A few updates on what's been going on in the MMA Twittersphere.
SCHIAVELLO TWITTER CONTEST
"Guys you have to guess the SYMBOLISM of my two watches I wear on TV. They are set to different times. What are they and why?" -Michael Schiavello, tweet your answers to the voice, or do it via facebook (just search "Michael Schiavello").
"Some great prizes up for grabs including: 3 x TapouT T-shirts, hoodies or caps -- your choice, 1 x MMAJunkie T Shirt, 1 x e-book BLOOD ON THE RISING SUN, 1 x Bottle of Wine from FOX FM's Dave Higgins" -Michael Schiavello, pretty reasonable prizes, and since no one has guessed it yet, maybe BE readers could take a stab at it?
"Can anyone figure out the symbolism of why I wear two watches on broadcasts? ONE watch is set to a particular time - clue.... In addition to that, let me say that it's pretty basic yet symbolic...." -Michael Schiavello
"Just to get this point made: THE TWO WATCHES HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TIME ZONES. Keep guessing... Looking back at ALL THE MANY guesses all I will say is that ONE OF YOU is VERY close... AGONISINGLY SO!!" -Michael Schiavello
"One watch is stopped on a certain time which has a great meaning. The other watch is not stopped and also has a meaning" -Michael Schiavello
UPDATE - Contest is Over:
We have winner(s)! CONGRATULATIONS I will post winners names, prizes and the answer on my website www.thevoiceofficial.com on Monday!

the fact that you used “noob tube” and “strategy” in the same sentence baffles me.
and no, mw2 doesn’t require strategy, or skill. but I was kidding as far as calling them n00bs, as far as I know they could be CAL or CPL level players.

It's okay

"For some reason Dana White doesn't like me, and I don't care enough to find out why. So he can go pound sand up his ass as far as I'm concerned."

the voice is just irritating. i probably like him the LEAST of all mma commentators. the fact that his inane shouting overshadows his play by play and semi-knowledgeable insights……..is just proof of how over the top he is. he’d be perfect if he was screaming in japanese like the chick who used to MC the opening of Pride events.
