Watched the NBA post game last. Really made me realize that JBJ joined MMA at the right time. There are a lot of guys that play pg and sg that have NBA tools and don't make it to the league that could be physical forces in MMA.
You look at a guy like Gerald Green for example who is 6'8 with a 7'0 wingspan and weighs 190 something lbs. who has quick hands and is an explosive athlete. Could you imagine a guy like that fighting at 205 walking into the ring on fight night weighing 220? MMA is going to be a different beast when these type of guys are doing MMA as second sport when they are playing basketball as kids.

Are you a potential third for the Hopeless Shadwagon of Delusion(tm)?
But think of all the athletic guys that aren't skilled enough to make the NBA or Europe. And there are a lot of them too.
As expected, Fedor wants to end his career fighting cans instead of fighting legitimate opponents in the UFC.
Annoying, really. I want to see him fight Cain Velasquez and Overeem.

So it ends as it began. Circle of life, brah.

Welcome to the beast coast brah. Leave your chardonnay at the hotel and the event starts around 6:00 so people will be showing up then. That six o clock, not six minutes into the main event, or six innings into the Dodgers game like you West Coasters are used to. Better bring your sweater vest too, in case it gets below 65.
Well I for one thought The Rock looked great in his last fight against Ken Shamrock 2 years ago.
Honestly though, the only name fighter outside of the Zuffa banner worth Fedor's time is Kharitonov. He would get slept.
I posted this in September.

What I want to happen, and what I think will happen are two VERY different things
Dammit man consider the title! We know we're 99.9 percent fucked, however in the event of the other we can make a soft claim that we knew it would happen all along!
Heh, oh I know! My nhl playoff picks are half heart and half brain. When my heart picks are right, I'm happy. When my brain picks are correct, it sucks, but at least I was right
Ah well, Rashad can pull of some octagon wizardry.... maybe. I hope. Then Dana's reaction will be the gif of legends.
Will have to watch Bellator another time as well this weekend, it's hockey time tonight

Come on DougB. You can at least join us for nerd chat.
Perhaps. Maybe I'll stream Bellator, and Hockey on my laptop at the same time, and have the other Hockey game on tv. I'll be overloaded with sports! What a fantastic idea.

In the UFC, Fedor would be the can.
I find it hard to believe that Fedor wouldn't excel in a division that has Mark Hunt soaring up the ladder.

If by soaring, you mean climbing a rung, then yes.

Chad Griggs would knock Fedor off the ladder and back to irrelevance.

Says the dude that was front running the Niners during the playoffs.

Frontrunning? I've been a Niners fan ever since I was little. That doesn't mean the West Coast is exactly a diehard sports place. Hell they can't even get a new stadium, they're stuck in the most decrepid stadium in the NFL, what does that tell you?
If Alvarez loses again, there's no way the UFC will pick him up. They won't have a guy who lost 2 in a row in Bellator have a chance at winning in the UFC. It would hurt their image.
If Alvarez wins, however, that would be huge for him, put him in the top 5, plus he'd likely be signed by the UFC.
Called out!

They're building the stadium. Also, you weren't in the thread until the Niners made it to the playoffs. Almost as bad as Yaco not posting when the Bears started sucking or when Brock lost and he was magically drunk for a week.
Really? A can is lower than Roy Nelson status.
I can easily him becoming a top 10 UFC HW, especially considering that Minotauro Nogueira is one of them.
It's too bad we'll never see that happen, though, because Fedor wants to fight cans instead of real opponents, apparently.
TheNatural

So what? Because I don't post in most of the stupid clique ridden major sports threads here doesn't make me a fan? Maybe I just don't want to hear "who the hell are you" or :jnc all the time.

Not only that but he also likes Alex Smith.

You've gone too far now. I hate Alex Smith. And location doesn't equal franchise. I'll take the Niners here if Cali runs off yet another NFL team.

How nice of you to post a gif that demonstrates the direction Fedor's career has been going the past 5 years.

You guys should be talking less about you-know-who and thinking more about MMA dominance on this forum. We have footholds in OT and Community, now just need one on Gaming.
Some ideas: "Which games are shittier than Brendan Schaub's chin?"
"Has any sequel gotten worse over time than Miguel Torres' fighting style?"

"When Sony apologized like George St. Pierre, did you accept it?"
Why concentrate on the valleys of a career that reached the highest mountain? Respect the GOAT, brah.
there's no reason to get a foothold in gaming, what's next a foothold in ponies?

Well one of the MMA contingent here did make this thread ...

So ... it's not out of the question.

I wouldn't mind a Zuffapalooza mid-year. Wouldn't want it near year end so that not everyone was forced to choose between them and Dream's Saitama show on NYE... though I could hear Dana White's inner Don King claim that every UFC event is the MMA Superbowl.
Thanks. Unfortunately, MTV2 is SD only. It's so hard going back to SD when you're spoiled by HD. First world problems.
