team_uk Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 but you have to give credit where its due! Well done sonen and thiago!! Cant wait for silva to shut sonens mouth though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfX38 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I agree with it all. The fights weren't given away, the fighters who won took it. I think Nate definetly looked past Sonnen. His lack of takedown defense looked as if he was training for Anderson. Supporting all the lads from the UK, except Dan Hardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice_Cold92 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I was absolutely shocked when Sonnen put that dominating performance on him. Sonnen's just proving everyone wrong these days and he is definitely worthy of his shot. Not so shocked about Thiago winning. The way he won is a different story however. I was expecting a UD, but I am impressed with him again. I knew he was no joke and was better than Swick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towhatend Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Yeah Thiago looked very impressive last night. I think coming in on short notice might have hurt Swick, he seemed rather gun shy. Hardy really might have messed with him. But that is not to take anything away from Thiago, he looks much stronger compared with his debut like Joe Rogan was saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthizar Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 swick just isnt that great Nate did look past chael but he should have realized this in the fight and he is still a strong fighter and he should have won even if he underestimated him or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magog Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I think everyone looked past Chael but Chael. As for Swick, I think the right man won that fight. I hope Swick goes back to 185. He use to be a fun fighter to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_Moss Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 but you have to give credit where its due! Well done sonen and thiago!! Cant wait for silva to shut sonens mouth though!! Sonnen reminds me of Randy Couture. Strong wrestler and strong minded. Right now Sonnen is one of the toughest guys in the UFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machusays Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 i think marquardt would smash sonnen in a rematch considering how much damage he did the first time when he overlooked chael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judo_phantom Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 thiago is the real deal, and i'm surprised more people didn't realise that BEFORE the swick fight. in my opinion, he's one of the most dangerous guys at 170 right now. as far as sonnen, i'm just glad he beat nate, because there's just something about nate, and i have no idea what it is, that makes me want to see him get beat on.

Stratocaster Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 as far as sonnen, i'm just glad he beat nate, because there's just something about nate, and i have no idea what it is, that makes me want to see him get beat on. i agree he gets a littele smug in my opinions some of the fighters uer greg jackson think they should do so good just because they train with carwin and rashad..
