1st time watching pride

[MANWHORE]

Waterman and Mirco are fighting now...Well,Crocop won,but i didn't like it. He was kicking waterman in the head while waterman was curled up on the ground and the ref stopped it. He almost hit waterman with a kick to the head while waterman was standing. Now that would have been nice to see.

 

[Mark Kerr]

Yeah, those soccer kicks (kicks to the head while opponent is on the ground) can be brutal eh?

[MK]

If you want to see a great Cro-Cop high-kick, download his fight against Igor Vovchancyn.

 

[MANWHORE]

I'm guessing the high left kick is his trade mark?

 

[Mark Kerr]

Yeah, there is actually a funny quote by him during an interview:

Bas Rutten: How powerful are your high-kicks?

Mirko Filipovic: Hmm? I dont know...Right-leg...Hospital...Left-Leg...Cemetary.

As much as I like Cro-Cop, I think Fedor is the favorite for the upcoming Grand Prix. If Fedor takes Mirko to the ground, I dont see Mirko ever getting back up!

[MANWHORE]

Just watched Mirko and Sapp and sap fell after a kick to the abs. Those kicks look deadly,but Sapp seems like he gets tired too fast. What was Miko's fighting style before MMA? I'm guessing moyi thai,but he's alot bigger than the average Thai boxer. I just saw a few of his other fights which were high kick knockouts

 

[Grizzly]

Is there an event on tonight? Is bushido on? WTF!

I don't understand your assertion that kicking a downed opponent isn't cool. Arent' you the same guy who liked the "old-school, hardcore" UFC"s when there was no rules?

No that wasn't me. Did i say that it wasn't cool? I don't like it,but i don't think i said anything about it. It was the first Mirko fight i saw and i couldn't really tell how good he was with him wining like that. I just saw highlights of some more of his fights and all i can say is DAMN!!! Someone is going to get hurt bad with one of those kicks. He has fast hands too,but i didn't see his groundwork.

 

[Grizzly]

His ground work is poor. He beat the hell out of Nogueira but lost to the arm bar because he did something a 2nd week BJJ student learns not to do.

However, it doesn't matter because he's a bitch to take down so he rarely sees the ground. That will be his downfall against Fedor. Fedor will put him down and then kill him from there.

 

[Mark Kerr]

The only hope Mirko has against Fedor is that Fedor was rocked by Fujita in a stand-up shootout...

Isn't that cool?.. if you didn't like it, then you will HATE Silva

Fedor is nuts, i too think he'll win the GP, but he's an idiot sometimes, and if he doesn't realize that Mirko IS the better fighter standing he'll be out, he just needs to be cautious.

-OT

 

[Grizzly]

He needs to close the distance QUICK and hit one of those bodylocks he does so well. Otherwise, he might get his head kicked off.

 

[MANWHORE]

when is he fighting Fedor? Grizz,who's your best fighter?

 

[Grizzly]

They'll end up fighting each other in the Pride GP, whenever that is.

It's hard for me to choose a favorite. I like Matt Hughes, Crocop, Fedor and Wanderlei Silva the most, I think. Of course, I'm also a fan of myself, LOL.

Those are probably my current favorites.

I don't like Hughes but i'm gonna watch some of Fedor and Silva's fights now. By the way,i think Tank could take Sapp. I just saw 2 of Sapp's fights,but it seems like he gets winded fast and doesn't like the ground.... O man,i didn't know Tito fought Silva. O ok,that's the guy Vitor beat in 14 sec
