Shields tittelimatsiin tuolla esityksellä? Onhan se tietty UFC:n ulkopuolella ottanut kovia matseja, mutta olisin luullut että ainakin kertaalleen saa vielä otella ennen tittelimatsia.
En kyllä näe miten Shields voittaisi GSP:n. Shieldsin pysty on niin alkeellista, että GSP varmaan pitää ottelun pystyssä ja rusikoi Shieldsin.
In an interview for Tatame, Ataíde Jr (Thiago's coach at Constrictor Team) says that Paulo's future with the UFC is uncertain, but they are hoping that he is given one more chance in an undercard fight.
Paulo is 3-3 in the UFC with a KO win against Koscheck, a Sub win against Mike Swick and a Decision win against Volkmann. He has 3 decision losses to Fitch, Kampmann and now Diego Sanchez.
Thiago is an active special operations police officer in Brazil. It's an extremely dangerous job which is physically and mentally demanding. His coach believes Paulo doesn't necessarily have to quit his job, but he hints that he will only be successful in the octagon if he becomes a full time fighter.
This is what Ataíde had to say:
"What saved the night was that Fight of The Night bonus, but I think he still has a chance to come back and fight again. Paulo had a great 1st round, but started to slow down after round 2, while Diego got stronger."
"We'll go back to Brazil now to regroup and watch the fight so we can figure out what went wrong... We can't understand why Paulo does so well in practice but can't perform to at his best during his fights. The strategy was to not be under Diego and attack heavily on the feet, but we couldn't do that."
"We have huge support from the Militar Police, but I think Thiago is lacking a bit of focus and dedication in his training. In Brazil it's extremely hard to find sponsorship, but we will have to increase his training routine."
If the UFC gives him another chance, it will probably be in the undercard. Since he joined the org he only fought tough opponents, that's why I think they'll give him another chance. The UFC usually extends their fighter's contracts before they get to their last fight, so let's see what they will do."
This last bit of the interview is a bit confusing. But what I understand is that this fight with Diego was Paulo Thiago's last in his contract and the UFC hasn't made him an extension offer yet. Hmmm... If that's the case, it doesn't look good for Paulo!
En itsekään ymmärrä miten tollaisella esityksellä voi päästä lähellekään tittelimatsia,ton perusteella Shields ei kuulu edes divarin top10:n joukkoon...muutenkin ärsyttää toi UFC:n politiikka yrittää väkisin ajaa mestariksi haluamansa henkilö,jolla ei välttämättä ole mitään tekemistä sen kanssa onko kyseinen tyyppi edes ansainnut titleshotin,vaan isot pomot vaan laskee et tää jätkä me halutaan mestariksi koska vetää eniten katsojia=tuo eniten rahaa firmalle.Näin toimittiin Lesnarin kanssa ja nyt ajetaan väkisin Shieldsiä mestariksi,ilmeisesti ajatellaan että tuollainen all-american kultapoika mestarina toisi enemmän katsojia kuin huonosti englantia puhuva kanadalainen...sucks!
Ei oo linkkiä tähä, mutta jos ne Paulon leikkaa UFCstä ni mää kyllä itken. Mun mielestä vois heittää vaikka suoraa main cardille viellä, mutta antakaa nyt edes gimme sille tjsp. Ainut huono matsi sillä on ollu se Kampmann matsi. Tyrmäs Kossin ja subbas Swickin.. Fitchiltäki sai yhen erän.
"I know nothing about it, this is the first I heard of it. But it would be an interesting fight for sure. I think Roy’s style matches very well with mine, we could have a good fight. I didn’t hear anything from the UFC yet, but lets see if they call me."
Dana White confirms to Comcast Sportsnet's Fight Fix (via MMA Weekly) that Jon Jones will meet Ryan Bader at UFC 126.
Las Vegas, NV (USA) – The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is holding a media conference call in which UFC President Dana White will make a major announcement. The conference call will take place Thursday, October 28th starting at 10:00am PT/1:00pm ET.
DW puhui viikko takaperin jälleen kerran UFCn telkkaridiilistä, henk koht arvaukseni on että nyt se julkistetaan, tänne meille ei varmaan vaikutusta näy vittujakaan ainakaan aluksi, mutta iso homma jenkkilän päässä.
Jos ja kun tämä nyt se kauan huhuttu diili on, niin ensi vuonna UFCllä on tuplamäärä eventtejä tähän vuoteen nähden, joten kuivia viikonloppuja ei paljoa ole.
