Silva is fighting soon...HE is going against Antonio Menedes on may 24th...I'm guessing he should dominate.

Who is the most underrated fighter in the UFC?

My vote:
Manvel Gambuyran
Matt Hamel

Hamel for sure...Gambuyran has those shoulder issues all the time and it stops him from fighting to his full potential, so I think he is pegged correctly.

Hamel was cheated out of a win over Bisbing in Liverpool....and Bispbing had to know it. All around great fighter, good grappling, strong submissions, and decent hands. The fact he is able to fight with very little imput from his corner during the fight just goes to show how talented the fighter actually is.

Oh...yeah I can, but only because I have relatives from Ireland...just listen to the common words...usually he just thanks his fans and says he should have won.
I think even he was surprised when they announced his name against Hamel.

Hughes is not overrated...he is a great fighter who cannot match GSP. At one time he was one of the best fighters in the UFC...The evolution of the UFC has made Hughes a non factor.

Phil Baroni is no good.

Thus...him being over rated now. I didn't say he was always over rated. Now he is outclassed and gets fights based on his name alone...

Phil is good...anyone who dominates their weight class in a stacked PRIDE division...is pretty good

He was one of the top in his weight class. Pride is defunct now, so I don't know who he is fighting for.

I will be tuned in...thanks for the reminder!

http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=eventDetail.fightCard&eid=1072

A couple good fights on the card. I just want to see that friggin retard Clay Guida get his head bashed in. He reminds of the Geico cavemen.

It was a pretty good ifc...ALthough i thought the ref stole the fight from Karo Parysian(sp)...He stoped the fight way to quick. Karo did get caught with a knee and buckled but when he was on his back he defended himself...Alves punches were hitting his shoulders and arms when it was called.

KenFlo is a beast. He cannot touch Penn but he is pretty good. He is in the same situation as Rich Franklin...Both are really good but cant beat the best.

Did anyone notice how winded fighters were getting from the altitude?

I agree about Gudia...he can fight and does beat people down. Hureta seems a bit overrated to me.

GSP is the man. What an ASS KICKING he landed on Serra. I always though Serra got very lucky in their first fight. Maybe St. Pierre was hung over that day. Anyways, the champ is back.

BJ is as dominant at GSP. There is talk that BJ is going to fight GSP. Its not totally fair because of weight but it would be a good fight. I saw BJ almost beat GSP when he was fat and out of shape. Bj broke his nose in round 1 and lost in a decision. He ended up getting gassed...

Ugh... I saw the Kimbo fight and it didn't look that good for the guy. And now all of this conspiracy theory about it is starting to swirl as well. Internet sensation to reality bust in one night.

Anybody watch Rampage/Griffin? Jackson completely underestimated him. Griffin deserved the win. He has gotten better and better over the past 4 years. He is tough SOB. Good for him. I hope he keeps the title for a little while.

That is, until my boy Thiago Silva gets a crack at him. His title shot is due.

Anyways, Rampage lost with class. He was humble in his interview afterwards.

I heard Coture is getting paid like $3 million to fight Brock Lesnor. That will be the biggest PPV UFC ever..no question.
