Great, great movie. I lost it when he said the Centipede quote. These people are fascinating. If I ever get the chance, I want to go to one of these Funspot get-togethers. I've played a little "BurgerTime" in my day.

Wow. That was a great, great thread. This is really good in showing a new member like myself how far this place has really fallen.

Very few people have Lesnar's athleticism. In any professional sport. I couldn't hack it at wrestling in high school, so I started boxing, so I have a lot of respect for those guys. Especially someone at his level. In Lesnars defense, Tito Ortiz turned out okay, and he wasn't even that good...

Definitely a fair analysis there. But at heavyweight, the UFC is, to put it nicely, boring to most people who don't understand the sport. Tim Sylvia is a decent fighter but boring as hell, Couture most likely won't be fighting in the UFC again, Nog is a master on the ground and has pretty...

Say what you want, he's an interesting guy. There's more posts in this thread than there are about an absolutely fantastic UFC card that went down last night. And with the ground work clinic that Kongo/Herring put on, I don't see how you can say he couldn't at least make an interesting fight...

I would probably like them more if I wasn't such a drunk and I didn't drop the damn glasses all the time. Rocks glasses are much more stable. Pitchers are preferable though. It's tough to drop something with a handle.

No, they should laugh all the way to the bank. I can see not anticipating the fight as a showcase of skill, but anybody who was disappointed with that fight is either A)delusional or B)stupid. Did you think Tank was going to show up ripped and in shape with great cardio? Or with some...

You're right, he can be beaten on his feet for now. But, I think he's a natural and he's going to pick this up very, very quickly. He's got a great camp, great trainers, the will to succeed, and he likes what he does. Heavyweights have a chance to fight into their 40's, and if he can reach...

It might have been short, but how can you say that his fight against Tank wasn't exciting or at the very least entertaining?I'm betting his next fight will be AN exciting fight too.

According to Sherdog, his debut was also his retirement fight- 5 years ago. Does he still fight?

I am quite convinced that his stand-up is something special. He doesn't move like a heavyweight. As far as handspeed goes, I would say only Fedor, Cro-Cop and Arlovski are in the same boat. Some of the skills he showed during his youtube days were presumably instinctual and not the result of...

Even though I sort of agree with his stance on Kimbo, you're right. A lot of things change when you need to apply boxing to MMA(or even kickboxing, which I have a little experience with). Your stance changes, your strategy changes, your footwork changes, the pacing changes, everything is...

It's all about match-ups. He's got a chance against anybody that's stupid(or one-dimensional) enough to stand and bang with him. Maybe not a good one in all circumstances, but the people that write Kimbo's stand up off because he was a street tough or whatever are wrong in my opinion. Sure...

Dude.

Plus, he probably only weighs about 125 pounds. I don't care if he can shoot lightning from his hands and summon the forces of nature. Abe would win. He weighs so much more.
