jump off his nuts. he can be the grandmaster of boxing, but we aren't talking about that. we are talking about what he is good at. By his wins, he has good ground game.


So please, get off his nuts....Arona dangerous? Well, anyone does have a punchers chance.
get the fuck out of here man...

The African Asassin will be victorious!

I'm only posting here to increase my posting count. Ha ha.

Just kidding.

I can see why this question is being asked. I had this conversation at the NAMMAE with the guys, as we stood in line to get Hendo's autograph.

As others have stated, if you look deeper into hour Rameau Sokoudjou is as a fighter, you'll see that he is very well-rounded and a big threat.

I see him taking this fight in the 2nd round.

Sokoudjou was out struck by....damn that guy he fought in WEC.

Machida is patient and will pick Sokoudjou apart.

Machida wins decision. yet again.
I almost agree

That's the truth and it should be the end of this thread right there. Team Quest has plenty of world class fighters. Getting your ass beat by top guys everyday in sparring will certainly make you progress, as you train with them as well.

No because Soko actually looked good. Houston looked sloppy as hell in both fights, and got way too many huggers on him.

Houston Alexander was the next Rameau Thierry Sokdoujou who was the next Mark Hunt. So how is Soku the next Houston???? My brain hurts.

I presume you mean Houston, because your comment would sound idiotic if you are referring to Sokoudjou's wins.
