Schimling's Random MMA News: UFC 100, Anderson Silva,Thiago Alves, and More!

Alright after browsing around I came up with some interesting stuff. Enough to make into an article. So enjoy!

UFC 100 News

Looks like UFC 100 just got better (for me at least), my boy Jim Miller just got added! He's set to take on Mac Danzig, Dana must have read my last article.

Thiago Alves said he's ready to KO Georges St.Pierre. Here are his words: “I was born ready for this fight. I’m training hard for this one and this is the biggest fight of my career. I’m really excited to fight the baddest man on the earth and I can’t wait to knock him out. I’ve gotten so much better. I feel like the luckiest man in the world, fighting GSP, the toughest man on the planet, and fighting at UFC 100 is an honor.”

Looks like Thiago is ready!

Last but not least the Spike TV special countdown: UFC's 100 greatest fights. Will be a five part series. The voting begins May 1st, on spike.com. It will premiere on July 5th, and end on July 11th. I'm just taking a wild guess, and assuming the number one fight will be Forrest Griffin/Stephan Bonnar.

Anderson Silva

Anderson Silva has done some calling out recently. Here are his words: “How much do you weigh? So why are you going to get yourself in trouble?” Anderson asked of Wanderlei.

Anderson has his own answer to the question: He called Wanderlei’s move to 185 “pretentious.”

And then he called out Demian Maia! Here are those words: “Saying that you will beat me up or submit me is very easy, but there have been people trying to do that for some time and are not reaching their goal, Demian.”

Looks like Anderson is stirring the pot, everyone cross your fingers and hope for Silva/Maia at UFC 102 (which I'm will be attending, if it's in Portland)!

UFC Undisputed: The Video Game

I've seen a ton of video's and screen shots, and this game looks awesome! I would create Fedor, but again, the stats won't go up that high. No Randy Couture, Clay Guida, or Jim Miller. But they do have Tito!

T.U.F 9

The second episode rating were a 1.2. Which is still good, this season may revive the series. Did anyone else find the herpes bump gag inducing? Team U.S.A didn't really seem as strong as team U.K, but I'll still root for them!

Strikeforce

Saturday April 11,2009 (tomorrow) is the Strikeforce card. I'm going to Hooters and watching it. Here are my picks!

(Main Card Only)

Shamrock/Diaz- Diaz-TKO-Round 2

Melendez/Damm- Melendez-Submission-Round 1

Smith/Radach- Radach-Unanimous Dec.

Santos/Akano-Santos-KO-Round 1 (If it happens)

Rogers/Humphrey-Rogers-Unanimous Dec.

There you go, lock em' in!

Other Random Stuff

Jake Shields will appear this week on Bully Beat-down (my new favorite show). I think the bully might go home empty handed.

A Tim Sylvia/Ray Mercer boxing match will take place inside a MMA cage. This is why I hate Tim Sylvia!

Cyborg Santos weighed in six pounds over, she has until five o'clock pacific time to get down to 146. Let's hope she gets it done!

That's it for now, thanks for reading!
