Originally posted by Mr incredibleAnderson Silva's win was a shambles, there are supposed to be no downward strikes with thye elbow, he should have been dq'd. Travis Luttor was demoralised befor he started but shown he could take down Silva at will, and that triangle didn't win the fight Lutter was breathing fine he pointed to the top of his head to indicate to the ref bout the elbow strikes and then tapped cos the ref did nout!
shame
Rampage looed goo, eastman would be no pushover to anyone unless fluke
Watch it again. He never hit him one time directly on top of the head. Every time it was from a top-side lateral blow, not a vertical strike. And Lutter should have been demoralized for being too mentally weak to take the extra step to make weight. He said flat out "I just couldn't find the motivation to cut weight." How about a fkn MW title for motivation?! He didn't deserve to be there and he proved it by his unprofessionalism. But hey...that's just my opinion.
Eastman is big and strong, but he has a weak chin. Hell he got ko'd by Lutter!

I don't think Franklin will make it past McDonald next month to even get a rematch at Silva. I think Franklin is a highly over rated fighter w/a really big head. But his ego was smashed when he lost to Silva so he may approach things differently. Which would be beneificial to him.

Originally posted by radoI don't agree...I think he's a great fighter and the loss was an eye opener and his ego? Well I think he'll keep that in check for now.
He has a great record against really tough opponents, but I just can't get past his arrogance. I know fighters have to have a certain attitude and mindset but he acted like he was the greatest fighter on the planet when they brought him in as a guest trainer on Ultimate Fighter and he refused to train half the time meanwhile sitting there talking shit. Then he went on to get his ass handed to him in embarrassing and dramatic fashion. He said he was surprised and overwhelmed by the speed and strength of Silva. That just shows how his ego got in the way. That loss could have been the one eye opener he needed to go on to be an unstoppable force, but I doubt it.
I'm looking forward to his fight next month. I think it'll be a good battle.Last edited by blm; 02-05-07, 05:17 PM.

I'm thinking maybe training with the miletich camp may get him into fighting shape. Maybe motivate him or something. I think getting literally fucked up by silva may have him actually thinking now.Originally posted by blmHe has a great record against really tough opponents, but I just can't get past his arrogance.

Maybe, but you don't see guys like fedor being that way. I think being thrown into commercials and being pumped up to be ufc's golden boy in mw kind of made it happen. I think hanging around hughes might have had some of that arrogance rub off on him too.Originally posted by radoNothing wrong with being arrogant:) Shit gets to your head when you have no losses and making all that money...
