NIB I believe the fight you're refering to is Brock Lesner vs Frank Trigg. Trigg hasn't fought in a while and I think Lesner will win, but when he starts facing the top guys, I think he will be beaten. Guys with frames as big as his tend to have stamina issues and get weaker as the fight goes on. Also we have to find out how he reacts when he gets punched or kicked, being a wrestler with limited mma experience you never know. I'm sure it will be entertianing to see either way.

ProfessorM, you're right Gonzaga trains in Ludlow Ma. That fight with him and Kro-Cop was sick. I thought Kro-Cops career was done the way his ankle twisted after he fell from that kick from Gonzaga. You can see it on youtube for anybody interested just type in Kro-Cop Gonzaga. ProfesserM don't know if you watch the ultimate fighter on Spike but its the best reality show ever. A bunch a guys who are going to fight each other in a house with all the booze they can drink, makes for some entertianing viewing!

Seen all the episodes. . I really like the lighter weights as they are way more active. Another guy from mass. is pretty darn good too, Ken Flo Florian. I look forward to seeing him fight for a title. I also like the middleweights too, probably the most competitive weight class. I look forward to also seeing M. Bisping getting his ass kicked when he starts fighting some good competition although he got beat but Matt Hamill and they blew the call IMO. Dan Henderson is my favorite but he is getting older. I like Rampage too. Can't stand that big mouth NY, Matt Sera or D. Sanchez.

Thats him Brock Lesner.I heard him on btls.

Amateur wrestling:
North Dakota State University's annual Bison tournament
1997-1998 winner
Collegiate
1998 Junior College National Champion
Big Ten Title (1999-2000)
1999 NCAA Division I runner-up
Ranked the #1 Heavyweight in the Big Ten (2000)
2000 NCAA Division I Champion
I think his overall record in college was 105-5...
In a try out for the Minnesota Vikings he was 330 lbs an ran a 4.70-40.

NIB the only BTLS has a show in Sirius, is that who you mean? That show is crazy, Bubba is a maniac and so is the rest of the crew.

ProfessorM I agree that Bisping lost that fight. Also the middleweight division is great I agree. Anderson Silva is fighting Dan Henderson in a couple of months, I really like Silva. He's undefeated in the UFC and a devastating striker with crazy submissions. Henderson is great too should be a good fight.

I was wrong on all of my prior predictions but one. BJ Penn did win by submission in the second round over Joe Stevenson(I mixed him up with Joe Riggs sorry bout that) and prior to that grazed his forehead with an elbow and Stevenson was bleeding like you wouldn't believe. The amount of blood left in the octagon was crazy looked like a slaughter house! Penn choked him out in the second but Stevenson showed alot of heart to keep fighting through that.
Gonzaga lost by TKO. He looked good early knocking Werdum down with leg kicks, but he faded in the second round and got pinned agianst the fence and ground and pounded out.
Another guy from Milford, Mass fought too, Jorge Rivera, and won by devastating knockout over Kendall Grove from the Ultimate Fighter. Was a great UFC almost every fight was a KO.
Also Jones beat Trinidad by UD and knocked Tito down a couple times as well. I didn't get that ppv as it will be on for free next weekend if you have HBO. IMO UFC ppv's give you more bang for your buck.
Theres also a free UFC Fight Night on wed of this coming week on Spike TV. Some good fights on the card should be very entertianing.

NIB if you have spike TV there is a free UFC on wed night this week. Also every thursday they show former UFC's on UFC unleashed. Great way to familiarize yourself with the fighters and the sport, and best of all its free. Trust me if you have a spark of interest in the UFC, watch a couple and you'll be hooked. IMO there is nothing better in the summer than watching a live UFC on Sat night until 12-1am, then going fishing till the sun comes up! Maybe my wife is right, I have issues...
