Recommended Posts

[CENTER][B][COLOR="Red"][SIZE="6"]OLYMPICS 2008[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B][/CENTER] What if Mixed Martial Arts became an Olympic sport? Who would be the world’s greatest fighters? Here is an idea using TOS5.

[QUOTE=ACCBiggz;441349]Just curious as to how people like Faber and Pulver are going to make Bantamweight (135) without removing a limb.[/QUOTE] Don't wanna' take thiss off topic but Urijah has spoekn about moving down to BW to be able to fight Kid if he ever got the opportunity. He isn't a very big 145. I like the concept. I'll be reading.

Sorry to point this out... supposed to be three per country in a division, you have four USA in the Lightweight group (BJ, Huerta, Gilbert, and Curran). quick edit: Don't think I'm picking on you or anything, I'm interested in this concept!

It seems cool, but a few too many Americans in each. I know the rules are 3 each, but that gives them a huge advantage because they're the only ones that have three fighters in each weight class. I think the tournament could do without fighters such as Pulver, Curran, and Mir etc.
