Wow. Lytle and Condit. Can Carlos knock out Chris???? No way! Go Lights Out!
I will literally spontanously combust if Lytle is KO-able!!!
these upmcoming fight are great. im mostly excited to see pat barry get back on track
Hype or Die!
haha i like lights out but i thought the same thing with the carlos and hardy fight. i thought that hardy would get a free knockout but condit is improving this fight can possibly be fight of the night and i dont even know the card yet
Bad mtchup for a standup war if your Carlos Condit. He will likely go to the ground.
@TheSpider420
I agree. I thought it would be an easy one for Hardy. I was so surprised but happy for Condit.
@falcon
Lytle might hold his own on the ground with Condit.
dude you never know whats gunna happen.. he will likely go to the ground no i think condit is gunna stand with him and try ko him too i think condit is jus finding his new stand up power and is trying to evolve into a true mma fight he already proved that hes good on the ground now hes testing his stand up.. but it could happen if he feels lytles true power he might jus shoot for a take down but where jus gunna have to wait and see what happens
Yeah maybe it's just been so long since that happened and he even thanked Serra for not taking him down and laying on him so maybe he is not so sure of himself there or maybe it's just serra.
yea man for sure its mma and anything can happen there is never such thing as an easy win or someone running though someone else.. after that knockout over hardy condit got my respect..
this is great!
Condit vs Lytle and Florian vs Duhnham both are great match ups
Pat Barry-Joey Beltran will be interesting... I hope Pat worked on his wrestling. He was out there "trying" to help Brock with his striking, so I'd imagine it was a give and take scenario. And as far as the KenFlo-Dunham match, I am not sure the type of excitement that fight conjures up is even appropriate!
Am I the only one excited about Dunham and Florian? The way I see it, Dunham is still undefeated and I can't wait to see him kicking Florian's butt. I like Kenny a lot, but Evan Dunham is the next big thing in that division.
Cerrone vs Horodecki is gonna be a war until Horodecki gets cracked a few times. Cerrone KO early round 2.
Condit will make it look easy
Walker vs Rogers or Johnson anyone?
Barry vs a guy that lost to Meathead? aw come on
Florian-dunham should be a dandy one
