Mac.McCarty Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Who are you guys pulling for this season? I was hoping for Roy Nelson but he looks more out of shape then usual and he is also coming off two straight defeats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac.McCarty Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Kimbo is goign to have trouble vs wrestlers no doubt, even his takedown defence looked kind of sketchy. Judging from the season previews I don't think nelson is going to do that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anderson007 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I like to reserve judgement but Jon Madsen did look good but for a heavyweight I think he seemed to lack finishing power. Although, I'm sure some refs would have stopped that fight due to the amount of blood on show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I'm going with Sims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 i'm pulling for kimbo just because i always have a soft spot for underdogs. also i hope madsen gets raped in his next fight because that fake hand shake shit was lame as fuck.

Face Kicker Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 i don't really have a prediction, other than that they will wait as long as possible to have kimbo fight. as a side note, that cut in the first fight was naaaaasty. shit looked like it was an 2 inches wide and an inch deep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac.McCarty Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Did Abe even hit him with a punch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 i dont remember seeing him even throw a punch, and yeah that cut was fucking disgusting. i would have been ok with them stopping this fight for the cut since the guy didnt even try to fight back the whole time anyway.

Mac.McCarty Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Do you guys think Abe and Rampage will have bad blood for the rest of the show? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djohn Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I think anyone who Rampage "Trains" could potentially have bad blood with him. If I was on the show, especially after seeing his bullshit last performance, I would have been begging Rashad for a spot on his team. Rampage's coaching consisted of putting HIS fighter in a Blatant Mismatch of Technique in favor of his opponent... then when things went south all he could do is yell "Work Abe Work! Come on Abe!" "He's DOING THE SAME THING!" All priceless jewels of experience I tell ya. Then he storms out like a whiney bitch. I love Jackson as a fighter, but I feel sorry for the guys who's careers are gonna be fucked up because A: He can't coach, and B: He doesn't give a fuck about anyone but Kimbo.

Rampage's team has no corner man; Rashad's team has Greg Jackson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the whole faking the touching of gloves thing is pretty dodgy. Anyway, I haven't decided who I want to win yet, but I agree with the general consensus here with people saying Rampage and his team do not appear to be looking good. It's a shame too, because I like Rampage. He just doesn't seem to be good at this whole coaching business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Rampage was letting Abe know that he was gonna go for the take down AGAIN...and yet all Abe did was throw a weak punch....he was attempting to tell him to at least try and stop the take down. Pulling for Kimbo or Big Country... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulling for Kimbo or Big Country... OK, I'll give you in that instance he did yell "He's doing the same thing!" which is an attempt at coaching at least. But Imagine you're getting your ass stomped by a dude. You've been getting your ass stomped for 7 minutes or so already. Your opponent has opened up a vagina above your right eye. You finally get stood up and your corner is yelling "He's doing the same thing!" If it was me, I might know what the fuck he's talking about... but given the conditions I think he could have been a little more specific. "Watch the Takedown" "Sprawl ABE!" When you yell something like "He's doing the same thing" you could just as easily cause a train wreck in the person's brain your trying to help. In the time your trying to figure out What the hell he is doing that is the same, your down on the mat again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage was shouting to Abe the whole time he was on his back to either "Sweep or get up". Abe wasnt doing ANYTHING. Abe knew Madsen was gonna come in and attempt to take him down everytime he got up. Its not that hard to understand that a wrestler is going to try and take down a guy with superior striking. If Abe needed someone to tell him that he shouldn't of been on the show in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 I see Nelson, Schaub or Sims pullin' it out. Size isn't everything, Marcus Jones will lose and by Knock out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying when you're beat to the brink of senseless, going on for 7 minutes, I can see where some of Jackson's "training" sounded a little ambiguous. Only seen Wagner in that one fight, and he totally did not look like he belonged on the show basing my assessment off that one fight. But Rampage picked him. Rampage Selected when Abe would fight, and who he would be fighting. After making those poor descisions for his fighter..... leaving before the fight was even over is the certified move of a Titty Baby.

Rambo Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Rampage is my favorite fighter. Some love was lost after he decided to delay the Rashad fight, if he loses that fight, I don't know how I could forgive him (as a fan) With that bein said, Rampage isn't the best coach. He's actually a pretty awful coach. He's needs coached, he's that type of person, he's not the coach. Greg Jackson obviously brings a lot more to the table. AND, I am a Tampa Bay Buccaneer fan. Marcus Jones was not all that on the football field (Hershel Walker signed a deal with Strikeforce) and he doesn't look near in shape enough to compete. He's big, but big for nothin. I hope he does great and whatever, I want Kimbo to win, but Marcus Jones will prolly be eliminated fairly quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 I'm hoping Marcus Jones wins. As the first episode showed, he lacks conditioning. It's fair to say he probably lacks fighting skills. And in everyone's eyes, at least from what I've heard, he's an underdog. So it'll be cool to see if he can work hard enough to win the whole thing.
