Rupp must have gotten over 5 good solid punchs and he also got the take down.

If they play again, I think he might have to go with Simon.

Rupp won clearly but kind of jumped Fata after he declined Simon. Rupp seemed to be the bigger guy and won easily albiet a little on the cheap side.

man, what a coward Rupp is. He wanted no part of Simon, but threw in a second with the much smaller Fata. Rupp had the size and reach and landed the only real punches, but give Fata credit for standing in there.

Rupp caught Fata by surprise and landed the early and more effective punches. He won the fight, but he's a puss for not dropping the gloves with Simon

Mike Rupp just was hammering away, no doubt, but it was all started Cam Janssen, as usual. Janssen came in and pushed someone which started it

Is Rupp wearing a visor? Take it off if you fight wussy.

this was such a bitch move by rupp, everyone complains about how simon "jumped" on fraser later in the game which i dont think is a fair assesment, simon gave fraser plenty of time to know it was on. rupp just dropped the gloves as soon as he saw a smaller less experienced fighter such as fata. anyone can win a fight like that when they blindside someone and just start swinging. no class on rupp for not doing the right thing and giving fata the heads up that it was "going down"

Normally I would say the Devil won it! But...Rupp doesn't deserve this win because he couldn't take Simon on like a man!

simon challenges rupp, rupp wimps out big time and beats up fata, very disapointing to see rupp do sucha wuss move like that

Chicken $*** move by Rupp

Rupp's a coward for not fighting simon. Fata wasn't completely ready.
Posted by mrvan1974 on Feb 20, 2007 at 2:19 PM agree disagree
How is it that Fata wasn't ready? You don't jump between two heavyweights without expecting action. Rupp had to fight Fata after getting shoved by the smaller man. I'd rather see him fight Simon than pound on a littler guy, though.

Ruppīs a €%!&/!"#) sucker
