    Default UFC 81 Terry Martin vs Marvin Eastman?

    UFC 81: Terry Martin vs. Marvin Eastman (Exclusive) at UFC blog for UFC news, results, videos, rumors, fights, pics and tickets — MMAmania.com
    hard-hitting Terry Martin (16-3) will look to get back on the winning track at UFC 81: “Breaking Point” against veteran Marvin Eastman (14-7-1) on February 2 from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

    MMAmania.com (UFC blog for UFC news, results, videos, rumors, fights, pics and tickets — MMAmania.com) learned about the middleweight bout earlier this afternoon.

    Martin suffered a surprise defeat via third round knockout courtesy of a perfectly placed Chris Leben punch in his last appearance inside the Octagon at UFC Fight Night 11 on September 19. It was a back-and-forth battle that Martin would have more than likely won on the judges scorecards if it went the distance (”The Crippler” was docked a point for a fence grab earlier in the bout).

    With a win the the Chicago-based fighter would have earned a top spot in the middleweight title picture. Now it’s back to the drawing board on SuperBowl weekend to prove that he indeed belongs among the best in the division.

    Eastman has competed in the light heavyweight class for the better part of his long career. He was booked to clash with Demian Maia at UFC 77: “Hostile Territory” on October 20; however, an eye injury forced him off the Cincinnati card.

    Rampage Jackson knocked out “The Beastman” earlier this year in his Octagon debut. Prior to that appearance he hadn’t competed in the UFC since 2004, losing via knockout to Travis Lutter.
    I think they purposely put this to try to build Martin because of Eastmans weak jaw, but I like Eastmans chances, and am putting him for the win.

    Beastman showed real good cardio cutting big weight for his fight against Kimmons in the IFO.

    It was pretty funny...title fight (one of the million belts out there) and at first they screwed up the announcement and started to put the belt on Kimmons even though Beastman clearly won.

    Martin should be fighting at WW and it shows in his physique and small gas tank.

    I like Beastman in this fight.

    sorry i didnt really reply to the thread, but Im hoping Marvin gets this one, it is well within his capabilities if Martin is gonna continue to throw haymakers

    i think he (Eastman) can also match his wrestling, i see this as a very exciting fight

    I don't think Martin will be taking Beastman down and in the end Beastman will be winning the standup game if not KO'n him.

    I'm gonna go against most people and say Martin by TKO round 2. Imo it could go either way though. It's been so long since I've seen Eastman fight I don't know how much he has improved.
