The most underrated MW is by far, Yushin Okami. Not even close. He will, if his head is straight, make Marquardt look silly. Marquardt's striking is more aggresive, but sloppy. He's entertaining, but v. a technical wizard like Okami or Silva, he'll get knocked off in embarrassing fashion. Negative. The most underrated MW is by far, Yushin Okami. Not even close.

Nate won that fight versus Leites, I know I am not disagreeing with any of you. All has already known that. Maia would be interesting, but I think they want Nate to get a title shot again before Maia takes over the MW division, in which he will in time. Maybe they will throw a WEC guy in there, just to get Nate another W. Either way and any way, glad to see Nate back to action soon Throw Gouveia out of the possibilities, he just destroyed MacDonald.

Sat, 20 Dec 2008 08:12:11 +0000 http://fiveouncesofpain.com/?p=10193#comment-60825 I'm lovin' the fact that people are lovin' Marquardt. That whole Greg Jackson camp rules. I can't wait until Rashad beats Forrest, GSP (if he plays his cards right) beats Penn, and then Leonard Garcia beats Mike Brown. Then Greg Jacksons camp will hold 3 titles at the same time. If Mardquart beat Silva which is conceivable (but not in the right time frame of these other 3 which will likely hold titles). Jackson's camp will then hold 4 titles LONG LIVE THE NIPPLE TWEAK I’m lovin’ the fact that people are lovin’ Marquardt.

I'm not a big Maia fan only for the fact that all he has is high level jits. If somebody like Marquardt can get in there with him and keep the fight standing Maia will get annihilated.

It would consists of Okami/Lister vs. Marquardt/ ???? vs the winner of Franklin/HEnderson /Bisping vs Mai/Leiteis. That would clarify #1 contender status & pretty much gauanteed title shot. It probably wouldn't happen though causing the 185lb division to stay in limbo 4 to long.. Then we would probably see Silva go up in weight to face the top contenders in one of the deepest divisions in the world. What if the Ufc held a 10 man 185lb tournament for #1 contendr spot.

He needs to win definitively against a top-tier fighter before he's ready for a second shot at Silva. Let’s see how he fights in February before a rematch with Silva.

Who is there for Nate to fight except Maia? A Nate/Maia fight would be really good, that could find the next in line i think, I think if Okami wins he should fight Spider in April, then I'd think Hendo/Rich/Bisping winner gets next, but Nate/Maia if they fought would be right there for a title shot. UFC 95 has to be a Spike event, its in London, which are the ones that get put on Spike, with 92, 93 in Dublin, then 94 all being stacked cards with big fights, this shit doesnt have any major fights. Yes a Nate/Maia fight would be great, Joe Stevenson vs Diego is also a really good fight, maybe Huerta/Fisher would be nice on this card, probably wont happen till March, but even if you have two or three of them fights, is that a PPV worthy card? You'd need Chuck or Spider fighting to even consider that. I think with them two fights, it would be a really solid Spike TV card, but there arent any big main events that they can put on this card to make it a PPV, Diego Stevenson isnt a PPV main event, nore is Nate/Maia or whoever, or Huerta/Spencer, all three of them on a Spike card is great, but not for a PPV.

The Silva Vs Marquardt II Bandwaggin now leaving... I too like U guys agree,Nate is highly underated,He's top five in tht div. 1-A.silva(like U didnt knw this 2-R.Franklin(those who boubt this check who he's beaten & who's beaten him) 3-D.Henderson(his intro to the UFC was a harsh 1,He doesnt get any easy fights,Franklin wont be an exception,but if any other 1s wouldnt be a challenge to Hendo,but time isnt on his side & i think other than Silva theres no 1 he really cares to fight,which might make him over look a less caliber opponent. 4-N.Marquardt -results aside we all saw who was winnig that fight verses T.leites,& he lost to Kampman-& Nate ate him up,so much he moved dwn a wait class. 5-Yushin Okami-Poor man saw his shot vs Silva turn into a dance of vs Cote,now in limbo, he's still the best fighter left in the UFC that hasnt been Spanked by the Spider that wouild seem interesnting(beside the Nate & Hendo rematches- 5.5-T.leites-his record is impresive buttht Nate fight & kampman lost,plus his undisire to step up & fight Silva,only show me that he's not ready-his stand up & sub.,i feel dnt threating Silva,i feel Cote had a better shot w ! of his Crazy punches than he will-No Risk,No Reward-& he wont Risk it.......
