Best looking one wins TUF anyway...who is it? Dare I say Paige Van Zant? OR Torres? Or both with Dana having a cream out night and giving both the...ehm..the contract!??

I'm ready for the strawweights. They will still offer more entertainment than the lightest UFC males.

The women's 135lbs division on TUF started out really promising and just petered out by the end there. The men's 135lbs was dead on arrival. I really don't want to see the MMA talent pool decline, but I never watched too many TUFs so for all I know they could have been shallow since forever.
 
I.. do live in new york?

City holmes..city!

Yeah TUF is garbage in any way. They need to do WMMA tufs exclusively..I would watch for the attractive ones!

Im so tired of guys crying "Ill do it for my son/family/dog thats dying of cancer" and then freakin' quits right there in the small sized octagon with 20 viewers. Motherfucker!

Yes..city. It snowed in buffalo and now its coming down here ..to the city. In which i live.
 
I wouldnt be suprised if the Fertittas would sell the UFC. Lets be honest here...they keep talking about passion and all that but these guys are icecold business people.

Fertittas and White are icecold fuckers and you know it. These guys probably plan to take over freakin' Vegas with Whites ambition to get into the casino business and all.

People would probably cream their pants if they ever knew how big Zuffas profit is...
My gut feeling tells me that they use the UFC and cash cow the shit out for something bigger.

We as fans are blessed to have guys like Silva, GSP, Cain, JDS and Jones around to entertain us. But I can see a future of average joes dominating the UFC once these guys are gone. Like the Sylvia era...ehmm yeah hurts my brain.

Bros... if everything goes as plan. My hard work and paying attention while in brain dead conversations will pay off tonight. I deserve this shit.
 

ItAintEasyBeinCheesy

it's 4th of July in my asshole
The platform the new TUF is going to use with the winner automatically getting the title would be a good idea for a new catchweight division.

Current UFC fighters vying for title are in the house, no coaches they have to help each other, maybe even do away with teams altogether. Focus a bit more on the training and less on antics and shit.

Would build up the fighters name with more exsposure, fights MIGHT be better I dunno.

Have fun with that. I'm taking a break from the dating game. By taking a break, I mean, I'm going to die alone.

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
So how long now before GSP retires, tells us about his dad dying, tells us about his upcoming baby, comes out, announces his intention to fight Anderson, tells us about the aliens, ducks Hendricks, apologises has his press conference?

Dana says this press conference is GSP announcing he'll be doing an autograph signing at a mall opening.



Anyone uppins want a McDonalds code for Ms. Splosion Man (360)?

Im on the verge of sticking a drill up my shitty useless nose. I CANT BREATHEEE!!

Back in 2011 when I got severe tonsillitis and my throat closed up (required hospitalisation for a week) I ended up getting a rapid flu test in one nostril and a camera up the other. My nose was clean for months.

Seeing all the guys miss weight last season was them quitting and crying before they ever make it to the octagon.

I watched Felice Herrig fight on one of the XFC matches last year and was less than impressed.

dat paige van zant
A 3-1 fighter with a personal webpage full of modeling shots. Well, she landed the UFC contract, she clearly knows what she's doing.

I've never been terribly interested in the mixed-martial arts games. I'll give one a try eventually, I've dabbled in fighting games for decades though I've never played at an elite level. They guys who can are just mesmerizing.

They're not amazing but great fun for what it is. Having a buddy who's a MMA fan and a shit talking competitive gamer makes it all that much better.

I've pretty much played every MMA game out there and I'd say just dabble in Undisputed 3 until EA UFC comes out. Don't go near the steaming pile of garbage that is EA MMA.

I'm considering an indefinite leave from watching MMA. Heel and I will hold a press conference when I make my decision.

Of all the combat sports games Ive played fight night champion the longest. It was patched to death later but creating your own boxah and specializing was fun...

Good for the welterweight division...bad for the sport...

This is interesting. I'd say a nice welterweight tourney for the vacated title would've been great but it's messed up in the sense that Hendricks already deserves that belt.

A WW tourney with Hendricks, Condit, BJ, Diaz, Brown, Kim, Askren, Rory, Lawler, Shields, Maia, Saffediene, Ellenberger, Woodley, and Lombard would've been sweet.

I'm all on board. Even better, have them do it in one night like in the early days.

I love how Dana is doing this over the phone. I'm sure he's fuming inside, and rightfully so.

Dana made his bed and now he has to lie in it. Have fun watching Jessamyn Duke spend 3 minutes figuring out how to apply a RNC and struggling to get 250k buys on your "stacked" cards, you fat fuck.

I feel like every year its getting worse. Its started to impact my sleep in a really shitty way. I wake up almost every night gasping for air. At this point id saw the damn thing off if it meant the hole in my face would actually suck in air.

What about when GSP was on top of Dan Hardy for 25 minutes trying to figure out how to apply arm bars and RNC? He even apologized afterwards and promised to go back to the locker room to practice and improve his technique.

Although I agree with your second point 1000%
