ESPN's "MMA Live" Episode 14

by Chris Nelson on Aug 14, 2008 10:25 PM EDT in News Comment 5 comments

The good news is Kenny Florian's back alongside Frank Mir, John Anik and (cough) Franklin McNeil; the bad news is an ESPN spokesman says we won't be seeing the show on TV "anytime soon."

Haha, I missed a few shows but this one is pretty funny, Mir adds a lot to the show I think, especially the commentary about Lensar.
McNeil seems to have inside knowledge that Herrings team was taunting Lesnar and his crew prior to the fight hence his post fight antics. I haven’t heard this anywhere else so I wonder where McNeil got his info but it does shed some light on the showboating by Lesnar.
The episode is worth a watch gents.

I thought Dana white mentioned something at the press conference after the show. But I may be wrong.

Regarding McNeil, he’s earnest and means well, but he kind of bothers me. He just comes across as really awkward and not always on the ball with his opinions.

Totally off topic BUT: Did anyone else catch todays Contender Muay Thai on versus? If not do yourself a favor and check it out. If they didn’t send them boys home after that unofficial fight, why should the UFC ever worry? Anyway it’s the one where the captains fight, John Wayne vs Rafik.

Heath was on the beatdown radio show @ sherdog and he said there was no backstage smack talk – the only thing Heath was upset about was that the UFC wanted Heath to come out first. He complained and they changed it to Brock coming out first. That’s it.
