Light hearted comment, right?

Zeliard said:lol @ me trying to make it an event. I made a short and light comment when the blood started flowing that someone curious about the sport would be turned off if they tuned it at that point, and people started rushing to defend the entire UFC as a whole as if what I said was some huge slight against the organization, instead of something obvious and ultimately trivial about Joe Schmoe television watcher. I haven't seen a group this overly defensive since the Dreamcast days. :lol

So how bout that Cantwell/Stann fight eh?? who saw that coming!?! amirite? *nudge* *nudge*
I had Huerta losing the fight before hand, but the entire fight, I was rooting for him. He looked pretty damn good I thought.thirty said:sad to see huerta leave, him not taping on that kimura was just insane. huerta did look more technically sound, had no rust, but he didn't look good in exchanges. huerta seemed to close his eyes, flinch, then swing wildly to get out of the exchange. the old huerta seemed to be less afraid to get hit on the face.

Na.....UFC wanted Cantwell to win, dude comes off a tough tough fight against cane and then he goes and loses a UD to Stann. That was a gimmie fight for Cantwell and was also supposed to get Stann out of the UFC.mrbagdt said:i was thinking more along the lines of who cared. but the guy the ufc wanted to have win did, so whatever. i just wish CB would have lost!

Cantwell now has his back against the wall, hope he brings it next fight.
Wow you are really selling him short. He also said DO SOMETHING DO SOMETHING and SUB HIM several times. If the scrub would have just listened to his coach and subbed the guy, he would have won (by definition).pr0cs said:"get up get up" is not helping .. at all.
Facism said:Rampage is one dumb douche.
Wait, getting confused here.mrbagdt said:see, i was more of the opinion that they would want stann to win because a loss would have made him nearly irrelevant in the LHW division. now they have a REAL LIVE MARINE fighting in the octagon representing our armed forces and showing off how tough they are. to bad for stann, because his fight with cane was great and showed that he has improved since moving to the big show where cantwell seemed to have faltered.
EraldoCoil said:Wait, getting confused here.
Steve cantwell fought luiz cane, and also broke razak al-hassans arm.
Stann got blown out of the water by Soszynski in about 2 minutes and has a drew mcfwdries ground game.
That's why I am saying it was a shocker because cantwell along with jon jones were 2 of the top future prospects that they wanted to hype.

UFC president Dana White did a radio appearance today where he guaranteed a network TV deal for quarterly UFC specials by September 15, 2009. White also spoke on Quinton Rampage Jackson pulling out of the Dec. 12 show in Memphis against Rashad Evans so he can play Mr. T in the new A-Team movie, saying:
I hate it. Im so mad at Rampage over this. Rampage is a guy that weve obviously taken under our wings the last couple of years. We really like him and done a lot of good things for him. For him to do this to me, and pull out for this goofy A-Team movie, Im not happy at all. Theyre not paying him jack. Hes giving up literally millions of dollars to play Mr. T. If you think hes gonna go in and say, `I pity the fool, and hes gonna become a huge serious actor off that role, give me a friggin break.
White finished by saying he and Rampage are no longer on speaking terms.
What the fuck?! I will trade you my 2 $240 tickets for floor tickets. What do I gotta do?TurtleSnatcher said:Wow I just got 2 more floor tickets to UFC 103.. :lol
<3 my job.
(The floor seats are $450.00 face value.. wow)
A lil slurp and burp?Bishman said:What the fuck?! I will trade you my 2 $240 tickets for floor tickets. What do I gotta do?
I'm serious. Are they just extra tickets you have? Do you have any friends that you are giving them too. This will be my roommate and I first UFC event. We have the $240 tickets but sitting floor side would be so sweet.OokieSpookie said:A lil slurp and burp?

~Devil Trigger~ said:Terrible TUF fight
Brian Fellows said:They are all going to be terrible its HW's. Its the slow, least athletic, least skilled division in MMA by far and most of these guys are scrub HW's.
I can't believe anyone was actually looking forward to this season.
the sherdog pbp said he tried to explain away his performance by saying he was sooooo sick the night before, all he did was throw up, boohoo icantclosemylips CBBrian Fellows said:Dollaway vs Silva was good for about 8 minutes. Then CB gassed BAD. CB still managed to get two takedowns and survive the 3rd even though he could barely stand to start the round. He ate a few sick knees in that last round.

SnakeXs said:Who the hell was, for the fighters, at least.
I've only seen Rampage/Rashad hype, and some people wanting to see Kimbo.
Add in the real second coach, Greg Jackson, and "getting beat" to the Kimbo thing and yeah.

SnakeXs said:Wow. Good going, guys.
If this affects Vitor tomorrow I'm gonna be furious.
EraldoCoil said:he looked sad, tired and out of shape.
we'll see how he looks tomorrow night i guess.
OokieSpookie said:He has an hour to cut the rest right or is that the weight after the hour?
polyh3dron said:It's time for Vitor to make like a supermodel and puke.
Brian Fellows said:Lets see how you do on the PPV tomorrow with all the people making their debut.![]()
Musashi Wins! said:Yea, this is a rough one. I can't even make up my mind about the main events.
