Is that the suplex dude? Should be an awesome scrap
Johnny Bones winging bungalows at Joe Silver.
I'm so confused. Jones is mad about his challengers getting an easy road to the title, but who are the monsters he's fighting if not these unproven challengers who haven't gotten a big win to deserve the title shot?

Jones is saying his contenders don't earn their title shots against him. Lets break it down..
Gus earns a shot based on win against Shogun and at time of statement would've earned a rematch off Lil Nog
Chael earns shot based on win against Bisping
Belfort earns shot based on win against Rumble Johnson
Rashad Evans earns shot based on Phil Davis
Machida earns shot based on Randy Couture
Rampage earns shot based on Matt Hammill

He wants the contenders to thin themselves out? It's better for his legacy to beat as many of these guys as possible, but whatever. I don't care about him being a snitch or a hypocrite but this shit about not wanting to fight guys pisses me the fuck off.

He's saying he wants tougher competition and to fight guys that have earned their way to him.
Sounding like a fool.
As champion, you should just sit there and shut up and fight whoever they want you to fight. You want to stay the best, keep proving it by winning against anyone.

Bader was 12-0 at the time.

This is true. And on top of that you have guys like Machida who turn down rematches and then flee the division.

12-0 with his biggest win over Lil Nog who Jones just dissed in the article.

Who back then was on a 7 fight win streak and at the time having the Noguiera name didnt hurt either.
You're so close with your first one, playboy. You gotta use Batroc the Sleeper.

He does all of GSP's events. PM him and see if he is doing this one.

Yeah but I think he was gifted the title shot against Shogun. He got it on such short notice. So the conditions he got it under was a little dubious. Though I'll give him credit, he'll have beaten everyone in the division after he fights Glover (well see if DC can get down to LHW).
I would like to thank you for the nomination friend. I graciously accept.

Boogie has no power here.

I think Gus would take DC out. I haven't really been that impressed with DC since the Barnett fight, and he might be a bit too undersized to beat Jones using wrestling. If Jones had issues taking Gus down than so does DC. I would like to see him fight Evans to see how well he can wrestle at 205.
The one of him and Lorenzo in London trying to flip that tiny car is awesome, there are some great ones out there.

Dana sounded like an animal when he was conversing with Jessica Eye.
Capt Otaku simping for a dude who hasn't mattered in MMA-GAF since 2007.
Admittedly if someone among us wants to make the OT, I will gladly defer. But I will not stand aside for a banished gypsy hater or an absentee relic of the past.
I didn't even know the PPV was on the 16th.
You got this friend.

A sad sight.
Boogie can create his GSP fellating OT on the bore or wherever the hell he fucked off to

Friends, I legit didn't know there was a UFC card tomorrow. I only found out because I left the tv on after Champions League Futbol and the weigh-ins are on now. That card is axstv-quality.
So is Saturday's outside of the main event.
I legit had no idea there was a card Saturday or that Hendo and ViTRTor were fighting.
Oh my. Friends. Your boy Grim just got a chance to rev his engine up. Spent two hours doing random mma miscelany thanks to my first kickboxing coach. Rolled and sparred. .. I dont even know what endorphins i got in my blood right now. I was invited to come back. And im doing it.

Me neither
I'm not a fan of the Hendo/Vitor matchup, it's setup to make someone fail either way.
If Vitor wins, Hendo likely gets cut.
If Hendo wins, Vitor's train gets derailed.
Course there is a chance either guy could get a title shot for winning, but that remains to be seen and I don't see it happening when Vitor already bombs Dana's twitter begging for fights and Dana has been soured on Dan since his injury around the time he was going to fight Jones.

I'm ignorant and dumb as hell. What does this mean?
I didn't know there was a Fight Night on until my newsfeed blew up with weigh-in information.
Also Hunt vs Bigfoot is happening in my hometown (Brisbane, Australia), but the tickets are ridiculously expensive ($200ish AUD)... So yeah, no thanks.

Good shit. I've been doing MMA for about 5 months now and it's the most challenging and awarding thing I've ever done outside of work. Coupled with no-gi BJJ and Muay Thai, it's like constantly putting your body in a blender.
If you're gonna keep sparring though, make sure you have a fitted mouthguard. Shit will save your teefs. We had one guy with an ill-fitting guard accidentally spit it out during a spar, took a hook and knocked two of his teeth out.
Shittiest ultimate card ever

UFC knows they can gouge the market here. The cards have been getting less stacked as well, first AU event had a lot of names: Cro-Cop, Wand, Bisping, Cain, Big Nog.
