What does everyone think about Bocek calling out Sot's after his win tonight? How do you think that fight would go?
That would be an awesome match up. Bocek's jits is top notch. But George has taken his game to a whole...n'other...level.
agreed... not only did he call him out, but asked to fight him in his own hometown of australia.. bocek's S mount to triangle was the sickest sub ive seen in quite some time(mma)Quote:

Doesn't Bocek train with Marcelo? last night was sick though and im surprised bc dustin has good jit from what ive seen
I think it would be awesome but may end up a stand fight
i think your right on the location of the event... my bad...Quote:

Then as much as much as it would be a great fight, George has been on a huge win streak and it should start to get him higher ranked guys to fight. The title is where the money is and its only fair he start getting some ranked fighters. I think down the road Bocek and him would be a great entertaining fight but George doesn't need to keep taking risk without cash... The UFC cuts guys for shit sometimes and he should be making money on cards fighting names... Just my opinion :)
Damn he " Scalped " my boy hazlett and called out george, I smell " Beef " being cooked
yeah, its kinda a no brainer... but here... allow me to make it look more complicated
the #1 guy has a fight coming up vs. the #2 guy so the #3 guy has a fight coming up against the #27 ranked fighter... after his win we should fight #30???? wait wtf?? (#1 vs#2)+ (#3 vs. #27)= #3 vs #30? i thin not....
Totally agree! George has paid his dues, its time for a run at the title. That would be a great fight, but its not going to help George get any closer to the title. Its all about being champion.Quote:

Hazlett showed a nice half guard, but Bocek made a good move during transition.
gotta watch that Canadian jiu-jitsu :) We can do rubber guard with snow shoes. love George but I'd be torn just because Canuks are often seen as under dogs and don't get the respect they deserve.
Man Aussie's are way bigger under dogs haha
he cant out box him and even if he takes him down hes going to eat a bunch of half guard sweeps or rubber guard
FOR SURE
her was just pumped after he won
I dunno if he was just pumped after the fight he had an interview with Ariel afterwards where he said he wants to fight George and will wait for the Siver fight to be over and done with or something like that.Quote:

Bocek just fought and lost to Jim Miller.
Honestly, given where we are now and if they're up for it relatively soon, I'd do Sot - Miller as a title eliminator. Unfortunately, the Siver fight ruins that, so not really sure where to go. Miller has put together just as good a streak as George, against probably slightly better overall competition, so I'd support him for a title shot. He also has the interesting situation of his only two losses being to Edgar and Maynard, so...I think that can be spun into something. Miller fights the winner of Maynard/Edgar, with Sot getting the title shot to follow if he beats Siver?
Seems fair, albeit not ideal. Am I forgetting anyone else with a really long win streak at lightweight?
I felt this was just a Bocek stab at getting himself some higher ranked opponents and better paying fights. He has not fought the same level of comp as George. He was completely smashed by Danzig a couple of years back and I don't think his game has come up to the level that he will outclass George in any aspect of the game.
I do think its awesome that Georges is getting a target on his back and people are realizing that he is one of the guys that you have to go through to get to the top of the division. 2011 is gonna be huge for SOTs and 10th Planet.
He does train with marcelo he was up here in NY for a month to train with Marcelo before this fight. his Jits is Sick and hes a great guy as far as everyone saying George basically would run through Bocek, im going to have to disagree i think it would be an awesome fight and im a big Sots fan and a big Bocek fan so i think it would be a great fight. Just my opinion, i might be bias but hey...Quote:
