Old Feller - btw, what happened to Rios? Did sherdog can him?
That's what I heard
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I read his fight previews just to make myself angry for some reason. I remember he couldn't talk about a single fight without using the phrase "slick front-headlock series" for about a month. He would say this about anyone that had ever won by guillotine. Not to mention his horrible pop-culture references. I remember he made a joke about the ending of Vanilla Sky once. Way to reference a movie from years ago that nobody saw! Fackin' idiot.
And oh yeah, go McCorkle. I bet if that moran actually read this he'd be wondering why you compared him to a chinese ravioli until he busted out his dictionary.
The Megatoppa - I don't get what? That You're trying to prove that you're tall and good looking? Witty? In the ufc? Being part of team Internet? Getting one back for the Internet warriors that you rub proverbial shoulders with? You need to look past Struve and really see the reality here. You may be facing fighters like JDS and velasquez and no amount of trash talking on the net is gonna help you there.But carry on by all means and I'll toast a beer to your demise as a pro fighter
So if I can't beat Cain or JDS then I have no future in MMA?
The Megatoppa - Didn't say that at all. But if you're not in it to win it, you should make room for people that are hungry. .. Do you think you can beat either of those fighters? .Just sayin'
That's the stupidest logic I've ever heard in my life. There can only be one champion. Do you honestly think Struve has any chance of ever being the champ? Or Roy Nelson? Or 90% of the fighters in the UFC? By your logic we'd have 2 fights in the heavyweight divsion year round with JDS, Cain, Brock, or Carwin fighting each other every PPV.
Why would any pro fighter spend his or her time talking trash and insulting members of a forum?
The difference between Chael an Sean is thar Chael doesn't start forum threads to primarily get a reaction out of fans and then subsequently verbally attack them. Sean you have no idea who these people you are insulting are. You could be assisting in destroying somebody confidence and self worth and as a 'pro' fighter you should be seen as a role model to fans not a bullying idiot!
And for all you people who think Sean is the funniest thing to hit the UG, I imagine you are the bullies in your schools and workplaces also.
There is nothing remotely funny or intelligent about calling people names on an Internet forum.
It is all a ploy to gain attention and it isnt in the least bit amusing but as megatoppa says it could all go horribly wrong and you could find yourself facing Ken Shamrock for $500 soon.
The Megatoppa - The difference between Nelson and struve and you is they don't spend their time on the net showing off Trannies they are hooking up with or trying to win over the Internet fans with lackluster bullshit. They are training and showing respect for fellow athletes.Can't wait till your beautiful face to have some permanent damage.We all saw what happened on the weekend to people that talk a lot of trash <img src="/images/phone/post_tag.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>
Sean McCorkle - That's the stupidest logic I've ever heard in my life. There can only be one champion. Do you honestly think Struve has any chance of ever being the champ? Or Roy Nelson? Or 90% of the fighters in the UFC? By your logic we'd have 2 fights in the heavyweight divsion year round with JDS, Cain, Brock, or Carwin fighting each other every PPV.
Roo Badley - You're going to hammer Struve if you want my opinion. The main thing he gives people problems with is his size, which you match up great with. He'll come in flailing and trying to connect. Make sure your cardio is where it needs to be, work on stand up defense, watch his knees in the clench and get him to the ground where you will own him. Just my 2 cents.
Struve has 7 wins by Triangle Choke. Terrible matchup for McCorkle, he'll either get KO'd or sub'd.
Sean McCorkle - So let me get this straight. I am "trying, (and failing) desperately to be a Chael Sonnen"?
Number one, I was talking shit on the internet before anyone had ever even heard of Chael Sonnen. I don't need to copy anyone's "act". I'm also "failing" so badly that my youtube interview with Ariel Helwani has more views than any other fighter interview that was done that weekend.
And a thread created by Stefan Struve about photoshopping a pic of me has over 200,000 views and nearly 700 posts in roughly 30 hrs.
Number two, if anything Chael wishes he could be like me. The difference is I don't use audience plants or scripted lines to do it. What you get with me is always original and off the top of my head. My entire pre-fight interview with Ariel Helwani (which was much funnier than anything Chael has ever done) was all done without me knowing what questions to expect, and without me having any planned responses.
Lastly, if you want to hang around this business for very long, you might want to watch yourself before you get Tomas Rios'd.
PS: Your first name is missing a "w" and your last name fucking sucks. Love ya ;)
I like totally broke that story about Chael using plants. I don't think we're supposed to talk about it in public, people threw a pissy fit.
That said, Anton is a cool dude and one of the least "character" type of writers trying to get over by shit-talkin fighters.
I don't agree with what he said though. I mean I used to think you were unfunny (based on limited reading of your posts on here), but you're actually a funny dude. Sonnen is a hack.
frontrowbrian - You didn't break shit. You read it on a forum
I was being facetious. I would think "I like totally" (which isn't used by any non-valley person over the age of 13 would've clued you in. I guess I was wrong.
I am blown away by how ridiculous the posts from the tener newbs are in this thread. I mean, some of them are so over-the-top ignorant and presumptuous I am almost impressed.
I was just about to correct you myself. McCorkles win put him up in a co-main though and Chael (no matter how much I think the guys awesome) was on roids. Mark Hunt, old or no, is also not someone I'd write off like that, his losses aren't against bums like.
