I'll take Thompson here. Noons looked like poop in his last fight.

Well to be fair he was fighting a nightmare style matchup in Masvidal.

Nice. If Josh is healthy enough, he should outclass Noons thoroughly.

I'm gonna be routing for Josh but this fight could be tough for him.

Damn what is up with this sudden surge of clearance issues?

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 4:46 pm

Terry Martin and Brunson both come to mind immediately.

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 4:51 pm

Lame ass Ohio BULLSHIT.

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 4:54 pm

Yeah Brunson wasn't cleared because of contact lenses? WTF? There has to be a decent percentage of fighters who use them.

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 4:56 pm

Card is dying just like Strikeforce is...

MAIN CARD (Showtime)

Champ Miesha Tate vs. Ronda Rousey (for female bantamweight title)
K.J. Noons vs. Josh Thomson
Paul Daley vs. Kazuo Misaki
Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza vs. TBA
Lumumba Sayers vs. Scott Smith

PRELIMINARY CARD (Showtime Extreme)

Alexis Davis vs. Sarah Kaufman
Caros Fodor vs. Pat Healy
Ryan Couture vs. Conor Heun
Roger Bowling vs. Brandon Saling

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 4:58 pm

They have a UFC card the day before right? Let's do some mixing and matching here. They said right after the merger that UFC guys going to SF is no thing at all. Get it done.

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 5:12 pm

Why the fuck is Scott Smith on the main card instead of Fodor-Healy?

Dana likes him for TUF, Lorenzo likes him for the way he fights. Zuffa likes him.

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 5:14 pm

He doesn't fight. He's a punching bag. Worst fighter on the Zuffa roster

Name me one fighter that can head butt a fist better then Scott Smith?

Subject: Re: Josh Thomson-KJ Noons at March SF Tue Feb 21, 2012 5:23 pm

This Strikeforce card went from one of the best cards in awhile, to absolutely garbage very quickly...

His punch on a gassed Cung Le is literally the only 20 seconds of offense he has had over the last 2.5 years in two fights vs Le, Diaz, Daley, and Saffedine

He kept his chin up and took it like a man. The way Lorenzo likes it.

Agreed but I think Rousey-Tate will bring the eyes no matter what. Its getting pretty hyped. They need to get this Noons situated sorted out though. Can't lose two fights

Cause Fodor and Healy are straight grinders, while Smith is a KO waiting to happen, one way or the other.
