Originally posted by miketg23 I would like to see this. Who else at middleweight can the throw at him. The two "boring" fights, were mainly caused by Anderson being bored with his competition imo. The UFC really has to pursue some talent in all divisions, as it seems all 5 champs are on top of their game, and practically unbeatable.

Penn at 155 - check
GSP at 170 - Check
Silva at 185 - Check
Machida at 205 - Check

Is there a weight class between 205 and HW? Because Lesnar is certainly beatable. He's a monster, but he's shiny like a new penny.

^^^ that's what they need. maybe at 230-240? it's really not acceptable for a n00b like Brock to still be able to beat people, mainly because he's got a 15-20% weight advantage. 285 vs 230? ridiculous. either that or they need a super HW division at 250+ or something, but either way the talent pool would be pretty thin at the heavier weight.

Anderson is actually one of the most respectful fighters out there. I wouldn't call him cocky at all. I can't recall ever hearing him trash talk an opponent, unless that person said some ridiculous shit about him, lol.

Silva is a nice guy, so is GSP and Machida is quiet too. IMHO, that's the way it SHOULD be...but it probably drives Dana crazy since trash talk seems to sell tickets and it's harder to market these guys to the masses.

Sorry.

As for Brock, I think it's more of the UfC's heavyweight division being rather soft. I'd like to see either Cain or Carwin take him out, but I don't think it's going to happen

Lol. Your point is still made though, that's a whole lot of people who aren't going to lose any time soon. And if Lesnar doesn't lose in his next 2-3 matches, he'll probably have improved enough in that time to hold his title for a long time as well.

Silva has probably one of the best characters a man can possess, just like all masters of martial arts. I bet you'd like to know!

Agreed, people like this form of entertainment and it sells like hot buns.
When GSP obtain's his 4th degree black belt in karate, he'll be unbeatable to whomever comes his way. I like him because mainly he's wise & maturing with the right perspective.
Machido, who does he train with? I heard that with Silva.

Who the fuck cares if he's cocky or not? He's being paid to smash other guys' faces in, not be a nice guy. Fighting is the one sport where you want your fighter to be cocky. You want him to have something to prove. And if a cocky guy gets his ass handed to him, it's that much more entertaining.

agreed you're going into a ring with another guy who can most likely kill you in the ring. You have to mindfuck everyone, yourself included that you are going to kick some ass. any doubt any hesitation and you might find yourself in the hospital.

For those who missed the embarrassment
