Coleman has a really good shot

Coleman has a really good shot..... at ending up in the morgue. Fedor by 2nd degree murder.

Even though it is not as long as I would like to see I think he has enough time to train and know who his opponent is earlier than usual for Pride. This will have to help Coleman especially against Fedor. His style is always the same and Coleman will prepare and hopefully be ready for it. I do see Fedor on his back in this one because one thing Coleman can still do is take down his opponent.

Great fight GP or not. I`m looking forward to seeing it because I think it is going to be closer than people think it is.

Can someone post the card?

Thanks

"Coleman has a really good shot....."

Really?

"at ending up in the morgue."

D'OH!

Coleman has the slightest of chances, but frankly he has a better chance of riding that giant banana in the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade.

out with the old and in with the new, fedor by way of beat down.

I'm pretty sure that coleman is a better wrestler than Fedor so it's unlikely that Fedor will take coleman down, but Fedor is excellent on his feet, and I think he'll be able to defend the takedown pretty well.

Fedor may win most of his fights on the ground, but he can certainly do it on his feet aswell!

Fedor is too much of a buzz saw for Mark. I don't see it lasting more than a few minutes.

I see Coleman shooting early. Fedor sprawling , then club down with some of his vicious jackhammers for and early ko victory. It'll look like when he fought Goodridge. I like Coleman, but he will have nothing for Fedor.

lol! Coleman is not in his prime anymore. Fedor may have trouble grounding him due to his strengths as a wrestler but there will be no problem pounding him.

Pride believes Coleman has a good shot or they would not have put him against Fedor. Right now Pride is pissed at Fedor and gave him Coleman for a reason.

Man I hope Coleman wins. He can too.

I like both fighters and I feel bad that someone has to lose in this matchup.  Fedor is the definite favorite in this matchup but I can't count out Coleman.  However if he fought like he did against Frye, there is no way Coleman is going to win...

Does anyone think Fedor can get the takedown on Coleman?  I actually think this match might be the one where Coleman will be taken down for the first time in his career of MMA.

 

people fail to realize the balance of fedor.remamber he is also a sambo champion.anyways fedor will sprawl and make mark stand.sorry to say but this will be the fight to show that mark has been passed by.this is his retirement fight,and may be celebrating it in the hospital.

Mark Coleman is an Olympic caliber wrestler, came in 7th in Barcelona 92. If the Hammer is in shape and has a good gameplan, Fedor will get grounded and pounded into submission.

Watch the 2000 GP.

I think that Fedor probably will take this one....but if Coleman comes in shape, he could take him down and pound out a decsion. It's defiently an interesting match-up

coleman! Coleman! coleman! (starts a chant)

Coleman!

fedor will be way too much for mark! 2nd rnd ref stoppage for fedor.

wtf, I'll still root for Coleman anyway.

Coleman would be the better wrestler. Both are GNP specialist but Fedor's punches are much more devastating. Coleman will have the edge on takedowns. Coleman needs to take it to the ground fast and stay on top. Fedor will have a hard time reversing Coleman, therefore, he needs to keep it standing as long as possible and use his better boxing skill to put Coleman on his ass, then finish with his GNP.

I say Fedor will do just that, he will keep Coleman at a safe distance, then come in hard and fast with a combo that will put Coleman down and then it is al over from there.
