Wandering_Minstrel 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 I like Matt Brown for this one. Wilks is no slouch, but Brown has the better standup and he should know enough on the ground not to get caught with something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ares9139 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 I think Wilks's standup is good enough to hang with Brown, he has a decent advantage on the ground as well, so I think Wilks will finish it there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fast_Knockout 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 Matt Brown via TKO Round 2 Matt Brown is pretty well known for his cardio and striking, and he isn't bad on the ground. The only thing I see Wilks having on him is speed, which I don't think will matter much. I don't know, I just can't see Wilks winning. But, I've been wrong before.

HappyHamer 1 Report post Posted November 14, 2009 Can't we Brits just claim that as Wilks has been living in the US for nearly a decade that he has been disowned by Britain? I'm joking of course. In the fantasy picks I had Wilks by leglock, and when he tried to apply that heelhook I was bouncing in my chair. That lasted for 10 seconds until Brown got free then carried on destroying the American Wilks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EvilOak27 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2009 Matt Brown looked fantastic, great fight. His nickname, 'the immortal', isn't so cool though IMO. Matt Browns nickname should be 'Downtown Matt Brown', cause he takes guys downtown! (Yes Matt, you can use that!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yoter_man 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2009 Whats the matter?Dont like the fact a brit came over and battered all you yanks!! Wilks by rear naked round 1! well, that yank whooped his brittish **** didn't he. Did you see the pool of blood on the canvas after the GnP to finish the fight? Wilks is another brit with a bad attitude, he along with Bisping are the reason Brits get a bad rep in sports, and its based soley on their attitudes. IF i was british and looking for a spokesperson for mma in britain it would be Ross Pearson, he's a great fighter and seems to be one the most humble down to earth people i've seen in along time from brittain.

Randy_Fan 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2009 I always though Wilks has a weak chin even against Frank I was worried in tuf 9, he has good skills but his stand up defence is lacking. He didn't have his hands up properly and when he saw the knee coming he put his hands down and braced to take it in the head as if he had an invisible shield that was gonna protect him lol. He instinctively put his hands down where you would think he would hold them up as the blow was coming, was weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
button_man 176 Report post Posted November 15, 2009 a good fight also.almost had brown with the kimura,i don't know how brown pulled his hand and later on got a very dominant position.brown should fight the top contenders and another win can possibly give him a title shot.

Brown didn't show great sub defence, but did show fantastic sub resistance. Great fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1fan4fun 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2009 Another solid performance by Matt Brown. Even though I picked Wilks to sub Brown, I knew that Brown had a tendency of going ninja and stopping fights. Well no real shock here that Brown out-classed Wilks. I gotta give Wilks some credit too for hanging in there during some tense moments. He didn't give up early, and there's no real shame in getting TKO'd by Brown. Who's next for Matt Brown? And Wilks for that matter... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HappyHamer 1 Report post Posted November 15, 2009 Wilks has now gained access to an elite club, along with Joe Stephenson and Amir Sadollah. TUF winners who have lost their official debut. Wilks loss is the most damaging however, as Joe Daddy dropped a decision to Josh Neer and Amir was the victim of an early stoppage. Wilks was dominated by someone who is not long out of the TUF process himself, and Wilks biggest TUF asset, his submission game, was nullified by Brown.
