GP99 Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 If that card happened in real life...it would be the card of the year. Even knowing it was just a game, it was awesome to watch it play out. I don't agree with the Bedford fight, I felt he won at least one or two of the rounds. Overall, great card.

Main Event: UFC Featherweight Title Frankie Edgar © vs. Erik Koch -As expected, Koch will be the first title defense for the newly minted champ. Koch has been on a roll, and earned his title shot after a beat down of Chang Sung Jung at UFC 152. Edgar on the other hand made the MMA world take notice when he ran over Jose Aldo in just over 2-minutes in Brazil. Will Edgar reign supreme, or can Koch claim gold? Thiago Silva vs. Rampage Jackson -Get your popcorn ready! When two explosive strikers like these two meet in the cage, only one thing can happen: a brutal knockout punch! Silva is looking to right the ship and get back on the track, but the former UFC chap will have something to say about that. Renan Barao vs. Raphael Assuncao -Two title contenders, Barao and Assuncao will look to bring their a-game against one another. Both men understand the turmoil that the Bantamweight division is currently in, and want to leave their mark. Who will be the next threat McDonald and Cruz? Jim Miller vs. Sean Sherk -Coming off a rough loss against Nate Diaz, the New Jersey native is looking to make a statement with a win against the experienced veteran. Sherk hasn't fought in close to three years, and his return to the cage will be a tough one with the vicious Miller awaiting him.

Both men landed their fare of share of strikes, but Yves pushed the pace and landed the more impact full strikes. 10-9 Jabouin. -Another fun round. The highlight came early on when Yves hit a beautiful push kick that floored Easton. Nothing came from it, and the two returned to their feet, swinging. Easton went for multiple takedowns, but none worked. 10-9 Jabouin. -Yves used his counter striking in this round. Almost every time Easton threw something, Jabouin had an answer for it and countered with an impressive shot. 10-9 Jabouin. Yves Jabouin def. Mike Easton via. UD Alistair Overeem vs. Ben Rothwell -The Reem was over-ambitious in this round. He went for some pretty big shots that didn't pay off, allowing Rothwell to counter. 10-9 Rothwell. -Ben dictated the pace once again. However, The Reem did a good job of picking up the pace towards the end of the round. There is little to separate the two. 10-9 Overeem. -Dull round. 10-9 Overeem. Alistair Overeem def. Ben Rothwell via. UD **After the scores are announced, the crowd is booing and chanting "You didn't win! You didn't win!"

Kampmann is on a five-fight win streak, beating the likes of Thiago Alves, Rick Story, Jake Ellenberger, Mike Pierce and Carlos Condit!

The American Kickboxing Academy member gets a tough task in Munoz, who is looking to bounce back after a tough loss to Chris Weidman. Will Rockhold live up to the hype, or will Munoz spoil the party?

The winner will likely take the next step towards the gold. Rory MacDonald vs. Josh Koscheck -"GSP Jr" is ready to make the world take notice! The 23 year old, fresh off dismantling Dong Hyun Kim, is eeger to shed the "prospect" label to turn into a contender.

Mr. Wonderful is coming off of a loss to Rashad Evans, and will do anything he can to make everyone forget about it. Will the young up-and-comer make a statement, or will Franklin continue his rebirth? Joseph Benavidez vs. Ian Mccall -McCall was originally slated to meet Demetrious Johnson again, but the UFC had a change of heart. McCall now takes on Joseph Benavidez, with the winner getting a crack at the flyweight title.

Hamman has been hitting a rough patch lately, and would love to KO Palhares. Rousimar has dropped his last two fights, and would love to walk away with Hamman's leg in hand.

Arm Triangle (4:06, Rd 1) Thiago Silva vs. Rampage Jackson -Surprisingly, not much of a stand-up war in round 1.

GP99 Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 UFC News & Notes: -A close friend/source of mine was sitting behind the UFC brass at UFC 155. He said after Overeem was announced the winner of his fight with Ben Rothwell, Joe Silva leaned over to Dana and whispered, "Gonzaga," into his ear. Now take this however you'd like, but it looks like we may have our new number one contender for the title. -The UFC is pleased to welcome new signee Bruno Santos. Santos, 25, holds a 15-0 record and won the Bellator FC middleweight title prior to signing with the UFC. His striking leaves a lot to be desired, but his ground game is world class. Expect the Brazilian to make some noise very soon. -The UFC recently approached Tim Boetsch will an offer to fight Chris Weidman. His response? "Not now." Interesting.

Penn looked GREAT in his return to 155 with his domination of Nate Diaz, while Gray is coming off of an impressive win over Clay Guida. Who will get their shot at the belt? Mike Pyle vs. Johnny Hendricks -Look what we have here! ANOTHER number one contender fight! The 37 year old Pyle has come out of no where it seems, and is on a 3-0 run right now. Hendricks has been unleashing his brutal punching power on anyone that gets in his way. Something has to give! Robert Drysdale vs. Wager Prado -The TUF Heavyweight winner drops down to his natural weight of 205 and meets the Brazilian prospect! Drysdale is world class on the ground, and will be taking on vicious striker, Prado. Expect fireworks when these two prospects clash! Shane Carwin vs. Roy Nelson -An on-again-off-again rivalry will finally happen! Carwin has been fighting more injuries then he has actual people in recent years, and is looking to string together some impressive wins.

