I'm looking for the classic McCarty/Lemieux and Vernon-Osgood/Roy fights.  Any other Red wings fights too.  Like Red Wings and Blues have some good ones.

try going to a local sports shop.  those fights were great.  i have a copy of the mccarty-lemieux fight on tape. i taped it and saved it for future viewing pleasure.   the vernon-roy and osgood-roy fights are great.  try looking online under ebay or try going on the wing website.  good luck.  they have videos of the fights but they have to be special ordered.

I have been in 4 hockey fights and I'll say this: any spot on your head can be a weak spot because you can't block it.  I have knocked-out and have been KO'ed with a single shot to the chin.  It's hard to put into words - it's not that everything goes black, but now I understand where the phrase "punch drunk" comes from.  I suddenly felt like I was 3 sheets to the wind and couldn't see straight.  But overall the toughest part is holding on to the guy that wants to knock out your chicklets.

Pride fighting. from time to time you can catch it on fox sports next and the dvds are relatively cheap. The skill level of the fighters in Pride is insanely higher than the UFC. Its really not even close. The matches are more exciting and the rules are similar except for in Pride you can stomp and soccer kick when your opponent is on the ground. I really can't stress how much better the competition there is. Any of the top 4 guys from each of their weight classes could come here and destroy the UFC champs in the same class.

I also have just looked into this. I found out that Kimo beat Pat by submission. These fights are almost impossible to get on DVD where i live, i guess you have the same problem. Glad to see more UFC fans out there!

I would have liked to see that one.  I have always been a huge fan of boxing and Marvin Hagler was my favorite.  Geeze, I guess I would have to go with the man Marvin to win that fight.  I even named my cat after Marvin.  lol

okay, i just answered your eastern conference question and was hoping you put this one up too....\nk...well, the oilers beat an over-rated red wings team, impressively none the less; and then a sharks team that i was convinced would be in the cup, possibly winning it all...the ducks played a spirited series vs. the flames, and then absolutely wrecked the avalanche...it seems like a closer battle then one would have guessed at the beginning of these playoffs, but i will get to the point-this ducks team seems vaguely familiar to the ducks team who almost took the cup against the devils a couple of years ago...so i'll give u this- ducks in 6... but a very good six

Moon, I'll have to get back to you on this one. My younger brother and I are currently searching out a local watering hole (likely a sports bar instead of our usual British pub) that will have the satellite feed of the Sabres-Flyers game, which is NOT being shown on OLN here. :(\n\nIf we're in luck finding a place to watch our glorious Sabres thrash the hated flyers (again), that's where we'll be and I shall give you a full report later. In the meantime, I'll try to answer your follow-up questions accordingly...\n\nYes, I definitely prefer watching important games like this with family and friends (this was of course much easier to do when we all lived back in WNY). We really love our Sabres (hockey) and Bills (football) and REALLY get into the games, whether we're there in person or watching on telly.\n\nEating and drinking invariably consists of pizza and beer but can also be nachos and beer (chicken wings and beer only works when I'm with nonvegetarian friends, as most of my siblings are now vegetarian but I am not). Basically, the menu is unhealthy -- but very yummy -- junk food and BEER! ;)\n\nGame day rituals include wearing the team colours, whether a replica jersey, t-shirt, sweatshirt, cap, whatever (no face painters amongst my group but it would be amusing if anyone ever decided to do that, lol). All rituals are more significant if actual game attendance is involved but, alas, that is not an option as we are approximately 400 miles away from our beloved Sabres.\n\nWe celebrate every goal and every win as if we're at the game (which means very loudly!), with the most significant win being the series-clinching victory (the Sabres are up 2-0 over the flyers and need two more wins to clinch the series and advance to the next round). If the Sabres were actually to win the Stanley Cup, well, everything else in my life would have to be put on hold (including my bloody job) as the celebration would continue for days and days, doubtless including a trip home to Buffalo to join the Cup parade and celebrate with friends and fam back there, as well. Oh, if only... :)\n\nThanks for the well wishes (and the question) and I will update you later on what happened with watching the game (and the result, of course).\n\nGO SABRES!!!\n\nUpdate: Okay, well, as you likely know by now, our Sabres lost to the hated flyers, 4-2 (sweeps aren't too common in a best-of-seven series), so it may be just as well that we were unable to find a place to watch the game. This is very definitely not a hockey town. The good news is that Friday's game will be televised and I feel very confident the Sabres will avenge this temporary setback and crush the goons in front of their evil and hateful fans (philadelphia is by far the worst sports city with the worst sports fans on the face of the earth!). Once again...\n\nGO SABRES!!!

The NHL is thriving and has never been better! Attendance is up! TV ratings are up! Everything is up!\n\nYou sound like a dinosaur fan lamenting the "glory days" when no-talent thugs ruled the game and bench-clearing brawls were a nightly occurrence. I found that to be abject and embarrassing! All it did was made the NHL look like some bush league where professional wrestling fans and other such losers could go to swill bear, scream obscenities and pick fights in the stands. No thanks!\n\n*Update: I'm glad we had our little offsite IM exchange, bugman, as I think we understand each other better now. We might not be on the same page, but we both love the game. And I promise you it is only going to get better! Go Sabres!

