Is it just me or has MMA/UFC fallen off real hard...

[Starburst]

I really dont see the big deal about a Diaz/Silva fight. Diaz is cool and all, but dudes antics get him gassed up more than his actual fights.

C/S everything about all the wrestlers at 205, ill add Bader(even though hes a meathead) Phil Davis(717 stand up )

Gassed up in what way?

Like I said before its a new and fresh fight...it's not a match up anyone would have though of before but it will make for great viewing...imagine Diaz sticking his 2 middle fingers up aka the Stockton salute at Silva? Lol

Sidebar I would love to see Bader vs Hendo, even though I don't think Bader deserves it yet but they both have similar styles both wrestlers with great boxing..But we know Hendo is better

What was up with that whole eye poke on Sat Davis vs Prado?


Am I the only one disappointed in Kyle Kingsbury?

i miss the old ufc when nikkas was like fukk a weight class and just went at it. to me that was the best shyt to watch on some david and goliath shyt.

Dude gets more hype for his attitude than his actual fighting; im not saying hes a bad fighter because hes not, just my view there. But i do respect him for not giving a fukk and being apart of the"make em mad crew" which i usually rep, especially on the Boxing/MMA podcast i do.

Bader/Hendo would be full of fukkery to peep. Wonder how many H bombs Bader would walk into before he realizes he needs to wrestle

These new guys don't really have that distinctive personality/flair of the older guard. Rampage, Liddell, Wanderlei Silva, the at one time unbeatable Royce Gracie.. That' and there are too many cards and they don't build fights. One guy loses and then he gets a rematch right after. There's no real pacing to these events.

That's just the thing, i don't think he could out wrestle Hendo he will be stuck either way

Thats been more of a problem as of late. But again, thats the problem of their marketing and match making, not letting guys come up the right way. Take for instance Phil Davis. Dude was in a number one contender match against Rashad Evans a few months ago, and lost. Now dude didnt even crack the main card of a Fox card. There's no consistency or balance.

You think? I see Hendo getting taken down a lot. Especially double leg. But, dude was a Greco Roman wrestler, so i guess thats to be expected

So in conclusion, dana white is the problem? MMA might need a david stern type in there making the decisions, a business and marketing professional. No offense to dana, but he's a street guy.

nah, it's not Dana. He's brought problems sure, but the reason MMA is hitting a snag right now is outside of his control.

Nah....Hendo outclasses Bader in every way...i just thought it would be a great fight to see lol

What do you think of Kyle Kingsbury...Mann ...

nah, it's not Dana. He's brought problems sure, but the reason MMA is hitting a snag right now is outside of his control.

What do you think the reason is?

I think it's more than victories. A guy like Phil Davis looked awful in that Evans fight. Plus he's just not an exciting factor. Add in the fact he's black and of course Dana is going to punish him for a while.

I'm surprised that the Zuffa wants the UFC to be comparable on the mainstream level of other sports but Dana is still in charge. He comes across as such an irrational, hot headed meathead. Can you imagine Goddell, Stern, Selig speaking the way he does in interviews or press conferences? Or surviving that shyt that happened with that sherdog reporter? He just reinforces the stereotype of UFC being filled with ignorant retards

lol you n1ggaz gonna act like the last card wasnt dope?

Not to even mention Henderson vs Edgar... These fukking momos (shoutout Joey Karate) think they need fight of the year every week to be entertained. This shyt aint pro wrestling were u can just throw HHH in the ring with some loser and watch them play fight every Monday. nikkas got train and match up schedules.

I agree. I always talk shyt on the show about how I don't care about fights that don't feature big named fighters, but I always watch regardless.

So I guess the problem goes both ways now that I think about it.

I wouldn't say he's not an exciting fighter, but I always uldnt call him boring either. Plenty of fighters look like shyt and get opportunities. And let's drop the race card here because in this case it's irrelevant
