Why the hell did Ariel try to insinuate that Punk would wana get in the octagon:n::|

bc of all the rumors he is leaving the wwe

Dude would get his shit pushed in if he ever deluded himself into thinking he could fight in the UFC.

So apparently Dana is leaving it up to GSP if his next fight is Johny Hendricks or the Spider.

hendricks is hurt

it's weather he waits and gives big rig his shot or if he wants another fight before, not necessarily Silva

Silva is already gonna fight Weidman so I don't see that fight happening

Maia is the only guy who could step up unless the pull the Ellenberger/Rory fight and like Jake have his shot

I think GSP will wait for Hendricks

Facebook lies to me again.:'(

only other solution is to have the winner of Ellenberger/MacDonald but Rory is a fag and won't fight GSP and that fight isn't till July anyway so I would think, time wise, it would be the same as waiting on Hendricks

awesome venue for the ONE FC fights in may in the Phillipines..

When Chael Sonnen was pursuing a fight with Anderson Silva, his key weapon was the MMA media. The ‘American Gangster’ produced a ceaseless stream of outrageous comments about Anderson, his career and his homeland.

The latter subject was controversial, with more than a few commentators accusing Sonnen of racism for his various derogatory comments about Brazil and its culture. For example, in the process of labelling it a third-world country, Sonnen expressed surprise that Brazil possessed such things as computers and internet access.

He also claimed that the Nogueira brothers had “tried to feed carrots to a bus”, the inference being that vehicles are such a rarity in Brazil that they didn’t know how to approach it. Many Brazilians, fighters and fans alike, were annoyed and offended by these comments. Brazilians generally take a fierce pride in their nation.

This past weekend, one of them attempted to gain restitution via a pound of flesh. Sonnen was at the TUF 17 Finale in Las Vegas and did some meeting and greeting with fight fans afterwards. One of them called him over for a photo opportunity - but it was a trap.

“He was there, shaking hands with everybody and everything, and this guy says, 'Hey Chael! Chael! C'mon over here.' Chael goes over there and the guy starts swinging on him, tried to punch him,” UFC president Dana White tells us.

“[Security] bundled the guy up and dragged him out and he's saying, 'F--k you! You are a piece of s--t! I'm from Brazil!' and all this other stuff. The guy attacked him at The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 17 Finale last Saturday.”

The Brazilian’s direct action came back on him in rather immediate fashion however, as the venue security gave him the five-star treatment on the way out of the building. “It was a bad move. They didn't take him out of there politely. He got bundled and dragged over every stair on the way out,” White laughed.

The humour of it aside, the incident does raise interesting issues. Sonnen’s press conference appearances in Brazil prior to his second Anderson Silva fight were fraught with security concerns. One of the reporters who attended tried to sabotage Sonnen with a novelty pen which delivered a mild electric shock.

Obviously that wasn’t a particularly serious incident but if a reporter feels like doing something like that, there’s no telling what a young hothead might attempt.

There’s a world of difference between US and Brazilian culture; the WWE-style trash talk which American audiences understand to be hyperbole don’t necessarily get understood that way in Brazil. Many Brazilians took Sonnen absolutely literally and were incensed by what they saw as outrageous slanders on their culture and country.

GSP was great on JRE.

Loved his fish analogy about alien abductions.

I liked Arianny when she was thicker. She's a bit too thin for me now. Palmer is where it's at.

I am going to be depressed when Anderson Silva starts to get too old and can't fight as good as he used too

He'll probably retire before that happens... which will still be depressing.

My biggest fear is that he won't know when to say when. None of the greats ever go out on top.

Brock shoulda quit after his 5th fight :(

wait what

why should he have quit after beating Mir, winning the title and avenging his only loss??

i know thats win he got sick but he came back, had a huge comeback win against carwin, then lost to cain, who is the greatest HW in UFC history IMO, then lost to overeem

he might should have retired after the cain loss but he was a huge draw and was promised another title shot if he won

not really like he went on a huge losing skid jobbing to no bodies, he was still right there in the title hunt, fighting the best HW's in the world
