Ufc 73 Stacked

[J-Luck]

It really is stacked too. Nog's debut, Sherks first defence, Silva is just a beautiful technician and is an artist, Rashad's gonna clean house, and I mean... *Sigh* this is just gonna be a great card.

Winners???

Rashad's only weakness to Tito is jiu-jitsu, I'd say every thing else is equal(striking), or substantially stronger(wrestling).

Nog.... I mean c'mon. He's Nog.

I hope Sherk wins, and think he will, but Franca is showing himself to be a beast lately. He's never been tested by the likes of Sherk though, so we'll see.

Silva I think can win this if he doesn't get taken down easily, like with Lutter. I mean, he's fought good wrestlers before though, and I don't feel Marquetts jiu-jitsu is anywhere near as strong as Lutters, though I dont know much about him.

Franky Edgar is also on the card. I hope its a competitive fight, i dont want to see him get a ko or rnc in the first round.

Both title fights are gonna be exciting even if they go the distance, which Sherk vs Franca will probably go. Im not rooting for any particular guy to win but its always nice to see a change of champs. Marquardt is going to unleash some serious ground and pound.

Rashad is either going to dominate Tito and KO him or its gonna be a 3 round blanket party.

Nog subs Herring first round. Big deal.

I really hope this is not going to be the most "stacked" card UFC puts out for a while. That would be a shame, because they definitely have enough popular, talented and skilled fighters to form a card much more stacked than this one. But UFC 73 will be exciting as hell.

Tito/Rashad:

Remeber their striking is basically equal, so either could get the knockout, but I'd like to think there is going to be alot of grappling here. Tito, when confronted with the question of Rashad's wrestling, claimed he was himself, a successful D-1 wrestler, which is a complete lie. If he's willing to blatently lie just to make himself look better, then I think he's going to try to prove something. And Rashad knows he's the better wrestler on paper, so look for him to have no problem lockin up with Tito.

You decided to mention Frankie Edgar over Gurgel and Lytle??? Ahhhh my new MMA convert, you have much to learn yet.

Nog is always a big deal. It's fun just to watch HIM, his opponent is irrelevant.

Yea, if Marquardt can keep Silva down, it'll be a bad night for Silva. Other than that he's all set. I'd say Marquardt has a good 35-40% chance of winning this fight.

I would love to see Rashad dominate Tito, but I am afraid that Tito's mind-games will get to Rashad.

Marquardt is going to distroy Silva.....of course this is only my opinion but i strongly believe it enough.....Marquardt is sorta like Fitch they bolth got put on the untelevised undercards dispite destroying all their opponents...other then on Nate's debut.Nate is way better on the ground then Anderson Silva....Silva's ground game is way too hyped up....ive seen almost every Silva fight hes ever had except for his first 2 and let me tell you hes nothing special despite what UFC marketing would want you to believe.Defensivley hes good but other then that hes not much for submissions.Lutter sucks at BJJ as well dont be fooled by their shitty marketing...Marquardt is 10xs better at every aspect of the game then Lutter.

Tito hits like a wetnap dude....he couldnt even break a potato chip on his feet.

Who the hell is blast d????? shit i should put copyrights on my stuff....guy posts what i said word for word on sherdog lol.

[treelizard]

I want Kenny Florian to win, and it'll be interested to see what Bonnar's got now that he's back.

I'm sorry man, but you're dead wrong. Silva is def better with his jiu-jitsu than Marquardt. Way better.

And Lutter not being good. Are you a troll lol. And dont take me for one of the dudes who listens to all that hype. I knew Lutter before I knew he fought MMA. He's a Carlos Machado black belt. He's been to Abu Dhabi twice, amongst other competition victories. You must not know shit about jiu-jitsu.

And you can think Silva will get killed, in fact he very well may! I dare say it would be through ground and pound though, most likely. Or some lucky strikes.

[J-Luck]

Oh my God... you think he's been hyped up by UFC marketing. You much not follow MMA outside of the UFC. He's been nasty for years bro... him being champ was just a matter of time. Top notch Muay Thai, strong bjj, halfway decent boxing... what the hell. They don't lead you to believe anything but the truth.

And Tito is a decent boxer. I know nasty Muay Thai fighter and boxers in my gym that have gone to train with him. They all say his striking is underrated. Don't judge unless you know that on which you speak!

Yea......Silva jits aint special like i said before ive seen every Silva fight but the first 2 hes ever had....Lutter does suck at BJJ sure hes competed in abu dhabi but since you so smart how many times has he won a medal??? ummm NONE frank Trigg competed in Abu Dhabi for christ sake.Matt lindland Submitted Lutter.....and Trevor Prangley destroyed his ass as well.....he also got knocked out by Jorge Rivera.Lutter is TRASH in MMA....hes better at pure BJJ then Marquardt......but thAT dosen't mean shit...Lister owned Marquardt in Abu Dhabi and look at what hAPPENED IN mma.

So you've seen him fight, and still think he sucks... you obviously don't know as much about MMA as you think.

ummm nope. Lutter is fantastic at jiu-jitsu. Lemme school you on something son. There's a whole process in getting to abudhabi... the prestige there isn't for nothing. Did you think they let in garbage guys? He's only lost to the top guys. Please stop, you sound like a fool, seriously. Jorge has great Muay Thai, it's not embarassing to get knocked out by him, and getting submitted by lindland is not embarasing either... honestly, are you TRYING to prove me right???

I honestly didn't look at your sig, mostly because I don't care lol. Ok, that's fine, then I guess you have no excuse, at least before you could have claimed your comments were from ignorance... now... ehhh I don't know lol.

Dude, Tito could knock out Rashad. You're ignorant to say otherwise. Is HIGHLY LIKELY he will? No. Rashad has more power. But Tito's definitly more technical, at least at this point.

Oooooooooooooooook. Ummm I got news for ya bud, I train at an excellent boxing gym, an excellent kickboxing school, an elite jiu-jitsu school, and I wrestle with a D-1 all american... so I'm not so sure what your point is. You don't even know if your quality of training was better than that. And dude, if you're gonna train MMA, should you be in at least decent shape? I try to always stay in at least wrestling shape so I'm ready for w.e. tourney I got comin up, no matter what art it's in. Hopefully Japan helps ya out...

this is really funny......dude of course there are Abu Dhabi qualifers you really think i didnt know that.Jorge Rivera is horrble too i mean come on he got koed by leben and terry martin in like 14 seconds....not to mention he got beat by cote on TUF and got triangle armbarred by Lee Muray back at UFC 46.Losing to Lindland aint bad at all your right...however if his JIU JITSU was so FANTASTIC would he be submitted?
