I'm sure these guys are still trying to deal with some doorman somewhere who humped their girlfriends LOL! but yeah I seen one show where they were tanking through all these doors and there was one guy who elected to try to punch his way through the fooking lot of them hmmm yeah, personally I'd just have put my feet through the fookers but there ya go.... I think the best contest of 'I'm harder than you are' is the ultimate fighting tournaments :twisted: that sorts out the wannabe tuff guys! |

| Making Progress | Hey guys You want to talk abouit hard, then dont look further then Ian Freeman, in that show I doubt wether anyone would be able to beat him. Being a fan of MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) for about 6 years, I have grown up the likes of Royce Gracie, the Shamrocks, Belfort and Coutoure who fought the other night. These guys are tough, I believe that they are the pioneers of the MMA industry, all from the UFC. I went and watched UFC 38 Brawl at the Hall and met Ian Freeman, the guys is about 1" taller than me and weighed in at only 220lbs i reconed. He desimmated fast rising superstar Frank Mir, and was a great experience, but I would NOT want to get in the ring with any of these guys!! As or the other night, great to see an old timer get through to the finals. ______________________ "Living life at 18stone 10lbs is painful. Losing weight is a challenge.

It really is impressive, forget running through doors or trying to hold your breath under water, the guys who do well in this stuff are proper hard. I may be wrong here but didnt Royce Gracie have a brother 'Ricksen'? I was well impressed by him. I used to do kickboxing , dont reckon I last 5 seconds in the ring with those guys :cry: |

| Making Progress | Hey guys You are talking to a fan of almost 6 years here, I grew up with the Gracies. Rickson is one of the elder brothers and has been undefeated in the professional and amateur circuit. Unfortunately Steve, UFC and all the rest of the grappling shows are no longer being aired as there are no [plans to come back to the UK for atleast another year or so. Even though UFC 38 was almost sold out they have decided not to go global for a little while. If you want to see more then try www.ufc.tv www.sherdog.com On these sights you will find everything that you need about UFC, Pride, K1 etc... And the fight finder is superb. Hope it all helps! ______________________ "Living life at 18stone 10lbs is painful. Losing weight is a challenge.

| Illuminati | the whole gracie family seem to be fighters-have their own ju jitso style named after them-most are virtually undefeated(correct me if i`m wrong)pat smith (think thats his name)is my fave-visually a very exciting fighter,but gracie still kicked his ass in one of the finals-watched ken shamrock get a draw with gracie-shamrock should have won,but he did manage to draw bloodwhich was an an achievement in itself-imho-gracie is the master of defense 8) ______________________ einsteins mind was the key to all things...to understand more than to know. www.englishmuscle.co.uk www.extremenutrition.co.uk |
