A. Frank Shamrock vs Phil Baroni not often do i get to see a roid monkey get hammered by my favorite legend by fighting the roid monkey's game it was amazing
B. R.T Sokky after losing his last fight he shows up to Pride and KO's to top 5 LHW
C. Frank Shamrock it's close between him and Randy but more people doubted that Frank could comeback then Randy almost everyone thought Frank was done
D. Unfortantly it's gotta to be Diego Sanchez who would probably have been the champ by now if he had just beaten Kos but I feel bad because of the Hep C so ill let him share it with Mike Swick who would probably fought Franklin in the fight of the year if he didn't stub his toe vs Okami
E.
LW- Roger Huerta has become a huge star and he can really fight and is real exicting
WW - Matt Serra went from a joke to a champ in about 2 minutes
MW - It would have been Okami until he lost so I'll go with Frank Shamrock since he is my legend and no one else deserves it
LHW - RT Sokky - Not only did he beat Arona and Lil Nog but he gave Dana White a big FU and ripped up Frank Shamrocks knee
HW - Randy Couture - I think we all know but I have never been so exicted then when he floored Sylvia
A. What was your fight of the mid year: Frank Shamrock vs Phil Baroni (Strikeforce).
B. Breakout star of the mid year: Sokky, easily. The guy went from a complete unknown to a contender.
C. Comeback fighter of the mid year: Randy Couture. He was seen as an old, broken down, former fighter, and then shocked the world by dominating a legitimately good fighter.
D. Disappointment of the mid year: Diego Sanchez letting Koscheck tool him.
E. Top Fighter (LW,WW,MW,LHW,HW) or if you want just the overall best sometimes it's hard to pick one.
A. Parisyan and Burkman
B. Breakout star of the mid year - Gonzaga
C. Comeback fighter of the mid year - Couture
D. Disappointment of the mid year - Cro Cop
E. Top Fighter (LW,WW,MW,LHW,HW) or if you want just the overall best sometimes - Anderson Silva
Ok I know Fedor is great but all he's done this year is beat Matt Lindland so I think that while Fedor is a beast he can't get Fighter of the Midyear bro.
BJ beat Jens Pulver who looked game but it was also clear he is to small for 155
Cung Le by the end of the year might be the breakout star
Diaz Gomi was my fight of the year until it got turned into a no contest and Shamrock lit up Baroni
A. What was your fight of the mid year
B. Breakout star of the mid year
C. Comeback fighter of the mid year
D. Disappointment of the mid year
E. Top Fighter (LW,WW,MW,LHW,HW) or if you want just the overall best sometimes it's hard to pick one.
A. Randy Couture vs Tim Sylvia - Randy tooled Sylvia B. Remeau Sokoudjou - He beat 2 top 10 fighters C. Randy Couture - People just need to stop betting against him D. Mirko CroCop - He should training for a title fight by now E. HW: Randy Couture, only because Fedor has done much this year.
LHW: Quinton Jackson for beating Liddell for the 2nd time.
MW: Matt Lindland for having the balls to fight Fedor
WW: Matt Serra for doing the impossible
LW: Chris Hordecki, undefeated at 9-0 is pretty good for a 19 year old.
A. none comes to mind.

LW(Franca), WW(GSP), MW(Silva), LWH(Jackson), HW(CC)
even though GSP and CC lost I still think they are at the top Talent wise
It's pretty scary to see what a motivated Frank Shamrock can do nowadays. A one legged Frank Shamrock tooled a decent fighter in Phil Baroni. Imagine what a 2 legged, motivated Frank Shamrock could do.
Seeing Frank pick Baroni apart gave me flashbacks, but he ruined a great comeback fight with a horrible post fight interview. Frank said if he can sell ppvs and make money I'll fight him. They mentioned Lindland as a possibility and he said Matt can't draw so the fight is a no go....
A. What was your fight of the mid year:
Tim Sylvia vs.Randy Couture Seeing Captain America reclaim the heavyweight gold in his comeback fight brought a tear to my eye. You talk about a Rocky story this was it.
B. Breakout star of the mid year
Michael Bisping I know I know there are probably better fighters deserving this award but Bisping has shown me alot & He's a Brit
C. Comeback fighter of the mid year:
Captain America throws his mighty Punch Randy showed me this year that he is one of the best fighters that has ever entered the octagon & truly a nice guy
D. Disappointment of the mid year:
Mirko Cro Cop after the bulid up UFC and Dana gave this guy , He came, He Saw, He got his ass whooped with his own move.
E. Top Fighter:
There are two that come to mind Randy & Rampage but I have to give it to Rampage much as it pains me to say it
I'm not a fan of his and not only did he beat The Iceman but he killed him (Lidell was not a 100% focused in my eyes)
He also gets the nod over one of my hero's in Randy.
It's half way through 2007 and it's been quite an eventful year. Pride UFC merger. Elite Xc putting on one of th ebest shows of the year. Coutures comeback. Franks Comeback. And all of the upsets.
