Seek And Destroy – UFC87

Published by SJ under General

Well only a week away from another exciting Ultimate Fighting Championship in UFC87 Seek And Destroy. I am really looking forward to the event and especially looking forward to the top 3 fights on the card in……

Welterweight Championship bout: Georges St. Pierre vs. Jon Fitch

World title fights sell themselves really but this one is definitely pretty even. St. Pierre’s name may sound a bitt poofy but rest assured this guy can fight the game and Jon Fitch ain’t no soft on either. After 8 fights in the UFC Fitch is still undefeated (a record) and I don’t think he is planning on coming home a loser. No idea who will win but it will be a war!

Lightweight bout: Kenny Florian vs. Roger Huerta

Another sooksy sounding name in Florian but his elbows have actually been surgically enhanced and incorporate steel plates to ensure he has the advantage in the elbow strike department. Huerta does exactly what his name suggests, he’s gonna get you in that cage, wait for them to lock it and then he’s gonna HURT-YA!!!

Heavyweight bout: Brock Lesnar vs. Heath Herring

Former armature wrestler and WWE heavy weight champion Lesnar steps into the cage again with much anticipation. He faces a tough challenge in the likes of Heath Herring who came within a bee’s willy of beating current UFC heavyweight champion Nogueira not so long ago. I am not sure how Herring expects to win but I can’t see it being by KO. Lesnars head is huge and he has pretty good concussion coping abilities as the attached botched move from his professional wrestling days shows. He jumps from the top rope, lands on his head and was still able to continue to work the match… freak.
