  1. Based on what?

    He's may be the UFC Heavyweight Champion, but it can be argued heavily he is not the man in the UFC.

    Do the names of Anderson Silva, Lyoto Machid, or George Freakin' St. Pierre ring a bell?

    You're really too uninformed to be making such jump statements.

    I find it funny everything you are saying is based on Lesnar's performance tonight. Oblivious much?

    GSP is the man as well. Different weight classes. Brock is the man in his class and gsp in his class. Read about fedor on wiki. Sounds like brock would have to stay away from the armbar, but other than that, if brock starts humping fedor and lets loose with the hammerfists, it's all over.

  2. That's just complete stupidity and kills all of the little credibility you have.

    Out of 30 professional bouts, only 2 have been in the Affliction organization and he cleaned the clocked with two former UFC Heavyweight champions in Arlovski and Sylvia.

    Other notable victories Arona, Sobral, Herring, Nogueira, Fujita, Coleman, Randleman, CroCop, the list goes on.

    No one has dominated like he has in MMA. No one has and no one will. Fedor >>>>>>>> Lesnar.

    I'd have to see fedor fight lesnar before agreeing with that statement. Lesnar is just a beast and is the man in the mma world right now.

  3. What do you honestly have against research?

    Fedor Emelianenko has a career record of 30-1-1. He is considered to be the best heavyweight in the world.

    This is the only thing I know about fedor. He hates the ufc and will never will fight with them. Just think brock is too much of a monster for fedor to stand a chance. Brock said he would like to fight fedor in his espn interview, but can't due to diff orgs. Doesn't ufc have the best fighters? Fedor's with affliction right? Is he padding his record against chumps?

  4. Lesnar would have no chance against Fedor...Brock would be destroyed on feet, and if it went to the ground he would be submited quicker than the 1st time when he fought Mir.

    Fedor greatly outclasses Brock in every aspect but strength. AND they are same age, too.

    Yes Brock is a animal but that aint enough for beating a robot.

    I've never seen fedor fight before, but after watching brock tonight, I think it's safe to say brock would destroy fedor too. The guy is a freak of nature and needs his own super heavyweight division. He's a monster!

  5. Do you even know what humping is? He was keeping him on the ground.

    Yeah that was the humping. Everytime alves missed with a kick, gsp was quick with the takedown and then the humping would commence. The only diff b/w gsp and fitch was that fitch was doing the humping doggy style for all 3 rounds. Just don't see this depth of skills being displayed that people say brock is missing.

  6. clinching, submission, conditioning, etc.

    Why don't you actually educate yourself in the sport before you comment next time?

    I watched all the fights tonight and didn't see much style difference b/w matches. Once the humping starts, they all look the same.

  7. What I meant was this guy simply has a lot of power, which is all he has, I don't see him doing anything other then that really. Is that your opinion of wrestling/bjj etc ? lol, real intelligent. His wrestling good, but he doesn't use it a lot.

    No I would really like to know what these mma skills are? I'm a casual watcher and was watching with a friend who doesn't watch ufc and he said it was boring cause people are just humping each other all match. The fitch fight was all humping with barely any punches thrown. I don't see any skills. The best fight he said was the henderson fight cause they were throwing punches. What are these skills that other fighters are showing? I love gsp but even that match was mainly all humping by gsp. I don't see how one person's humping is different from another person's humping. They all look the same.

  8. Just as expected Mir lost, but damn Lesnar is douche, that guy has no respect for UFC or the fighters, he's just a big guy thats strong, I doubt he even has good MMA skill, fracking want to see this guy get rocked so badly.

    What are mma skills? From my casual watching of it, I only see 3 skills. Punching, Kicking and Humping the other guy on the ground or like in the fitch fight, humping the other guy doggy style. Someone needs to start teabagging the other guy. Does lesnar need to improve his humping skills? He was humping mir pretty good tonight and then landed his flurry of hammerfists for the win.

  9. Lesnar apologized to young viewers and bud light in his post game interview with espn. Sounded real classy in that interview. Said he's a sore loser and emotions took over in his post fight comments.

    Mir was talking crap about lesnar all week and lesnar beat him to a pulp. Great win for lesnar. Gotta love lesnar!

  10. Actually no, you are wrong. You have to be 20 years old to play in the AHL. There are exceptions, which is why Hodgson was able to play with the moose this year, but, for example, Hodgson cannot play for the moose next year because he will only be 19.

    You don't have to be 20. The original poster is correct and you're wrong. Nikita Filatov played in the ahl last year as an 18 year old. Age has nothing to do with it and it's all about whether a chl team has a player under contract and that's when they have to be 20 to play in the ahl. The rule is in place to protect the chl, so all nhl teams don't stash all the chl's star players in the ahl with no intention of using them in the nhl. All chl players can go to the ahl once their team's season is completed, which is why hodgson was allowed to play in the ahl this year.

    Everett does own jordan's rights, however, I'm not sure if he would be forced to go there if he left minny and didn't make the nhl or cause he has no contract with them, if he could bypass them and go to the ahl. I'd have to look that up. My initial guess is that he could go to the ahl cause a chl team had filatov's rights last year and he could have gone either to the chl or ahl and columbus chose the ahl for him.

  11. Interesting. That was one of the best reads of my life and his comments certainly indicate something. However, he's always been a big fish in a small pond.....now he's going to be a small fish for forseeable future. I think it will do some good.

    Those comments make jordan seem modest compared to evander kane.

    “I always love to score goals,” Kane told TSN. “I want to get as many as possible. I’m hoping to be a 50-goal guy one day.”

    If it sounds like Kane thinks his time with the Giants is nearing an end, it’s because he does.

    “Yeah, I do,” said Kane. “I think I’m only going to continue to get bigger and stronger and hopefully by the summer I’ll have put on enough weight and I think with my skill level I should be successful.”

    "Not being white is a challenge in itself," Kane says. "Much as people don't want to believe that, I think it is. In minor hockey, there was definitely some adversity. I had to earn everything I got. I'm a stronger person for it.

    "Just growing up, I always wanted to be the best player I could be and better than other players. It's going to be no different as I continue."

    Headlined by 2007 third-pick Kyle Turris of New Westminster and 2004 fourth pick Andrew Ladd of Maple Ridge, there has been a dam-burst of B.C. players drafted into the NHL this decade. But none in the top five from within Vancouver city limits since Beck, another east-end kid, went second 22 years ago.

    "To be honest, I've always expected this from myself," Kane says. "I don't know if anyone else did, but this was what I wanted to do. This was my plan right from the beginning."
