Edilberto "Crocota" de Oliveira

Vs. Paul"Relentless"Taylor

My pick: I'll go with Crocota. He is a Big Nog prodigy. He s undefeated, and all I've heard is watch out for this kid.
He has great Jiu-Jitsu, Great boxing, and can fight for days.

Crocota in the 2nd by RNC.

Mayweather was talking smack about UFC, then the UFC president called boxers 1 trick ponies. Mayweather countered with "look at the prize $".

they're both right. the purse is a lot greater for boxing and as a result, the boxing PPV prices are alot higher.

I hope MMA never reaches the sorry state that boxing is in. boxers spend the majority of their career padding and protecting a record.

Hungry fighters make good fights.

Big paydays weaken fighters/athaletes.

Cro Cop by Left high kick.

I'm thinking this fight could be an upset. I dont think Cro cop is fully acclimated to the Cage yet. I hope Gonzaga's corner studied what Fedor and Hunt did to CC. If Gonzaga can press forward CC wont be able to plant for his high kick. Regardless, this fight can end at any time.

Yeah its too bad that these fights are already over,and the results are in.They could have atleast let you know that you were viewing a rebroadcast.

**Bane** · 04-21-2007, 07:51 PM

Cro Cop will get knocked out in the first round.

So Matt Serra and Matt Hughes are going to be the coaches on the next ultimate fighter. Matt Serra called Hughes and "dick" and said he looks forward to hitting him the face.

scorpio · 04-21-2007, 08:22 PM

hmm, how do you neg rep people on this board?

Sully · 04-21-2007, 09:57 PM

Cro Cop just got knocked out.

Wow.

They can't even get the mouthpiece out of his mouth.

Sully · 04-21-2007, 09:58 PM

Looks like he probably tore quite a bit of stuff in his leg on the way down.

Wow.

Brutal.

58-4ever · 04-21-2007, 09:59 PM

That was nuts. One of the most brutal KOs I've seen.

Sully · 04-21-2007, 10:00 PM

It looked bad, then you see how he fell down and his leg bent under, and it's even worse.

OK so you know the results, I didnt bother to check them because Id rather not know the outcome until I see it.

Sully · 04-21-2007, 10:02 PM

I thought this was live?

I just went back and read this... didn't realize it, as they had "Live" on the screen all night.

I guess I should've figured out the time difference would make it ridiculous for it to be live.

My bad.
