Posted Saturday August 01, 2009, About: White: Fedor's insane to turn down deal

i dont blame fedor in any of this . hes just a puppet being used by m-1. hes completly locked into them for a while more and cant do anything without their approval. i mean geez the numbers im hearing being thrown around were like 5 mil a fight and m-1 was gonna get a cut of the brock- fedor fight. AND THEY SAID NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ive been sayin for a few days on here that the ufc will be fine without fedor. m-1 wants too much and dana is too smart to let them have it. so what now with fedor? sambo? ok he likes it but how much money is he gonna make doing it? go to japan and fight crap fighters on roids? yea i heard theres a possibility of redoing barnett - fedor out there. i'll take barnett if hes juiced. lol. this whole situation has just gotten stupid and m-1 let it get that way. whos out there for him to fight? overeem? rogers?(who? brett rogers, the strikeforce guy). the window for fedor is getting smaller. hes done alot and will always be remembered as great for it but at 31-33 yrs old and in your prime he needs to be where the best are and showing why hes been what he has been. not gonna happen though, not for now at least. sucks for fans but i dont blame ufc one bit. no one man is bigger than a organization. dana just proved that again. ufc has how many ppv's lined up throughout the rest of the year? fedor and m1 have how many? done deal.

nba need to institute a rule to protect teams from this stuff. not fair to minnesota at all. he shouldnt have been allowed in the draft if this was the plan all along to use the nba as leverage for a contract somewhere else. nba blew this one and wolves fans have to suffer for it. ok minnesota holds his draft right, so what. whats that do for them now? nothing. they got screwed.

wrong. ufc was coined by rorion gracie and art davie. do some research dude. royce was picked by his brother to compete. when frank and lorenzo bought ufc it was a trainwreck ready to die. dana comes in with a new vision and were where we are now. all the early guys deserve all the credit in the world for what they laid the foundation for. just get the facts straight .

Posted Thursday July 30, 2009, About: White: Fedor will fight for title first

no you dont get it. its a promotional ploy by dana . whats he supposed to say "fedor come to ufc and kinna sorta fight somewhat ok guys"?. get real. this whole thing is about control and m-1's overall greed in trying to take more than deserved.again dana isnt gonna shortchange this guy, he knows its gonna cost but to think hes gonna give what m-1 wants is nuts. sure theres fights for fedor outside ufc and he'll make a ton of money doing them.ufc brass know how good fedor is but again they dont put one fighter above an entire organization. his best fights have long since past and yes he'll be remembered as great but now what? hes only 31-32 i believe. still way in his prime. only so many multi org fights out there for him. ufc is swllowing up every market. and who is fedor gonna fight next? barnett in japan where he can shoot all the roids he wants? rogers for strikeforce?(rogers is ok but nothing top tier). overeem if hes ever healthy? oh and the last point you made is hysterical:so why does he have to play by someone elses rules to hype up their fighters and make a quick buck off him? to answer that i say what i said before, ufc has plenty of ppv's on the horizon. how many does fedor have? burnt to a crisp.

Posted Thursday July 30, 2009, About: White: Fedor will fight for title first

if you havent noticed affliction folded. fedor has absolutely no ppv leverage at all. theres no one else to make it happen. strikeforce maybe.against who? overeem? then what? no one questions what fedor has done in the past but hes in his prime now and his window to really do more and become the greatest as you say is getting smaller. you keep thinking dana needs this or ufc is gonna implode. hes a promtor, he has to say he wants the best to fight at ufc. its not a question of how much fedor gets paid. again dana has been doing this a long time now, he knows it takes big bucks for big names. its a question of control. for whatever reason you dont get that. fedors mgmt. wants a stake in all his fights. do you understand that? its double dipping. plus its fedors mgmt. thinking it can make fedor bigger than the ufc. not gonna get that by dana, hes said that publicly several times. no one fighter is bigger than a organization. again dana has proven that. and secondly i wish you really had a clue, you dont but that cool. here comes...i'll make it simple cause i have a feeling trying to explain in detail will confuse you...... RANDY WAS UNDER CONTRACT.........end of story.

Posted Wednesday July 29, 2009, About: White: Fedor will fight for title first

plain and simple ufc is the big stage for top fighters. if fedor wants the best out there him and his mgmt. will take the offer givin and come fight. you really think hes not gonna get paid? dana isnt dumb. he knows its gonna take alot of dough to get him in. his mgmt wants to co promote ufc fights with fedor and share in all profits from it. no way in hell dana and lorenzo give anybody that kinda control. after years of building ufc to what it is and now to give up that much everytime ONE fighter fights. no. bad deal. fedor needs ufc more than ufc needs him and thats by a large margain. remember everyone said randy and fedor have to fight? well that didnt happen and ya know what ufc and mixed martial arts didnt miss a beat. if fedor never comes to ufc , believe me ufc will be more than fine. plenty of ppv's on the horizon for ufc. how many lined up for fedor? if he wants to go back to russia and do sambo or go to japan and fight tomato cans then go ahead. the ufc wont miss him.

