Professor X is garbage. He has a glass chin and it is so visibly apparent in his structure. McFederies got given a win from the UFC. He was 3-4, beating guys who have questionable chins, losing to anyone who can throw better than him. Sean Sherk is not on steroids either. His test before his fight was negative, and a second post-fight test came back negative. He prove his innocence and I have trained with him multiple times and can easily tell that he is not someone who takes steroids.

I value your opinion, but I highly doubt that Professor X has a glass chin. McFedries hit him with like 3 haymakers to start, put him on queer street and continued to bang on him.

I don't think many people could have survived that onslaught if you let him get started.

Cro Cop's coming back!
I'm cautiously excited...I'm praying he's back in form. From what I've heard, his knee surgery gave him the opportunity to re-ignite his passion for boxing. Hopefully he uses his hands more (especially his laser left straight) and sets up his kicks.

So Canseco or Hong Man Choi?

[Not Robert]

Choi, definitely. Canseco is scared.

If he was truely innocent why was he positive the first time. Also I just enjoyed the knock out thats all I am saying.

If your pre-fight test comes back negative, your post fight test comes back positive and your retest comes back negative it shows that you are in fact not cheating. The benefits of doing steroids cannot come from within a single week, and the drug that he was accused of taking nandrolone not only occurs naturally in the human body but can be increased by the simple use of cold sore medication. Sean Sherk is privy to having cold sores because he lives in Minnesota and thus may have cases at least once a year, and when he came to train at Evolution MAFA in Mississauga, Ontario in January, 2008 he was suffering from cold sores. His urine test was not treated properly by the lab that the commission used to test his urine and thus the test is inadmissible and Sherk's belt should have never been removed.

In court, if a test sample is not treated properly it is removed as evidence as there is a percentage of error. His pre-test sample and post-test sample all came back clean, at facilities where his urine was tested properly, which would be admissible in court, as well as the lie detector test which he used to further prove his innocence. Sean Sherk never took nandrolone.

I'm disappointed Kid lost. Hopefully we'll see him in the WEC sometime soon.

Alright seems like you did your home work and steriods and other drugs used to increase your preformance. In regards to his belt getting taken away Bj destroyed him so I am not to sure he would even have the belt still it would have simply delayed the process.

[Trop.exe]

I do agree with you that even if Sherk did have the belt, I am sure he would have lost it to BJ, obviously to Frankie Edgar.

Just found this topic. Sorry if I get us off topic abit here but, when or if Silva beats Griffin who does he have left as a challenge. He could fight GSP because natrually GSP walks around 190ish so its possible. Though if they were to fight I feel that GSP will proably get dominated in the standup and have a hard time keeping Silva on his back. Though GSP proably has the best wrestling Silva has ever gone up against (equal or abit aboved Hendo give or take). So he still does have a shot against Silva. Its just that Silva is proably the most dominant fighter between him and Fedor to ever grace the planet.

The winner of Henderson and Bisping should get first crack. Then the winner of Marquardt and Maia. And then Okami.

And what makes you think Forrset Griffin is going to lose?

Ok Forrest will most likely lose due to the fact that he doesnt really out match Silva in any aspect. Even though he comes in with a great game plan and has much cleaner striking and a tremendous chin. Its the fact that Silva is on a whole other level. Not trying to take anything away from Forrest because in my opinion he is a world class fighter also.

After Silva last fight, it puts into question his dominance. Forrest has still have a chance. And it's MMA, anything can happen

Kenny is far too overrated IMO. He's definitely a good fighter but I think against big Lightweights he'd get run over, especially against guys like Gray Maynard. You get those good strong wrestlers on him and they'll manhandle Kenny. I have done three seminars with Sherk now and he keeps telling me that Kenny would still lose to him off of takedowns alone. If Kenny manages to beat Penn then Sherk will simply take it away from him.

Realize though Penn is not a wrestler, he is a BJJ specialist. There is a difference there.

I know that Penn is not a wrestler, but I was referring to guys with great wrestling backgrounds like Maynard who could use their size to make Kenny look bad like Sanchez did; noting that Sanchez is not a wrestler either.

Forrest v. Silva - This is probably the hardest to predict given that it all depends on what fighter shows up with Forrest, the smart tactical one or the one that allows his emotions to get the best of him. The smart Forrest is going to use his size, work his way inside, force Silva against the fence and eventually take Silva down, hold him down there long enough to win rounds. Silva's guard is not active just like Quinton's and we saw what the result was of that. If Forrest makes it a stand up fight, expect to see Forrest eating a ton of jabs and having to have facial reconstruction.

Evans v. Machida - Machida is definitively the favourite for this fight. He's a much more technical striker, much faster than Evans and has an underrated ground game compared to Evans. Everyone seems to forget that Lyoto trained in wrestling with one of Japan's top wrestlers since he was fifteen, threw Tito around; something Rashad could not do. Machida trains extremely hard and have not heard anything in regards to him having a weak chin and given how hard his brother kicks I think he'll be able to deal with Evan's power.

Davis v. Hardy - Marcus Davis has better hands, better footwork, and is the better striker. His ground game is definitely improving and I am sure that he has been training that far more extensively than Dan Hardy is in England. Marcus Davis should win this quite easily.

Also while the UFC is a very professional organization it is not the best organization as the UFC has become more focused on making money now that it has grown in popularity so much and not giving the fans who have supported it and made it what it is today what they want to see which is the best versus the best, not marketable fighter versus marketable fighter.

Hardy, however doesn't train exclusively in England. He trains BJJ with Eddie Bravo.
