    pull guard, like always. he feels comfortable in the guard. the only thing i want to know are there going to be special rules in this match, like all the other matches, that royce been involved in?

    i think this fight is going to be a snooze fest, royce will tired hughes out and may submit him, hughes will just lay on top of him. hopefully it will be an exciting fight, but i doubt it.

    I really really want Royce to win. I can't stand Matt Hughes and his Aw Sucks crud.

    I doubt this fight will be very entertaining to watch. A good wrestler attempting to strike which usually, in Hughes' instance, doesn't go too well, and another terrible stand up fighter that is limited in wrestling but can submit from his back and likes to be there. I am sorry but this will either be a snore fest of a ground fight, considering Hughes will not gas during the five rounds, and Royce will be patient looking for openings but, with the rules the way they are, any stalling on the ground will lead to being stood right back up.

    I like the preview/commercial of their fight on spike, "he thinks hes gonna beat me up, do this and that" lol Royce is so humble reminds me of one of those old masters.

    Interviewer: FMatt is a little offended that you actually think you can fight him inside the Octagon and walk away the winner.

    Royce: Matt is offended? That does not make any sense. He is a fighter right, and a fight takes two people, so what is he offended about? If anything, Matt should thank me for even having a job and being able to fight. For him to be offended for something my family created, I don't understand the disrespect. If he has problems with people fighting him, maybe he should look into a different profession. I was fighting in the UFC before he even knew what the UFC was, so I have no idea what he is offended about, I also do not care.

    i think he is referring how the gracies introduced BJJ and MMA to the US. and a new evolution in fighting they proved that not everyone was well rounded back then. they didnt invent MMA, since its been around in Brazil long before the UFC, they just market it here and look at it now, you have everyone trying to be an MMA fighter. i think thats what he meant.

    Maybe he meant that literally his family created UFC?

    Anyways, I hope matt doesnt lose, but I would like to see Royce win.

    GSP by decision.

    strike!

    i see where youre coming from and what you are trying to do. ok i ll play right now since work is pretty slow. no they dont want to boxers or kickboxers, do you have studies that it says so? look outside of the US MMA is huge, bigger than boxing, when they hold events they hold it in soccer and baseball stadiums. the fighters are treated like heroes. unlike boxing.

    they want to be MMA'ers. look at them they are cross training. look at TUF highest rated show on cable, the contender which was a boxing reality show, got cancelled after a few episodes.

    and when you say kickboxers? do you mean, thai boxing? san da? international kickboxing? or do you mean american kickboxing, which is like point sparring but with shiny pants.


    i ll wait for your rebutal.
