TRAILER

[Weirdo]

Jeg kan sagtens se Kampmann vinde over Condit/Hendricks!
GSP.. not so much, medmindre han har glemt hvordan man ligger på folk i hans pause

[PerN]

Condit vs Kampmann 2!!! GO!

Den er jeg fandme frisk på at se, 1´eren er blandt de bedste kampe jeg har set overhovedet. Ville iøvrigt stadig også vildt gerne se Kampmann vs Hardy (i England), men den ligger sgu ikke rigtigt i kortene mere.

Eller hvad med Kampmann vs Penn, han ledte da efter en udfordring interessant nok, til et comeback

[TheWulf]

Penn skal møde Rory Macdonald.

[PerN]

Mental note: Check med wulfen, før du foreslår mærkelige match ups

Hvem skal Pete Sell møde næste gang ham har nettet glemt

[TheWulf]

Pete Sell skal møde JDS til august nu hvor Cain er ude et par måneder.

Kampmann er vel også for højt oppe i divisionen til BJ, tror Condit og Hendricks er de eneste der gir mening Af dem tror jeg han har bedst chance mod Hendricks, Hendricks minder en del om Sanchez og Ellenberger (wrestling og hooks) og dem slog Kampmann jo begge to

BJ ville nu stadig være i top10. Hans kampe i WW har de sidste 3 været: KO mod Hughes, draw mod Fitch og et tab mod Nick Diaz, som kampen efter kæmpede om nr 1 contenderspot. Men ja, han er for langt nede i divisionen og passer perfekt for Rory - en tradionel upcoming vs legend fight.

Hendricks er stadig ikke et godt matchup for Kampmann. At han slog Ellenberger gør det stadig ikke til et godt matchup.

Hendricks er ikke helt enig i, at Condit vs. Kampmann er en god idé:

“Carlos Condit, he said he wanted to fight Kampmann. He called out Kampmann, and he’s done a couple of interviews where he hasn’t even mentioned my name as a top contender. I’m the No. 1 contender, and if he’s going to be fighting anyone, I think it should be me.”

“We have an interim belt, and interim belts are for one reason: for people to be able to still fight for a title. I feel like I’ve done everything I could to get that No. 1 spot, and somebody else is keeping it from me. I don’t get upset about many things, but I feel like I’ve done what I could to put me where I’m at today. The good Lord has blessed me. The fans have been awesome, and I’ve gone out there and done everything I could to put me in a situation for the belt. Carlos Condit is in my way. He really is. If I can’t fight him, and he won’t fight other people, now who do I fight?”

“I think you have to earn respect, and I think I did. For someone to sit there and bypass me like that, it’s like he’s saying that I’m not even good enough to be in his realm, and I think I am. I think I have what it takes to get in there and to win. I want that chance.”

SUNRISE, Fla. – Two welterweights to recently emerge as the No. 3 and No. 4 competitors in the division – who sits where is one for debate – have a final hurdle to clear before getting a title shot.

UFC president Dana White announced Friday that the promotion is targeting a fight between Johny Hendricks (13-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) and Martin Kampmann (20-5 MMA, 11-4 UFC) for UFC 154, possibly as the co-main event to an expected headliner between undisputed champ Georges St-Pierre and interim champ Carlos Condit.

UFC 154 is expected for Nov. 17 at Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

White made the announcement following "UFC on FX 3: Johnson vs. McCall," which took place Friday at BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Fla.

A source close to the event told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that the welterweight fight represents a contingency plan of sorts in case St-Pierre, who's still recovering from a torn ACL, is unable to fight at the November event.

In any event, the matchup settles a question left in the air by by logjam currently holding up the 170-pound division. Hendricks claimed his top spot by besting Josh Koscheck at "UFC on FOX 3: Diaz vs. Miller," which brought his current win streak to four. Kampmann, meanwhile, continued a stunning career resurgence with a TKO of Jake Ellenberger at The Ultimate Fighter Live Finale.

Both had reasonable claim to meet the winner of the title unification bout planned for November. Hendricks had recently seized upon Condit's recent comment that a fight with Kampmann would be fine if St-Pierre's injury kept him out longer than expected.

But now, the two will fight to determine the No. 1 contender.

Interview med Condit om muligheden for en kamp med Martin.

[a2zinck]

Det kunne være awesome med Kampmann vs. Hendricks som co-main event til GSP vs. Condit. November (UFC 154) er bare aaalt for langt væk, så måske Kampmann bør møde Condit inden, men så bliver Hendricks jo pludselig til overs.

[a2zinck]

“At first I thought maybe it was a little bit early. Because I don’t like early stoppages at all. I like letting them go as much as possible. I thought it looked a little early, but when I saw the replay, it didn’t look like [Ellenberger] was doing much defense. He was just kind of curling up on his side. I don’t think it would have been much different if [Mazzagatti] gave him a couple of extra seconds. I had plenty of elbows left.”

“I would have been pissed if [Mazzagatti] had tried to stop the fight on my first knockdown. That was just a flash knockdown. I was still going. I was still moving as soon as I landed on my ass. I wasn’t out. I think he did a good job letting it go there. It sucks for me to hear people complain about it because I feel I was in the best position possible. I would have happily let the fight go on for a little bit longer because [Ellenberger] was just turned up on his side and he wasn’t really doing any defense at all. I don’t like when people try to take away from my victory.”

Hendricks om lange udsigter til titelkamp:

"I feel like I fought the best guys at 170 in our division and I've won, but it looks like I have to get through one more person, and that's just the way it goes. You can either sit here and complain about it or you can sit there and do your best to win it. Of course you're disappointed. You get promised a title shot and then something happens and it doesn't happen. But then again, that's the nature of this business. There's always good fights going on, you just have to win each one ... He's (Kampmann) had some good fights. He's lost rounds but ends up winning. That's who Kampmann is. You have to go in there and finish him. My next goal is to do that."

[a2zinck]

Kampmann er - naturligvis - klar til at udfordre Condit's interim bælte:

“Sounds great to me, I’m down, I want to fight Carlos. I want to get that title. Carlos, he wants that rematch; he’s told me so himself. Of course now that he’s got the belt, I’d be more than happy to give it to him. It’s a perfect opportunity for me to step in. I can’t do much besides waiting and heal up. If it’s a title fight, I’ll take that on any day. I can’t do much, I can’t change stuff how everything’s going to go in the UFC. The UFC makes all the decisions in the end.”
