I remember seeing him in UFC, I also remember when Vanderlai beat him the second time, because a Brazilian guy in my class mentioned it every 2 seconds.

the 2nd win was utter s**t. I mean really, it was so lucky of Silva to break his arm with that slam. That Gulliotine was locked in. And Saku had been dominating that fight. And even after the broken arm he continued to defend.

Well all fights have a certain random/luck factor.

Meh, didn't look like Saku was dominating the fight to me. It looked pretty even up until the end. That slam would've broken the hold even if it didn't break Sak's arm....I mean, that'd be pretty difficult to keep a hold of. Like I said previously, if Sak had gotten into guard before lift off, he coulda choked him out. But he didn't and Silva had the quick thinking to slam him. Its not luck, its a matter of who did it first.

Point wise Saku was dominating, Sure Silva would have gotten out. And no, i don't call the SLAM lucky. I call the fact that it broke his arm lucky. But just think, if Saku wins the Gp, alot of people will probably change their opinions and agree he is the greatest fighter ever.

Until Silva beats him down again....which is bound to happen if another match is set. In fact wasn't Silva suppose to fight Saku for a 4th time, but then he ended up fightin' some guy from K-1? I really need to get cable and pay-per-view.....waiting for the DVD's to come out is really starting to get annoying. I'm still waiting for to see the FIRST fight between Silva and Rampage.....let alone the second bout....DAMN YOU PAY-PER-VIEW!!!!

He fractured a spinal disc. Even Saku knows not to fight with that. He actually would have though. But DSE wouldn't let him. Mark Hunt is who he fought AND lost to. was pretty even in my opinion. But i gave the Edge to silva. The Judges gave Hunt the win though. Probably due to Hunt's BILLION point Atomic butt drop. lol. I honestly think that with the time saku's had to heal, he'll do pretty well. I think he has a good shot at beating Silva.

Yeah I heard about the loss. My friend said it was a b.s. loss. I'm just takin' his word for it.

Man. It wasn't that BS. But you gotta take into consideration. Who exactly was Hunt training for? i mean, a 1-2 week notice fight. In your 2nd 3rd MMA fight, AGAINST the LHW champion? That's still impressive either way.

I started downloading like ten fights of Sakuraba after that I'll be able to post an intellectual opinion based on him.
PostPosted: Thu Mar 17, 2005 7:51 pm


fights of him in his Prime? Or recent fights. In which he was actually still quite remarkable.

I'd upload the 90 minute fight between him and Royce, in which he put royce to shame in EVERY department. Stand up, ground work, wrestling. Everything. I mean s**t, i have all the respect in the world for Royce, but i seems like after that all he did was fight dirty or cans. I mean dude, that kick on yoshida was NOT a ******** inside leg kick. But yeah, It's a 90 minute video. That thing would take FOREVER to upload. I mean Saku even got nutted in that fight, he didn't even take a break. Then he goes to fight for another 30 minutes. Or was it 45? forget, anyway he almost beats Igor, one of the top HWs at that time. You tell me that that is not the most manly and skilled thing you've ever heard of. I mean s**t, if he wasn't so tired that armbar would have ended the match. lol.

Renzo got ******** owned. lol. And to think, the gracies were once thought to be the people you NEVER give your back to. What does saku do, he gives them his back, and they just back off. lol. Or get a broken arm.
