Fedor Emelianenko Vs Brett Rogers

Fedor Knocks Out Brett Rogers.....Read More

This fight takes place on Saturday November 7th. Fedor Emelianenko, in my opinion is the best MMA fighter in the world. He has the best all round skills. Many people, including many experts also consider Fedor to be the best out there. But we must not forget,  Fedor Emelianenko is only human. He has been rocked by punches on a few occasions, but credit where credit is due, he has always found a way to win, and that's what makes Fedor so good. He has great power, superb wrestling and submission skills, and also never gives up.

Brett Rogers
Theres one word that springs to mind when i think about Brett Rogers. Powerhouse. This guy is seriously strong and packs some super punching power, and when you consider the size of the gloves worn in MMA fighting you can see why he has so many knockouts under his belt. He has the same sort of body type as Brock Lesnar, the huge chest and torso, he is also a very big guy standing 6 foot 5". Brett Rogers is not very comfortable on the ground, he is more of a stand "toe to toe" and slug it out type of fighter.

Fedor Emelianenko
I have been reading a lot lately about what the press have been saying about Fedor, things like he's slipping, getting old. He was in trouble against Andre Arlovski etc..Personally i think everyone saying this stuff is just trying to find faults with Fedor. Look at the way all the fights ended, mostly all KO's or submissions. Their making a big deal about Fedor getting caught a few times. This is MMA, people do get caught with blows, it's how they fight back after they get caught with shots, that's the main thing.

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Brett Rogers - Who Wins?
I beleive if Fedor fights smart and takes Brett Rogers to the ground, we will see Fedor submit Rogers pretty easily. If however, Fedor decides to stand and trade punches with Rogers, we could see Fedor have a very tough night, and Brett Rogers hits so hard that i wouldn't rule out Fedor getting knocked out. I think Fedor is too smart to stand and trade with Rogers, he knows that's Rogers only chance of winning. Fedor will take this fight to the ground and submit Rogers quite easily. Getting Rogers on the floor might take a bit of hard work though, he is a strong guy with good take down defense. Fedor will have to tire him out a little first.

This is Fedors first fight in the cage, so this could have an effect on Fedor also. But Fedor lives for this, i bet he has been doing many hours of training inside a cage to prepare for this fight.

Prediction: Fedor by submission.

Let me know what you think.

David Haye Vs Nikolay Valuev

David Haye Vs Nikolay Valuev

Click Here For the David Haye Vs Nikolay Valuev Weigh In

David Haye has arrived in Germany today, with just under a week to go until he faces the biggest test of his boxing career. He looked very tired and said he had been up since very early to catch the flight. Haye also did not finish training until 1am, then having to eat food etc. Haye still was nice enough to fight the sleep deprivation to let the press interview him, and he also signed some autograpths for the fans.

Ok, with that said back to the fight. David Hayes trainer has said Haye will try to knock out Valuev, thats what his aim is. Adam Booth said that Haye always goes for the knockout and this fight will be no different.

Personally i think this is the wrong kind of tactics to use against Nikolay Valuev. He has never been stopped, he has never even been down. I was watching a video on Youtube the other day titled "Valuev Can Take It", and i must say, Valuev was taking some brutal shots to the face (this was earlier in his career when he had less experience and less boxing skills), but he did not go down! Valuev can take some serious punches. I can not see David Haye knocking Valuev out. David Haye has power, but it should not be overated.

With David Haye going for a knock out, Haye could actually punch himself out and get knocked out himself. This is what i beleive will happen. Haye is too trigger happy, he wants to trade punches with the beast, if he does that will be the end for David Haye. He needs to fight with controlled aggression, something Haye does not really do very well. If Haye does not fight the type of fight tactics that the legend Evander Holyfield used, but with more aggression, and being prepared to take a few more risks he will lose. Saying that, i don't think Haye could fight that fight if he wanted to: Haye does not have fast footwork, not when it comes to jumping in and out. When he has fought that way in the past he has tired very quickly, and that was against opponents half the size of Valuev.

Valuev is just too big to stand in front of and trade punches with. David Haye does not have the chin to take Valuevs big tree trunk arms in the face. David Haye does not have the chin, stamina, or ring craft of even an older Evander Holyfield, and i think maybe David  Haye knows this, and that is why he is going to go all out for the knockout. The other reason being that he knows he wont get the decision is Germany if the fight goes the distance. Haye is playing a very dangerous game, could he be the first man to knock Valuev out? Well, this is heavyweight boxing, anything can happen, but i think the chances are slim.

My prediction for this fight is: David Haye comes out strong, trading with Valuev for the first 4 - 5 rounds. Valuev gets rocked but does not go down. Valuev uses his weight to lean on David Haye through the next few rounds, landing his own punches on Hayes suspect head and chin. By around the 9th - 10th David Haye is all out of steam, Valuev knocks Haye out through Haye's sheer exhaustion. Either that or Haye's corner refuse to let Haye come out for the end part of the fight.

I would love David Haye to win by KO to be honest. But i can't let my heart rule my head. If David Haye, from the start of the fight goes for the knockout, he will lose this fight by either KO, or just being so tired he's falling all over the place and the referee stops the fight.

Just to let you know, the fight starts at about 9pm, or just after 9pm UK time. I beleive coverage starts at 8pm though. Don't miss it!

