I'm very impressed with Manny! He controled the ground and had good standup. I was also impressed with Corey, I thought he would go out there and get absolutely deystroyed, he did better than I thought he would.
Yeah Diaz actually looked scared. Something I've never seen in a Diaz before. Hopefully Buddy Rowe will end up in one of the better camps. That dude hits hard.

and a very odd style. His size alone makes him a tough fight for anyone in the 155 div.

how does everyone think this incident between Diaz and Parisyan is going to play out on the next TUF?
Just a hunch....Gamburian will be fighting Diaz in the Semis. Diaz and Karo's tiff = automatic bad blood between Diaz and Manny. I think Louzon's toughest fight will be Gray. If Joe and Nate pull of their wins, my prediction for the final comes true.

Your right. I never thought someone would have the reach advantage like Tim Sylvia has at Heavy weight. Its just amazing. Since the smaller you get in weight classes the more evenly people should be matched physically, but Corey kills that rule totally. I think at 170 he could give Hughes fits, and at 155 he's going to give so many people trouble.

well you will probably here them in the same sentence a lot, well if its a list of members in miletech.
i read an article on jeremy stephens where he mentioned training at miletech headquarters with some of the miletech fighters, one of which was corey hill.
im really glad he found a home and i think you will hear big things from him, he was punishing nate on the stand up which i really didnt see happening since nate diaz basically went toe to toe with hermes franca and looked excellent. i would pay to watch corey fight any day of the week
also i figured manny was gonna beat matt wiman i just didnt think he was beat on wiman for 2 rounds in which he did. out of the 10 minutes of the fight there was like 2 minutes where matt wiman didnt look like a tool. what was up with those beavis and butthead punches he was throwing?

Hey I called Joe and Manny as the most impressive fighters after the first round, let's see if they end up in the finals... tough call, I'm tempted to give it to joe but manny looks incredibly strong for 155. I guess we'll see what happens in this next round.

My predictions for next week.......with the styles and fights
Nate vs Maynard...............Nate
Nate vs Manny....................Manny (tough call..if only 2 rounds...if 3 there is a better shot for Nate.....the same way Karo beat Nick...keep taking him down and holding him there)
Nate vs Lauzon..................Nate
Maynard vs Manny.............Maynard
Maynard vs Lauzon............Lauzon
Manny vs Lauzon................Lauzon

OK.......After observing the highlight video for next weeks Semi-finals i already know who will fight who.....it will be Nate vs Maynard and Manny vs Lauzon......
the reason i know this is because in the short 1 sec. clip when they show Nate in his corner waiting to fight they show part of the arm of his opponent,and when i paused using my DVR...there it was...Gray Maynard's tattoo on his inner left arm
those were the fights i wanted to see...so thats good news for me

Dana said that over the phone to Jens and BJ, and they didn't like it. I had a feeling it would change.
Good call Trapt
