@lbw100mph True although he was at his quickest in the 50's. In his book he mentions his pace being measured at an Australian University (i think) and he was around 91.5 mph in the late 50's.I would say at his peak he would be similar in pace to Dale Steyn with a very late outswinger-the type of ...

Wow,Chisora fought bravely and never flinched nor seemed hurt during the bout but everything else he did was tainted.He could have gained so much reputationally instead of facing a possible ban and on the road to becoming the next Ike Ibeabuchi.Haye seems obsessed with the Klitschkos and the chan...

Wlad showed amazing constraint-what a gentleman and sportsman-as for Chisora,he shouldnt be in a boxing ring or any sporting stage-he needs help.

On reflection one has to take ones hat off to both fighters,supreme fitness,dedication and skill-true mixed martial artists-sad for Nick that he lost but there will be better results for him assuming he comes back.The courage to step into the octagon at that that level is something very very few ...

@th3rn Simple,Nick was powerless to turn the tide and fight his fight via his punches and increasingly faded away in the striking phases in the last 3 rounds.

It doesnt matter what the substance was-certain compounds found in infants formula arent allowed.A local (South African) sportsman was banned for 6 months for taking sinus meds containing banned substances AFTER clearing it with his doctor as the doc hadnt updated his list of illegal substances.W...

@lookmomnohands5 Yes very true.,scary to think what another points victory for Condit would elicit.

This fight was reminiscent of a major boxing upset when an old Larry Holmes fought a prime and dangerous Ray Mercer and gave a masterly defensive effort in one of the most inspirational sporting displays ever.Taking the emotion out of Condits effort,he avoided and landed more strikes,with greater...

@fcuk4220 Yes,that was Nick's only significant moment in the fight and if that 5th round armbar attempt is sufficient to secure the final round despite being outstruck then its an academic and pyrrhic victory.Otherwise he was ineffective.

The most dangerous Diaz looked was his BJJ game in the final round and it might well serve as a lesson to him going forward-look to vary his gameplan and improve tactically.Condit executed a brilliant defensive effort,landing effective strikes and some wicked combos to body and head-he won easily.

@alfieford95 I doubt it,i think the best chance of beating Silva might be Jon Jones where the physical and wrestling aspects are factored in and maybe at a stretch Sonnen.

The UFC seems to be the most compact and effectively run sporting promotion on earth if all the puported evidence bears out-growing at 30% annually,fighter packages up 58% annually since 2005 and an endless stream of talent sourced from Wresling,boxing,kickboxing,other martial arts,amateur and ev...

The MAX OT protocol is 4-6 reps,however there are certain exercises that can go for higher rep ranges ie calves,forearms,abs.Also Jeff Willet used to do pullups for 50 reps in the fewest possible sets in numerous workouts.Paul Delia has also recommended squats in 4-6 range as most effective but h...

@Gooseman2k2 Well Vitali's ranking is debatable but i would think Wlad is too cautious overall.Would love to see someone challenge Vitali like Sanders did for a little while or a big Riddick Bowe kind of guy that is proficient at infighting.

I admire Diaz,he's gutsy,unafraid of anyone and backs ...

@MMAspiritus Good point and one that hopefully will gain traction with Mr Lesnar!

@warmaker911 I agree theres a question against Overeems chin but only Hari has stopped him and Bojansky decisioned him in a combined(mma and k1)22 bouts.Some of his opponents include Aerts,Spong,Saki and Hari (who is possibly a more feared pure striker than exists in MMA),Werdum and Lesnar.It wou...

Criticisms of Jon include cockiness,disrespecting opponents,his faraway stare,attitude problem,aloofness,losing a round to Machida and now his scream.Seems like Rashad and Rampage have done more damage to Jones with their statements than opponents in the octagon.Yet Jon has'nt made outlandish sta...

@whole27 If Brock can effect his takedown then he has a great chance.Overeem was knackered against Werdum and strangely lethargic in the standup.Also Lesnar fights at a faster pace than Werdum.Assuming Brocks healthy and well prepared,Alistair will need to finish the fight early if possible as he...

Both guys have realistic chances.I doubt Brock will be 100% physically and mentally ready and both guys have multiple ways of winning.I think Brock will battle to get Alistair on the ground quickly and will have to wear him down to effect this.Can he last long enough against the Reems fearsome st...

