    haha did you realise that there isnt a chance in hell of Lawler winning, he has been saying in interviews that he is going to stand with Manhoef and has no intention of taking the fight to the ground.... Nice one I think he would be be trying to rest his nuts on a great whites tongue... What the fuck is he thinking that he is going to bang with Melvin "My punch is simialr to a Shotgun Blast Manhoef

    I saw Lawler posing for a photo shoot talking about how he doesnt take people down and I was thinking this guy is a knob... Manhoef did about as good as Bonjasky as Overoid did... and he Knocked Mark Hunt out and this guy wants to bang with him!!! Robbie is going to be a lucky to to make it out of the cage under his own power, I think they need to have a stretcher at Ringside this weekend.

    would be better that was supposed to be! Laughing

    There isnt a Mw alive whos gameplan should be to stand with Manhoef... Maby Anderson or Belfort could beat him on the feet but risking it would be pointless...

    Its like saying im going to start a fight with Aoki by giving him my back!

    Lawler is a tool if he thinks he is going to bang with Melvin... I like Manhoef now, he says he knows Jacare and Lindland and anyone with a good groundgame will be his biggest worry but apparently has been working on his groundgame hard at ATT. With a decent groundgame or TD defence he could be a fore at Mw...

    Shit, just realised I forgot to name my Trump fight. I'll go with Guillard winning by KO, even though he's a nobjockey and I can't stand him.

    I notice nobody's had the cojones to call me out in the head to head?

    Payne your missus must be well pleased that you now dress only in MMA gear that you've won off random internet forum users Very Happy

    cheers
    She just can't keep up with all this extra washing.

    I didn't get the chance to challenge anybody,RedMeanie just challenged me out of the blue.

    Some people could say RedMeanie has took the cowardly way out by putting himself in a win win situation by challenging me in the 1st rd,no shame in losing to the champ and extra credit for beating me,but not me,I'm sure that didn't cross his mind Wink

    I agree with Ben, Manhoef has excellent hands, and freakish power. Possibly the P4P hardist hitter, Lawler is fucked. If Diaz can KO him, Manhoef is taking his whole head back to Holland. Its not like Lawler has a ground game to lie back on though Laughing

    If Manhoef were to somehow actually get good takedown defense and submission skills he would be extremly difficult to defeat. However, considering his ground game is absoutley appaling, I don't even think he is at the level of white belt in BJJ. If he sorts that out he will be an absolute monster.

    Do we need a trump for both cards or one for the whole round?

    Sunthunder is always last. I reckon just put him and Paddy in the Cup and if they don't get their picks in by Saturday afternoon the people they are drawn against can face each other, and if only one of them gets picks in then the other's opponents get a bye into the next round.

    Just to let people know that Al-Turk may be off the 109 card because of problems with passport, and quite a few people have a trump on that fight.

    So might want to change it, in time to pick a trump on strikeforce card tomorrow, if they so wish.....
