Demian Maia vs Nate Marquardt

Because of the lackluster Silva/Leites fight, however, Zuffa is hesitant to match Silva up with another grappler any time in the future. Yushin Okami has been placed on the sidelines yet again, and Maia will meet Nate Marquardt to determine a number one contender for the middleweight title

Okami keeps getting screwed. lame.

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

[Mr. Dead Sexy]

Because teh UFC brass know Okami will beat Silva.

[Bobby Curls]

Okami keeps getting *screwed. lame.

*scared

[Mr. Dead Sexy]

I have been on the Anderson Silva bandwagon pre-Leben. If he faces Okami, I will pick Okami pretty easily.

lmfao, mmapg bet? if i win, i become leader. if you win, i'm off the team

[Barack Lesnar]

MDS, that might've been the most retarded mma related thing you've ever posted

[Barack Lesnar]

Because teh UFC brass know Okami will beat Silva.

wow just wow

[Barack Lesnar]

[Barack Lesnar]

[bobby boucher]

Who's Okami fighting next anyway? If he coulda beat Rich then he would have had his shot way back.

dan miller

[Mr. Dead Sexy]

Miller's subs can beat anyone. And his wrestling is none too shabby either. Doesn't matter though. Okami UD.

[Mr. Dead Sexy]

Okami/Silva is at the very least, a year and a half away, if it ever happens at all. Reguardless, no. Since I could just kick you now and be done with it. Lawls.

[PA-PA-PA-PIMPOMATIC]

Awesome fight. Marquardt UD imo. His striking has looked great as well. A TKO wouldn't surprise me either.

it should be expected. i've been saying for the past year that as soon as maia fights someone with standup that he'll get tooled

[Chucxone]

Okami keeps getting screwed. lame.


hes the new machida

[Raymundo]

RIP Nate Marquardt

Because teh UFC brass know Okami will beat Silva.

i completely disagree. for starters i think Dana would LOVE to see Anderson lose - especially w. all the bitching and whining about his last fight, and ESPECIALLY to someone who his boy Rich Franklin could re-take the belt from.

but it hardly matters 'cause Anderson would defile Okami if Okami tried to fight standing, and if he got the TD then Anderson would just lock that fucking body triangle of his and ride it out until the ref stood em back up.

Okami would either get KO'd going in for the TD or (most likely) picked apart for ugly 5 rounds.
...and that's why Dana won't make it happen.

either way - i'm excited about Maia/Marquadt. that will be one helluva ground war.

[vincent_vega]

Maia via kneebar RD1.

you can't deny it though. look how bad okami is gettin' hosed. then he had kos smash that one gook's face on national tv. now he's having akiyama make his debut against alan "the zipperhead killer" belcher (even half breed gooks like kang aren't safe). christ, was his grandpa killed at pearl harbor or something?

[Ash E Larry]

Nate will win this by keeping it standing and just being awesome.

[Barack Lesnar]

nate tko 1st

: cheers :

lol, if you can't beat alan belcher, you don't belong in the ufc

i think it has more to do w. the fact that Dana sees absolutely no hope in the Japanese market (face it - they hate him) and proly doesn't see much of a constituency of asian americans filling the seats at his events either.

add to that the fact that Okami's fights tend to be fairly boring and yeah - Dana is unlikely to jump through hoops.

Nate the Great by TKO/KO

[Barack Lesnar]

Nate the Great by TKO/KO

yep

[super hot]

Maia sub second round

or

Marquart SD

[___]

Split? That's retarded. If he doesn't sub him, Maia has no chance.

[super hot]

Marquart lost to Leites and he sucks more than Maia

[___]

He lost by split decision with 2 points deducted. He 'won' the fight. So unless he gets two points deducted, he'll win.

[Barack Lesnar]

Marquart lost to Leites and he sucks more than Maia

someone didn't watch the fight

[Buckner1986]

What did they take the 2nd point for? The powerbomb?

[Barack Lesnar]

strikes to the back (side) of the head

[Albertan]

No points in a sub.

SAF's mma observation aside, that's some serious BJJ - a who's who of pwnage. he took Jacare apart, and tapped Gonzaga twice.... impressive shit.

[McLulz]

I agree, If he gets nate down, WHICH HE WILL, it'll just be like clockwork from there.

Maia is legit.

[McLulz]

And who's to say he hasn't been working his stand up like crazy? He's a world class BJJ practicioner, he knows what it takes to be succesful

[Barack Lesnar]

For how long?

2 weeks

[Barack Lesnar]

And who's to say he hasn't been working his stand up like crazy? He's a world class BJJ practicioner, he knows what it takes to be succesful

it'll look like hendo palhares, except marquardt will finish him

[Twincest]

i hafta give the edge to Nate on standup and KO strength (and TD defense) and advantage to Maia for anything on the ground. tough fight to call...

[McLulz]

it'll look like hendo palhares, except marquardt will finish him

Lol palhares isn't anywhere near the level of Maia.

I hate that little retarded brazilian,

[Barack Lesnar]

nate by being a well rounded mixed martial artist

[Barack Lesnar]

Lol palhares isn't anywhere near the level of Maia.

I hate that little retarded brazilian,

palhares would beat maia

[McLulz]

I really hate your blind nuthugging sometimes.

[Barack Lesnar]

any reasonable person would pick nate. the biggest win maia has right now is over chael sonnen

[McLulz]

He WILL beat Marquardt.

[___]

It's a very close fight. Smart money is probably on Marquardt but I haven't made my mind up on who'll I pick.

[WAR RANDLEMAN!]

Nate the Great will win

[PJ III]

it'll be a good fight

[Scorpipede]

marquardt over maia 1st rd KO/TKO

finally maia has to fight someone with some striking

that is true but he can still sub him. Nate will spend a lot of time defending subs in bad spots until Maia has no gas. Then Nate TKO.
