Hells_Bells Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 UFC 72 to take place in Belfast, Ireland!!! According to FightNetwork.com, the Odyssey Arena in northern Ireland will host UFC 72.“… we have confirmed though various employees there that [uFC 72] be held at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast on June 16. The Odyssey currently hosts the local ice hockey team in the Belfast Giants, and in that capacity, seats a modest 10,000 spectators (that number could rise with floor seating added). For British fans, Belfast is a trip across the Irish Sea, but to put things into perspective for our American readers, the flight is similar to that of Las Vegas to Los Angeles and budget airline operations between Britain and Ireland may mean that a lot of the Brits will travel for this show.”Awesome news as im a big MMA fan!

Big upset tonight, Mirko Cro Cop got knocked out first round by Gabriel Gonzaga by head kick.That was brutal, see his leg when he landed as well MontyYeah, that was disgusting. Did you see how his toes were touching his ass when he was on the ground? Sick. I thought for sure he would have broken it, but he stood there and talked with Joe Rogan, and was able to get back to the locker room on his feet.I hate to say it, but Gonzaga is going to beat the living shit out of Couture.

oogieboogieman420 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Yeah, that Ortiz-Shamrock fight was pretty sweet. Shamrock got the shit knocked out of him. I'm not into the whole UFC thing, but a friend of mine is and he's always watching it so I'm familiar with a few of the fighters. The Liddel-Couture fights were fucking awesome.*edit*Oh yeah, if given the chance, I would like to kick Joe Rogan in the face about 20 times.... what a little bitch.I'll bet Joe Rogan would kick your ass..lol..

GET OFF AXLS BACK Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Joe Rogan looks like a little pussy but is anything but, hes a black belt in some martial art and a very experienced guy in mma disciplines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 nobody saw that coming, really good kick. Cro Cop guessed body shot, he guessed wrong.Ye noticed that, saw his arms drop as the kick was coming in. I heard rumblings that Cro Cop was gonna retire soon, like before this KO?Monty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GET OFF AXLS BACK Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Im tipping Rampage to knock Chuck out.What would be interesting is to see rampage take light heavy weight title then to see what Ortiz thinks of taking rampage on.Its gonna be sad to see Coture lose his belt in his first attempt at defending it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that will be the one loss that Lidell won't be able to avenge.And as much as it pains me to say it, I have to agree with you on the Couture fight. Gonzaga is going to tear him up.

A better fight then Rashad vs Tito would be Bisping vs Tito, now that fight would be amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
