BtownJay · September 19th, 2006, 12:37 PM

Ah, yeah i got ya... i probably won't end up spending the money either. I really want to see the fights, but the thought of my ever growing cable bill as well is nausiating (sp).

Mmmmm... Jim's cheesesteak... i may have to spend some time on south street this weekend!

Big Mike · September 19th, 2006, 01:46 PM

Don't you Tool Boxes have any Sports bars in your shitty neck of the woods?

Hooters= UFC+Wings+Booze+Tits= Heaven

ssigman · September 19th, 2006, 01:59 PM

is the trip from exit 3 worth a jim's cheesesteak?? that's my only concern...i mean i gotta pay to get into philly, plus gas...i gotta know if its worth all the hassle

Hooters is over rated. But no... no real sports bars that i can think of that would carry the fights.

I don't know Sig... they are GREAT cheesesteaks, but not too sure how far away from exit 3 is... i'm sure Beers knows better.