I think this is a site where you can match up any team from any era against whoever you want.  The database will produce a boxscore for your game and all the appropriate stats.  Pretty cool actually, but I got bored of it after half an hour or so.  Matched up the 73 Washington Capitals with the 78 Canadiens and got a 23-1 result for the Habs.

UFC is hard to predict.  One punch KO's and quick tap outs make it tough to predict.  Franklin VS. Loiseau I would have to say Franklin because of the skill but Loiseau can knock him out at any moment.  BJ Penn is having a tough come back fight.  I am picking BJ Penn just because I am a big fan.  He looks in good shape but if he gases out St Pierre will eat him alive.

Are you kidding, Moon? The Buffalo Sabres have been my team since their inception. I was only 6 when they made their NHL debut in 1970. Gilbert Perreault was my childhood hero growing up in those snowy Buffalo winters I recall so fondly. Erm, those same winters become less fun as one ages, I can tell you. lol...\n\nAlthough I've not lived there in many a winter I remain steadfastly loyal to the Sabres and have thoroughly enjoyed this exciting comeback season and playoffs -- and we're not finished yet! Although we lost to favoured Ottawa last night, we're still up 3-1 in the series and I believe we'll finish them off on Saturday (Monday at latest).\n\nAs for who their best players are, please bear in mind that these talented young Sabres are a team with a capital T. They are something of a no-name cast who outwork, outskate and outhustle every team they face. I adore this club! The consensus best players are: Ryan Miller (their exceptional rookie goaltender), Daniel Briere (co-captain), J.P. Dumont (Briere's linemate and close friend), Jochen Hecht (3rd member of that line and the team's best defensive forward), Chris Drury (the other co-captain), Maxim Afinogenov (best and fastest skater and playmaker) and their younger future star players like Tim Connolly, Ales Kotalik, Derek Roy and Brian Campbell. I'm leaving players out because, by rights, I should just name the entire team. It's just an amazing group of players (and coaches) who get along great and support each other on and off the ice. I LOVE this freaking team and, baby, we are going ALL THE WAY!\n\nLET'S GO BUF-FA-LO!!! \n\nP.S. Thank you for asking! :)

none of these games are on the level that i saw a tape of and ONE LIVE..\n\nThe tape a few years ago with the AHL affilaites of the Senators and Flyers one of the goalies literally skated across the rink and did a perfect swan dive over the pile and took on the opposing goalie. The end result was about four players LEFT COMBINED on the bench to finish the game (which didn't happen as another brawl ended the game) I think that is the current AHL penalty minute record these two teams HATE each other. \n\nThe live one. ECHL South Carolina Stingrays and legend Andy Beezeau took a hit behind the net and started the minor fight there but he was yapping all the way to the penalty box and kept right on yapping as the other player was sent to his side of the box to "cool off" Beezeau kept on yapping and literally and suddenly snapped went across his side of the box past the scorers table (the penalty box was seperated by ice officials with a door on each side) and fought him again INSIDE HIS penalty box which stopped only when both players fell back onto the ice  (Beezeau was suspended for the rest of the season but boy that WAS something to see)

Ric ~\n        What's up my Brother? No matter what Herenton brings to this bout, it won't be enough. The very last thing to go on a fighter is his punch. He can walk on his heels, he can talk with slurred speech and he might not be able to remember what day of the week it is, but believe me he can still punch. Nobody puts Ali on his seat that can not punch yesterday or 40 years ago, whatever they can punch.\n\n       Legendary fighter, Packy McFarland was retired from boxing for over thirty years he and his wife were walking home from St Pats Church in Joliet, Illinois when they were approached by three young men demanding money, Packy went into his wallet and gave them everything he had, but that wasn't enough the young men demanded his wife's wedding ring. Packy said "Boys, you picked the wrong bull today." and cleaned the street with the three of them breaking ones jaw and knocking the other two out until the Police arrived.\n\n     Joe is looking at the bout as a exhibition of sorts and if Willie thinks he's going to rough house old Joe, then Willie is in for a rude awakening and when he wakes up, I'm sure every one will tell him "How well he tried"\n\n    Thanks for the question Ric, it's great to have you back.

The Redwings have really no choice but to keep Legace in goal.  Osgood is injured and Howard does not thave much game experience let alone playoff experience.  Legace can't be the total reason the Wings are playing lousy.  He has been very average and needs to step up his game but he needs some offensive help as well. I do feel the Wings need to be hungrier at playoff time and maybe the President's Trophy is more of a curse than a blessing.  When you have your division/conference wrapped up so early hard to keep the competitive edge.  Keep the faith they have two games to go and stranger things have happened in the playoffs!

Fight fan I already gave you my thoughts on Rampage vs Lindland contest but you see, these previous two answers are exactly what I'm talking about. Most people here (just like these two motherf******) are totally ignorant of MMA. They've seen two UFC fights and all of a sudden they are all big experts and they all know how UFC is so great and so much better than Pride, how Pride fighters suck etc. etc. etc.... and basically what they know and say is bulls***. UFC has some excellent fighters, no question about that, but it is also so incredibly overrated and that's why I don't really like it.\n\nP.S.\nJust a reminder: as we have already established, on July 22. Rampage is going to break The Law (most likely that is).
