Sick card.

Next Big Thing 03-30-2013 09:11 AM

Sara McMann is on the undercard too. Glad to see women other than Rousey included on these cards.

Kris P Lettus 03-30-2013 01:51 PM

womens fight on here and the tuf finale

Road Warrior 03-31-2013 08:03 PM

MoFo 03-31-2013 09:16 PM

Garcia vs McKenzie in a loser leaves town match live on Facebook.

Bisping and Belcher are pissing me off with these dumb betson Twitta. Like Alan Belcher can afford to give away a Bentley :lol: :lol:

Kris P Lettus 03-31-2013 09:41 PM

days away from the biggest fight of the year and you guys aren't posting at all

fuck

:wavesad:

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 04-22-2013 07:14 PM

I've sworn not to post in another one of your threads until you spell Alan Belcher's name correctly.

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 04-22-2013 07:15 PM

Oops.

Next Big Thing 04-22-2013 07:15 PM

Honestly, this card doesn't intrigue me. Sonnen doesn't belong in there with Jones and it will be proven when JBJ smashes him. I don't see Bisping or Belcher as legitimate threats to challenge Silva or even Weidman for the title and Nelson seems relegated to HW midcarder probably due to beef with Dana.

I'll tune in because a talent like Jones doesn't come around often and it's a privilege to see him the same way it's a privilege to get to watch GSP or Silva and, aside from the main event, the fights should be good, but I'm not really excited for this card.

Kris P Lettus 04-22-2013 07:26 PM

how do you see the main event playing out??

Next Big Thing 04-23-2013 07:50 AM

Jones via TKO in the 2nd or 3rd round.

SlickyTrickyDamon 04-23-2013 08:29 PM

So, If Jones wins then he becomes Chael Sonnen right? Since he'd be called the greatest fighter in the world and Chael said being the greatest fighter in the world means you're Chael Sonner.

Kris P Lettus 04-24-2013 05:39 AM

stfu

Innovator 04-24-2013 07:21 AM

The Steve Austin podcast was fantastic with Chael, totally dropped his shtick and spoke honestly.

owenbrown 04-24-2013 09:12 AM

until he went back on Dan Le Batard is Highly Questionable again

Just wqtched countdown show, did not believe Pat Healy had beat Condit so had to check his Wiki. Beat Hardy and Daley too, fought a lot of top names. Still think Miller is way too good for him though.

Love Belcher but him and Bisping are absolute bellends. Hoping for a violent KO, so obviously Bisping ain't gonna deliver on that one.

Disappointed that Chael hasn't been in too many interviews considering it's just a few days away. Only shit I've heard from him he's just recycled his Anderson insults and inserted Jones name.

MoFo 04-24-2013 05:55 PM

Phil Davis is a cockjuggling thundercunt and I hope Vinny Maganana.scshsgwv strangles the nerd

owenbrown 04-24-2013 05:59 PM

don't all his insults usually happen on Le Batard's show anyway?

Crimson 04-24-2013 08:23 PM

I haven't heard Chael use the same insults on Bones than when he did on Silva.

His insults are usually anytime he gets interviewed not only with LeBatard

tyes

the only time he has ever talked shit was the two 5 minute interviews he's done with Dan Le Batard

Kris P Lettus 04-25-2013 06:31 AM

Chael or whoever gave him the ideas for those is amazing.

Moonax 04-26-2013 12:25 PM

It was good to see him called on the race baiting but frustrating to see him allowed to get off the hook so easily.

I found it amusing to see him fall back on 'I have a degree in sociology' and then ignore the fact that what he had done was to conflate nationality, ethnicity and race together with him comments about Silva.

We get it. You want to take a modern MMA fight and create a poster that embodies the vintage look of old boxing posters. Alright, so you take two fighters, remove the color, throw in a paper texture overlay and then place two red slanted rectangles at the bottom. Actually, the jokes on you. Vintage fight posters never looked like that. They looked more like this, and I don't see any of you running out to make bland, turn-of-the-century boxing posters that were heavy on awkwardly placed text.

The truth is the look above is actually a modern creation that has been replicated endlessly; through heavyweight boxing posters, posters of Survivor cast members fighting, AM talk-show sports radio guys, 2012 presidential election posters, Star Wars battles -- heck, even old heavyweight boxing posters have been modernized to give it a vintage look, wrap your head around that simulacrum.

MMA doesn't need the same overused aesthetic. We've just overcome the entire skull/angel wing/tribal design thing a couple years ago. There's no more room for lazy design -- the MMA world is literally overflowing with creativity and innovation. Let's embrace it.

Love Middleeasy :lol:

Kris P Lettus 04-26-2013 01:46 PM

I like the "classic" looking posters..

Next Big Thing 04-27-2013 07:49 AM

I had a dream that Sonnen pulled off the upset with GNP in fourth round and he became this huge star and the rematch did Wrestlemania numbers. I do not remember who won that rematch, however.

So there you go, Sonnen will pull the upset according to my rum&coke/ Jager shots induced dream.

MoFo 04-27-2013 10:16 AM

lol @ Sonnen saying he's earning $10m for this fight when Fitch got cut for earning too much at $60k

I know Sonnen brings way more to the table but still, lol

Krimzon7 04-27-2013 02:26 PM

MOFO you never question Chael

Next Big Thing 04-27-2013 08:46 PM

Sara McMann could give Rousey one hell of a fight. Plus, two female Olympians squaring off would create all sorts of media buzz.

CSL 04-27-2013 09:34 PM

wow 2 straight fights stopped for "technical" reasons, don't see that every day

Vietnamese Crippler 04-27-2013 09:36 PM

At least the second one was more legit.

Next Big Thing 04-27-2013 09:37 PM

Kris P will be posting a pic of that thumb.

Next Big Thing 04-27-2013 09:40 PM

I'm loving Chael and Bisping's antics on this card.
