***** OFFICIAL UFC 117 thread ~ Silva/Sonnen ~ Sat. August 7th, 2010 - Oakland

[Ming Fei Hong]

i'd rather see big country vs. lesnar because he has more than one way to win, striking or jiu jitsu whereas dos santos is a striker by trade even though he's trained by the noguieras'. i think nelson puts up a credible performance against lesnar (that is if lesnar gets thru velasquez & nelson gets thru dos santos)

Lesner would punt kick Nelson out the octagon like a fat ass nerf ball. But I don't think either guy will get past their next opponent. But that's just me.

 

[Ming Fei Hong]

Chael was on the Jim Rome show and lied his ass off. He made comments about Lance Armstrong giving himself cancer by taking drugs. He went on Rome and said it wasn't him. Rome played the audio and Sonnen said it sounded like someone with a Hispanic accent.

WWWWWWWOW! This CAC used the Eddie Murphy 'Raw' "It wasn't me" defense.

 

[mallorquin]

People had been saying how Silva wasn't responding or talkin mess, he talked a lil mess.

He said people talk shit a lot, he's been fighting idiots that talk a lot before but try beating him.

There was some other shit, I forgot.

I was listening this morning. I was laughing my ass off. Dude definitely knows what he is doing. It got Rome to talk about this for over an hour and a half.

[tarriqq]

Fuck Chael Sonnen. That nigga been saying some real racist shit. Anybody that support that nigga gotta be White. He was talking down on Brazilians hard. He talked shit about the Nog brothers. White boys eating that shit up.

Anderson was CLOWNING that nigga at the press conference.

I'm more interested in Roy Nelson vs JDS. Winner gets beat on by Lesnar.

I think He has been saying some Racist stuff on the Slick too

 

[Helico-pterFunk]

Yeah, Im watching press conferance now. he even had Thiago Alves laughing.

[Megatron X]

Sonnen is a cocky son of a bitch, he talks too much. I think he might be using his trash talk as a strategy. It's possible that he is trying to throw Silva off of his game plan by making him angry; it's a mental thing.

The only disadvantage I see Silva has might be with Sonnen's wrestling. Everybody has problems with wrestlers. Wrestling is where it's at, fuck Jiu Jitsu. But I see Anderson demolishing Sonnen if Sonnen can't master his wrestling.

Roy Nelson and JDS is a fight I want to see. I don't know if RN can get by JDS. JDS got them heavy lighting hands. When you have speed in your punches with knockout power, that's a deadly combo.

But RN was able to take Kimbo's punches, take Kimbo down, and pound him.

If RN can avoid those heavy hands, he'll be good.

Lastly, I think Fitch will beat overrated Alves.

 

[Deltronz]

I'm hyped to see Sonnen get destroyed against Silva. Didnt Maia beat Sonnen?

 

[SaKem]

I'm hyped to see Sonnen get destroyed against Silva. Didnt Maia beat Sonnen?

Yea Maia beat him. By submission.

 

[gumbottoms]

I'm hyped to see Sonnen get destroyed against Silva. Didnt Maia beat Sonnen?

Same here man. Fool talking reckless.

I hope he does him like he did Forrest. I still think Forrest can be seen running.

 

[WillDen]

Sonnen gonna get beat bad .... if it was a 3 round fight he might have a chance ..... but he cant avoid Andersons stand-up for 5 rounds


Junior Dos Santos vs Roy Nelson ... JDS is too fast for Nelson
too much hand speed and underrated ground game

Alves vs Fitch - Alves by KO
Koscheck couldnt take Alves down ,Hughes couldnt take Alves down
Fitch will get KO'ed

Viva Brazil ..will be a good night for Brazilians

 

[Helico-pterFunk]

Yes - Saturday night is gonna be fun. UFCs 117 - 121 are all pretty good ... plus we've got an Ultimate Fight Night ... Shark Fights ... The Ultimate Fighter Season 12 ... some WEC ... and the list goes on (Bellator) ... next number of months are SOLID after a quieter July.

 

[therealjondoe]

sonnen going to get ko'd

 

[SaKem]

Sonnen said dana is firing anderson after this, win or lose. Is that bullshit true?

 

[therealjondoe]

nah
only if he acts crazy and dont ko dude like the last fight.
dana wants silva to go in and murder dude

 

[SaKem]

O Ok. Sonnen probably wont even make it out of the first round. He'll be lucky to get to the second.

 

[therealjondoe]

im thinking that too

 

[Cryfreeman24]

Silva Should fight sonnen like the dude in Kickboxer. Point to his knees and elbows like I'm just fuck you up with these. And after winning look at Dana Like dude in bloodsport like you are next. and

I can't believe how delusional sonnen is His coordination isn't even up to par, it's over for that cat.

Sonnen being submitted by maia^

 

[Deltronz]

Steven Seagal said it best. When being interviewed in Brazil about what Sonnen can bring to the table against Silva.

"Nothing."

 

[superfusion]

after seeing Maia vs Sonnen, there's no way that Chael can beat Silva. His standup is nowhere near Silva's standup. I don't think Sonnen will be able to do anything against Silva if he takes him down.

Yea sonnen can't do shit against silva. I'm glad he's talking a lot of shit, so more people will tune in and better understand why silva is the best fighter in the world.

 

[Naraku]

Sonnen said dana is firing anderson after this, win or lose. Is that bullshit true?

Dana said that Silva won't get fired unless he performs like Silva did against Maia. Anderson Silva is one of the bhest pound for pound fighters inh the world.

Dana's response

[Ming Fei Hong]

Forget all that taking the high road stuff. Let the beatings begin.....

Is there a video link to see this stare down and pre-fight press conference?

 

[STAR-69]

This quote was on Sherdog:

"To talk about me is easy. Try beating me," Silva replied, although when translated by Ed Soares, it sounded like the middleweight champion’s manager said "being" instead of "beating."

Sonnen made sure to help clear up any confusion.

"And by the way Soares, that was not a correct interpretation. Anderson did not just say it’s easy to talk about me, try being me; he said it’s easy to talk about me, try beating me. You’re not the only one in the room that speaks Portuguese, even though you act like you are. It’s a step harder picking up that language than it is understanding Pig Latin."

 

[Helico-pterFunk]

How did you guys like the weigh-ins today?

Is there a video link to see this stare down and pre-fight press conference?
