I think you might be right.

Who is lined up for Munoz? I thought Bisping would end up fighting him for number 1 contender

I thought Munoz was out for quite a while. I thought he was out 'til September (really can't remember where I got that from though)? If that's right then he might be back in time for the winner of Belcher-Palhares?

Oh shit yeah he got injured didnt he. Forgot he shoulda been fighting Sonnen originally.

I hope Bisping does finally get a shot at Silva. I honesty think he would give him a run for his money.

Dana white interview

Q: As you know, we love our hockey here. And it remains the only other pro sport that allows fighting. Curious as to your thoughts on fighting in hockey?

A: I’m not a big hockey fan. But I respect how talented you have to be to play hockey. Soccer? That’s a whole other ball. Can’t stand soccer. It’s the least-talented sport on Earth. There’s a reason three-year-olds can play soccer. When you’re playing a game when the net is that big and the score is 3-1 (and that’s a blowout) are you kidding me? You know how untalented you have to be to score three times when the net is that big? Now back to hockey. You have guys on skates with crooked sticks and you have to hit a puck into a net that’s the same size as the goalie. And at any time someone could take your head right off your shoulders and it’s perfectly legal. That’s a real sport that takes real talent, speed and all the things you need to be a real athlete. Now fighting is a part of hockey and has been since Day 1. It’s part of the game. It is what it is. I think we live in a world now where everything has been so pussy-fied. When I grew up we didn’t wear helmets when we rode our bikes. We didn’t have car seats. We didn’t have all this stuff. Now things are safer and we should be safer but let’s not go overboard. Fighting’s a part of hockey. Period.

Dana is an ignorant pile of shit. Most of what made the UFC boom was the success of TUF and he didn't even want to do it. Lorenzo thought it was a good idea. Tells you a bit about him. Riding coattails...

Kampmann v. Ellenberger

Kampmann v. Ellenberger

When's that schedueled for?

Good match that. I think Ellenberger will drop him, but it's quite clever from the UFC. If there's any set back for GSP then they've got the guy who beat Condit (on a split decision) and the guy who lost a split to him on a weeks notice. Quite marketable for them either way if anything happens with GSP rehab.

Live TUF finale, apparently.

Kampmann has a hell of a chin, and can strike with most anyone. That said, Jake is a juggernaut...good fight, indeed.

Chris Weidman

I'm guessing Micheal Bisping vs Tim Boetsch will be for a title fight
Then the two winners of Palhares vs Belcher and Munoz vs Weidman will fight for the next title fight

"Hey Dana sorry about snapping your leg with that challenge, my foot just kind of rolled over the ball. These things happen".

Would be nice.

I am lost for words. One part of me is laughing my head off the other part is thinking "Rampage... WTF???". Those comments on the video hit the nail on the head, he is looking to get fired.

Surely someone would have given him the OK to do this?

Its properly done my fucking head in this.

Why do fighters and their teams constantly try to push their luck?

You know your going to get tested at some point so just fucking stop it!

All it takes is some research into what substances they can and cant take. Its just stupid and lazy.
