UFC 72 Weak Fight Card

Tomorrow night, UFC 72 will be aired live from Belfast. The event has some big shoes to fill coming on the heels of an entertaining and quality Ultimate Fight Night 10. Overall, the fight card is weak. Really, Forrest Griffin as a headliner? Sure he's a fun fighter, but the guy has lost the last 2 out of 3 fights. Even a big win tomorrow still doesn't bring him close to a title shot, espeicailly with the new Pride blood coming into the mix.

New Fights Added to UFC 73

UFC 73 - Stacked is looking to be just that, stacked with great matches. First off, we have two Titles on the line, the Middle Weight and Light Weight. With the way favorites have been picked off in recent MMA matches, don't be surprised if we see both champions fall. My pick for most like to lose the title is Sean Sherk as I feel Hermes Franca is a better all around fighter. His one weakness against Sherk (besides being taken down at will)could be his cardio. There is no quit in The Muscle Shark and rarely gasses. Besides the two title fights, there is also Tito vs. Rashad Evans, which in itself could be a main event. UFC today announced a couple more fights to the Stacked card. Press Release from the UFC: "Antonio Rodrigo ‘Minotauro’ Nogueira will take on Heath Herring. * Former world title challenger Kenny Florian returns to action to face UFC newcomer Alvin Robinson in a lightweight swing bout. * The Ultimate Fighter 1 finalist Stephan Bonnar is also back in a light heavyweight contest, as he takes on season three’s Mike Nickels. * Brazilian lightweights will fight it out for local bragging rights when Jorge Gurgel squares off against Diego Saraiva. * Welterweight veterans Chris Lytle and Drew Fickett meet at the 170-pound crossroads in a three rounder. * Unbeaten Frank Edgar hopes to carry the momentum from his big win over Tyson Griffin in February into his lightweight bout with fellow unbeaten Mark Bocek. Along with Anderson Silva vs Nathan Marquardt and Sean Sherk vs Hermes Franca, this could be the best fight card of the year, in any organization.

WEC Title on the Line Tonight 5/12

Tonight from the Joint in Las Vegas, the WEC will put on a 9 fight mixed martial arts event with the Light Heavyweight Title on the line. The World Extreme Cagefighting organization was purchased by the UFC the in January of this year and will use as a kind of "farm league" for fighters not quite UFC material...yet. The WEC Light Heavyweight Title Fight is worth looking at because the winner will likely make a move to the UFC. James Irving, who will be fighting on the UFC 70 card, was a previous WEC champion before moving up the the UFC. A little deeper look at Doug Marshall and Justin McElfresh along with my fight prediction: Doug Marshall is a brawler who turned pro as a heavyweight before dropping down to light heavyweight. He has heavy hands and of his seven fights, only one of them has gone past the 1st round. This could be a factor if they fight goes into the third round as Marshall's cardio is a bit suspect. He has fought against UFC veteran James Irving and Pride and UFC veteran Lodune Sincade, losing to Irving and beating Sicade. In his fight with Irving, Marshall showed that he has one hell of a chin. Irving landed a ton of punches and knees to the head which Marshall was able to absorb. Below is a video clip of that fight.

James Irvin vs. Doug Marshall There's not a whole lot of informatin out there about Justin McElfresh, no video clips to be found. What is known is that after losing his MMA debut, he has rattled off five wins. Also of note, he is 6' 6" which is pretty damn tall for a light heavyweight. Another thing that stands out is that he trains with Rich "Ace" Franklin. Prediction Marshall has definitely faced stiffer competition than McElfresh with a OWLR of 2.25 compared to McElfresh's .75 OWLR (OWLR is stat I came up with that helps to measure level of competition a fighter has faced. It stands for Opponents Win Loss Ratio, with the higher the number the better). He's got a great chin and I don't see McElfresh hitting any harder than Irvin, even with his reach advantage. The one thing going against Marshall is that all but one of his fights have ended in the first roung. With McElfresh training with Franklin, you have to expect he'll come into the fight with great cardio which could come into play if the fight goes past the first round. My Pick: Marshall by KO.

