Manhoef is a genius on the feet, but he is so one dimensional he never stands a chance against top level guys.

he only lost once, (to sonnen) and that was after he did'nt make weight and pretty much refused to fight because he was all fucked up on meds....

I'd love to see filho fight in the ufc 205's...

he's a lot like Maia...

once he gets ya on the ground ...YOU'RE FUCKED !

Filho will never be in the UFC. He fucked up his one shot in the sister WEC. Maia also avoids getting hit much like Machida.
Filho almost got knocked out several times in his last fight.

Did you see the Guida/Sanchez fight? They don't get any better, and it was free!

... even check out that fedor vs nog fight. there is something about Japan that allows for more striking on the ground and more movement than in the ufc.

Japan did allow soccer kicks, but no elbows.

Post by: americanbulldog on July 21, 2009, 12:14:32 PM: Why Melvin tried to ground and pound is beyond me. He should have stood up and make Paulo fight his fight.
