d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 UFC 118: Hey there's a championship fight you know. Nate Diaz vs. Marcus Davis: We've been waiting for Nate to take that next step in his evolution as a MMArtist for a while. He's STILL young (we've been saying that for 5 years), but I just don't get the sense that time will change him too much. On the flip side, Marcus isn't getting any younger. And while he himself has a damn good ground game, it isn't on the level of a Diaz brother. Diaz takes a beating for two rounds and triangles Marcus. Diaz, triangle, round 3. Kenny Florian vs. Gray Maynard: I simply think Florian is a class above Gray. Maynard's best bet is to, surprise, blanket to a victory. Florian is a crafty SOB, I think he'll be able to land a sweep or a big shot and wrap this baby up. Florian, RNC, round 3. Demian Maia vs. Mario Miranda: Huge fight for Miranda, and he can probably fight out of 60% of the positions he might find himself in on the ground here. Hard to tell where Maia's striking is at, he's been with Wand for a while now. Interesting fight, I'll just play it safe. Maia, Unanimous Decision. Randy Couture vs. James Toney: Insanely nervous for this fight. I'm not the biggest Couture fan in the world, but tonight I am. Fake as many shots as it takes to find what throws Toney off. Game. Couture, arm triangle, round 1. Frankie Edgar vs. BJ Penn: I think if Frankie avoids any brain farts or missteps, he has another good chance. He's got to be sharp as a tack, because BJ looks to strike lightning at all times. I just can't imagine BJ not bum rushing this dude tonight. He will find a way to corral him and land something Frankie doesn't see. BJ, KO, round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if Miranda pulls a "Silva" on him and dances behind the referee the whole 5 rounds ? Same prediction ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 (edited) Round 1, before any submission or KO occurs ? I would die with laughter if Dana ever walked up to the cage and tried to stop a fight because it was boring. He would be my favorite sports figure ever. Next to Ethan Albright.

So basically he snaps it through his legs behind him in a way that it loops back the other way over his head as he runs toward the end zone and catches his own snap for a TD ?

Not only that, he wrote the play, studied it in his own meeting, made himself run laps for falling asleep during that meeting, and has freckles.

Mickalino Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) ....and has freckles. There you have it, Ladies and Gentleman. I hope his agent takes advantage of his unique freckle trait by getting him a 90 Million Dollar Bonus for that accomplishment. Oh wait - I'm sure he's his own agent, as well.
