I like Randy and was very impressed with his win against Tim . But it seams that every answer to his equations for him is same. And that is impassible. You cant wrestle the bigger guy like Lesner and win if he is good wrestler and getting better of you in exchanges. You have to rethink your game and every times he fails to do that. He just goes out with the same thing and if it does not work he loses. That is not salving equations...
Doliveij I like your vids and all, but I disagree with the comment you made about Hardy vs Swick title shot, cus if they do what you said "pair up the winner of Hardy vs Swick, and Johnson vs Koscheck". Then GSP will be out of fighting for some time, and as a champ he has to defend his title. Besides neither Swick, Hardy, Johnson, or Koscheck would be able to beat GSP, but like I said GSP is the champ and he needs to defend his title.
Oh yeah and by the way you wanna talk about robbery forget the Machida-Rua fight try Vera-Couture that's a robbery, what is that Couture still doing in the cage? Pesenting the most boring fighter on the planet Randy Couture, imressive record 16-10 almoust same amount of losses as wins, great...please fast forward trought the fights as you will fall fast asleep if you try watching them at normal speed...
Right doliveij, people make mistakes but hell man, no wonder your in no hurry with the review :) you messed up huge time what did you get like 1 out of 10 right damn...:) no offense man it's ok 4 me and other guys 2 make bad predictions cause ya know anything can happen in a fight, but 4 someone that calles themselfs "The MMA Analyst" :) but it's all good at list all m favorites won...keep up the good work :))))
In fact I think this is a disgrace.Looks like the only thing you need to do nowadays to win fights is to clinch your opponent against the cage and hold him there during the whole fight,throwing an ocassional elbow or something and that's it.
Vera wasn't smart enough,that's true,but he definately inflicted more damage and won the fight for me.
I think this decision is simply pathetic,but hey,that's just my opinion...
Yeah, I can see it both ways. The judges were apparently looking at octagon control rather than damage. In terms of who actually won the fight overall, you have to go with Vera because he inflicted the damage and he had been in a dominant position at the end. But round by round, one can justify the decision. He has only himself to blame. There was no need for him to let it be so close; he had the tools to win this easily, but he lacks mental toughness and (sorry to say it) intelligence.
In fact I think I think he has mediocre cardio,and would be destroyed by any K-1 elite fighter...But that has nothing to do with the Couture thing.
How the f..k can a guy with a 17-10 record be called "the legend"?.GTFO here man!!.
The only reason people is giving him so much credit is because he's 46 years old,and make no mistake,I give him credit for fighting at this age,but cut that crap about how "awesome" he is,he's awful to watch man.
im not a randy fanboy son....look randy is not the best ever but he is up there sure he has lost a few but he has lost to some bad motherfuckers liddell ,brock nog all im saying is the fight was close yes vera droped him but never stop him
Ugh, we both did terribly this time, with 5/11 each. I must admit, my picks were flat out horrible -- just 1/5 on the main card. Damn, what a shame to follow up with this after my 9/9 predictions from the Strikeforce card!
We had disagreed on four picks and split 2-2. I got Siver and Pearson, you got Brown and Couture. The standings remain unchanged, with me in the slight lead as we approach the halfway mark:
Vera (and Rogan) can complain about that decision, but the fact is he fought a stupid fight. He could have won. Standing right in front of Randy instead of sticking and moving? Following him into his guard without mounting any offense (instead of forcing him to stand back up) after he had him badly hurt in round 2? And his lack of respect post-fight was awful too.
Good for Randy, winning fights at 46 against tough guys like Vera is impressive. Vera, unlike Randyd, is not a thinking fighter.
This one really could have gone either way but Randy did a better job imposing his will on Vera and controlled the fight. Tough loss for Vera (I had him ahead), hope he comes back stronger.
Don't worry, man. Had Randy won impressively he may have gotten a title shot, but I would be shocked if they give him one from this win. If he wins his next one, though, it's a very real possibility. My bet is that they're going to give Randy the winner of Ortiz-Griffin for his next fight.
UFC 105 just goes to show you ain't an analyst your just a straight xenophobe. I enjoy your videos but your straight biased, can't doubt your passion for MMA, I agree its important too man, but I think your extremely biased, I don't know what you got against the UK but I'm glad that Bisping and Hardy made you look an idiot. Keep up the good work bro I enjoy your videos but I hate the way you show British fighters zero respect.
You know, I hate to admit it but Bisping is clearly better than most experts have been giving him credit for. I picked Kang too (though I was not as sure about the pick), but Bisping really impressed me with his jiu-jitsu defense -- and his ground and pound is lethal every time we see it. He's also one of the best at *finishing* once he has an opponent hurt. He's probably around #10 in the world at middleweight, with this win.
It'll be interesting to see what BS dana spins to make Swick or Hardy look like a viable threat to GSP. If he wants to make an intersting fight, how about Swick AND Hardy vs GSP....
I was worried when Jeremy was giving up his channel, but Karsten is my favorite previewer on youtube. The long videos are always great. Pick videos are ok, but I generally don't care too much peoples picks. I'd much rather hear they think things will play out.
good video dude. just wanted to point out that if forrest and randy both win they probably won't fight each other because they train together at xtreme couture. but i doubt they'll both win anyway.
i gonna go with randy by ud,swick vs hardy fighting a title shot,man the WW division is shallow,either one of those guy have the tools to beat gsp,not now,not ever,ok maybe some day when gsp gonna be 46 like randy,:D,but whatever i gonna go with swick by tko 1 or 2 rd,and i gonna go with kang by ud,just because bisping is an idiot.
Well thanx for puttin up the video even though u barely had time and it was noticable that u had just woken up with all the name confusions etc, dude it doesnt matter u still tons better than Ozbourne and Mcarthy and and those other fools just posting pics without analyzing crap...
Oh and I cant believe u pick against our great Swedish hope "Alexander Gustafsson"!!!
And again thanx for posting the vid and keep the good work up!!!
haha i read the note u put that said you rewatched it and saw fedor winning the 1st round. and by the way i dont mind your really long videos. no need to apologize, its all good stuff man.
By the way, I had to stop this video at about 13:30, because you're crazy if you thought Fedor lost that first round. Go back and watch the freakin fight!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The truth is that 106 card is really awful.
Who in the world is still interested in seing Couture fighting?.And the worst thing is,as the analyst says,that if Randy wins,he'll probably get an immediate tittle shot.This is not serious.
Couture - Vera,this is probably the worst main event ever...
speakin as a brit i am hoping dan hardy has another fight at least before gsp he isnt ready yet. if bisping beats Kang... is he a top 10 middleweight??
