God I hope M-1 really is M-Done. I don't think I've hated an MMA promotion/management more than them. I'd probably start liking Fedor again if he finally left them.

I hope he was able to witness the brilliance that was the Funkasaurus and his mom's bridge club dance number.

It would be great if Dana incorporated something similar into the Ultimate.

I also hope he got a good laugh when the commentators said that the Undertaker was the most feared striker in the WWE.

So what's on the Bad MMA agenda for tonight and tomorrow?

Bellator 64's main card looks pretty sweet. Supa Fight Leeg tomorrow morning. What else is there?

edit: also, what chance is there of "The Year of the obnoxious blanket getting knocked the fuck out" continuing tonight and Ben Askren being stretchered out?

ugh supa fite leeg is on way too early tomorrow. 6:15am Best Coast Time.

I'll try to be up for it tho and be in nerd chat.

As for Bellator tonight, WAR LIMA. My iPad is ready as always. Heel, you should watch this card on your iPad too. Better image quality than shitty SD MTV2.

Are you sure about SFL? Their ticker and banner says 6 PM for this one. I think that would be a really weird hour in India though, so I dunno.

M-1 might be finished. How convenient of a timing this is.

Fuck that noise, I refuse to believe.

If this resulted in something like a Fedor/Hunt rematch and everyone else got shuffled up the card, I would be ok with this but no, Fedor is going to the Supa Fite Leeg, I am sure of it.

In actual reality what are the chances that Hunt fights JDS @146? Am I being delusional holding out on that possibility? there is a very strong push for this fight to happen and the reality of it is that its the most exciting HW fight the UFC can offer if Reem is out.

Dana, the fans have spoken and we want Hunto. We don't like Mur and Cain got is ass embarrassed in 62 seconds on national TV.

There's a Twitter bomb going on to get Hunt in, on Dana's Twitter. It would be great. Maybe if enough people speak up it will happen.

Its not going to happen and if it does the only chance Hunt has is a quick KO. If it goes past the first round or to the ground hes done.

All the top guys Mark Hunt has fought have submitted him. He probably doesn't ever work his ground game because he has a hard time getting back up.

Honestly Dana is in a lose/lose right now. He would be hard pressed to sell any of these guys in a fight with JDS.

you can poke a ton of holes in the case for any of these guys to fight JDS.

Hunt KO'ing JDS for the title would be a real life Rocky story. None of this Frankie Edgar bullshit.

Unfortunately yes. Casuals will just see his record on Wikipedia and be all wtf and having your UFC HW Champ be a dude who got kimura'd by Sean McCorkle wouldn't sit well with Dana and Lorenzo.

It's the lack of this kind of "records be damned" PRIDE-style booking that makes the UFC lacking any sizzle.

This X100000000000. UFC sucks at building stars. Their entire ranking and matchmaking are extremely flawed. If they want to go mainstream than they must adapt to Pride bookings. I would love actual tune up fights as well. You can turn "cans" into well known fighters. Look at Sokoudjou, he is now a known name among the fighting community and has a fanbase because he upset Lil Nog.

honestly the only divisions in the UFC stacked enough that they would never have to book like that are WW and LW. MW, LHW, and HW don't really have deep rosters filled with contenders, maybe we can start getting some Pride style freak shows to keep champs busy.

FYI UFC Primetime: Jones vs. Evans premieres after TUF tonight. Due to an uncertain ending time for TUF as a result of its live nature, setting your DVR will probably not do the trick.

When is the last time you've seen JDS take a fight to the ground?

I guarantee UFC tries to keep Reem under contract now that Fedor has a date booked.
Click to expand...

I don't know that it would matter all that much. Not like M-1 is going to get a TV deal or any significance for it. Maybe better vodka sponsorship for the fight or something. Plus if Reem crushes Fedor his value drops even lower, if that's possible.

Blackzillians are a bunch of 2nd placers. Melvin Guillard, Evans, Reem, Anthony Johnson...all guys that everyone thinks will win the belt but will end up losing.
