Default MMA Thread

Discuss or post videos of anything related to the UFC or MMA in general.

This is perhaps one of the most baddest, toughest, fierce, hard-hitting bad-ass that ever walked the planet. Fedor Emelianenko from Russia was a beast, and for a long stretch, was the best heavyweight in MMA history. No one could beat him. Eventually, recently, he has had a string of losses, but he still was one of the best heavyweights ever.

Hey cnredd, do you think you could last one minute in the cage with ole Fedor?

Skip to 1:30 to skip the crap and get to the good stuff.

If I could get through a punch and grab him, then "maybe"...

Here is Anderson "The Spider" Silva. He is widely considered the greatest pound for pound MMA fighter of all-time. The man is insanely good and lethal.

Here is a general highlight real that is very good.


Here is Silva absolutely destroying Rich Franklin in a highlight and commentary montage. I have never seen a fighter get dominated like this, and Franklin was unstoppable in a span in the middleweight division for some time.


Here is Silva getting submitted by a ridiculously crazy move early on in his career.

I love ya, and think you are without question a bad and fierce man as well as the reigning PW Toughman Contest, he is more than just a striker, which is why he was the baddest man in MMA for a long time. No one came close to beating him for a while. He is an accomplished and well-respected grappling and submission fighter.

Quote:
He has won numerous tournaments and accolades in multiple sports, most notably the Pride 2004 Grand Prix and the World Combat Sambo championship on four occasions, as well as medaling in the Russian national Judo championship.

Emelianenko has received widespread acclaim from several major publications, including Sports Illustrated, USA Today, and Sherdog.com. Many analysts, as well as former and current fighters, consider Emelianenko to be the greatest mixed martial artist of all time. He remained undefeated for nearly a decade, during which time he was widely considered the best heavyweight fighter in mixed martial arts.

cnredd will appreciate the difficulty and upper-body strength needed to pull this off. One of the greatest slams in MMA.

I don't have video clip, but the best MMA KO I ever saw was one in a bout between two "low end" fighters. One guy gets in a brutal shot to the ribs of his opponent, who doubles over in pain. The first guy gets a little cocky and the one who was hurt suddenly unloads a KO punch on his opponent and puts him OUT. Legs stiff, toes up, eyes rolled back - OUT!!

Big fight tonight on pay-per-view. Silva vs. Bonnar.

Silva is widely regarded as the greatest pound-for-pound fighter to live in MMA and the UFC. He is just devastating, quick and lethal, as well as highly versatile.

Bonna is a fine, well-rounded fighter who had one of the greatest and epic fights against a fighter I forget his name because I am