@dss103 You like boxing because it has Mayweather.What happens when the old guy retires in a few years time,given that he's closing in on his mid 30's now?Would you stop enjoying boxing then?

What if Mayweather does an about face and suddenly likes MMA-would you follow suit?

Interestingly the Edge when practising with Paul spoke about Maccas "big voice"-the power of his vocals is underestimated.

At the moment JDS looks set for a long reign,however,the same questions thrown at Bones Jones applies to him-he hasnt been tested or dominated.It makes for some intrigue but i see him having the advantage over Brock and being more fluid than Overeem.Can Velasquez bounce back ala GSP against Serr...

It depends-there are filter type indicators and set-ups-most filter type indicators should be reduced to a minimum (e rsi,stchastics,etc).However the more set ups one used the better as long as the set-ups are based on something other than price.Thus volatility,volume,component stocks,intermarket...

@pmack169 Yes Tysons best bet was to work the body.Punching upwards is exhausting and i think any version of Mike woud have found a mature Lennox too much to handle,given that Mike never advanced his mental game and never won a fight he was behind on possibly.Perhaps the Ruddock fight is an excep...

Its a toss up with many imponderables-how rusty is Cain and how will he takes Juniors best shot? Conversely can Junior handle Cains power as well since he also hasnt been really tagged and Cains no slouch.Jds couldnt finish Nelson nor Carwin and will have to step up another level to beat Cain.Is ...

90% of "investment pros" dont even beat the market averages.They tout a story of "investing for the long term" or "buying great companies at low prices","technicals dont work" ie they pretend to be all knowing gurus with an ability to predict markets.Even the great Buffetts returned nothing in th...

Wouldnt argue about the efficacy of his method although i wonder if elimanting the drop sets and going for heavier weights in a lower rep scheme would enhance greater srength and muscle mass?

@nxtgenairsofter His cardio was insanely intense.During off season,3 times a week-16 to 20 miuntes and in the cutting phase up to 12 cardio sessions a week,from 10 to 20 minutes.The belief was "max-ot cardio" which was to basically go flat out for 16 minutes generally.Such cardio was based on usi...

Kimbo is already a wealthy man-probably way more wealthy than all the non-elite boxers out there.Credit to him for the self promotion and the niche he has created for himself.Not many boxers in history have created excitement after 2 fights and he might be paving the way for other high profile c...

UFC formula is simple in theory (quality fighters fighting for 1 title,brand,prestige,fancentric,monopoly),dificult to enforce and brutally brlliantly executed.Boxing needs a collective effort to survive with a long term outlook.It will not happen overnight unless some new Tysonesque athlete emer...

@TheAngeltoDemon Perhaps but i would imagine it would be enormously tough for Jackson to find sparring partners able to replicate Jones's physical attributes as well as skillset.If Rampage doesnt land big early on,he will be on the receiving end of Jones repeatedly whilst trying to figure out Jon...

@Enayze I see Vitali victorius against Lewis's opponents but perhaps not in as dominating a fashion.Lewis had the edge in power,significantly longer reach and punching variety.Vitali had the edge in conditioning,chin and efficiency.Look for a peak Lennox to use the big reach advantage with the ja...

@lbZeDITZ Vitali was knocked out cold by Pele Reid(kick) in 1993 and Roosmalen in 1995 at kickboxing-additionally he was developing knee problems and couldnt handle low kicks-now add wrestling/ Bjj to the mix and how would he have fared?Similarly,a more limiting sport like boxing with hands only ...

@DestroyerAlexandros Different athletes transition better to MMA than others-Vitali Klitschko was knocked out twice at kickboxing (headkick.out cold in1993 by Reid,1995 Van Roosmalen who knocked him down with low kicks and ko'd him with a head kick) .Obviously it would be tough for him to transit...

Reportedly Vitali refused to fight this fight unless low kicks were excluded,a style of fighting Yanagisawa had never attempted before and only informed a few minutes before the fight.In 2003 Reid ko'd Vitali with a head kick and in 1995 Van Roosmalen knocked Vitali down with a low kick and ko'd ...

Reid might have been sensational at k1 or maybe MMA.One of only 2 guys,ive heard of that ko'ed Vitali Klitschko,poleaxed him unconscious with a spinning - heel kick.Vitali was also ko'ed in his last kickboxing match in 1995 by van roosmalen(kicks).However we all know what Vitali would do in a box...
