The Greatest Fighter in the UFC


To me I feel this fighter is one of the greatest fighters to place themselves in the octagon. The fighter I'm talking about is Anderson "The Spider" Silva. He is from Brazil and has a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Judo. Also having a yellow belt in Capoeira. Silva has been a professional since 2000 and has been a dominant force ever since. Even though he has had some unexpected losses to other competitiors he has had some amazing wins over some great competitors. Even though he has been known well when he was with Pride and other fighting organization he has never been as famous for his UFC career. Since his career after his debut fight he was offered a title shot against the great Rich Franklin and since that win he hasn't lost a fight. I feel that Anderson Silva is a great and the way he is fighting I don't think anybodyu can beat him. He has the longest record for title defense. I think Anderson Silva should move up a weight class to get a greater challenge in the UFC, but anyway you look at it i feel Anderson Silva is the greatest fighter ever.

UFC 115 : Liddell vs. Franklin


This Saturday June 12, 2010 two great experienced fighters will be going at it. The fight is between the heavy handed Chuck "Iceman" Liddell and the amazing fighter Rich "Ace" Franklin. I feel this is going to be a very even fight, but both fighters have there techniques that make them special. I think this fight can be a fight that could go the distance or it can be a fight that can be electrifying and fast. I feel that Liddell has to be careful of Franklin's ground game because I feel that Liddell has a moderate ground game. For Franklin he needs to be careful of the up top game with Liddell because Liddell's has a mean over hand right which if it connects it could be lights out. I think these fighters are at a older point in there career and trying to get the title one last time. I think if Chuck Liddell doesn't win this fight he will retire for good in the UFC. This fight determines life or death in Liddell's UFC Career. Overall this is going to be an exciting fight on Saturday and I can't wait to see the fight. In all I am definetly rooting for Liddell because I don't want to see him leave the UFC.

John Hathaway Prevails Over Diego Sanchez. What Roads Will They Take In There Careers?


In the last at UFC 114 John Hathaway beat Diego Sanchez by unanimous decision. I feel this fight determined which road these fighters will take in the UFC. This is Diego Sanchez second loss in a row and I feel Sanchez might go down on the totem pole as a top competitor in the UFC, but maybe these two losses might help him improve his fighting strategies and help him learn from his mistakes in the ring. Overall right now Diego is in the position where he could take any road in the UFC. On the other hand John Hathaway was very unexpected to win this fight against Sanchez, but this fight might show for Hathaway to have a great career in the UFC. Dana White said,"That this fight was an amazing fight and that this fight might give the Hitman a bright future." Overall I feel that Hathaway is at the top of his game and I feel after this it's going to take alot for someone to beat him. Overall these are to great competitor in the UFC and I hope they both succeed in the UFC.