**Quick Update**

David Haye's camp are not happy. The mind games have started. Valuev's promoter has put the Haye camp in a hotel too far out of town, far away from anything, shops, people etc. David Haye was not happy about this and Adam Booth (Haye's trainer) had to find them another Hotel.

Carl Froch Vs Andre Dirrell

Carl Froch Vs Andre Dirrell

This much awaited fight is almost with us. Carl Froch Vs Andre Dirrell is quite an unpredictable fight to predict. Carl Froch is strong, good power puncher, and can take a good shot. On the other hand, he is pretty slow and sluggish with his footwork and movement, something that slick  boxer Andre Dirrell thinks he can capitalize on. And so do i, at least for the first 6 rounds. But when Dirrell slows down i think Carl Froch will most probably knock him out.

It really all depends on how Froch handles the sharp boxing skills of Dirrell because as we all know, Carl Froch was losing the fight with Jermain Taylor by quite a few rounds before he knocked Taylor out. Froch was lucky that Taylors stamina was lacking for going the distance of a 12 round fight. Basically Carl Froch got schooled in terms of boxing skills by Taylor. Froch was very lucky to win that fight So, will Dirrell be able to use his boxing skills and ring craft for 12 rounds..If he can he wins, simple as that.

Andre Dirrell has been rocked a few times with punchers that hit nowhere near as hard as Carl Froch. Also Dirrells level of opposition is not in the same class of Froch's. And there is an experience factor with Dirrell also, not to mention he is fighting in Carl Froch's home town of Nottingham, UK. Everything is against Dirrell in this fight, the only positive he has is he decent boxing skills and good movement.

But with all the negative factors in mind, i think Dirrell will be seeing stars at some point in the fight. He will lose by KO, because he can't run all night, so at some point he will have to stand and fight. This means getting caught with some big punches from Froch, then i think it's all over.

Let me know what you think..

**Quick Super Six Update**

Arthur Abraham Knocks out Jermain Taylor in the 12 Round!. Abraham was ahead anyway and was landing some hard shots in every round. But in the 12th he threw a wide hook, then a straight down the middle that connected flush in the face of Taylor and made him hit the canvas like a sack of spuds! Abraham fought a great fight, he covered up when he needed to, and he unloaded when the times were right.

Mikkel Kessler was ringside, he looked shocked at what he had seen. It looked like he was thinking "Do i really have to fight this guy"!!

Carl Froch Retains his WBC Title against Andre Dirrell. This was a terrible fight, very boring. Carl looked amatuerish, and was basically running after Dirrell all night. Dirrell just ran all night. It was a very close fight which Dirrell could of won if he didn't just run and run all night long.. The judges obviously gave it to Carl Froch because he was coming forward all night trying to make a fight of it. Very close fight, which, in my opinion Carl Froch was lucky to win. He was lucky the fight was at home to be honest.

But it's onwards and upwards. Froch will fight Kessler next, which should be a fight with much more action then this one. Andre Dirrell takes on Arthur Abraham.

Prize Fighter: Audley Harrison Vs Danny Williams

Prize Fighter: Audley Harrison Vs Danny Williams

The Prize Fighter competition is on tonight, and most of the talk is about the chances of the much anticipated grudge match between Audley Harrison and Danny Williams taking place. Will they meet up in the final? We will have to wait and see. Their chances are pretty good though as there is not many boxers in Prize Fighter that have fought at a consistently high level.

Audley Harrison and Danny Williams are 1 win each with each other, so if they meet up it would be the final showdown. Let's hope they are in good shape and put on a good fight, that's IF they meet in the final.

Who Wins?

Well, that really is any ones guess. Audley Harrison has not looked good lately, losing i think four of his last 8 fights. But when he is on form and mentally prepared(very rare), he can produce a decent domestic level performance.

Danny Williams has serious problems with self belief and confidence. If he turns up believing himself and remains focused on the job in hand, he has the ability to beat most heavyweights on the world scene. Sadly he doesn't turn up when it's really really needed. This is what makes this fight so exciting. Which Danny Williams will turn up...Personally i hope the focused, unfazed one. We will see tonight. May the best man win.

Floyd Mayweather Dominates Juan Manuel Marquez

Floyd Mayweather Dominates Juan Manuel Marquez

Floyd Mayweather Dominates Juan Manuel Marquez to make a spectacular comeback. With Floyd being out of the ring for almost 2 years, his comeback fight was even more impressive. Credit where credit is due, Floyd won every round against Marquez and looked very fast and sharp in the process. He even knocked Marquez down in the second round, and looked like he could have stepped up the pace numerous times to end the fight.

Going on how close the fights between Pacman and Marquez were, Pacmans in trouble if he fights Mayweather. Saying that, i think Pacman has something that Marquez doesn't.............FREDDY ROACH! Roach is one of the best trainers in the world, and the best trainer in terms of tactics to use in order to win fights. If anyone could make the game plan for Pacman to beat Mayweather it is Freddy Roach.

I think Floyd Mayweather Vs Juan Manuel Marquez confirms that Floyd is the P4P Number One fighter in the world. Floyds skills are superior to anyone else's, even Pacmans. Floyds accuracy, sharpness, and footwork would be too much for Pacman i think..Let's hope Freddy Roach can work his magic! I would love Pacman to beat Mayweather.

Many people hate Mayweather because he's so cocky, and i can see what they mean, but hey, he backs it up every time. Talks the talk and walks the walk. Superb domination by Floyd Mayweather Jr. I would love to see him fight Cotto or Mosley, there more his size and weight.
