1. Look at the fight again on youtube against Cro Cop and give me an "honest" appraisal. He ran man..
2. There is no denying that incredible size and strength. Oh yeah, glass jaw and no damn stamina to save his life, I agree. But i also believe he could power is way out of any armbar, kimura or anything else. His arms are the equivalent of legs..
Cro-cop "ran"????
Thats news to me mate....since when has intelligent fighting been "running". Tactics are very different to running. Also, tell me how Cro-cops punch was lucky...it was perfect tactics!! Watch the video again....Cro-cop throws a low kick, causing sapp to drop his guard from around his head...cro-cop see's the opening and takes Sapp out like the big useless heap of shit that he is...
YOu seem to be implying that cro-cp is some sort of coward for "running", as you say. Well, who would you have considered a coward after the fight was over?? Cro-cop, or Sapp who has his orbital bone smashed and refused to get up, tears streaming from his face.
As for Sapp killing Fedor with one punch...HA!!! Gimme a break man, Sapp is big and heavy and has heavy punches but he does not have what I would consider devestating punches. In many, many of his fights he lands punches which fail to have any effect.
Sometimes he will land a clean punch and knock his opponent out but any fighter, if they land a clean punch, is capable of knocking their opponents out. In reality, almost all the punches he throws are useless. They are heavy punches which will "push" his opponents back, as opposed to explosive lightning fast punches which have big knockout power. In addition, Sapp only has enough endurance to throw a handful of punches which have any power whatsoever. He gasses quick, and the remainder of his punches are worse than useless...they are funny.
You also state that sapp could power his way out of any armbar...bullshit. Why didnt he power his way out of Noguera's armbar then??? Nobody can "power" their way out of a well executed armbar...you may be able to use superior technique to get out of an armbar, but if you think you can sue raw strength to get out of a well executed armbar, then you are sadly mistaken.
Sapp was a freak show, who was entertaining for a while. But now, he's been clearly shown for the useless sack of shit that he is...zero heart, zero fighting abilities.

No, this isn't an issue because he has not fought in Pride since 02 and has never fought UFC obviously. He's been fighting for K-1 for the last 4-5 years. I always wanted to see what Fedor would do to that Silverback.
