If I was a bettin' man I'd have to go with Matt. But I'm pullin for Royce. ANYTHING can happen in there! We've seen it time and time again.

A guy I used to train with fought his second UFC fight against Patrick Cote and won via RNC, after receiving a pretty massive concussion. When Joe Rogan went to speak to him after , his corner man(Jerin) gave El Dirte his "Thank you list" for when he is on the mic, and he shook his head and said "No I've got gum, thanks". At the after party he was asking people how he won and shit. He was right out to lunch.

Patrick rocked him hard and it looked like he was gonna lose it but he squeezed out a victory nonetheless. I hope and pray Royce can do the same.

I'd hafta agree with you Haru, Matt is the favored winner.

But I have a question!

Has anyone seen Royce fight recently? Has he been in the spotlight?? or is this his "return" fight? That may be a factor....


It's too bad you don't fight anymore, and I figure that your knees would be better if you didn't have to haul around so much lardo.... fat ass! Maybe you should try the whole raw thing, remember what it was like sprawlin with me?? had to nick name me "Gumby"

SPEAKING of which, we still going halfers on the show?

Royce has only had 5 'pro' fights in the last 11 years.

12/31/03 - Fought Hidehiko Yoshida to a draw in PRIDE
5/1/2000 - Lost to Kazushi Sakuraba by TKO via corner stoppage in PRIDE
1/30/2000 - Beat Nobuhiko Takada by decision in PRIDE

Prior to that his last fight was the one against Shamrock in UFC in 95.
Total record of 13-2-3

the big fight is hughes vs. gracie, but anyone seen the rest of the card yet? diego "nightmare" sanchez will be fighting the same night. so will "quick" mike swick, brandon "the truth" vera, and jeremy horn. all in all sounds like a great pay per view. looking forward to next week.

This is the full card for UFC 60

-Matt Hughes vs. Royce Gracie (non-title)
-Brandon Vera vs. Assuerio Silva
-Mike Swick vs. Joe Riggs
-Dean Lister vs. Alessio Sakara
-Diego Sanchez vs. John Alessio
-Melvin Guillard vs. Rick Davis
-Fabianbo Scherner vs. Gabriel Gonzaga
-Spencer Fisher vs. Leonard Garcia


I wonder why they've got Melvin on there. He was the first one eliminated from TUF 2 and now he's on a ppv event.

Haru's picks:

Hughes
Silva
Riggs
Lister
Sanchez
Davis(Mir's boy still?)
Gonzanga
Fisher
Horn

we should have friendly competitions and whoever predicts the most wins per event, wins that one and gets a point. Then we can keep track of points as the events go on.

What do you guys think?

and he also lost to josh "the dentist" neer since then. though melvin cut him open really bad with an elbow, neer managed to pull off a submission before the docs were able to stop the fight. great comeback for neer.

well they probably wont televise melvin's fight. i believe the ppv's first fight is going to be sanchez vs. alessio. maybe if they have time they may show after the main event. depending on how it goes.

so the hughes/gracie fight is a non title fight. so even if gracie wins he will not get the belt. is this a one off fight for gracie?

yeah, it's just an exhibition. Gracie isn't under contract with the UFC.

So if its a non title fight that means next for the welterweight belt it will be Matt Hughes VS George St. Pierre. I hope George gets his revenge!!

Yup! GSP will hopefully get the "W" this time around. If I remember correctly , didn't he pretty much control the majority of the fight untill Matt caught him with that armbar?

yea matt got a lucky arm bar off. I was pissed.
I loved it when GSP caught matt with that spinning back kick and knocked him flying!

lol
I jumped outta my seat when that happened. I'm fairly certain he will be the next welterweight champ.

well according to this article it will be Hughes vs. GSP in september.

in the articel hughes says he would rather fight bj penn, to avenge his loss to penn in 2004. but GSP has already beaten penn, so he is next in line.

I dont want to sound ignorant but I was watching the "Best of" on spike once and saw a guy named Josh Burkett or something, he is bald, small amount of hair under his bottom lip, he was in one a the Ultimate figher shows, I dont know if it was 1 or 2. anways I saw him fight, and he flew through the air and front choke this guy. really fast , anyway he was calling out diego and stevenson, I would love to see that fight. Josh (that part of the name I am sure of) was hurt and could not compete effectively on the Ultimate fighter (I think that he was cut), so this was the first time I had seen him fight at full capacity, wow
