Coleman used to be something.
Please don't dump on his like that. He was brilliant.
Now he's not. The juice took it's toll.

Maybe the SF card was a bit better, but not far superior.
What kind of logic is that? They probably have like 1/20th of the revenue that the UFC has. They put on 10 events in 2009, while the UFC did 20.

Ya I don't believe the last Strikeforce card was far superior or anything, but considering they are still relatively new to these big cards, and that their roster has so little depth they have more of an excuse. This UFC card was really sub-par for a Pay Per View card. The first Strikeforce card was definitely superior, and the second was slightly better than this UFC card, and both were free.dcue wrote: ↑i beg to disagree this one.

I think Coleman did a better job against a prime Cro-cop and Fedor that Randy ever would have done against them. I think Couture is one of the most over-rated fighters out there. He's been given so many gifts through his career it's ridiculous. And now he's going to get another one for beating Vera and Coleman of all people. I am not saying Couture is a 'bad' fighter by any means and I would even consider myself a fan. It's just that the UFC gives him WAY too much. And a match like Couture/Coleman as a headlining match on a PPV event is just ridiculous.Everyone who knows MMA knew in advance that Mark Coleman would lose. I mean Mark Coleman isnt even elite in any sense. Dude has fought just about nobodies and when he did fight elite MMA fighters such as CroCop and Fedor, dude lost multiple times. Yes I know he did "well" in Pride for a certain time but he isn't elite if he can't beat the crocop/fedor's of MMA.
And these UFC homers (Rogan and his partner) were hyping this crappy main event so much. Ughh..

I think you were right the first timephomp wrote: ↑Yeah, I think it was a bit reactionary of me to say that the SF card was far superior. Because, after thinking back it was not far superior imo. Just pissed off at that UFC card and what it was.... (the main event and the fight they showed from the undercard after the mainevent left a bad, bad taste in my mouth)
That being said, entertainment value and bang for buck wise (depending on how you calculate the cost of the SF event) the StrikeForce card was better imo, maybe not far superior but certainly superior.

Sad to see him go. The dude is everything I want to be: a filipino nurse/MMA fighter. Hopefully he puts together a string of wins and gets back to the big show so that he can fulfill all that potential.

If you count anyone that's ever been on the show. Nope. Plenty of examples. Travis Lutter just happens to be the biggest one because he was a winner of a TUF season. Nover was a runner-up.

I can't see them telling Anderson he can gain 20 lbs...
Who's left in 185?
1) Sonnen, suspended because of his last fight. I doubt he's ready to go for April especially with that big gash
2) Marquardt? Doubt it, he just lost convincingly to Sonnen
3) Maia? Lost to Nate, but beat Sonnen. I think he's also suspended for a while too.
4) Anyone else left in 185 that I forgot?

UFC 109 was the biggest hype job i've seen the promotion do. the way rogan was talkin about the main event was like it was the greatest fight ever. UFC needs to trim the number of PPVs. UFC fight nights and HDNET fights are better than the crap they showed last saturday. AND THERE FREE
