Antonio Silva Says “There’s No Way” Brock Lesnar is Best Heavyweight

One of the great things about MMA is the persistent and often heated debate, about ‘who is the man’ in each weight division. Of course, this discussion often spirals into the ever popular ‘you can’t be the best if you’re not in the UFC’, which often ends with insults and expletives flying (several staffers here at Fix […]

One of the great things about MMA is the persistent and often heated debate, about ‘who is the man’ in each weight division. Of course, this discussion often spirals into the ever popular ‘you can’t be the best if you’re not in the UFC’, which often ends with insults and expletives flying (several staffers here at Fix have wept uncontrollably as a result)

Well, following Fedor Emelianenko’s recent ‘this can’t be happening’ loss to Fabricio Werdum, the fighter’s critics immediately saw this as further evidence that his standing as the world’s best heavyweight, had long been inflated. As a result, there should be no doubt Brock Lesnar is #1 right? Well, according to Antonio Silva (a guy that knows a thing or two about beating large and hihgly skilled people up), the answer is no effen way. Speaking to Tatame magazine, Silva was quoted saying:

“I don’t believe that Brock Lesnar deserves to be considered the number one of the ranking because I think that, if Werdum beat the number one, the right thing would be for him to become the number one. How can you beat the number one and be considered number two? I think this ranking is kind of crazy sometimes… There’s no way of a guy fighting only six times and becoming the number one of the ranking. And what about the history Fedor made in MMA? Just because of one loss, now he’s number three and a guy with only six fights on his professional record is the number one. That’s crazy, man.”

We’ll leave it up to someone else to argue with a man nicknamed “Bigfoot.”

Dana White Talks About UFC 120 Matches.

UFC president Dana White recently did an interview with Telegraph.co.uk where he defended UFC 120 and the matches that make up the card. With the fight going to the O2 Arena, London, on October 16 and featuring British fighter Michael Bisping as he takes on Yoshihiro Akiyama many British fans have been questioning the […]

For those of you at work who can’t access the video, or those who just don’t want to, here’s a little of what was said:

“You can look down the list and say whatever you want but we are going to bring a bad*** show that you are going to love to be at live and the fights are going to kick a** and you are going to leave the arena or turn off your tv that night and go ‘I didn’t just waste my Saturday night’…Yeah, we do showcase English talent when we are there in England, but we do it here too. We have Brits fighting over here, too. We have just had a card in Oakland [UFC 117] with five Brazilians against five Americans…How can anyone b**** with Akiyama fighting. Akiyama-Leben [a few weeks ago] is one of the best fights I have ever seen in my life. And Every time Akiyama comes, he brings it, man. This guy comes to fight…And Bisping…Listen, whether you don’t like Bisping, or you love Bisping – first of all the first thing I love about Michael Bisping, is that Michael Bisping wants to be the best. He wants to win a title so bad. Michael Bisping is not afraid to come out and bang with you. He’ll go toe-to-toe with you, he’ll go to the ground, and that’s going to be a fun fight too…And at the end of the day, man, this guy is going to come out and give it all he’s got and Akiyama is a beast. I love that fight.”

UFC 118 Betting Odds (And No Respect for Frankie Edgar)

The only people close to being as upset as Chael Sonnen and his camp were after getting unexpectedly submitted by Anderson Silva in the fifth round would be the people who wagered their mortgage on Chael Sonnen pulling off the upset…only to see their +350 unexpectedly snatched from them with two minutes remaining. Ouch.
Anyway, we’re just […]

The only people close to being as upset as Chael Sonnen and his camp were after getting unexpectedly submitted by Anderson Silva in the fifth round would be the people who wagered their mortgage on Chael Sonnen pulling off the upset…only to see their +350 unexpectedly snatched from them with two minutes remaining. Ouch.

Anyway, we’re just a couple of weeks away from the next card, so time to get over it, move on, and take a look at UFC 118 betting odds.

:: Frankie Edgar is the UFC lightweight champion. He pretty much (and shockingly) dominated B.J. Penn in Abu Dhabi. Oddsmakers don’t care. Edgar is a huge dog across the board, listed at +250. Penn is listed from -317 to -350. Now, of course, we think Penn is the more talented fighter, if not the greatest lightweight of all time. But facts are facts, Edgar won the first match, and maybe his style is one that just gives Penn fits. We think Penn wins this fight, but huge value in taking Edgar now at +250. Grab him at BetUS here.

:: Similarly, in the UFC, we’ve learned that nobody really deserves to be a -700ish favorite. But Randy Couture is listed as just that (-600 to -700) against James Toney. Like with Penn, we think Couture wins this one. But we also know Toney is more than capable of connecting a shot that would mean lights out for Couture. We LOVE the value in this one, so grab Toney at +465 here.

Junior dos Santos Doesn’t Think Sonnen Offers Silva “Much Danger”

In our unsolicited opinion only a fool can’t be excited about this weekend’s UFC 117; of course thanks in part to the entertaining and or infuriating antics of Chael Sonnen, the whole MMA world is chomping at the bit to see how he fairs against Anderson Silva.

In our unsolicited opinion only a fool can’t be excited about this weekend’s UFC 117; of course thanks in part to the entertaining and or infuriating antics of Chael Sonnen, the whole MMA world is chomping at the bit to see how he fairs against Anderson Silva. Not only is the bout compelling due to Sonnen’s pre-fight trash talking, people are anxious to see how Silva deals with the punishing wrestler’s aggressive style. Will Sonnen be forced to eat a sheeat load of humble pie come night’s end? Or will Silva’s much hullaballooed reign as P4P champ come to a halt?

Well, according to Junior dos Santos, (who so happens to be fighting Roy Nelson Saturday which should also be sick), apparently he’s not too worried about his Brazilian countryman losing to Sonnen. Speaking to Tatame Magazine recently, here is some of what dos Santos had to say, when asked for his thoughts on the UFC 117 main event.

“A bout is a bout, you can never know what will happen, but of course that Anderson is the favorite. Sonnen doesn’t offer much danger to Anderson, because Anderson has more than everybody’s expectation of a win, he’s also a very smart guy and has been proving it on the last years on which he’s been fighting on UFC. It’ll be another great result for him, I believe he’ll keep himself as the champion and that this title will remain here in Brazil….”

Yes, yes, naturally there’s some bias there; Junior goes on to say that he thinks Silva can win by either KO or submission. We shall see “Cigano,” we shall see… (cue dramatic music). Anyone care to wager?

Tito Ortiz Talks About His Training And Feeling Really Good.

UFC light heavyweight fighter Tito Ortiz sounds quite sincere when he says that he’s ready to focus on fighting and forgo partying so that the UFC brass, fans and family can have the best fights for the next five years. Ortiz has a big challenge ahead in the form of Matt Hamill as the two will meet at UFC 121 which will take place on October 23 from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Ortiz last fought on UFC 106 where he lost to Forrest Griffin, but if Ortiz is actually healthy this could be a very interesting fight.
