UFC 198: USA vs Brazil! (friendly rivalry, no hate) [uh vai morrer]

[Concrete Whale]

UFC 198 will be a huge event in Curitiba in southern Brazil. The card is long, 13 fights:

2 x Brazil vs Brazil
1 x Brazil vs Russia
1 x Brazil vs Jamaica but has lived in the USA since 13 yo
9 x Brazil vs USA

At the moment the belt breakdown is

USA 7
Brazil 2
Ireland 1
Poland 1

and the HW belt will be up for grabs by an American fighter in the main event.

This event could either be a reassertion of American dominance, right in Brazil's home turf, or a resurgence of Brazilian MMA which shows that the US is being chased for its lead position. I am hoping for some interesting subs!


Edit: US vs Brazil fights:

Werdum vs Miocic
Silva vs Hall ???
Cyborg vs Smith
Shogun vs Anderson

Maia vs Brown
Warlley Alves vs Bryan Barbarena
Thiago Marreta vs Marquardt
John Linker vs Rob Font

Little Nog vs Cummins
Francisco Trinaldo vs Yancy Medeiros

 

[Concrete Whale]

Poll is for US/Brazil fights and I count Uriah Hall as American.

 

[DS7]

It`s not "Uh" but "Tu"

 

[Gabe]

Many Brazilians will likely win, they always fight well on their home soil.

 

[Drake]

My picks:

Stipe
Hall
Cyborg
Anderson
Maia
Alves
Marquardt
Lineker
Cummins
Trinaldo

6 Brazilians, 5 Americans. I'd be very happy with all of these results, except for Shogun. I really wish I'm wrong on this one.

 

[KarateYeah]

It`s not "Uh" but "Tu"

Nope, it is "Uh".

You had it right @Concrete Whale

 

[Sole]

Should have listed the US vs Brazil matches in the OP, imo.

 

[sirmorbach]

I'm Brazilian and I just fucking hate this "uh vai morrer" chant so much that everytime I hear this shit I think about seeking asylum in Canada, so I can chant "G-S-P! G-S-P!" instead in peace.

 

[Inverse]

Brazil got this

 

[DS7]

Nope, it is "Uh".

You had it right @Concrete Whale

I think it would make more sense to be "Tu" each means "you", the "Uh" could easily be mistaken because it`s so similar...But i could be wrong and it`s really "Uh" so my apologies TS if i`m wrong.

 

[SavageAngel]

It`s not "Uh" but "Tu"

Jesus man, shut up about that, it's not TU Vai Morrer it's Uh Vai Morrer.

 

[Chramelated]

USA mother fuckers, backtoback world war champs with internet and soap. Fuck all of you.

 

[BrazilianDude]

It`s not "Uh" but "Tu"

No, it's not. At least not anytime I've heard it here.

People just used that old" Uh Tererê" from the song (not sure if you're old enough to remember) and replaced it by "Uh Vai morrer".
"Uh Tererê" came from the "Whoomp there it is" song because people didn't know what the words were.

Bruh we went to war with sticks and bricks isn't even fair

Is "Uh" gajo. Tu vai morrer seria dahora também. But is not that

There is no USA vs. Brazil. If US and Brazil fought one on one, Brazil will be destroyed about as badly as Mousasi would destroy Ronda.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Apart from Stipe and Corey.. I can't see any of the other non-Brazilian fighters winning. I think most of the opponents are deliberately chosen to be beaten by the Brazilians, thats what they always try to do for these Brazil cards. Stipe and Corey have the best chances to win out of the non-Brazilians.

One on One ? ONE ON ONE ? One on one here means Football, get your boots.
