Hey, remember when Mark Hunt couldn't be KO'ed? Those were fun times. The times where Nogueira didn't get finished.

When does Silva actually try to take anyone down? Only time I can remember is the Rivera fight and that takedown was smooth.

If this was strictly stand up, then Manhoef all day long, but if Silva does get this down, then it's by anything he wants.

Yes this is the type of fighter I've been waiting for Silva to fight and also they type of fighter Silva probably wants to fight. Someone that can give him problems standing and test his skills cause right now there is no one in the UFC on Silva's level in the striking department.

Silva's taken down Chonan and I remember him trying to take both Murray and Curtis Stout down.

Did you think Hunt sucked at kickboxing, too?
Speaking of Mirko, I'd be down for Hunt vs Mirko 3. Sure, they have seen better days, but it'd be interesting. I loved their first 2 meetings (With their second one being a top 10 Pride fight).

I've never really watched kickboxing, but Hunt was never good at mma. Cro Cop got robbed in the fight with Hunt. He should have gotten the decision easily. As for Crocop Hunt III, they've only fought once. People have always like Hunt because he tries to bang with his opponents, but I have always contended that in mma he's a lower tier fighter.

You phail pretty hard. What Damone is referring to is that CC and Hunt have fought once in K-1 and once in mma therefore their next fight will be their third, not that hard.

However he only made a comment in this board, once I did. He has done this before on multiple occasions. He doesn't like me, so whenever he sees a post of mine he tries to flame on it.

Of course I posted because what you posted was wrong (again). What if we had some innocent little kid reading your post and thought it was fact and then he was soooooo excited that he ran around telling his friends that but then one of his friends knew what I did and corrected him and made him look stupid, I'd feel a little guilty.

That's not trolling kiddo. Did you forget this is a discussion board, or is this still the rockybalboa blog?
