I was so dissapointed Pete. I saw this great documentary on Babalo Sobral on Spike TV about his training in Brazil. He looked so great and focused, and had that Brazilian training philosophy that is really natural and appealing. I have to admit that even though Chuck is a monster I hate his punching-only style. Being a BJJ guy I want to see someone who can tire you out on your feet and then drag you to the ground and submit you. But these days it is so rare to see someone who can get through Chuck's takedown defense. He just sprawls and stuffs you into the mat as soon as you shoot in on him. I agree that Sobral lost his freak'n mind chasing Chuck with 3rd grade playground windmill punches.
The Forrest Giffin Stephan Bonner slugfests have lost their charm for me. I wish they would mix it up on the ground. Bonner is a Carlson Gracie student for God sakes! But BJ Penn is coming back to fight Matt Hughes next show and that will be a great fight. He is everything I like in a fighter, great striker and awesome ground game. I would love to see him take Matt out. Shamrock and Ortiz for free on Spike TV! Even though it is a dumb fight I will be there. I am digging this season's Ultimate Fighter on Spike TV Thursday nights. This season it is all very experienced fighters and it makes for much better fights. Nice to chat about ass-whip Yoga, the little known path to realization! Bhima would be proud. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Peter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > --- curtisdeltablues <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > Good luck dealing with "Mother F'n" Nature.
