Anyone wanna see Loiseau/Swick 2?

Maybe after Swick gets a title shot or somethin I watched the 3rd and 1st round of that fight, not the 2nd and heres what bugs me

a lot of the throws Swick was throwin in the first round were bein blocked well, in the 3rd round Swick was eatin some shots.. I felt Loiseau did a better job in those 2 rounds defending then Swick did, now I do believe Swick won that fight fair but I also felt that it was very close to being a draw, and that Loiseau shouldnt be fed to the dogs yet.. what bugs me about the Crow is how good his standup could be, he was throwin some real good combos vs Swick, he still has some deadly elbows, he just needs to improve his standup and the word he needs to beceom familiar with is SPEED. His defense is amazing, he is awesome at usin the weapons on his body, but he needs to become faster and more aggressive, Loiseau bugs me when hes not goin on the offensive in a fight when if he does so he has a chance to win it, the Franklin fight bugged the crap outta me for that same reason!

what happened as soon as Loiseau starting throwin offense? HE ROCKED ACE, I dunno the guy needs more energy and speed in his game and he can be a very very dangerous fighter, until then the guys gonna be somewhat of a gatekeeper and im a HUGE fan of the Crow I just wish he'd reach his potential.

Loiseau beats Swick in any rematch with him, gauranteed. He was soooooo gun shy the first 2 rounds of that fight and when he turned it on in the 3rd he showed what Loiseau is all about and completely manhandled Swick. I'd love to see a rematch.

hes been gun shy for a total of 7 rounds in his last two fights now I dont understand why its almost like someone in his family dies 5 mins before he goes out and fights

yeah, im sure this fight will happen and assuming swick doesn't upset everyone and beat franklin/silva for the belt, i'm almost positive that the crow will win the rematch. he needs to just throw it all on the line. he's got a good chin, he needs to fight like he did against tanner.

He needs to fight like there are only 3 rounds, not 12.....I mean seriously, who starts throwing after they've already lost the first 2 rounds?

i would love to see a rematch. i think they should give Swick a title shot. he's earned it IMO. the UFC has given other guys title shots for doing far less. say Swick gets the shot against the winner of Ace/Silva, then he'll have to fight the TUF winner. it'd be a long time before we see him fight Loiseau again. but i agree with everyone when they said Loiseau is too gun shy as of late. he could have dismantled Swick easily, and just didn't pull the trigger on him until it was too late. he rocked Swick on numerous occasions in the 3rd. what won Swick the fight was his aggresiveness and though sometimes that could be fatal for you, it often wins you fights. hopefully they'll get a chance to fight again.

If Loiseau lets his hands go and gets over this what seems like bad nerves he's had, Swick might be in big trouble.

I would love to see this match happen again! Obviously, I'm a Swick fan but I thought Loiseau was a round away from stopping him. But, I can't say that I think Loiseau would've beat him if he let it all out in rounds 1 and 2. Loiseau did so well in round 3 because Swick was completely out of energy. He was obviously not conditioned well enough for this fight. Had it gone another round, Loiseau IMO would be the winner. Swick looked decent in the first two rounds though and did enough to win both. If Loiseau would've been careless, he could've been caught. He had a smart gameplan in being cautious. His problem was just being WAY TOO CAUTIOUS. He should've put more pressure on Swick in the first two rounds to make them close enough to go either way. I'm sure that if he had another chance at Swick that he would do things differently.
