is there a specific reason they call him the Axe murderer...
The guy looks like a person who has his kids chopped up in the freezer and his wifes body parts between the walls of his house.....

lol its only a nickname because of his aggression/ stare downs during fights. His nickname in brazil is mad dog cuz of his aggressive style...check out some of his fights and you'll see why he has that nick.

i never seen the brazilian guy fight!

^He used to be in Pride FC, which was a much better organization than the UFC until UFC bought it and since they have taken a lot of Pride's good fighter and it looks like Pride is probably dead.

Anyway, they've jsut signed Wandy, so it looks like the fight will happen soon.

Wandy will win this.

Wandy will win this.

This is my most anticipated fight after the CC V Fedor rematch (whenever that will be)

And the results will be Wandi with a TKO and CC with a head Kick TKO
my 2 fave fighters.

Cant wait till CC fights and kicks the SH%T out of Congo.

Actually, Wandy and Mirko are two of my fav fighters.

My most anticipated fights'd be:

Fedor Vs. CC
Shogun Vs. Fedor
Gonzaga Vs. CC

But there's heaps I can't think of right now.

Chuck has to fight Jardine. He needs two fights to get a title fight. It looks like if Chuck wins his fights, he's going to fight Wandy for the #1 contender spot. Then it's Shogun's turn for a title fight. He has one fight comming up soon, I think it's in ufc77. After that he'll probably get a title fight.

It's very interesting though, because Silva was the champ in Pride till recently, but Shogun never challenged because they're both from chute box and great friends. I wonder what will happen now that they're in the same organization again. It looks like wandy will get a title shot before Shogun, or maybe not, I'm not sure. It'll be interesting if they decide to fight, but I don't think they will. It will be an amazing fight! Here's a look into what it might look like:

Wandy Vs. Shogun (sparring)

Anyway, the LHW is amazingly tight. You have:

Jackson
Dan Henderson
Shogun
Wandy
Chuck Liddel

All of which can be the champ. They're all going to battle it out for the top spot. It's sad that only one will get it soon because I'm a huge fan of Wandy, Jackson, and Shogun. Good luck to all of them.

On other news, UFC is having trouble getting Fedor. Fedor wants to compete in a Combat Sambo (russian martial art) once a year, but the UFC doesn't want to allow that. That's what's holding up negotiations between the two parties. Fedor is likely to sign with K-1. K-1 is getting a lot of good ex-Pride fighters, and looks to be getting more competitive and many think it could become the next pride. One question though, cause I though K-1 was kickboxing... Has K-1 changed to mma?

Dude you obviously don't know what you are talking about my friend because I met Chick Iceman Liddel after the Rampage fight in LV. He is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet and very humble. We have something in common becasue we both went to the same university. People think Chick Liddel is an idiot or something like that but the guy is actually very smart. He graduated from Cal Poly University with a degree in accounting. I was in the same business school as him but I majoried in Finance.

I think the ICE MAN is going to rebound from that Rampage fight and win this one. I look forward to it when is the match guys?

Opps I thought he was tlaking about Chuck my bad on that one Arash lol. Hey when is this fight going to take place?

[Team Melli Fan]

chuck liddell owns...but ortiz is better.

[Sherwin]

chuck liddell owns...but ortiz is better.

Well Ortiz is 0-2 against Liddel so at least when those two meet for now Liddel owns Ortiz. This is no disrespect on Ortiz because he is still a very good fighter. Liddel is a very opportunistic fighter because he is patient, and waits for you to make a crucial mistake.

[persian boy]

Silva will win...quicker in hits and dodges, almost as much strength, younger, and hes also brazilian, lol