There might be some updates to come as we get closer to fight night and still, very much worth a look. UFC 71 Official Website

Fight Card - UFC Ultimate Fight Night 4/5/07

Lots of MMA action coming our way next week. Are you kidding me? UFC Ultimate Fight Night, the kick off of The Ultimate Fighter TV show on Spike, AND UFC 69! I wonder if people will actually get a little burnt out on all of the mixed martial arts or if it will only make demand stronger. Let's take them one at a time. Here is the official fight card for the UFC Ultimate Fight Night on April 5th. Joe "Daddy" Sevenson Vs. Melvin Guillard Justin McCully Vs. Antoni Hardonk Dokonjonosuke Mishima Vs. Kenny Florian Keita Nakamura Vs. Drew Fickett Kurt Pellegrino Vs. Sum Gi (TBD) Forrest Petz Vs. Kuniyoshi Hironaka Seth Petruzelli Vs. Wilson Gouveia Roan Carneiro Vs. Rich Clementi Naoyuki Kotani Vs. Thiago Tavares The UFC fight poll currently has Joe Stevenson and Melvin Guillard at even odds. Who do you think will win in this highly competive match-up?

Frank Mir out, Justin McCully in.

Announced today, former heavyweight champion Frank Mir will not be competing in the next Ultimate Fight night on Spike April 5th. Reports are that he is out due to injury. Although Mir is a big name fighter, I for one am glad he won't be competing and will be replaced by Justin McCully. Frank Mir has lost two of his last three fights while the relatively unknown is McCully has won his last three fights. I wonder if Mir will ever fight in octagon again. I've never been a huge fan of Mir's and I think it is time for the UFC to move on and try to bring the division back to life with newer, hungrier fighters. With the likes of Couture, CroCop, Brandon Vera, and Andre Arlovski in the Heavyweight division Frank Mir might serve best as a "gate keeper" for future up and comming fighters.

UFC 53 Heavy Hitters Predictions

Well, we are upon another Ultimate Fighting Championship event, UFC 53. There are some interesting matchups, but overall the card is pretty flat as they are missing big name match ups. I mean using Justin Eilers as part of your headline? He's a good fighter, but how many people know of him? What will the results of this UFC be....on to the predictions: Nick Diaz vs Koji Oishi -Koji will avoid the KO and will go for the ground and pound in this fight with Diaz eaking out the decision. David "The Crow" Loiseau vs Charles McCarthy -Loiseau is too experienced for McCarthy. The Crow by KO with vicious elbows. Nate Quarry vs Shonie Carter -I like Nate and he seemed like a really stand up guy on The Ultimate Fighter television show, but Shonie Carter has way too much experience. I think this could be a war with the crafty vetren Carter winning via KO. Matt Serra vs Karo Parisyan -Both of these guys are ground fighters, not stand up. Logic would say that it will be decided on the ground, but strangely sometimes these kind of match-ups end up standing the entire time. Matt Serra is one of the boringest fighters in the UFC and I cannot understand why they keep bringing him back. His last three fights have all gone to decision. Technically he's a good fighter, but if you can't KO or submit you don't belong in the UFC. I pray that Karo wins (probably a decisions as that is the kind of fight Serra brings). Karo via decision. Forrest Griffin vs Bill Mahood -I don't know much about Mahood. I'm going with Forrest on this one. He's proven what a tough fighter he is and I cannot imagine Mahood throwing him anything more than Stephen Bonner did. Griffin by KO. Paul Buentello vs Kevin Jordan -Buentello doesn't look like the fittest athlete, but he has a pretty well versed game. From what I can tell, Jordan has been a couple of C and B class fighters but never anyone A calibur. Now Buentello isn't A level, but he is on the cusp. Paul Buentello by submission. Evan Tanner vs Rich Franklin -Both fighters looks amazing last time out walking through both of their opponents. I think Franklin is better suited for light heavyweight as he looked to have trouble with Jorge Rivera when he fought middleweight. Evan Tanner is at the top of his game right now and will be out to avenge his early UFC loss to Franklin. Tanner by decision in what could be the fight of the night! Andre Arlovski vs Justin Eilers -Unless Andre stopped training about 3 months leading up to this fight, I don't think he'll have any problems. Arlovski has looked razor sharp in his last few outtings and I don't seem him slowing down. The only questions here is KO or submission? Arlovski by submission.
