TheDetroitRedWings 286 Report post Posted September 22, 2009 I would hardly consider Franklin done because of that loss. I'm not talking about just this loss. Franklin has lost 3 of his last 6 fights. Yeah sure he can still be an MMA fighter. But in terms of thinking of him as a champ? HE'S DONE. He will never hold a championship belt again. 1 RedWingsin2011 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edicius 3,269 Report post Posted November 16, 2009 Figured this would be the right place for this bit of news: UFC heavyweight champ Lesnar seriously ill Some rumors have gone so far as to say that he's actually dead, but Dana White is saying otherwise.

Green Wing 26 Report post Posted December 13, 2009 BJ Penn fairly gave Diego Sanchez a licking yesterday - though I'm always more concerned about him licking his gloves after laying down a bloody beating. I mean, Jesus, communicable diseases anyone? He's good though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, Jesus, communicable diseases anyone? He's good though. He's not just good, he's the best 155 lbs fighter ever. If GSP was BJ Penn's size BJ would have destroyed him. Pound for pound there is no better all around mixed martial artist than BJ Penn. 1 RedWingsin2011 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheDetroitRedWings 286 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 Did anyone see UFC 112??? What the hell was Silva doing??? I'm really starting to get annoyed by his antics in the ring. It was bad enough when he was mocking his opponent and literally dancing while he was fighting. But then he basically ran in circles for over a round. Can't wait for GSP to light this fool up. 1 RedWingsin2011 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, it was a pretty sorry fight. I love how the ref Dan Miragliotta walked away in disgust after raising Anderson's hand. I'm not a big fan of Dan as a ref but when he shoved Anderson to press the fight that made me . 1 TheDetroitRedWings reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Klunzo 36 Report post Posted April 19, 2010 did you watch huston alexander against kimbo. yawn. the most boring fight i have ever watched. I saw that one too..just pissed last night because I like Hendo a lot. He seemed to be so out of steam...Shields has no GnP at all..was like someone sitting on top of you flicking you in the face. I guess they were reporting Hendo dropping 18 pounds the day before the fight; my guess is he gassed right at the end of the first round...too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd love it if every one of Silva's fights ended with him doing what he did to Rich Franklin, and I agree with you to a certain extent. But as the champ, there's no need for him to go looking for KOs and give the other guy a chance to catch him with a counter. Not that I think that could ever happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted August 14, 2010 As the Province of Ontario is currently carrying a deficit of over $20 billion, they are hoping that regulated online gambling and this will bring in needed monies; from Toronto Star : The UFC is coming to Ontario.Josh Rapport, the general manager at Toronto BJJ, received the text message this morning. “If a politician even coughs that they’re going to revisit the issue everyone freaks out and says, ‘It’s coming, it’s coming,” he said. In a rare Saturday announcement, the province confirmed the first mixed martial arts event would likely be held in 2011, with 10 to 15 events annually. Rapport’s phone hasn’t stopped buzzing. Adopting the same rules of other North American jurisdictions, Ontario joins six provinces and 46 states that have already regulated the sport. “Ontarians have told us they want to see this. They want the choice,” said Sophia Aggelonitis, Minister of Consumer Services. ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted September 21, 2010 Chael Sonnen failed his UFC 117 drug test What a ******, especially after talking s*** about other guys that did the same thing.

seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) I'll definitely be watching. BJ's the man. And as boring as he is, I like Fitch, too. Sotiropoulos is fun to watch, and of course it's fun to watch Bisping fight so I can hope that he gets KTFO'd. Hard.
