[Rillo]

Uh oh tyrant he's taking our cookies! I had 3 and he took them... He took one of yours too.

[grymtyrant]

oh no! One was chocolate chip too!

Ok... You're not an expert you just have opinions. What you said about the vasoline doesn't make it any better. There was clearly a container of vasoline in his trainers hand and he was rubbing it on GSP's back and shoulders. I don't really care what you call it, it's against the rules and gives and unfair advantage.

Silva is retiring when he is 35 which is in 2010. He doesn't want a new deal he's already the middleweight champion and one of the most dominant fighters I've seen in a while he makes plenty of money and trust me Dana wants him around as long as possible.

GSP is the man I'll give you that... but I just don't think he could take BJ without the vasoline.

I feel the same way you do about those select fights... Brian Stann is a bad dude though. He's the all american dude that has the face of a shark.

Looks like a good one. I'll be lookin out for Rampage.

[Rillo]

I say he dominates Keith Jardine. I'm looking forward to Gonzaga since he's been pretty good lately and I kinda like Matt Hamil from the ultimate fighter but he hasn't been too lucky lately.

[bocaccio]

I don't have time to pay attention and recognize all the names as you do. But I recognize gonzaga,jardine, and jackson. I'm sure they'll all be good to watch.

[Rillo]

For sure. Jackson vs. Jardine should be epic. They're stand up fighters and ground and pound artists. Jackson has a mean slam and Jardine has the most unusual stance and style. I see it staying on the feet for most of the match and Jackson winning via ground and pound in the 2nd round.

Gonzaga is going to dog walk the other guy. I don't even know who he is. KO/TKO in the 1st round.

The rest are up in the air. I'm not sure if I can give people links to watch a live stream though.

[bocaccio]