Main Event: UFC Light Heavyweight Title Jon Jones © vs. Lyoto Machida -Take two! Jones will meet, whom he considers his toughest challenge to date, once again. We know what Bones can do, and he showed off his flashy submission skills when he locked on a d'arce to take out Hendo. Machida, meanwhile, won his fight against highly touted prospect, Alexander Gustafsson. Will we see the same outcome of their first fight, or will The Dragon rise again? Chad Mendes vs. Dennis Siver -After this fight, we will know who gets a crack at Frankie Edgar! After losing to Jose Aldo, Mendes bounced back with a big KO win over Cody McKenzie, and looks to add on to his winning ways with a victory over Siver. Since dropping to 145, the German kick boxer is enjoying a two fight win streak and would want nothing more than to get another victory and a title shot. Minotauro Nogueira vs. Stipe Miocic -An interesting matchup for the heavyweight division. Big Nog is looking to prove that he's still a force and wants to make a run at the belt. Meanwhile, Strikeforce import, Miocic, wants to make a name for himself in the UFC, and what better way than by taking out a legend? Alan Belcher vs. Brian Stann -Don't blink! This one has "exciting" written all over it as two strikers will meet toe-to-toe. Belcher is 4-0 in his past four bouts, and knows a win against Stann would put him within reach of the title. For Stann, who recently KO'd Alessio Sakara, he would love to derail the Belcher hype and take some for his own hype train. Jon Fitch vs. Jake Shields -Both men, at one point in time, could very well be ranked as the best welterweight in the world. Now both are fighting off some rust, and looking to get back to their old, winning ways. With two great grapplers, expect this one to be played out on the mat. Urijah Faber vs. Takeya Mizugaki -Why not tag on a 6th fight? These two bantamweight's will meet once more as they jockey for position in the 135 lbs ranks. The last time these two men met, Faber got the better of Mizugaki and choked him out. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that Takeya doesn't want a repeat of their first bout.

He finished the round with an RNC locked in tight, but the bell saved Munoz. 10-9 Rockhold. -What looked like it was going to be a dull round turned out to be pretty solid.

GP99 Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 He's on a hot streak, that's for sure. I'm still waiting for that one dominant performance from him, and not a come from behind victory. The welterweight division is stacked towards the top, so hopefully there's some separation soon. As for the P4P king, I guess we can't argue that Bones Jones is the man...unless he loses to Machida...then it would have to be Cain or Frankie.

The UFC heads to China with an AMAZING card! Main Event: UFC Heavyweight Title Cain Velasquez © vs. Gabriel Gonzaga -Many were wondering who would get a shot at Cain, and we have our answer! The surging Gonzaga is coming off of an emphatic KO victory over Daniel Cormier. The head kick earned him a title shot, and he's looking to continue his winning ways and shock the world by taking the belt away from Velasquez. With his first successful title defense out of the way, Cain wants to prove that he's the real deal and wants to hold the belt for a while. Anderson Silva vs. Hector Lombard -He's human after all! Anderson Silva surprised us all by losing to Chris Weidman, and his return fight isn't a tea party. The brutal Hector Lombard dismantled Rousimar Palhares, and would love to do the same to The Spider. A battle between two feared strikers, this has "fight of the year" written all over it. Nick Diaz vs. John Hathaway -He'ssss backkkkk! Everyone's (least?) favorite bad boy has returned from his suspension, and Nick Diaz is ready to take the belt ASAP. He'll have to work for it though, as John Hathaway will be standing across the cage waiting to scrap with the Gracie Black Belt. Will Diaz show us why he's one of the best in the world, or will Hathaway rain on the parade? Shogun Rua vs. Glover Teixeira -Two of the biggest names in Brazilian MMA will square off! This one will be a war, as the legendary Shogun meets the feared Glover Teixeira. Both men know how to throw hands, so we can fully expect a KO or TKO finish in this one! Wanderlei Silva vs. Francis Carmont -With this card being a land mark event, you HAVE to have one of the biggest names in the history of the sport on the card! Wanderlei returns with the scent of blood fresh, and his eyes on the prize. Meeting him in the cage will be TriStar member, Francis Carmont, who would love nothing more than to get the win over such a big name.

Main Event: UFC Middleweight Title Fight Chris Weidman © vs. Tim Boetsch -Weidman did what many considered impossible: Beat Anderson Silva. It was an impressive performance, and his first challenge will come in the form of the red-hot Barbarian, Tim Boetsch! Enjoying a six fight win streak, The Barbarian is undefeated since dropping to middleweight. This one has "war" written all over it! Co-Main Event: UFC Bantamweight Unification Bout Dominick Cruz © vs. Michael McDonald (IC) -The 135 pound king is back! Dominick Cruz is returning after a lengthy lay-off from TWO ACL surgeries! In his absence, Michael McDonald claimed the interim belt with an impressive showing against Renan Barao. McDonald has said he doesn't consider himself a champion until he beats Cruz. Now he gets his chance. Charles Oliviera vs. Diego Nunes -Two super-talented Brazilian featherweights are set to clash! Do Bronx has been on fire since dropping to 145, and has his eyes firmly on Frankie Edgar. He'll get his toughest challenge yet when he steps in with Diego 'The Gun' Nunes. George Sotiropoulos vs. Melvin Guillard -The Aussie is coming off a win over Andy Olge, but holds a 1-2 record in his last three. Meeting him in the cage is the explosive Guillard, who is coming off of a dismantling of Edson Barboza. Which fight will extend their winning ways? Michael Bisping vs. Patrick Cote -If Bisping ever needed a win in his career, it's now! The Count is 0-2 since his whooping of Mayhem Miller, and is dying to get back into his old ways. Meeting him will be the explosive striker, Patrick Cote! The hot-and-cold fighter Cote would love to score a huge KO victory over one of the biggest names in the UFC.
