Beejis60 · 11-07-2009, 07:18 PM

I made a to do list while this is on:
shyt on my bed and roll around in it
burn off my fingerprints
remove my fingers with toenail clippers
give myself papercuts on my eyeballs
attempt to remove my balls with a spork

donati03gt · 11-07-2009, 07:23 PM

nice thanks boss

SwolenONE · 11-07-2009, 07:23 PM

thanks for the heads up, far from a frequent MMA fan, but I hear this guy
Fedor is tremendous.

Plus I could use something going on in the background while I study

manofmany · 11-07-2009, 07:39 PM

Hope Fedor gets KO'd but I got fedor winning quickly.

The first fight was pretty good

longhorns_p · 11-07-2009, 07:57 PM

almost forgot about this with the fsu and uf game on, thanks for the reminder!

SHOWTIME · 11-07-2009, 08:45 PM

Awesome thanks I just turned it on now...haha

Kernkraft · 11-07-2009, 09:07 PM

wow - what a great first round

*EDIT - let me just say you couldn't pay me enough money to get into the ring with Fedor... good god that man can connect

manofmany · 11-07-2009, 09:22 PM

That card was better than any UFC card I've ever watched. I was surprised Rogers did as well as he did. He busted Fedor up pretty good

ttowndoode · 11-07-2009, 09:34 PM

Thanks, would have missed it.

neuron · 11-07-2009, 10:33 PM

War fedor

SwolenONE · 11-07-2009, 10:53 PM

both fedor and his opponent were so damn strong/powerful

great fight, great tko

i was worried for fedor in the first round, that guy was tremendous for only having ten fights under his belt

Ace28 · 11-07-2009, 10:59 PM

Great fight, really impressed with rogers on the ground. He's obviously made some improvements but was suprised he got picked apart on the feet.

WIULifter · 11-07-2009, 11:09 PM

that Gegard guy impressed me.

black dude? EDIT: think his 1st name is melvin?

he impressed me too, till awhile go, where he talked all this crap about some old white guy, saying he was gonna rip him apart yadda yadda, well the old white guy submitted him, then Gergard tried to attack him after the fight was over

sore loser much

anyway, thanks Rod, I totally forgot about this

the next UFC is free too on spike, coture is fighting I think

I really was not that impressed to be honest. Sokoudjou was his usual self. Started off strong and gassed. Mousasi had good movement and was elusive.

Shields vs Miller was kinda a lulz fight for me. Miller expected Jake to gas but he got his 2nd wind and was able to take Miller down and lay and work his ground game. I guess it would of been better for me if Shields would of subbed him but that is not how it always works out. All the comments the monkey roll really made me lol.

Silva and Werdum was a pretty good fight. Silva really screwed the pooch when he decided to engage Werdum on the ground in the 2nd round. If he would of kept things standing he could of pulled of the win.

Fedor v Rogers was better than expected. First punch out of the night Rogers threw landed and broke Fedors nose. The announcers were all over it like Pete on a 74 oz. steak. Good first round. Rogers got some good shots in and had a brief chance at the gnp before Fedor attempted the arm bar. I was surpised Rogers weathered a storm or 2 from Fedor. Second round started and I was thinking we might have 3 round fight here. But Rogers kept on leaving his hands down and Fedor then blasted him with that quick right to the jaw and dropped Rogers. IMO Big John should of let it go a couple more seconds before stopping it. Rogers was covering up but you could tell he got rocked pretty good.

Posts fight interview Fedor was a gentleman as usual but Rogers came off as a tool. JMO. Just admit you got your azz beat. A rematch would end the same way except it would be 1st round KO.

Edit...What was up with the no elbow/forearm strikes to the head while on the ground. I was like WTF when I saw that. Also, did anyone notice how the commercials before the Fedor/Rogers fight lasted long enough so you could watch the final round of the Nog/Couture fight.

That's because some sanctions are still about the fights & not the money

Lay-n-pray victory for Shields

Where was this? Forearm/elbow are ok on the ground, as long as its not back of the head...

Just when you think the other guy is gonna get on edge on Fedor, he comes out and destroys them like nothing happened, amazing...

nickrut · 11-08-2009, 06:52 PM

Fedor seemed busted up real easy. I think he had some injury pre fight to his nose because if you look, rogers never hit a huge flush shot before the nose was busted up. That, or he caught him just right.

I almost lost it when fedor almost pulled off the armbar from the bottom haha

DaveGabe24 · 11-08-2009, 08:30 PM

Brett's got some potential, but damn his mouth is already writin some big checks...

I honestly hope that rematch, and Fedor knocks him the **** out in the first round.

They posted this before the 1st fight aired when they were going over the rules. Did you not notice any elbows were thrown? All the GnP was done by posturing up and thrown the hands. If you dvr'd it check at the beginning of the program.

CaptMcClain · 11-10-2009, 10:55 PM

I just got around to actually watching this

son I am dissappoint

boring as hell

all those fights for one good punch

the commentary was **** too..

"Rogers is in the best shape of his life"

really?...really? what the hell did he look like before?

infact whats up with all these fighters being fat?

is this some sort of strategy so they can lay on top of people or use the fat to block strikes?

cbs and strikeforce annoy me

He always looks really good but 90% of the time he ends up getting caught in some stupid submission. He is just not a very smart fighter.