Posted Wednesday April 08, 2009, About: Olson: Marlins crowds were 'a joke'

theyre gonna put the stadium on the old orange bowl site. nobody wants to drive down there ,let alone park in people yards unguarded and blocked in for $30 bucks. the orange bowl died there for a reason. the area. its horrible. im still shocked the deal even went through to get the stadium in the first place. i know i didnt vote for it. all this comes down too is whos hands are gettin greased in the building process and who gets to dip into the money pool. if ya believe all the money "raised " is going to the stadium your nuts. city officials dont do honest deals,especially in miami. i wonder how much money is truly going to the stadium once everyone gets paid off. trust me 5 years time from when it opens its gonna be a big empty building just like the orange bowl before it was torn down.

Posted Wednesday April 01, 2009, About: Huerta waiting for UFC call

if the guy isnt planning on fighting anymore to pursue acting and whatever then does it matter when they call? he knows hes gonna get a tomato can or dana might do to him what he did to coture and put him in with a beast to get mutilated. either way whats the rush on rogers part? if im right the contract expires in december so whether he fights or not hes got less than a year to go. and again, whats the rush,hes more or less retiring.

is kimbo still in "the beautiful city of japan"? ( still cant believe nobody prepped him that japan was a country). probably the single greatest soundbite i ever saw.

Posted Friday February 13, 2009, About: Ken Shamrock blasts Frank Shamrock

anybody ever think that frank and ken are doing this purposely for the cash attached to the fight? i mean cmon we all know the fight is a joke,frank should win easily, but were still gonna watch. they know this. its not gonna break any sales records and for all i know it will be on free tv. but these two have been around awhile, they know the game. plus theyre brothers(adopted) and regardless of any so called turmoil between them they talk. ya dont think they didnt plan this out,squabble some for the camera,get some hype(i cant believe i just said that) and sell people a crappy fight.as long as they get paid what do they care. just my opinion

Posted Monday December 22, 2008, About: Liddell wants Jardine rematch

and if chuck beats jardine all it means is he gets to get his block knocked off again by whoever they put him in with afterward. chuck cant beat big names anymore.jardine is no slouch but hes not upper tier lhw matertial. hes a middle of the road guy like what chuck has turned into. granted chuck has more drawing power but his best fight days are behind him.

Posted Tuesday December 16, 2008, About: UFC rides Lesnar to record year

yeas i watched the lashley fight, he looked good. he looked more comfortable using his hands than lesnar does,meaning more fluid with his punches. fight was only 41 seconds against a newbie as well so cant really gauge where bobby is.again he looked good and if brought along properly he could definately be a force. back to lesnar.i think lesnar will be a great champ for ufc,i just dont think he will keep the belt that long this time around,meaning i think he will have multiple holdings of the belt. nog is a tough dude,is he past his prime? maybe. still dont see lesnar just steamrolling him,hes got too much experience. and dont count out gonzaga. not totally sold on him yet but i like him and think he presents a different set of problems for lesnar.hes as big,not as strong but not far off.hes a far superior striker(something lesnar has yet to deal with kicking wise).not sayin he'll knock brocks block off but he definately has the tools to pull it off. i mean seriously if gonzaga lands a freakin mule kick like he did on crocop you really think brock just shrugs it off? ummmm no. then ya have some of the younger guys,valasquez-carwin. both of who can presnt brock with a world of problems.like brock theyre still kinna new to this but i aint selling either of them short. so now its up to brock and his ability to learn the game. his wrestling is off the charts we know that,bjj is still a work in progress and his striking ,well hes strong as a ox and has shown if he connects your in a world of trouble. but overall hes still lagging in the striking area. needs to learn to let his hands go more. still looks tight when he throws but thats fixable.all in all i like brock alot and wish him luck along the way,heavyweight division isnt a boring anymore,im excited for whats to come.

Posted Tuesday December 16, 2008, About: Lashley following Lesnar's lead

i watched the lashley fight and have to say he looked alot more fluid than lesnar.his punching ability is better than lesnars by far. does this mean he can beat lesnar,ummmmm dunno. but i liked what i saw of him thus far.time will tell with bobby. we'll see what happens.

Posted Monday December 15, 2008, About: UFC rides Lesnar to record year

i dont think lesner holds the belt too long this time around, but to say he wont last? ummmm not sure there. hes by far the most physically ready fighter to walk in the octagon and has the wrestling background(collegiate speaking) to show for work ethic. hes dedicated to it thus far,trains properly i feel.i like the fact he buries himself in the middle of nowhere minnesota to lock in for fights. yea hes arrogant and all that but cmon hes a fighter,some are pleasant others just arent. all and all hes the real deal. he fights mir again i think he destroys him. he fights nog,ummm not sure.every good fighter needs a war to test their resolve. everyone thought randy would be that guy for lesnar,nope. nog though is more battle tested than randy i think competition wise. the guys fought every big name there is just about.brock needs a guy like this win or lose.
