Should be a good fight. Nogeuira is a good fighter.....he beat Sapp which is no easy task.

I don't know why but I just don't like Sakuraba......I was happy when Crocop handed him his ***.

Takada's "last" fight..........thank god. He hasn't won a fight in so long I can't remember who he beat.

They usually don't stick the worst fighters out there now do they..........

I saw several interviews with him..........I still think he is a jerk.

Ya know Ace you must lead a charmed life.

We are continually told by the Admin./Moderators here that Martial Talk is a "Friendly" discussion board........and yet numerous times you have openly insulted other members of this board as well me, case in point above, thrown down several of your macho not to mention "brave" Internet challenges............and yet not ONCE has your account been suspended let alone canceled. I have seen other members get suspended or even booted for less serious and fewer infractions of the rules.
How is that you get to remain possible?

Maybe we should all take after your idea of "friendly"............

Moderator Note:

We prefer not to rush into things, wanting to take into consideration every angle, and make certain that what we do is as fair as it can be. We received the complaint sent earlier today, discussed it, reviewed this thread, looked at past complaints/threads/etc and came to a consensus. Given that we don't live in front of our computers, and are each separated by hundreds of miles at a minimum, and have lives, this process takes a little time to work. Have patience.

Well...
I like Sakuraba, but I still agree wholeheartedley with RyuShiKan.

After being gone for several months, and no promise of coming back soon, this "ace" cat seems to be one of the least intelligent of the postwar settlemements to date.

and that's cool. I know some people who like him.
I like Rickson Gracie and Bob Sapp and some people don't.
Different strokes for different folks......................
