UFC 108 - RASHAD vs SILVA

I expect to see a great fight with these two light heavyweight fighters .Both Rashad and Thiago lost only once ,to the same man.The undefeated and current light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida .They really wanna fight again with Machida,and both want the opportunity to fight for the belt.Rashad was a champion ,unlike Thiago Silva .For Thiago becoming the champion one day is his dream,and he has got the will to fight against any fighter the UFC puts in front of him to achieve his dream.They're both good at stand up ,they have the knock-out power in their fists,but one is a wrestler and the other is a jiu-jitsu fighter.Thiago Silva destroied Rashad's training partener Keith Jardine .The match with Keith was the first after Silva's loss to "The Dragon" Machida.



Another match I'm looking forward to see is the battle between Junior Dos Santos and Gilbert Yvel .I want to see how good Dos Santos is in this hevyweight division.Is he the future champion Nogueira said or not.Dos Santos defeated Mirko CroCop the last time he fought inside the octogon.Gilbert Yvel makes his UFC debut January 2nd,with the fight against Dos Santos.Gilbert Yvel likes to knock-out his opponents,a lot of them, in his mma career .He said is going for the knock-out,and he said that with a smile on his face.Will see if the smile remains on his face after the bell rings.On the other hand Dos Santos was calm,he said everybody has got a mouth they can say whatever they want... ,we'll see when these two will enter the octogon.


It was not an exciting fight this main event .Rashad used his wrestling skills to win points ...and that's it he won .I did not liked the fight.I like Thiago's attitude in the third round .He wanted to bang with Rashad ,just fight,that's why your there .He beat rashad up in the 3rd round.In my oppinion Silva would have won this fight only if he would woke up in the 2nd round and try harder to knockout Rashad .In the end Rashad was the better fight this night,he was able to follow a good game plan to win this fight .If they will fight again ,I don't think we'll see the same fight.I hope Thiago learned something from this loss and comes out a better fighter the next time he steps inside the octogon .

The fight I liked,and I think many people liked that fight it was the battle between Yvel and Santo s .The heavyweights started to bang.Dos Santos was the strong one ,he won the fight with a TKO .He destroied Yvel .Now that's a good fight to see.I like how Santos fights ,he's got the knockout power ,no doubt about that .
