Great card, can't wait! looking for Jones/Faber/Miller/Marquardt/Schaub to get the W's.
Looks like their will be quite a few finishes that night, possibly a mixture of submissions and knockouts.
i like almost all your picks..shogun has been fighting for a long time now and hes dream was to become UFC champ and now his dream to stay UFC champ i could see jones winning....but i feel like shogun is just going to go in there and leg kick him for 5 rounds...
Why does Jones insist on making ignorant stares?
Man i hope Cro Cop wins cause win or lose this is the end of the road for him. I dont think we want to see him go down like what happened to Chuck. Legends shoud never go down that way.
As for Shaub i wish the best for him as well, if he loses; he young he could just move on. Cro Cop cant really
He explained why in an earlier video he said it was "to de-humanzie his opponent"
See how heavy he was breathing and the weird way he was acting storming off and screaming. is it just me or did that trigger a little doubt in anyone elses mind?
The only person he's de-humanizing is himself. What we see in others is really more about US than them.
but what if we know hes acting to play trick on his mind? so what your basically saying is that you hate marlon brando..... why you always hating on brando fore greeneyeleo?
I know it seems as if he thinks he's 'too good' for every opponent.
But honestly i made a last minute prediction for Shogun, based on Jones's comments as of late, now picturing Shogun teaching him a good lesson.
if mirko losses again he should retire
Those prelims should provide some good action let alone the Main Card. I still can't decide who'll win Rua V Jones, the last time Rua had knee surgery and came back he got choked out by Forrest I know Dana insisted he came back later than he wanted to but still Jones isn't the type of guy you wanna fight just coming off an injury.
Who are you to say what he should do?...that's very disrespectful...
GAY!!
Mirko looked in top shape at the weigh ins tho. Im rooting for him think e might pull this one out too
I love seeing Mirko kick people's heads off but he waits so long and takes so much time picking his shots that it never seems to happen anymore. Also, his head kicks aren't so great against really tall opponents- and this guy he's fighting is pretty darn tall.
I beleive this could be his last fight win or lose.
i know injuries screwed him over bad
got the same prob dnt kno if i should pick the Pride/UFC Vet Shogun or the up and coming Prospect Jones. Just dnt kno how to pick between Experience and Energy.
****ing idiot
islamic extremist?
shogun/faber/crocop/marquardt/miller to the victory. I havent like Jones much as before this fight he doesnt seem that humble anymore and it will cost him the fight I THINK
this whole card is stacked with great fights
Shogun decision, I think jones is good but hes to young and skipped to many people to just walk in and beat the best of the best.
Also mardquardt, miller at 155, faber, cro cop(just hoping) lol
whats with the 195 prelim :|
Catchweight bout
whos the idiot that gave him a weak for stating its a catchweight bout haha
i cant believe joseph benavidez isnt going to be shown at all :(
they should atleast move him up to facebook
I can believe it
ShoGun!!! im going old school!!!
i can barely wait for these fistycuffs to happen!!! 1 day 1 hour and 53 minutes from this moment
can't jones buy some decent boxers? xD
This really has all the makings to be a great card.
Shogun seems piss off. I can't wait this one!
-WAR SHOGUN
For a tall opponent like Jones, the overhand right from Shogun is the key to end this fight.
first round ,ko
Wow...when did Jones start acting like such a knob. It doesn't suit him.
It's so funny how some pro athletes get- they get a glimmer of success and just lose their minds immediately. Even when Fedor was at the top of his game he was always calm and humble.
shogun needs to be aggressive he won machida by knockout who is a excellent counter striker even jones has unhuman reach he doesnt have the same countering skills
ps what is this staredown neather looks nother lol
jones is far too confident and ****y for this one, and this is the baddest opponent he faces so far. he didn't acted like this in his other fights. i hope it gets back to him.
jones is doing the right thing, look at him...he knows shogun is someone far more dangerous than any of his past opponents, he's trying to hold the psychological fear and won't let it get in his head...for such a young fighter, he's doing a good job keeping the image of shogun away from intimidating him.
WTF is Jones waring, lol?
*Wearing! goddammit!
I think Shogun is dehumanizing Jones the way that Jon said he does his other opponents, i.e. he is staring at the body and ignoring the face...maybe.
Mirko looks ready to go man! Shaub looks soft. Either way, I hope Mirko uses his left leg to put Shaub in the hospital for the night.
Going to be plenty butt hurt Sho fans.
