Re: UFC 94 Georges St-Pierre Vs. BJ Penn your thoughts?
Blah....Chuck is done. I feel it's far too late in his career to be making any considerable changes to his fight game, especially considering how little it has ever changed at all. He HAD the tools to become a much more complete fighter, but his days of bullshit wins are over. He was never that good, he was just a very strong puncher. I look at him the same way I look at Tyson...he had all the tools, but could never get away from the allure of punching your way to every victory instead of using a good gameplan and technical skill set. I've called it for years, and I'm happy to see these younger fighters proving me right by destroying Chuck.
Page vs Machida or Evans vs Machida are probably the only two fights that genuinely excite me on that list. The only other one I would add would be Forrest vs Machida. I think that it's gonna take more than a good gameplan or skill set to beat Machida...it's gonna take heart, and nobody has shown me more heart than Forrest.
Boxing is like a handjob, and MMA is like a hot sweaty orgy with 5 chicks. I could never say no to a handjob, but which would you rather have?
