That gif is redundant. Flipping someone off is already telling them to fuck themselves.

See now that is a good flipping the bird gif.

Money, residency, pride. In that order.
Wrong, playboy. Let's see Nate throw up double birds within takedown range of a blanket.
Perhaps the greatest sequence in the history of our sport.
Vanilla Lay Praynard tried co-opting Diaz bros tactics to generate cheap heat and fan interest for the first time in his career. While on the surface it's admirable that he wants to become entertaining, I fear that the real Lay Praynard will be on display whenever he returns to action for a frightfully boring 15 minutes.
History is on my side.

I still don't believe he can safely make featherweight.

My cyborg body is ready. I've got some business to attend to in half an hour but once I'm done I'm picking it up.
I reckon you could finish the game in that time.

I don't buy games for length I buy them for replay value. At this point I could probably speed run Dark Souls in half an hour but I still play it from time to time.
Fair enough.
P.S: I doubt you'd be able to run through Dark Souls in 30 minutes on your first time.

Of course Hendo is right. It's become more and more obvious over the years.
lol more interested in the opinions of our free-thinking friends who don't think Cung Le is suddenly a title contender just because Ed Soares says so.
I think Dan is right to some degree. Sadly he doesn't realize that Anderson would jump to fight him at this point for those same reasons.
I don't really see how Anderson is ducking anybody except maybe Bones. The guy beat every top 10 MW in the world up till now and even stuck his foot in at 205.
Leben was 15-1 and on a 6 fight win streak
Rich Franklin was the champ and regarded as the #1/#2 MW in the world at the time
Lutter only fought him cause he won the TUF that year along with Serra
Marquardt riding a 6 fight win streak considered top 5 MW at the time
Franklin still top 3 again in his hometown
Hendo #2 MW at the time although he was coming off his loss to Rampage. Unifies that fraud of a Pride title along with his just bleed strap.
Irvin for fun at 205 last minute fight to counter program Fedor's fight
Cote riding a 5 fight win streak but yeah a shit opponent. No one else was available at the time
Thales Leites was 14-1 going into the Silva fight and just got a win (albeit controversial) over Marquardt who they actually wanted to fight Silva again
Forrest one fight removed from his 205 strap. Was on a monster run beating Shogun and Rampage back to back. And even getting the better of Rashad until that shot in the 3rd round.
Maia was a last minute replacement for an injured Vitor and was still a top 5-10 MW.
Sonnen coming off dominant wins over Marquardt and Okami
Vitor not really a top MW at the time but just had 5 straight victories and everyone wanted to see Ando tested against a pure striker
Okami is Okami
Chael rematch despite everyone saying he was ducking Chael
Bonnar.. yeah I have no idea what the hell this was about but who was really available? Besides this was a last minute replacement fight to save a Brazil card.
Not exactly sure wth Hendo is talking about? He not only beat but destroyed every top middleweight in the cage which I can't say the same for Hendo.
Who's he ducking? Weidman? Lmao. Which is probably going to happen next anyway.
There is no one left at 185 except maybe a fight with Lombard coming off 2 or so more dominant wins.
He would have wrecked any version of Shogun or Rashad as well.
Weidman, Lombard, GSP, and Jones are the only ones left before he cements his legacy and the only one hes possibly ducking is Jones.
What has changed since their last fight? Hendo's still a very dangerous fighter for 2, maybe 3 rounds. He hasn't even called out Vitor, the 1, maybe 2 round phenom.

Just got my copy of MGR from Amazon.
Fuck.
Yes.
Fuck.
Yes.
Vox, pumping up guys like Thales Leites and James Irvin as contenders rings about as true as me telling you Zulu Jr. and Naoya Ogawa were dangerous opposition for Fedor. Let's shoot straight and not kid ourselves.
If he manages to get through that lineup I'll kiss the ring.
I love Hendo, but look no further than the Shields fight to see why a 42 year old man shouldn't cut to middleweight. That was 3 years ago.

Who in MW has been a phenom though? Realistically? That division is packed with talented hard workers.. not naturally talented guys. I mean.. you could maybe make an argument for Vitor but that dude was weathered to hell and had serious ring rust at the time.
It's been a long time since Anderson has had a serious challenge and while that's more the result of a rather bland MW division, anytime it's looked like a fighter could present a challenge (Chael part 2, prospect of Jones fight) he'd rather look other places. And of course the fact that He won't fight dudes from his own camp makes the question of a fight like Machida impossible. Though I think that fight could be a lot more entertaining than most Silva's title defenses.

No one said they were contenders. I just gave a reasoning for why he fought them at the time. That Irvin fight came into place only cause Fedor was fighting Timmay at Affliction the same night and it was a last minute fight to counter program it.
Leites had just beat Marquardt who they were pushing for a rematch.
Better question is, who else was available at the time to fight Silva in their place? Lindland? Lol.
