Guest Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 I doubt Sonnen would find it hard to find a 6 foot 6 guy to spar with. He will use the same guy he used for Silva. The Snake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markyosullivan Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Got to say was a pretty nice KO from Josh in his fight. Here's hoping that he'll be facing Uriah next. Team Jones Clint Hester Josh Samman (W) Bubba McDaniel Gilbert Smith Colin Hart (W) Adam Cella Dylan Andrews Team Sonnen Luke Barnatt (W) Uriah Hall (W) Zak Cummings Tor Troeng Jimmy Quinlan Kevin Casey Kelvin Gastelum (W) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markyosullivan Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Fight 6 (Jones Pick) Clint Hester vs Jimmy Quinlan I'm really surprised by this pick from Jones, thought he would've wanted an easier fight for Clint, don't think Zak is as good as Jimmy. Jimmy has a great record as a grappler however Clint is a very good striker. Wanted to see them both win and get through to the QFs so it's a shame one has to lose now. If Jimmy gets this to the ground he's going to win this one imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markyosullivan Posted March 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 in the commercial jimmy got it to the ground but Clint was landing VERY big shots on him Could go either way. Heard that Jimmy struggled to get MMA fights because of his record in grappling competitions. Though wasn't Clint not a very good boxer?

Face Kicker Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Chael's words of wisdom are awesome. No wonder is more fun to watch than jones. yeah he might be the best coach so far. definitely has a career in it after he's done fighting, if he wants it.

Guest Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 yeah he might be the best coach so far. definitely has a career in it after he's done fighting, if he wants it. The guy can do almost anything he wants. HE is a great coach. But he is also the best tv personality to work on MMA. FOX is supposed to be chomping at the bit to get him when he retires. He is a natural in the studio covering the events and breaking down the fights and hyping the fights. I think he is better at that than coaching. He is more of a motivational speaker on TUF because there isnt time to really teach them anything. But he is pretty good at game planning and fight match ups. But there is more to coaching than that. But im sure he is good at though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minark Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 sonnen and stann are really good at covering events I agree completely. I think out of everything I've seen Sonnen do, fighting is what he's the worst at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 I agree completely. I think out of everything I've seen Sonnen do, fighting is what he's the worst at. I would have to disagree. I would say he worse at being a politician. Although i think he wouldnt be a bad elected official. When you get forced out by the police, or as he puts it "Leave office in handcuffs". That has to be considered an epic failure. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedsRule Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Clint is a great boxer, but iirc he is only like 3-3 as a pro boxer. His takedowns looked good to get into the house, but obviously not on Quinlan's level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
