Dana, don’t fuckin lie, if Lashley gets a couple of good wins, your signing him to a deal. Or at least making the offer.

Lashley vs. Lesnar? Can you say reinforced octagon?

Just because he’s not interested in seeing Sapp vs Lashley doesn’t mean that he wouldn’t be interested in seeing Lashley fight an actual opponent that wasn’t a living cartoon character. I mean come on we are talking about someone fighting Bob Sapp here, a guy who lost his last fight badly to a guy he outweighed by 125lbs.

Why would they need a reinforced octagon for Lashley vs Lesnar?

Yeah, you are right, I have a feeling Dana is turned off more by Bobby fighting Sapp rather than Bobby himself. Should have thought that through a little better. haha

And I said reinforced octagon because it would be two of the most athletic heavyweights to fight in UFC history, and they both have a wrestling background…500+ lbs possibly getting rammed into the cage could possibly end horribly. haha

You also have to remember that they were discussing the Atencio fight too, obviously Dana is going to laugh that one off(although I am surprisingly interested to see how Tom does).

You get two of the biggest most athletically gifted amateur wresters to ever meet in the octagon in there and they would probably default to sloppy kickboxing just to make me want to gouge my eyes out, of course they’d end up with fight of the night for it too.

….just like how Dana was never interested in Kimbo and yet he’s the face of TUF 10..

The only thing stopping me from calling him out on that is the fact that he said the only way Kimbo would EVER be affiliated with the UFC is if he got on the Ultimate Fighter…

It still boggles my mind.
