What would make Mac "for real" in your opinion?
from the past couple days...
Gabriel Gonzaga gets a le shot with Tim Sylvia because Vera didn't re-sign in time...
and Matt Hughes vs Chris Lytle...trying to get Hughes back on the winning track obviously...
also Rich Franklin (#5 Middleweight)* vs. Jason MacDonald...we'll see how "for real" the "TUF Killer" is...
-Jon Fitch (#7 Welterweight)* vs. Luigi Fioravanti
-Karo Parisyan (#5 Welterweight)* vs. TBA
-Mike Swick vs. TBA
-Assuerio Silva vs. TBA
Always good to see Fitch, Swick, and Karo on a card. I'd like to see a better opponent for Fitch though...he's really under-rated and never gets any airtime!

What would make Mac "for real" in your opinion?
I like Mac. Someone made the comment that he is y with his comments about being a stepping stone. Well, he was just telling the truth. He doesn't have the fame of the TUF fighters, and I think his wins show the novice MMA fan that there are plenty of guys who haven't been on TUF who have just as much experience and talent.
That being said, he won't beat Rich. Mac obviously isn't a standup fighter, and Rich won't make the mistakes that Herman and Leben did on the ground.
Hughes vs Lytle will be a damn good match if it happens, and a big gut check for Matt. He will need to win convincingly, which I think he can, but Leben is no joke.
A respectable showing against Franklin...
I like MacDonald (pulled for him against Leben and Herman) but I think he'll be thoroughly dominated...
isn't vera the only mexican in the UFC?
If you mean Hispanic person, no, not even close. Have you watched a UFC recently?
If you mean Brandon Vera, no i think he is half filipino half italian.
Diego is prob the best known.
That le would go to Ortiz, methinks.
Welcome to the MMA forum...try not to make more idiotic comments like this in the future...

I stand corrected.
Wow, I'm not suprised that no one else knew that though, TX E is very knowledgeable about MMA.
IMO I think Diego is prob still right up there.
True...surely EVERYBODY was online during that 2 hr window...![]()
Oh no! Someone's feelings were hurt, AGAIN!

OK TX E, seems like someone (I'm not mentioning any names so no one starts crying) doesn't want anybody to recognize you and your input.

Hardly have my feelings hurt...it was just another comment by you that made absolutely no sense really...

You didn't know who Diego Sanchez was and I made no sense??![]()

Once again Leonard, you show that Kori & LJ can make a better choice for moderator for the MMA forum like TX Equilibrium. That is, IF we get one. With your repeated kiddie comments & attacks on others you have shown why you are the obviously NOT the choice and the reason why we may not get one.![]()

Congrats Leonard, keep screwing us.
LOL...THIS was your dumb comment...
Who is this Diego guy anyway?![]()
I was completely joking about being a moderator...I wouldn't be able to resist screwing with you if I was...honestly.
I'm the reason we may not get a forum? Look around at who's bringing a decent portion of the latest MMA info to this place...sure, keep thinking that because I don't like you...![]()
Why are you calling me TX Equilibrium, Dio?![]()
Now cut it out you two. You were cohabitating peacefully for a couple of days.
Also, I don't think an MMA forum will need a mod if we stick to the general rules of Spurstalk. If we do get one, I'd just like to see us not make 2,000 threads about the same subject like they do on Sherdog (or the Spurs section of this forum). All UFC 68 related comments should go in the UFC 68 thread, and so on. But that's just my opinion.

LOL...don't question Dio!! You're officially "TX E" now...![]()
Yea, I avoided him for a couple days...
Of course we don't need a mod...further proof that I was completely joking around about it...
