Couture V Liddell should be interesting, but I think Couture may have something left to finish the iceman. The really interesting match will be Hughes V Gracie. I remember watching Gracie fight in the first few UFC(I'm talkin' UFC I,II etc) That was back when they fought everyone and he was always smaller but still ended up with decisive victories. If you can find very early UFC matches watch and be amazed at Gracie's ability.

Yes, but now in the newer UFC the guys cross train, at the time Gracie wanted to show off his style to the world and helped Zuffa start and organize the first ufc. So Hughes will destroy Gracie, since they all now know what Gracie brings. He started the whole thing and his family does well in Pride, but Gracie coming back is simply to get ratings.

 

Hughes wins by ref stoppage in the 2nd. Gracie knows all the submissions and will never tap, and clings too well to get knocked out.

Lindells goin to take it again....Matt Hughes is goin to knock Royce Grayce out thats not even goin to be a fight

 

How long has it been since Royce Gracie has fought in the UFC ? 10 years ? This might be like Jordan with the wizards. In early UFC's I could not believe the size and power of the fighters he was beating.

I think Gracie will be better because he has been doing nothing but perfecting Jiu Jitsu which he has Matered over 10 years ago, but the problem with him during this match will be stand up. I do not think Hughes will knock Gracie out, but I think Hughes will win by unanimous decision.

Some other good ones coming up as well:

Rich Franklin vs. David Louisaeu

Forrest Griffin vs. Tito Ortiz

Ken Shamrock vs. Tito Ortiz

BJ Penn vs. George St. Pierre

 

Yes it is, but what about

 

Paul Buentello Vs. Gilbert Aldana, I think Buentello is one good fighter that's why he was called "The Headhunter", I think he can easilly beat Aldana on UFC 57. :thumb: Are you going to watch it on PPV?

...and what about Renato Sobral Vs. Mike Van Arsdale I haven't seen them fight.

    • Best-of-three sectional series vs East Robertson at home starting Wednesday.  They put us out last year at this point.  Go Pirates!!
    • I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.
    • Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?  
    • Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
