I'm also sad about our friend Chamber's soul-corroding salaryman job. It's changed him.

Chamber's downfall can be traced back to the Brittney playboy pictures reveal. The new job was just the nail in the coffin.

Fedor trolling is so 2008. I don't think it's worthy of recognition. Fedor trolling hit critical mass in 2010 when he lost to Werdum.

The best part of the Brock thread is obviously the guy who thinks Mark Henry and Big Show can beat up Overeem.

The fighters on TUF 15 look too big to be LW's. They look much more like WW/MW. I don't see how they weigh 155.

Could just be perspective. Note that Dana White looks like the Shockmaster when you put him next to Urijah Faber.

Shit, should go post the clip of Frank Mir saying random guys watching 135ers think they could beat them up just because they weigh 220

i'd put big money on a guy like mark henry beating up a guy like mighty mouse IRL. mighty mouse doesnt have the power to finish guys that weight 135#, what's he going to do with someone bigger.

So are the fighters actually going to get paid this money this time around or are all these numbers in K-1 currency?

K-1 to USD exchange rate

$1,500,000 K-1 = negative $50 USD

I think a prime Big Show, Undertaker and Kane can have their way with guys like Tim Sylvia in a real fight. Noway in a real fight can BJ Penn beat up Big Show. The size is just way too much for the Prodigy to overcome.

I still have so much Bad MMA to catch up on, besides real life stuff from being out of town for so long, but I will put everything on hold to watch another SUPA FIGHT LEEG!

I'm going to stay out of the Brock thread, but my impression of the Japanese wrestling I saw at the last NYE Dream was that it was more realistic and based on actual subs. Is this true or was it because I was in and out of reality? I remember waking up during the Sylvia fight and I don't actually remember how it ended.

Yeah even the worked Japanese pro wrestling matches use the same moves as the shoots as far as what I've seen. It's definitely more believable. The Barnett match was great, the Sylvia one however was really bad.

Yeah i don't see anything ban worthy. Unless wressling-gaf really did get hurt at some of the remarks.

Damnit, I know there's nothing to do for a couple more weeks until fights start get going again but some of you are like the dog bringing in the dead rotting animal (WWE) to the ClassyMMA thread. I won't have it.

I'll be damned if this thread turns into the bitch-fest like the wrestling thread. The only crying around here is going to be the bitter tears when Johnny TKO's Evans.
