Quinton Rampage Jackson wants Revenge

April 30, 2009 · Posted in MMA, Sport, UFC · Comment 

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton Rampage Jackson wants revenge for his loses.

Rampage former Pride sar lost to Shogun Rua at Pride and more recently where he lost to Forrest Griffin and lost his light heavyweight title at UFC 86.

Rampage will no doubt want to fight for the title after the upcoming battle at UFC 98 between champion Rashad Evans and Lyoto Machida, with his guarenteed fight against the victor, but he has said in many interviews he wishes to avengue his losses.

It might be a while until the fights happen, as Forrest has just signed to face middleweight champion Anderson Silva. With Shogun just beating Liddell at UFC 97 it maybe more likely if but and maybe but would love to see a battle between Shogun and Rampage, lets just say it would be a real knock out.

I think if Forrest and Rampage fight again it wont be like the first fight. Be interesting to see what oppenent Rampage gets first as both Shogun and Griffin are back in the pecking order in the light heavyweight division.

Personally speaking I think Rampage will go through both quite easily providing he gets through the winner from UFC 98.

Anderson Silva Vs Forrest Griffin Confirmed for UFC 101

April 30, 2009 · Posted in MMA, Sport, UFC · 1 Comment 

UFC 101
Date – August 8th 2009
Arena – Wachovia Center, PA, America

After the lacklustre performance at UFC 97 and the boo’s from the Canadian crowd, Dana White UFC president has revealed that he will push middleweight champion up a division to light heavyweight again.

Dana and Anderson must mean business as Anderson will fight former lightweight champion Forrest Griffin. Griffin held the belt for one fight until he lost to current belt holder Rashad Evans. Griffin defeated Quinton Rampage Jackson at UFC 86 last July, he held the belt until UFC 92 at the end of 2008.

Anderson Silva is 9 unbeaten in the UFC and held the middleweight belt for a record breaking 7 fights.

This will be a real gem, this could propel Forrest Griffin to a title shot or could really make Anderson Silva the best shot for a light heavyweight and middleweight champion.

Personally I think The Spider will knock out Forrest early in the first, as James Irvin found out mid July 2008.

Swizz Beatz – When I step in the club video

April 27, 2009 · Posted in Hip Hop, Music, Video · Comment 

I am a fan of Swizz Beatz as a producer but sometimes his tracks as an artist is questionable.

This video could be an old skool Busta, think the track is a grower. Still unsure

UFC 97 – Anderson Silva Vs Thales Leites my thoughts and reactions

April 23, 2009 · Posted in MMA, Sport, UFC, Video · 2 Comments 

Here comes a rant so please bare with me please….

Ok so for the people who didnt see the fight or hasn’t seen the reports:-
Anderson Silva defeated Thales Leites after 5 rounds, yes he did go 5 rounds.

A brief explanation of the fight, very defensive start and leading Thales Leites always dropping onto his back if Anderson Silva looked to take control. Silva in turn had to come out attacking in round 3 and for the next two rounds took apart Thales Leites who didnt seem to be able to deal with the best pound for pound fighter in the world. The Canadian fans booed from the second round.

Which really frustrates is the fans for a start, then the abuse Anderson recieved from other fighters, the fans and the press…. and Dana White.
What everyone needs to remember is he is the top fighter, the title holder and now record holder for unbeaten fighting run in the UFC and most title defenses in UFC history.
If you hold the title the contender has to do enough to beat you whether it is a knock out, a TKO or submission, which Leites wouldnt have done in 50 rounds.
So Anderson Silva did more than enough to retain his title and the challenger did not. Whether it was the game plan or the shear fear when facing Anderson Silva.

The more annoying fact is how rude the fans were ringside, I know it was not the best fight almost boring… but then if you cannot appreciate the fight and what the fighters are doing then dont buy the tickets.
The fans ringside wouldnt all have been casual fans but are definitely blinded by hometown favourite GSP, Joe Rogan had it spot on in commentary.
Chanting his name during the title fight is disrespectful and had no relevance to the fight. All this crap about GSP moving up and possibly fighting Anderson Silva is nonsense in my honest opinion, the only way that will happen is if there is a real shortage of talent in middleweight which there is not really or Silva cannot go up to light heavyweight and destroy that division which he is more than capable of doing as demonstrated against James Irvin last July 2008.
GSP still has to beat Thiago Alves who is more than able to knock GSP out in one punch and then there is the matter of the GSP BJ Penn rubber match after grease gate, which Dana White and Joe Silva have to give the fans after grease gate scandal and it is still really unfinished business.

The other issue I have is Dana White, attacking Anderson Silva for not throwing punches, knees, elbows etc, coming out and saying your embarassed by your top figher is crazy. Note to Steve Cofield you are a journo tool who clearly is scooping for a story…. you clearly do not get MMA!

Video interview between Steve Cofield and Dana White

My personal feelings is that if Dana is that annoyed with Anderson Silva then seak to him and his management or either let him fight Roy Jones Jr in the boxing match they both clearly want or lastly, make Anderson move up to light heavyweight (and at Dana’s risk possibly make your middleweight less attractive, which the UFC cannot afford at the moment as it is probably the weakest division at the moment)

This would be my thoughts -
Get GSP and Thiago Alves fight at UFC 100 over and done with – if GSP wins then let BJ Penn beat Kenny Florian at UFC 101. Then let GSP BJ Penn 3 (rubber match) happen
Get the light heavyweight division clearer, so let the UFC 98 title fight happen, Lyoto Machida and champ Rashad Evans. Then let Rampage have his title shot against the winner. Allow the fight between Dan Henderson and Michael Bisping happen at UFC 100, then you have your top fighters mapped out.
Allow Anderson have a couple of months off then get him to fight a top 5 fighter, whether its Forrest, the loser of the title shot or throw him in. You then can set up the real big fights and have Anderson fighting the bigger more powerful fighters and will no doubt knock the majority out or make them tap.

Ultimately Anderson Silva was treated unfairly and was attacked because everyone expects him to kick 7 bells out of all the fighters the UFC put in front of him, Dana White needs to remember that not every fight can end in a TKO or submission and if it did then he would have to line up 15 fights per card.

Give him a break and back your top fighter or lose him!

Rant over… ;-)
