    Joe Doerksen discusses Filho
    http://www.thefightnetwork.com/news_detail.php?nid=4438

    Doerksen video interview
    http://www.sherdog.com/videos/videos.asp?v_id=1230

    Filho's last fight was against Misaki in the Pride WW (183 lb) Grand Prix. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x11...o-filho_street
    http://bloodyelbow.com/story/2007/8/2/115739/2270

    He pulled out due to a knee injury after this fight and Misaki took his place in the finals that same night and beat an injured Denis Kang. Misaki had beaten Dan Henderson earlier in the tourny...but then he lost to Frank Trigg earlier this year. MMAmath doesn't work too well, but Misaki is still a solid fighter anyway you slice it...

    Luke at bloodyelbow talks about why Filho may not be a big hit in the US, despite being a great fighter.
    http://bloodyelbow.com/story/2007/8/2/114556/7457

    I see what he's saying, but he's a lot like Matt Hughes IMO. Hughes is a dominant wrestler but lackluster striking. Filho has dominant BJJ and but lackluster striking. Filho pulls armbars from all over the mat...which I'd prefer to see than Hughes' slams...

    Joe's only chance is to land a big shot standing IMO...I think he'll get dominated on the ground (and he's no joke on the ground!). Joe is tough to submit, but I think Filho will do it via armbar in the 2nd.

    Larson vs Condit should be a great fight too...Larson via 1st round KO

    This is going to be a great co-main event.

    Banuelos was featured on Tapout...you might remember him as Chuck Liddell's " " since he lives with him and Chuck pays him to clean the house and do laundry...

    Good night of fights...

    2/4 on my bets (-$2).

    I think Larson's elbow is screwed.

    Filho looked a little slow and lethargic...he wasn't breathing hard at all after the fight either.

    What a punch from Curran...props to Ledbetter for staying on his feet!!

    Filho looked dispassionate until he won.

    I think he took Joe lightly, although he did look in shape and he made weight easily (I read in an interview about 6 wks ago that he was 210 lbs)...

    It looks like he'll get the winner of Joe Riggs vs Mayhem Miller...

    I am tired of Riggs in his current state, bring on Miller.

    damn, you're think when Loretta Hunt posts something it would be pretty solid.

    haha did you see him walking to the cage? All his facial expressions are so stupid. He's trying to be something he's not. Shut up and fight.

    I like Mirko and Liddell, they get the job done. Im fine with Rampage's anticts, thats who he is. It just seemed Condit was trying to pretend to be some badass he's not.
