Oh hell yes, Frunks gonna be shleepin no worries.

Frunks been "rocked"/wobbly knee'd whenever someones connected with a half decent punch in all his recent fights. Unless he gets this straight to the ground or pulls of a MURRaculous KO he will Roose Bolton.

who know's maybe HW Legend the Handsome Frank Mir pulls off the upset, the only 2 guys to successfully defend the UFC HW title since 2007 are Randy Couture and Brock Lesnar.

Frunk also likes to sit there and take fist to face for a while before doing anything.

Yeah I hope that the UFC doesn't shy away from giving Cain a rematch against JDS to settle the #1 Heavyweght of All Time debate. Looks like they were up for it considering they gave him Mir in a #1 contender match.

kinda hard to sell a immediate rematch of a fight where the dude got knocked out in 60 seconds.

What else could they do if and when Sugar Cain beats his next opponent? No one can tell me this division is stacked when one guy gets tied up and the whole division is in peril.

Save us Mark Hunt!

Hey, he survived for a good 62 seconds:

We laugh, but Dana could pay for half of the girls working in porn today to dress as the X-Men and lick Nutella off his wang, which most of us will never have the chance to do, hell I could just about afford a crack whore to dress as a Teen Titan...maybe, but she would use own-brand not Nutella.
Nutella is delicious but when you put it on a body it looks like shit.

Cain needs to win his next fight by a finish and then I think a rematch would be fine. People will still say it's too early, and in a deeper division he should have at least 2 good finishes first.
 
Nothing is worse than the "I have Cain in a rematch". Shits a joke. He has had one of the most humiliating loses in MMA history and would KTFO in the 1st again. JDS is a horrible fight for Cain as is Overeem. Cain couldn't even finish Kongo. I also think Marku Hunto would wreck Cain as well.

JDS vs Mir is a fucking waste. Dana should of had Brock as a back up plan but I am going to be delusional and pray for a Fedor signing. Lets twitter bomb Dana with Fedor requests...but I think its more likely that we would get Tim Sylvia signed before Fedor.
 
I have Cain getting past round 1 in a rematch.

I wonder how much those Yes We Cain t-shirts are discounted now. If it gets to the $10 range I will grab one.
 
Goddamit Overeem. I am still shocked at his stupidity. Why didn't he just hide out in Netherlands until the fight or something. Bloody fool. I'm pretty sure JDS would have won against a roided up Overeem....

You mean 'in' as in he shows up?

You're talking to a guy who picked Yushin Okami and Chad Mendes. I've gotta stay consistent.

I think this match up gets a lot more interesting next time. Curious to see how Cain bounces back from his injuries though.

The irony is, how worthless a purchase Strikeforce was for the UFC now.

Overeem, Diaz, Cyborg, and King Mo all popped.

Then the next Strikeforce fight is with a guy who has tested positive plenty before.

A lot of money down the drain.

Heel should I go for a 32GB iPad? I don't know if I'll be getting many games for it.

dream is our resident iPad expert, but I'm learning towards yes. I have about 40 apps, a few books, no music and no videos installed and I'm close to half full on 16GB. That's after less than 2 weeks. Switching it out for 32GB.

Plus I think if you have to erase games and apps without logins you lose your save data. Is that right dream?

As expected, the preliminary card for next week's UFC on FUEL TV 2 event will stream on Facebook.

The online stream kicks off at 12:30 p.m. ET (9:30 a.m. PT), and the main card goes live on FUEL TV at 3 p.m. ET.

The early start time is due to the event's location overseas; UFC on FUEL TV 2, which features an Alexander Gustafsson vs. Thiago Silva light-heavyweight headliner, takes place at Ericsson Globe Arena in Stockholm.



Noon kickoff to nerd chat next week after the long ass MMA lull.

I think I'll save up then. I'll also probably get a Smart Cover unless there's a better case out there.

yes if you delete an app, the data inside the app like a save game gets deleted with it. you can't separate the two.

me, I have a 64GB LTE iPad that is about half full from all the apps and games I have on it.

On yeah and #RallyForMarkHunt

Hendo-Shogun made it worth it.

They could have just signed Henderson, his deal was up anyway.

Maybe the Fertitas and Dana will understand now at least ,there's always going to be slack with fighters who can't be in the UFC for whatever reason, and stop trying to monopolize the sport.

I'd say it's the most functional with the sleep/wake function and folding to a stand. Plus you can get a case for the back that works with the smart cover if you're worried about scratches.

I bought a black leather smart cover from this guy on eBay. Thought it might be a knockoff at $25 instead of $70+ but checked against a friends' and it's the real deal. Just an open box store model. Damn I'm cheap.

I got a good deal on a "leather" tablet sleeve too. They sent two so if you end up getting an iPad let me know and I'll send you the extra if you want. Has an accessory pocket and magnetic flap.

April/May are going to be legendary for MMA.

Eddie Alvarez vs. Shinya Aoki @ Bellator on April 20th

Jon Jones vs. Rashad Evans and Rory MacDonald vs. Che Mills @ UFC on April 1st

Josh Barnett vs. Daniel Cormier, Gilbert Melendez vs. Josh Thomson, Rafael Feijao vs. Mike Kyle all @ Strikeforce on May 16th

Then you got UFC 146 which is likely to feature JDS/Mir, Cain/Bigfoot, Hunt/Struve, Rosario/Gonzaga and Nelson/Mittrione.


MMA is gewd.

We also get to see whether Lima is the real deal. I'll laugh if he gets laid on every round and loses.

Fixed.
 
All I want from the MMA gods is a UFC Heavyweight Championship fight between Mark Hunt and Chad Griggs this year. Is that too much to ask?
