Lord of The Curry

Boooooooo. Are you a shadow sponsor for the Hannah Wong World Tour?

Not Native it seems but now they're talking cannibalism here too. Gaw-DAMN.

Thank God his daughter got 100% of the wife. What's the female version of the minotaur anyways?

FYI Canadians- Show will be live on channel 401 at 9 on Sunday night. Fuck a TSN tape delay.

Not to go racial but if this guy is Native I'm not going to be shocked at all. Okay, I went racial.

star- You're a great guy and a top poster so you know I say this with the utmost respect.......but damn your wife is cute. Well done sir.

Good point about the WAMMA title. I don't think Affliction is dumb enough to try and say anybody but Andy Silva is numero uno at 185.

It's on MMAJunkie, The Fight Network and Sherdog that Fedor and Sylvia have come to terms with a joint venture between Mark Cuban's HDNet Fights and Afflictions promotion which is run by Monte Cox to a July 19th bout at the American Airlines Centre. Matt Lindland is supposedly fighting against either Mayhem or Frank Trigg here but I don't know about the validity of the Mayhem rumors as he's a Team Quest member out of Henderson's camp in Cali. If this pans out, awesome stuff. We finally get to see Fedor taking on what's easily his biggest challenge since Mirko and Sylvia can finally get his chance to prove what he's been saying for years. EDIT by Mik: Full card: MAIN CARD (PAY PER VIEW) Fedor Emelianenko vs. Tim Sylvia Josh Barnett vs. Pedro Rizzo Ben Rothwell vs. TBA Paul Buentello vs. Aleksander Emelianenko* Matt Lindland vs. Fabio Nascimento Renato "Babalu" Sobral vs. Mike Whitehead PRELIMINARY CARD Ray Lazama vs. Justin Levens Mark Hominick vs. Savant Young J.J. Ambrose vs. Patrick Speight Brett Cooper vs. Mike Pyle

I desperately want that guy to tell the soldiers to "Respek his authoritah"

"Fresh Mex comin out the back of me"

Well, it's Manitoba. That's all I got.

That sounds about right as a co-main event, especially considering I'd heard they wanted to do Sylvia/Barnett at this show but Big Tim was also given a 180 day suspension due to his soul being taken.

Yeah, just read that. He also said that if he were an ex-champion when he'd pulled his drunken antics he would've got away with it. Either way I expect to see him fighting for another promotion as soon as his no-compete clause is up.

What did JT Money say about Rampage?

Looks like Fedor/Arlovski is in question right now. Fedor injured his right hand while destroying Big Timmy and is medically suspended for 180 days so that likely means he won't be able to train in time for the fight. Affliction will be holding a press conference in Vegas on Aug 6th to discuss the October show. In what cannot be any kind of a coincidence Tito Ortiz's no-compete clause in his UFC deal expires August 3rd so it's expected that we'll see Affliction announce Babalu vs Tito for the show in the fall, possibly now as the new main event with Fedor/Andrei being shaky.

Niagara Falls? We have two, and two Denny's. However don't take away Chili's. It's the cheapest bar at the Calgary Airport if I have to wait my flight to Fort. McMurray. Nope, Mississauga. Can't remember where it is for the life of me. Speaking of, how'd your move go?

Wait. Was that an attempt at humor?

I was chatting over Facebook with my brother about this and he seemed hyped on it. Then I got this message... "So, it has will.i.am in it.....I am considerably less enthused."

You just did a great job of making yourself look silly. - He whopped Sherk back to front. Don't fall back on that "not his natural weight class" bullshit when you know full well that the wrestling pedigree Sherk has would give any top WW today problems. Not only did GSP beat him but he beat him at his own game. - First off it was ONE groin kick. Hughes himself admitted that the second kick hit him in the upper thigh and more or less paralyzed the leg at that point so the kick was not only totally legal but the fight itself should've continued. - Glass jaw? This is the same fighter that took hard shots from BJ Penn for three rounds, got poked in the eye and had a broken nose and didn't drop? Yeah, glass jaw. - Since when is outwrestling and outgrappling Josh Koscheck en route to a UD something to be criticized about? Has the two opponents Koscheck has faced since been able to present him with any problems? No? Didn't think so. - I'm not going to defend the lack of training and motivation GSP had going into the first Serra fight so why do you act like it's a determining factor in the second? Serra got outclassed, plain and simple. Remember how people said that Serra only beats GSP nine times out of ten? He had his one chance and made the most of it. - "Beat Hughes again when he didn't really train and was starting to go downhill" = Destroyed Hughes even worse then the first time and it was a hard pill to swallow for Serra fans (which you clearly are) because they realized the end was near. I'm sure you're a knowledgable guy but you just looked retarded there. You know why people cream themselves over GSP? Maybe it's because he has one of the best resume's out there. There is no fighter in MMA history that had the run he had before beating Hughes the first time. No fighter in the game went through the top five in his weight class (Trigg, Sherk, Penn, Hughes) en route to a mashing like he dished out to Hughes in their second fight.

We don't get many Applebee's up here but the one I went to was heinously mediocre. Haven't been back, wouldn't want to.

The one thing that I can say right now that's going to suck is that it's a 99.9% lock that this movie is going to be PG-13. I want a goddamn adult comic book movie coming out for fucks sake.

If anybody is going to play Penguin it's going to be Paul Giamatti. Bet that.

dubq- From what I know Gambit doesn't play any kind of a role in Wolverine's story when he was first starting out. From what I can gather from the trailer this is about Wolverine and Sabretooth being recruited into the Weapon X program which is where we'll encounter Deadpool, Silver Fox and the others. Blob is for sure a villain in this, likely the same for Barnell and maybe even Gambit too. Also, from what I've read Tyler Mane really wanted in for this movie but they went with Schreiber who, it has to be said looks pretty damn good in the trailer at least in terms of voice and appearance.

So my usual nervousness about GSP losing is kicking in. This time I'm concerned about Fitch bullying him around and beating him up. GSP might be better then Fitch at pretty much everything but I think Fitch can take more punishment so I'm wondering how that will affect GSP mentally if the fight goes to the third or fourth rounds and he's tossed everything he could at Fitch but he keeps coming. I'm also wondering if Fitch will be the one to take GSP down and how Rush will react if it happens as I think that he has been on his back for less then 3 minutes combined in his UFC career. There's also the fact that if he shits the bed in this fight he'll be forever tagged with the label of "Good enough to beat a champ, not good enough to be a champ."

IIRC Deadpool had a very dark and sarcastic sense of humor so I imagine Reynolds will have no trouble with the role.
