The Cody is back!

[thecody]

Hey guys its been a long time since I have posted here in the forum, I know you all missed me haha. I have posted on The Lights Out Show here and there but I have been busy starting a family and stuff so I really haven't had time to check out the posts and make my as most of you say irrelevant arguments. But I have recently found some spare time and am ready to talk some MMA, I know yall are itching to give me a hard time so ill name off some of my random MMA thoughts I'd like to share and then yall can just tell me off or agree......yea right the day someone agrees with me is the day I become a Miami Heat fan.


* Did anyone know that The Ultimate Fighter 12's Johnathan Brookins fought Jose Aldo in one of Aldo's first fights and actually was able to toss Aldo in the first round. But he ended up losing pretty convincingly by TKO. I thought it was interesting to find out.


*Despite his win over Lesnar, The Cody sticks by the fact that Cain Velesquez is overrated! Dos Santos is gonna whoop his ass, its just a shame that Lesnar has turned into a woosey other wise he probably would of defeated Velesquez. Also if Velesquez could of avoided hitting Lesnar with illegal blows then maybe the fight would of ended differently but of course who am I to say.


*Rampage Jackson should fight Jon "Bones" Jones win or lose against Bader because that is a fight of the year calibur fight. I have been wanting to see that fight for a while and I hope to get to see it soon.


*Lyoto Machida has kind of hit a wall recently, I think that first fight against Shogun despite winning the fight did something to him made him change his game a bit. I wouldnt be surprised if he lost again. Hopefully he can find his swagger because without him the Light-Heavyweight division becomes very shallow.


*Gerald Harris being released from the UFC I thought was a stupid move on the UFC's part. I believe that he underestimated his opponent at this past UFC and that is why he had such a poor performance. I thought he was a guy that could kind of play the spoiler roll to up and coming Middleweights.


*Dana White has to do something about the welterweight division. After Koscheck/GSP winner fights Jake Shields whats next? Jon Fitch despite who ever he would face would lose to any of the 3 guys. Thiago Alves has become irrelevant just as I predicted about him. So who else is there? I mean Anthony Johnson had potential but I dont know where the hell he has been. Nate Diaz is on a roll but I dont think his size can carry him past the elite welterweights. Dong Hyun Kim may have potential but I think he is to one dimensional to do any real damage. The only guy I can think of who you can make a case for giving a shot in the future if he keeps winning is Carlos Condit, but much like I think about Jon Fitch I dont think Condit could beat GSP, Koscheck or Shields.


*I agree with Dana White about Marquardt being a big fight choker because the Marquardt against Okami was not the Marquardt I am used to seeing. I think Nate Marquardt put up a better performance against Chael Sonnen then he did against Okami and he spent most of that fight on his back. Anderson Silva vs Yushin Okami wouldnt even be a good Strikeforce main event jesus.


Last but not least


*Frankie Edgar WILL defeat Gray Maynard.

*Tampa Bay will lose to the Ravens tomorrow

*It's wussy, not woosey

and glad you are back...

[ericpaul1986]

seems like i recall a bet between you and mike....... welcome back

[dfdmike]

good luck getting him to follow through there, eric. last times we've had similar bets, he completely ignores his original side. lol, now the reason cain won is because brock is a "woosey". come on... just admit you were wrong.

"Also if Velesquez could of avoided hitting Lesnar with illegal blows then maybe the fight would of ended differently "

like... for real? did we watch the same fight??
you can't take this guy seriously, eric. sometimes cody, you do have a good perspective and take an angle most wouldn't think, and it's clever. unfortunately, your bias is so strong in everything it just looks like epic propaganda. example, machida is my favorite fighter. the first rd with rampage could have easily been scored for lyoto. but, machida could've done so much more in the first two rounds, i can see how rampage got the nod. i don't know ANYONE who thought brock was in any position to win that fight past the 15 second mark, but i know a lot who think machida got the nod, but which are you bringing up??

as for dos santos, it's a better match up. dos santos has the striking and BJJ advantage. brock had NO advantage. you can't win without having any strengths over your opponent. i said it before, big country and dos santos are my picks for toughest matches for cain. what makes it even tougher is if all the rumors of junior being nearly impossible to take down are true. i say 8 out of 10 times cain pulls this one off. if it makes it to the championship rounds junior will be wishing it were over gassed as hell. his best bet is to win like he usually does, in carwin-like first round ko. usually strikers in this situation are so nervous to be taken down, they end up not being able to pull the trigger. hopefully for dos santos, he can throw bombs and roll the die.

coooodyyyy

[thecody]

Take it easy Mike, The Cody unlike before cant jump on here every day and every minute. The Cody MAY BE becoming a father and has bigger things to deal with then talking MMA hahaha ya know what I mean. But since I am here lets get to business.


I would come through with the bet.....had I remembered what I bet haha. I am going to have to check back through the forums to see what I said cause I honestly dont remember. Also I didnt even know Cain landed an illegal blow up until I found some WWE turned UFC fan ranting about it on youtube and Although it was one shot, a punch to the back of the head did knock Lesnar to the canvas so footage doesn't lie find it for yourself man its all there.

Bias I indeed am, I have been saying it from the very first time I posted here I am a bias guy because I grew up watching sports I am very passionate about it and I HATE to admit the people I cheer for suck. Alah Josh Koscheck, I have been calling for an upset the entire time yet home boy comes out and chokes. Sure the 120 jabs to the face didnt help but even I could of done more in that fight then he did, I mean I hope someone agrees with me on this. You know that this is your 2nd fight with GSP this is also likely your ONE CHANCE at the welterweight title and you dont leave it in the cage. I would rather get knocked out or submitted for trying to win then to take a embarassing decision loss and not doing nothing other than one takedown. Josh Koscheck should of let all out but instead he was fighting not to lose other than fighting to win.


Where was I? Lost my train of thought. Oh well. Rampage Jackson is my favorite fighter like Machida is yours I have been watching Rampage since his knockout of Kevin Randleman, I hate to see the man lose and I always will make excuses thats just who I am man. But I was being unbias when I said that the Machida vs Rampage fight should of been a draw because I have watched the entire fight 3 times since the live fight and you can call that first round a draw easily.

But I mean something I have learned since my times for causing big fights on the internet is not everyone will agree with you and thats cool I will sit here go back n forth with as much MMA analysis as you want I love it now, I was 16-17 when I started leaving messages here now that I am 20 you grow a little bit you learn a little something. So Mike my man I hope to see you at our next disagreement of a fight haha.

not to be a dick, but what's with the "may be" dude, pregnancy tests are like ten bucks, just shove one up your crotch-- i kid. but seriously what does that mean?

[thecody]

Well we did and yea she isnt pregnant, so pfftt to that idea. To be honest would of been nice though being a father would just add to the great stuff going on in my life right now. Hahaha I'll get her next time hahaha jk jk.
