i think hardy is going to be made a fool !
I hope Bisping gets knocked out again for pushing his ugly face against Akiyama's. That dude is so disrespectful...
TOLD YOU SO!
TOLD YOU SO! :]
get over it gabe.loads of fighters do that in the heat of the moment but normally shake hands after. what about when wand shoved rampage, is that also so disrespectful? condit and hardy eye balled and were face to face,but so what, its the stare down after the weigh ins. some do it, some just smile.
How dare he touch Sexyama's face?
Yeah, but most don't push their heads against EVERY opponent trying to be tough... I could understand when they at least hate each other but, I haven't heard of Akiyama say a single bad thing about Bisping.
@yeah but gabe its just fight business. loads of fighters do it. whether you like bisping or not, its not un common for fighters to do it. it might be a mental thing to try and work the other fighter over before you fight him in the cage. i was at the expo tonight and jon jones himself said that anderson does so much of the winning by the mental game before he evens gets in the cage
i dunno about that one i think hardy is obviously the more powerful stiker but you can never count condit out hes definatley the more well rounded of the two
this should make for the fight of the night
Wow Kongo came in weighing low, he's looking like he could go down to 205 as well
That was my 1st though! Kongo came in super light... the thing was in 107 he looked almost just as big as Mir
Not sure what you guys are talking about he has always been around that weight as far as I can remember. He just looks a lot bigger then his weight would imply. The thing is thou for Kongo that he has to lose muscle to make 205 without losing all his conditioning.
great introduction by Joe Rogan "Arianny you can see her naked right now in playboy"
steve cantwell=karo parisyan.
should get cut for being a pussy
god i hate bisping... sexyyama all the way.
@ckantor420. his name is actually akiyama. only use sexyama if you are female or gay, and as you are male, thats a little worrying. better watch you. lol
GO BISPING
