Danni Abbadi vs Jorge Gurgel at next fightnight or payperview. Don't remember which one.

Didnt really know that. The only time I've seen him on the ground is when Evans was beating the hell out of him.

Gurgel by flying armbar 10 seconds into round 1.

yeah, i was shitting on nickels until i remembered his combs win, so maybe he can pull it off

[hops69]

They didnt realize that it was gonna be stand up fight until the 1st rd was almost over. I think if Hamil wanted to fight his regular fight, Nickels submits him because he is acctaully really good at submission.

Shame on me - I did not see the Combs-Nickels fight. Did Nickels look that good?

[killerinstinct]

Keith is just to strong for Mike I can't see Mike Taking Jardine dow if Bonnar couldn't.

yeah i think Combs was brought in to whoop the crap out of Nickels, and yeah that plan backfired! I'm not gunna sell Nickels short at all. I'd probably say Jardine will win this fight, but if it goes to the ground then Nickels will submit him. Should be a decent fight either way. Hopefully it'll be televised!

And how is Abaddi getting another shot in the UFC? If that's true, Gurgel is gunna embarass him, and we'll finally be rid of the cancer known as Danny Abaddi...:grinsmile26:

i have to agree, i've seen some post about matt beating nickels with sloppy punches, but i think that was because matt is an olympic caliber wrestler and nickels didn't want to get put in a bad position in that fight
