Chazz Reinhold Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 post updates here. i read about a month ago that a 3rd card would happen in either may or june....the way it looks, it will probably be june. they said they are definately NOT going under to UFC.......personally i think the heavyweight division here is 2nd to none.
venom33 Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 great thing about affliction is that their card is stacked from top to bottom with great fights! hell even the undercard has great fighters on it! unlike the ufc where you may see two really good fights with top notch fighters, the rest are normally diluted with TUF'ers.
Guest baseball25 Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 http://mmaweekly.com/rumors.asp they have nothing set in stone right now..there heavyweight divison is ok but thats all they have...I mean tim silvia is done....Arvloski is done...Affliction is going to have a hard time making it just plain and simple...if they were smart and they want to have a big event.....Fedor vs Tito........thats the money maker ...tito will get a buck kicking but everyone wants to see him fight......Just like mike tyson.if he came out of retirement rightnow everyone would still want to see him fight...

Guest baseball25 Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 yeah I like the affliction Pviews but arvloski don't a chin its glass and very breakable...its ok though Fedor will beat barnett and then sign with UFC........FEDOR VS LESNAR.......BIGGEST EVENT EVER.....AND A BIG BIG time money maker will be up there with tyson and holyfield...but not quite oscar and floyd
Chazz Reinhold Posted March 16, 2009 Author Report Posted March 16, 2009 yeah I like the affliction Pviews but arvloski don't a chin its glass and very breakable...its ok though Fedor will beat barnett and then sign with UFC........FEDOR VS LESNAR.......BIGGEST EVENT EVER.....AND A BIG BIG time money maker will be up there with tyson and holyfield...but not quite oscar and floyd fedor wont sign with ufc because dana white is an idiot and wont let "the baddest man on the planet" do what he wants....which is sambo tournaments. and you wont see a fedor and tito fight 1.) tito is a light heavy weight and fedor is a heavy weight and 2.) even if tito were in his prime he wouldnt even come close to contending with fedor. maybe in a year or 2 you will see a fedor v. lesnar fight....but as of now its not even in the picture. and arlovski still has it.....the guy was controlling fedor until he attempted a flying knee....if there ever is a rematch then i expect it to go past 1 round.
Guest baseball25 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 DANA isn't idiot I mean the guy is a smart man he doesn't need fedor or the ufc doesn't need him either...TITO walks around 225 he could fight at lightheavy weight easy...I am not saying he would win I already said he would get a butt kicking...I am talking about making money here......
Chazz Reinhold Posted March 18, 2009 Author Report Posted March 18, 2009 DANA isn't idiot I mean the guy is a smart man he doesn't need fedor or the ufc doesn't need him either...TITO walks around 225 he could fight at lightheavy weight easy...I am not saying he would win I already said he would get a butt kicking...I am talking about making money here...... dana is an idiot. he taunts anyone who isnt fighting under the UFC logo (ie fedor, kimbo, etc.). yes hes a good buisiness man but hes an idiot. tito fights at 205, therefore he does NOT "run around" at 225....if your goin 20 lbs over your fight weight limit, your way outta shape and your probably gonna get beat....bad. and another thing.....tito doesnt need the money. the guy has GOBS of money from previous fights and to top it off....hes with jenna jameson...guarantee shes got a good bit of cash too.
Guest baseball25 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 I know for a fact tito walks around that much almost every lightheavyweight does.....look it up on the internet its a no brainer..just like anderson silva they say he walks around 210-215 go to this site http://mma.groups.cbssports.com/mcc/groups/post/8800919/8995659 http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=active&q=Hamill+walks+around+at+225 UFC 76 Shogun vs Machida picks - Page 12 - Sherdog Mixed Martial ...I would dare to compare machida to babalu as one of shoguns opponents in history. .... Tito usually walks around at 220-225.
Guest baseball25 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 If dana didn't act like that then the UFC would have never made.......Dana is a smart man...I know he is a little punk...but he does what he has to do to get things done.....
Chazz Reinhold Posted March 21, 2009 Author Report Posted March 21, 2009 If dana didn't act like that then the UFC would have never made.......Dana is a smart man...I know he is a little punk...but he does what he has to do to get things done..... i clearly said hes a good buisiness man....but hes still an idiot. he could handle things so much better and as for your previous post....thats a MUCH larger Matt hamil you have listed there in the interview....not tito. also your other link is a forum(about anderson silva...not tito)....just opinions....dont back your "fact" with an opinion. it appears you think you know more about mma than you actually do. do some research and get your facts straight before you make your self look silly.
Guest baseball25 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 Go to all those sites it all talks about how much these guys cut its common since these guys walk around 20 to 25 pounds heavier than what they usually are for the fights....its just like boxers....I saw tito at the last affliction with my cousin and he was way bigger than 205 he was athleast 225.. http://www.grapplearts.com/How-to-Cut-Weight.html http://mmamania.com/2007/01/31/josh-burkman-cut-40-pounds/ http://www.presstelegram.com/sports/ci_4029748?source=sb-reddit http://www.fighting-mma.com/mma-matchups/2008/ufc-86-betting-odds-quinton-jackson-forrest-griffin.php

venom33 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 Fedor and Barnett will both be on this free card on July 11th just not facing one another...

Guest baseball25 Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 tito talks about on fight night he's 220....all I am saying these guys usually walk around 20 pounds heavier than what they usually are...When I takled to them at the events you can tell how big they are and they will tell you that they walk around atleast 20 pounds heavier..They said anderson silva walks around 220...I mean I wouldn't just been saying this if I didn't think it was true..Just like boxers they walk around 20 pounds are so heavier and then come weight in they make weight and the next night they weight there like 15 pounds heavier...I mean just think if you trained for 2 straight months non stop everyday and you weight 215 u can get down to 185 with out a problem this is what these guys do...and I got pretty good sources too so I wouldn't just make this up....Let me know if you need tickets to affliction in july I can prob get you some tickets.. http://mmamania.com/2008/05/10/old-school-beatdown-mmamaniacom-exclusive-interview-with-the-tito-ortiz/
Guest baseball25 Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 Man I am telling you he does....if he's 220 on fightnight then what do you think he walks around at.......its atleast 225.....All the fighters do this tito is a big guy man.....Rashad is big,stephon bonnar,rampage all the guys walk around 225
Chazz Reinhold Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Posted March 24, 2009 whatever you say home skillet. ill believe what i want and you believe what you want....this thread is about affliction 3 not what fighters walk around at. its dragged on long enough.
LUFAN Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 Chazz you got it all wrong buddy... Baseball is right. Look at GSP and Matt Hughes they fight at 170 but walk around at almost 190 and are at about 185 fight night. They cut water weight to make the weight class then replenish themselves after they weigh in. Â
Guest baseball25 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 thank you LU Fan..I mean its just common sense stuff........GSP already said he wants to fight at 185 against Silva and said he could make it easy........and Anderson Silva said he wants to go to light heavyweight again and fight becasue he can make that weight easy....so do the math anderson fights at 185 and lightheavyweight is 205 thats 20 pounds so anderson silva walks around 210-215.......He's even said he could fight at heavyweight if he wanted..Lesnar walks around at 295 and has to get down to 275....

venom33 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 who gives a crap how much they weigh before,during,or after their fights? at any weight fedor,barnett,or overeem would destroy any of the fighters you guys have mentioned.
Chazz Reinhold Posted March 25, 2009 Author Report Posted March 25, 2009 haha thanks venom. fedor owns all
