Ultimate Finale is on NOW!!

[freshwaterz]

I thought Alexander seemed like he might have been a little gun shy because of his previous KO losses or he could have overtrained maybe.Whatever the case was,he just did'nt look like the Houston of old,he was gassed and I was suprised he could continue after the first slam by Slice.

houstons problem was simply being scared. he ran from kimbo the whole first round.

like said above, i jumped out of my couch screaming when kimbo did that killer slam

i gotta agree with most, i hate that fat a** won. that guy is so full of himself. i cant wait till someone head kicks his teeth out.

Ehh... Just wait until Lesnar gets better. No head kicks needed. Just 285 pounds of super-human trying to slam you to the ground and rip your head off.


After he beats Carwin that is.

he wasn't scared. That was his game plan and although boring, it was the right thing to do IMO. He was wearing Kimbo down with the leg kicks, which was his plan, but he ran out of gas and couldn't finish it. I don't know if it was poor conditioning or the slam that made him gas so early.

The Kimbo fight was weak. Houston looked like he respected Kimbos power and wanted to wear him down and kick the previously injured leg. He executed his plan very well but it sucked to watch it.
I am a big Kimbo fan but dont see a future for him in UFC... no ground game and his stand up is nothing like YouTube. He respects the ART of UFC and is timid to do what he does.

I dont like Jelly-Belly but you have to give it up to him... he uses his fighting style very well. Puts his Naval on you and then the Whooper-Fists supersize your face. I just dont like that style and especially his stupid comments

I am curious to know if Jelly-Belly actually hits hard with the Fists-of-McFury or if its Brandon that has no Jaw (He was hit in the soft spot too thou)??

I do have to say I am not happy about next Seasons Coaches... Tito Ortiz Vs. Chuck L. I say Tito will KO Iceman in the 1st round

wow the kimbo vs alexandar fight show's that kimbo is not ready for the UFC yet. Roy nelson looked great, my boy frankie edgar looked good too.

Is it just me or does anyone else hate when fights get ended b/c someone threw an illegal strike and the other fighter can't contiue and they win.

case in point the hamill fight. He got hit with four 12 to 6 elbow strikes that were all illegal the ref stops the fight and b/c hammil can't fight anymore he loses.

Now I know that hammil was losing that fight big time anyway but you don't know if it was those last strikes that brought him down and if they were the other fighter should lose b/c they did something illegal. If they let guys win with illegal blows then If I fought I would be kicking the hell out of guy son the ground in the face. I just don't see why they let them win. there was a huetra fight a long time ago that he won b/c he threw a knee to a downed persons head and the guy couldn't continue and he won also. but IMO he wasn't winning the fight before it happened

dude, im a fighter myself. there are certain things you just cant do. kneeing or kicking a downed fighter in the head, blows to the back of the head, 12-6 elbows, nut shots. it doesnt matter if hammel was winning or losing. the other fighter was endangering his life with a strike that could cause brain damage and or death. the commision takes that very seriously for the safety of the fighters. every fighter knows these rules. so when he looked up all suprised, the ref should have kicked him in the face.
they made the right call.

No surprise that Roy won, but I feel like it's just a waste of $ and more importantly, a waste of an opportunity. You can clearly see from Roy's physical make-up, that he doesn't have what it takes to be an elite fighter. Can he be good? Sure. No doubt he can, he has a lot of talent, but to be elite you have to be so disciplined, and Roy is the opposite of that. It's great that he went out and did what he had to do, and won, I don't blame him, I blame Dana and the UFC brass for wasting their, and our time.

Frankie Edgar is really good. I would guess he'll get a shot at the winner of Florian/Guida, or the loser of Penn/Sanchez. Frankie is one of those guys who could be championship material if he gets the chance.

Jones was very impressive again, but Hamill seemed out of shape. I think Jones is better anyway, but I expected more from Hamill. To me it looked like Jones was trying to pull those elbows in twords his body, and just didn't do a good job at it. The ref was kind of stuck in the sense that he stood Jones up for the illegal blows, but he didn't expect Hamill to say he couldn't continue. Once that happened, they had to DQ Jones. Probably won't hurt him moving forward though.

Kimbo did a good job, but Houston embarrassed himself. What a stupid way to go into a fight. I mean, if his strategy worked exactly like it should have, and going into the third he was down two rounds. What a joke.

Now comes the time where we can see how good any of these TUF guys are. I don't mean by the fights they get, but about how many of them can cut weight. All, and I mean all, of these guys should be at light heavyweight except Marcus and the Wes's. Specifically the guys who could really benefit are McSweeny and Shaub (and Kimbo of course), if they can drop, they might have a shot.

did you read my post correct You make it sound like I like that he hit him illegally and won. that's not right at All I think that b/c the fighters know what's right and what's wrong if they do these acts they should lose. and if that was the case then hammil wins not jones.

you were the one who is mistaken. matt hamil won the fight. jones lost by disqualification.

in your post that i quoted, i thought you were saying hamil should have lost. i was just speaking my mind on the illegal strikes. i've been punched in the back of the head during the fight and didnt feel right for a month. so i feel very strongly about illegal strikes.

but yeah, hammel won.
