not to sound racist, but I think the UFC wants to add a 115lb division to create easier inroads for smaller asian fighters. God knows they'd love to break in to the Chinese market.

They should let 135 lbs women fight 115 lbs men.

I was going to suggest this but hasn't Japan already done men vs women mma?

 

[sazabirules]

Is anybody else going to be watching Bellator?

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

So what deals have you guys got on Steam sale so far?

I'm about to get Far Cry 2. Edit, clicked it :/

So far I got Payday, ARMA 2 for Zombies and Sniper Elite V2.

 

[alr1ght]

So it appears that Logan has returned (with a new set of bolt-ons). Unless I'm seeing things in this shitty stream.

edit: and Rachelle Leah

Uncle Dana smells $$$ in Lombard. He's already sponsored by UFC.

 

[Host Samurai]

I hope Lombard wins. Tim won't go into Barbarian mode.

 

[BigKaboom2]

Over/under on Saunders failed submission attempts is 7.

 

[sazabirules]

Those Killa B knees! Lol Brian Warren.

 

[BigKaboom2]

Good, I reverse jinxed him.

wtf at 178 lb catchweight

 

[Alex Anderson]

Anyone posted about Cormier's next opponent being Tim Sylvia? hehe

 

[parrotbeak]

I swear Uncle Dana said it wasn't true in his 149 scrum. Maybe he meant that it wasn't true yet. Like how it's completely crazy that SF fighters can't sign with the UFC if they leave SF. Oh you mean while the SF Showtime contract still exists? Ok, ya that's true.

 

[TheChits]

I just saw that myself. I'm really shocked they made this fight. Cormier needs to go to the UFC

 

[Chamber]

Well it was either going to be Big Tim or Bob Sapp. Guess they figured Tim was the lesser of two evils.

 

[Host Samurai]

Imagine if Tim wins......

 

[Heel]

Nerd Chat is up friends.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

#6666

It's a sign.

Then we forget Daniel Cormier ever existed.

 

[Heel]

It's a sign.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Logan is back

 

[sazabirules]

This Atila fight is boring. Is Daley next?

 

[dabig2]

This Emmanuel Newton guy has a pretty nice fighting style. Exciting guy.

Portal 2, Trine 2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, The Witcher Enhanced Edition.

Oh and I enjoyed this Newton/Attila scrap

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

lol, obvious troll but people are taking it serious.

 

[Master Thespian]

dat heel hook

 

[BigKaboom2]

So good.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Gotta give fake-ass wannabe Wanderlei Silva Amoussou props. That flying heel hook was awesome.

edit: lol he called Askren Lay-n-prayer. Amoussou has official gone over for me and turned face.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Best picture ever.

 

[Host Samurai]

Wand is the most handsome man in MMA history. No homo.

 

[Gr1mLock]

He is ruggedly handsome

 

[AwesomeSauce]

During the weigh ins for 149 they announced Faber as former UFC featherweight champ.

So that means Chase Beebe and "Razor" Rob McCullough were former UFC champs.

 

[parrotbeak]

Gabe Ruedigger and Hermes Franca too.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Gil da gawd is a former UFC champion.

 

[parrotbeak]

Wait, Rachelle Leah is back for 149 too?

Hmm, maybe I'll head to a bar after Batman. These are good omens.

Can Cheese or someone who understands Bisping translate this into American for me? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySMoLebBQnE

What did he call Lombard when he saw him in the elevator?

Short basically.

 

[Host Samurai]

Bisping is delusional if he thinks he deserves a title shot. He bashes Lombard about who hes beat, yet who has Bisping beat? dumb ass. Bitching his way to a title shot.

Well, who has Lombard beat? I know Bisping is about a popular here as genital warts but lets remain objective.

I would say Mike should stfu about a shot until he has 2 top 10 wins, so Stann and then maybe Belcher or Weidman. On the other hand Lombard has a ton of hype for a guy fighting in the bush leagues...

In my mind Weidman is the clear contender if we need to pick one now.

 

[parrotbeak]

Thanks, I got that from the hand motions, but he calls him something specific. He says like, "I thought someone was playing a joke. Seriously? Who's this little ____"

Also:

http://www.mmafighting.com/ufc/2012/7/21/3173590/dana-white-tim-sylvia-not-signed-to-strikeforce

Just hours after it was reported that the former UFC heavyweight champion had agreed to a contract to fight Daniel Cormier on Sept. 29 in Strikeforce, UFC president Dana White confirmed with MMA.tv that Sylvia had not in fact signed with the organization.

"Long story," he was quoted as saying, "but yes, Tim is not with Zuffa."

LOLOLOLOL

Lombard has a long streak and is a champ in another org. Lets see what he can do with Tim before we jump to conclusions on a title shot for him. Bisping is way out of line. He won 1 round vs Sonnen and the guy thinks hes the saving grace of the MW division. If anybody deserves Anderson RIGHT NOW, I would say Vitor in a rematch. He is on a 2 fight win streak, legend, good record and is probably the biggest threat to Anderson at MW now.

Yeah but a long streak of crushing cans, not trying to argue as defending Bisping on the internet is like plating fog.

Bisping is deluded and a bit of a tool yes but he has better wins than Lomard, hell Vitor's best win at MW recently is Akiyama who Mike beat.

Scraping a loss by 1 point to the number 2 MW is why he is even being allowed to say the word "title" without Dana shooting him down, plus Belcher and co all want to fight him as they know a win over him would get them a shot, so you can see why he feels he can (after a win) lobby for it.

"poison dwarf" - A selfish, untrustworthy, deeply obnoxious or evil person of diminutive size, whose ostensibly unthreatening appearance allows them to fulfil their predisposition for causing unprovoked pain and suffering in an under-hand manner for anyone who has the misfortune to strike-up a friendship them. (urban dictionary)

also, love the dig at belcher's horrific tattoo, lol.

 

[Heel]

I respect Bisping for calling Joe Silva to ask for a fight with Weidman over Stann.

Very interested to hear Uncle Dana's plans for 185 after the card tonight.

He was pretty candid about Joe Silva's response as well, which was essentially stfu.

Didn't he say it we seeing announced tonight?

Yeah, which indicates if Lomard wins he does, if he loses then they are down to picking names out of a hat of the current guys in the mix.

 

[parrotbeak]

Kongo is so emo: "I don't want to win, and I don't want to lose. I just want to be myself."

also, love the dig at belcher's horrific tattoo, lol.

Great dig at Munoz at the same time. Wtf was up with the back of his head? Did they say?

 

[Heel]

Uncle Sanjay drops knowledge, unleashes a Bad MMA megaton.

 

[Host Samurai]

If Bisping thinks he deserves a shot than put him in with Vitor if he gets by Stann. That's his test.

Agreed.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Bisping is going to beat Stann.
