slack_415 Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 all the fights were very good. i was impressed. randy coutore lost, but fought his heart out. got out of those 2 submissions and escaped that "knockout". imo, this was the best card ive seen in a while. your thoughts?

Jiu_Jitsu_Johnny Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Yep, agreed. It was a great card. And to think it could have been even better had Maia v Marquart and Silva v Jardine been better fights, which most people thought they would.

I'll give credit in that they do create interesting events, however a fight like Couture vs Nog shows how a longer, technical, back and forth fight blows past a quick ko. You just want to see more rounds. But nonetheless great card. And all those noobs saying "Oh a Nogueira vs Couture, A sucky striker who gets beat up vs an 100 year old man", can Eff-off. Thats a legendary fight enough said. Your freakin idiot to blow off somebody like Nogueira who was bad in his last fight only becuase he was in horrible condition coming off of multiple injuries, and Couture IS Couture. That really pisses me off they shouldnt even be allowed in MMA forums with such a ignorant attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshdfs Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 GREAT card! I was expecting Silva to blast Jardinne so no surprise for me there. I did think the Marquadt/Maia fight would go a bit longer but damn that was a pretty KO! And what can you say about Couture and Noguiera going to war for three rounds, Epic fight! I hate to see The Natural lose but it couldn't have been to a better guy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inconnux Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 quite possibly the best UFC ever... the main card was probably top 1-3 fights the UFC has had... truly epic. Not one boring fight everyone came there and put on a show. Impressive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_Kang Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 definitely a good card. WAY better then 101, debatable on 100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Nog won a clear cut decision, Randy was inspirational in that fight. He showed why he is such a legend of the sport. From the way he fought, to his comments at the end. What a great fight between two legends. Oh, and i was extremely disapointed with Maia... I mean REALLY. He went for a head kick.... that early on in a fight.... and threw it carelessly, and didnt even throw it after a combo.... just a head kick.... at the beginning of a fight..... Damn i was amazed.... I suppose it shows his inexperience when striking though.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flagellum_dei Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 amazing fights, coutoure vs nog was just an amazing fight, randy lost but that man is still a champion in my eyes. great knockouts all night, best card I have seen all year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoelJacobs Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Awesome fights! I hated seeing randy lose but Nog's chin was like a rock tonight. Randy hit him with some shots that should have buckled him but they didnt. he looked a little dazed a few times but kept coming forward regardless. Marqruardt KO was sick. Maia actually came off the ground and did a half turn in the air. NASTY! We also got to see a new UFC record. To all those window lickers that think a card sucks because there are no title fights, just go away and never post again. Hopefully 103 will be just as awesome.

CycoKIlla121406050376 Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 at the end of the couture and nog fight, you couold here lesner yell for couture to pass nog guard.... that raises some questions like is lesner scared to fight nog after the show he put on.... i love mir and admire all he has done and been through but nog is a level above him and even above cpt america... therefore i think lesner is scared because look at how easy nog swept couture. now as for the fights themselves at 102 Hnda down one of the best cards of the yr the surprises the almost comebacks, the submissions and escapes, the knockouts of one punch to finishing someonme off it had it all, wish jardine would have won cause i hes a great guy who fights anyone at anyime. the leben fight was okay, the nate m fight was sick, just shows how hes got power. hand shake to k.s. he was clearly out classed techincally by vera but he stood in there. as for the main event all i have to say was it had everything and will be a ufc classic and timeless fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it that people who hate lesner throw all their common sense and/or mma understanding out the window? Lesner went to the UFC for hsi 2nd fight ever. He requested to be put in with the best guys. That is NOT being scared to fight. To assume he was cheering for Couture because he is scared is downright stupid. Most likely, he was cheering for Couture because, like everyone else who cheered for Couture, he just likes the guy. GASP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
