Penn vs. GSP not till FEB 09

[The Mad Felcher]

My inside sources lead me to believe that the Mega Fight this year for the UFC New Years Eve Card is going to be officially announced by the UFC and not a bunch of flaming retards guessing on a fucking blogsite.

It's the Randy Couture Syndrome, get used to it

And that HW champ
was KTFO by Heath and barely escaped.

and then was losing decisively to big Timmy

and then he doesn' fight again, and he is the reigning "undisputed" UFC HW champ?
sitting is more like it.

Based on Nog's UFC display, he is no longer a top 5 Heavyweight (world)
Yes, he will easily defeat Mir

But today's Werdum, Fedor, AA, Barnett easily beat him

Add in guys like Couture, Gonzaga, undersized Vera, Big Tim, Aleks E, are more than capable of winning.

Nog is showing his age, gracefully.
But soon even that chin and heart won't be enough

I think there's always a caveat attached.

This is a forum, so obviously we're going to discuss what we think will happen, and if someone says "Fedor is going to fight cabbage" people are going to say "cabbage is a dead man walking"... But this is mma, so just about anything is possible.

However, certain outcomes are simply much more likely.

That's true I just wish people weren't so definitive about things.

Say: I think Anderson will win.

or Anderson by tko

but don't act like the fight's already happened. Don't say. COTE HAS ZERO CHANCE, ANDERSON HAS ALREADY WON!.

They'll give all their stars whatever they want. Do you think GSP would have to beat 3 or 4 middleweights to fight Silva? Hell no! GSP, if/when he moves up will get an automatic title shot.

This is a business. Big names = privileges. Like it or not.
