jamesmark Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Anyone see this event? What a card, what a great night of fighting. Quinton Rampage Jackson vs. Wanderlei Silva, I never expected that result, what a knockout. A great emotional fight. If only Silva got a 3rd win against Jackson. Forrest Griffin vs. Rashad Evans A great fight, Griffin looked so in control. Well done to Evans. Unhappy Griffin lost . But as said both fighters put on a great fight. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Frank Mir, One of the best fights I have seen in the UFC. I had no idea who to support! Support Mir for the rematch vs Lesnar or support Nogueira to see if Lesnar could stop him. However, WOW what a fight!! Mir fought an almost (99%) perfect fight. I cannot wait till the rematch.... Lesnar vs Mir What are your predictions on the unification fight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 mr was awesome tonight, i think lesnar is an idiot hes just size cant wait till mir owns his ass again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 mr was awesome tonight, i think lesnar is an idiot hes just size cant wait till mir owns his ass again I think you will see a different fight this time. I certainly won't be missing it. Lesnar cannot be underestimated in my opinion. Its not as if he just fell into the ring. He was a bit green at first with regard to the UFC but he is fit, strong and has a massive wrestling background. He knows he cannot depend on his strength, if he gets the chance to unleash Mir will have to be careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Mir but I also like Lesnar!! I do not know who to put my money on!! If it was based on Mir's fight tonight then I would bet against Lesnar, however I do not think Mir or Lesnar will have the same game plan as last time.

Jamesy W Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Brilliant card. I thought Jackson went over the line against Silva. The extra punches were uncalled for and I did actually thing Silva was a goner, it looked like his legs very briely started to spasm. Mir vs Nogueira was a clinic in Kick Boxing form Mir. I personally think he is a better fight for Lesnar. Although I wouldn't like to put any money on it this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 I watched the Jackson fight, that was good, but only because they were standing up trading blows and not hugging each other on the floor, I cant stand that. That french guy before the Jackson fight looked impressive too, sad for his competitor he got blue balled about 2 mins before he got knocked out! :| Both trained in the UK too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the fights were stand up, toe to toe action that's what made it for me a great show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 A good thing with the UFC is they also have a few big fights, unlike boxing where its usually a load of dross before the main event. Having said that, a lot of MMA fights don't last a great deal of time, but its nice to get a decent undercard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
