Swick-Fu versus The Crow

subgenius · 08-18-2006, 11:58 AM

Here is a message from Mike Swick about the last UFN and his next opponent at UFC-63!

Hey guys,

I just want to say thanks to everyone who wore my Swick-Fu shirt at the Ultimate Fight Night here in Vegas tonight. The turnout of Swick-Fu supporters was unbelievable and I really appreciate it! Especially since I wasn't even fighting. Thanks so much for the support! Its for you guys that I train so hard and do what I do.

Oh, and David Loiseau IS my next opponent and I will face him at UFC 63 at the Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim California. I look forward to seeing the Swick-Fu fans there and I hope to give you all a great fight.

If you dont have a Swick-Fu shirt and want to sport one in Anaheim please visit my store at..

Thanks so much guys,

-Swick

I may be crazy, but I think that Mick Swick is going to beat The Crow, David Loiseau. Maybe by KO. But, most likely by submission. I really do not expect a decision match. If it goes to a decision, then it will be the first time for Mike Swick to go the distance in the UFC.

i like swick he has impressed me lots, wheni look back on tuf i dont see to many exciting fighters but swick really gives something else, and i can only see him getting better

Yea Swick is no joke. The combination of speed, accuracy and power in his hands is something you rarely see. I was glad to see he slowed the fight down when he fought Riggs. Before that fight i felt that the first time he fought a real solid fighter they'd shrug off his intensity and make him gas, then take advantage of it. But he showed in that fight that he knows with the fighters he has to face now, you have to wait for that right second to expode. I could see this fight going either way. Counter-punch for the win in my opinion.

i think Swick is gonna get owned in this fight. i see this being the Anderson/Leben fight reply'd in fast motion. Swick is highly overrated to me and even though he's exciting he tends to leave himself out there to get rocked. i think the Crow is gonna hurt this kid.

I like swick too, but I don't think he is ready for the crow.

i thought Swick was probably the toughest guy who competed in LHW in the first season of TUF. he almost put Bonnar out in their match. this coming from a guy who is a middleweight fighter. he lost but at that point you could tell he had what it takes to be a force in MMA.

That will be a wicked fight, and yes I think Swick will destroy him personnaly.

haha I agree. Should be one hell of a fight though. Swick definately has the power and speed in his hands to defeat the Crow but the Crow does to. I really honestly am unable to pick the winner of this fight. IMO could go either way I see it beeing over in first round by KO for Loiseau. But I wouldn't be suprised if Swick is to win.

Even for a split second. The Crow popped Franklin pretty hard and put him on his butt (if I recall correctly). Even though Franklin won, it was a good fight. Can Swick hang with that> I dont know. I know this is bad MMATHAMATICS. But just a thought.

i would love for swick to win, he's got skills and it wouldnt suprise me too much if he pulled it off, but he wont, not this time. and i also think if him and riggs did it again, riggs would put it on him.

I didnt think that Diego was ready for someone like Karo but we saw how that turned out. Swick has consistantly shown great hand speed, good power, precision strikes, and a solid ground game. I think he has more than a chance to beat The Crow. I would bet on Swick in this one...but then again, I tend to lose about ever match I bet on so you can take that for what its worth

I will be betting on the Crow in this one. It should be good, but if
David is on his game I suspect it will be another quick fight for Swick. Just with him on the mat.

Good Fight! Franklin owned the Crowe with one hand.
