This should be a fight that builds Veras confidence. Patt isn't very good so if it goes passed the first or second round, Vera should be dropped. Or at the very least, if he struggles during that time, he should be dropped. He's getting alot of chances in the UFC. He better make good use of them.
Vera quite litterally has to to knock Patt's head OFF to get me back on his balls. even tho i never really did anything else than to dangle from his pubes .
But yeah, Vera did indeed bust. It was sad to see him go from KO'ing a lazy Frank Mir to busting so bad. I haven't seen his entire fight with Jardine yetdunno but I can say it's been a while since I've seen a strong Brandon Vera.
If Vera wants to regain the respect of many MMA fans, he needs to have a very impactful win over Patts. Then after this match, give him another opponent, probably Sokoudju who just came off a loss. If he bags that, I guess he's back on track. Hopefully he improves his gas tank. Come on guys, let's give him a chance. If he gets owned by Patts, he better not fight again, ever.
Wow guys calm down. Nobody even remotely said this was the main event. A lot of complaints for nothing so far. At least wait till the main card is officially announced to whine. If you don't like it, don't want it at all.....no matter what the card is like. OR just come on here and sound like old nags bitching about everything:confused02::confused05:
I personally hope it will be a decent card since I'm only around 2 hours from Columbus. Can't wait till things are announced and tickets are available!
Now I caught the end of the Vera hype I think or may have bought into when I wathced UFC unleashed every night to find out more about the UFC but I checked his wiki and his first 3 or 4 UFC fights were against nobodies.
Perhaps he was just hyped and he is no longer The Truth, just The Hype. If Patt wins here he could be pushed up in the UFC's estimation.
Jon Fitch gets demoted to the prelims after losing to GSP, and yet Vera can suck balls on a consistant basis and still hang aroung the PPV, there is no god
This needs to be updated badly, Carwin Vs Gonzaga is the main event (at the moment). Liddell has expressed his interest to fight in March/April so Id stay tuned, especially once Jan-17th has come and gone.
Ya I would like to see if Liddell has anything better of a game plan then usual. He needs to, because these guys are on to his dependence of a knock out. It just isn't working anymore. Hopefully he trains in other areas more.
As for the Columbus fight card. I have never been to a live UFC, so I am hoping to finally get to go, or wait till I visit Vegas in or around June/or July.
Unless he has done some DRASTIC improvement (and if I'm not mistaken he has not fought since UFC 88), Brandon will still take this. I think Patt isn't all that good against strikers.
This having been said - IS THIS SERIOUSLY THE MAIN CARD?!
