RE: Matt Hughes rapist rumors (circa mid 06):

 

http://www.nhbgear.com/forum/index.php/topic,66773.15.html

 

allegedly according to rumor who talked to a person in the militich camp 100% reliable source. matt broke into a team mates house and raped his wife. then showed up at training with a bible preaching about forgiveness. then dana came to town with goons and threatened her and paid her 200k or something and told her never to come back to town so she was in florida with her parents.

 

either way probably BS

TUF 4 (which I really liked) was about fighters that were good enough to make it to the UFC in the first place, and some did alright for themselves. They could do another comeback season maybe with heavyweights and light heavies maybe

[randomguy 0]

Comeback makes sense if the guy was good but got injured or something. It's not good when the guy is just mediocre. The problem with the comeback concept is that most of the guys are too old to get significantly better, you are catching them towards the end of their careers. Young mediocre guys can improve, old mediocre guys just get worse.

Man, I'm going to OD on MMA soon enough. Between the last 3 weeks, EliteXC this weekend and the TUF Finale next I'm going insane. In a good way of course. Then we get a one-week repreive and after that it's Jackson/Griffin.

Better Dan Henderson performance?

 

- Knocking out Wanderlei

- Second fight with Nog where he escapes about 1000 close sub attempts before getting arm-barred in the 3rd.

 

I might be leaning towards the second. He was 194 for the fight with Nog, so giving up about 40 pounds and despite the fact that he lost he escaped about 50 submission attemps that 99.5% of MMA fighters would have called it quits on. I think Quadros and Bas called the fight "over" about 20 times. IIRC, Dan didn't even tap on the arm-bar... it was a ref stoppage.

 

Honestly I'd still go with KO'ing Wanderlei because he actually, know you, won the fight. But his 2nd fight with Nogueira was pretty impressive.

 

As for LOTC's comment above... yes this is the one month in like the last 10 years and probably the next 10 to come when I don't have cable or home internet. Lucky lucky me.

[Lord of The Curry 0]

I'd say KO'ing Wanderlei, even though he did well against Nog I can't say somebody who was on the defensive for the majority of the fight impressed me more then being able to take down Wandy at will, take his knockout blows and return it in kind.

Making a dick joke makes you homophobic?

 

As much as me being consistently more right than Rudo makes me a dick-eater.

 

Not just a dick eater. A whole bag full of em.

Nick Diaz missed weight for his EliteXC fight in Hawaii tomorrow.

[Youth N Asia 0]

Anyone else watching MMA live on espn.com? Not a bad show, Kenny Florian is one of the hosts

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

Nick Diaz missed weight for his EliteXC fight in Hawaii tomorrow.

 

Maybe he figured out the wonders of milk chocolate and binged.

[Lord of The Curry 0]

Possible but it'd have to be real chocolate milk not that non-hydrogenated bullshit.

DirecTV is having a "free preview weekend" for all pay channels, so DTV customers like myself can watch the EliteXC show for free.

[Lei Tong 0]

Well, Diaz beats Rani Yahya (6.6 lbs) & Chris Price (7lbs.) in terms of being ridiculously over the weight limit, though he still falls shy of Luigi Fioravanti's completely ludicrous showing against Hidetaka Monma (13.5+lbs).

[Lord of The Curry 0]

Was that at 170?

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

So when did Dylan McKay decide to join EXC and become their lightweight champion?

[Youth N Asia 0]

Damn, KJ isn't getting paid by the hour

[MarvinisaLunatic 0]

I was expecting Goldberg to spear somebody at the end there.

 

I was pretty disappointed with the show, the best fight of the night was more of a boxing match..but anyway.

 

 

[Youth N Asia 0]

Nice little WWE finish there at the end...didn't look the least bit put on

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

With the way they entered and left the ring at the end there, all the Diaz brothers need now is a mannish womens fighter and they can declare themselves D-X.

 

BREAK IT DOWN!

[Lord of The Curry 0]

Aint. No. Bitch.

[Lord of The Curry 0]

Oh and WAR PEE WEE. Any 6'5 HW who tries to pull shit like this off gets my vote...

 

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

I'd be more behind him, but his stand up looks atrocious.

[Lord of The Curry 0]

Well, duh. That and he willingly gave up his back a few times. But still, KICK.

[Lei Tong 0]

Was that at 170?

 

Yes. At the D.O.G. (now Cage Force) event in Japan.

[Lt. Al Giardello 0]

I despies KJ Noons with a passion.

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

Despies? Is that like Mexican pastry or something?

Sherdog is reporting that the UFC is looking to put on a live TV special on July 19th headlined by Brandon Vera vs. Wanderlei Silva at 205.

 

July 19th is, of course, Fedor vs. Sylvia.

 

Don't fuck with Sleazy D creepy tattooed affliction guy.

 

The real winner: hardcore fans with DVR. I'll buy the PPV, record the Spike special and watch them back to back.

Umm...will Brandon Vera be ready for this? He just lost and has barely a month to train....

[Lord of The Curry 0]

So, does "live TV special" = UFN? I really like that fight but if they're expecting people to tune in for one fight with such a loaded Affliction card I don't know how well that will go for them.
