Ditto...

Tito has risen to a different level of training and mind set over the past couple of years. He is more focused than ever before and would have to agree, will give the "Ice Man" some major problems...

He def is a different fighter from a couple years ago...I think right now he is probably the best light heavy weight out there...time will tell.

I think Strini SS is the best light weight out there. Maybe he should "Get it on!" with another light weight for some "Duckets"!

Any takers?

IMO Titto would need to make the fight a ground game to pull off a win with Liddell...

You must have been watching another fight...All the elbows hit and Shamrock was stunned because he was not defending himself. The ref did the right thing. The reason Shamrock did not complain about the match was this. He was afraid Tito might come back and get him again!!!!

Most definitely. I've only seen Liddell on the ground once (against Coutre). While all credit should be given to Couture, Liddell looked like a fish out of water. A friend of mine insists that Liddell is a heck of a wrestler :shrug:.

I'd pay to watch it .

Silva is a bad dude.

One thing worth noting: Pride fighters make WAY more money than UFC guys do, and they demand more money because of their badassness . With the popularity of the UFC in the US now, I think their pay scale is going to get higher and higher - which is why we are seeing someone like Silva fighting in the UFC. MAke no mistake, Dana White is an excellent businessman. His job is not about fighting - its straight up marketing, and he is doing a great job.

I'd like to see Phil Barone in the UFC again .
