Ufc fights rescheduled

[BigDawg]

TweetAppears some main events will have to be shuffled. Machida will not be fighting Shogun again as planned in January. He needs surgery on his hand and even if he didn't, he was medicaly suspended for 60 days after the fight which would have made a rematch in less than 90 days hard to train for. Also... The Lesnar/Carwin fight main event for ufc 106 has been pushed back to ufc 108 as Lesnar claims he was unable to train for almost 4 weeks due to a severe flu... But he WAS feeling okay enough to attend the recent Vikings/Panthers game during the peak of his supposed flu. Joe Dilva wil be scrambling to get another big name main event.

TweetTito and Forrest got moved to the main event now that the Lesnar/Carwin fight is off. I think they will be alright thought. Machida and Shogun wouldn't have happened that quickly anyway.

he was medicaly suspended for 60 days

Is this mandatory or did he get hurt with those leg kicks.

[tn94z]

TweetIt's not mandatory because many fighters don't get suspended and some just get 30 days. Most of the time, it is because there is an injury and that give them these days to go to the doctors and get a final opinion. Machida has said that the leg kicks didn't bother him that much except the inside of one of his legs got sore. From what I read, it was from the laceration on his lip.

Tweethe took a ton of kicks to the legs and body.... he had to feel terrible the next morning.

Tweetmaybe his hand was hurt during the fight since he didn't do shit in the cage. Faber broke both hands vs Brown and still managed to throw elbows and take the fight to his opponent. MAybe Machida was shell shocked due to the injury.

I bet he did!! He said during the fight the only ones he felt were the ones to the inside leg. He said the others were just routine kicks.

Throwing elbows against Mike Brown and trying to throw elbows against a Muay Thai specialist are two totally different things! If Machida would have tried to clinch and throw elbows with Shogun, he would have gotten destroyed.

Yeah, I am pretty confident that Faber can beat Brown. I mean the first time he got caught throwing a crazy elbow and the rematch he broke his hands.

[badasz32]

TweetI think mike brow is talented but its hard not to like faber.

same with brian bowls ... him beating torres was a fluke.

LOL CMON FABER IS 0-2 WITH BROWN. IF HE GOT CAUGHT FABER PUT HIMSELF IN THAT POSITION.AND LETS REALLY THINK ABOUT HIS HANDS BROKE. IF THEY WHERE THAT BAD HE WOULDNT OF BEEN ABLE TO FINISH THE FIGHT.AND LETS THINK HOW HE BROKE THEM. MAYBE ON BROWNS FACE THAT MEANS BROWN CAN TAKE A PUNCH MAYBE. SOME FIGHTERS JUST CANT BEAT SOME PEOPLE.HERE IS THE FIGHT MIKE BROWN JUST MAN HANDLED FABER. PUSHED HIM DOWN WITH EASE AND BEFORE FABER THREW THAT ELBOW MIKE CONNECTED WITH A SHOT TO THE FACE THEN FABER TRIED TO ELBOW MIKE AND MIKE BLASTED HIM. I DIDNT SEE NO FLUKE ELBOW THROWN. FABER THREW THAT ELBOW AND MIKE MOVED AWAY AND CONNECTED.

He did put himself in that position by throwing a spinning back elbow...who throws those? His hands were broken, he had to have surgery. Fighters finish fights with broken hands all of the time. DId you notice that after he broke them, he threw elbows only? Of course he can take a punch, that is obvious. He pushed him around because he is stronger. I agree with everything you said about the fights....I just think that a 100% healthy Faber can beat Mike Brown.

Mir manhandled Nog their first fight....do you think that Mir can do that again?

TweetI'm not saying that Brown is not good...I like him and think he is very good. I just think that Faber can beat him

Yes and yes. Still doesn't matter. Some nights fighters just don't perform. Had Faber not broken his hands, I think he would have won the second fight. It was going totally different than the first.

Okay, that was a bad comparison. Being mandhandled means nothing in MMA. Look at any fight that had one guy getting his ass handed to him, and then he pulls out the win. That is the nature of the beast. We will see though, Faber will work his way up to a rematch very quickly and Brown will have no choice but to fight him again.

I mean hell, if Brown was at that much of an advantage, why couldn't he finish Faber in their second fight when Faber couldn't even punch after the first round?
