Quote of the Day 2: Roy Nelson Would Have Stripped Brock Lesnar's Title, Lesnar "Ducked" Carwin

"All I know is, other fighters have been stripped of the belt. So why can't (Lesnar) follow right along with everybody else?

"Lesnar didn't want to fight (Carwin). So he ducked Carwin; so now Frank gets him.

"I would have stripped him of his belt and left (Carwin) to fight for the real championship and not the TV championship."

Roy Nelson talks to the MMA Hour about the UFC heavyweight title picture

Nelson will take on Stefan Struve at UFN 21.

Look another fighter making comments on Brock. Guess Roys in line for a title shot now lol worked for Carwin

They would not risk Dos Santos with a fight with Nelson. Nelson smothering JDS on the ground would cost the company a ton of money.

How did I end up on this bandwagon and why does everything say property of Chael Sonnen?

by Day Man on Mar 23, 2010 4:34 PM EDT up reply actions  

*Dont, Bleh

The UFC hasn’t seem like they really want to build JDS much, i mean they are getting on board now, but he had to KO a few people before they started to pay attention.

I agree but I’m talking about his current value to the company not his previous value.

LOL Sonnen is a freshman compared to Toney.

Ricky Hatton came closer to beating Manny Pacquiao than Marquez did to beating Floyd.

I think Lesnar purposefully put a hole in his intestine and let his bowels seep into his body just to duck Carwin!!

by Polyhedron on Mar 23, 2010 3:59 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

absolutely not

but anybody else would of been stripped by now. That’s what I was referring to, I guess I could of made that more clear.

Anderson Silva hasnt defended since April 09

was he stripped?

How about Penn? Lightweight wasnt defended from May 08 to August 09 was he stripped?

GSP and Brock last defended their titles at UFC 100 the only difference is GSP is getting ready too while Brock is waiting out the winner of Mir/Carwin.

by bigdmmafan on Mar 23, 2010 3:59 PM EDT up reply actions  

it’s a different situation with those Champions as they had no worthy competition and had to wait for contenders to emerge while at HW there are a long list of worthy contenders that will test brock

by Hendar on Mar 23, 2010 4:04 PM EDT up reply actions  

bs

There were challenges at lw, Penn chose to go up and test GSP.

But your acting like Brock could have defended the title and chose not to. Up until January no one even knew if Lesnar was gonna fight again and now he has to put back on weight and get back in too fighting shape.

by bigdmmafan on Mar 23, 2010 4:07 PM EDT up reply actions  

Indeed: Florian ended up taking the Joe Daddy fight after already earning the title shot for beating Huerta. He still got his shot in the end and BJ wasn’t ducking him, and BJ wasn’t defending for a less serious reason than Lesnar.

by AJB on Mar 23, 2010 4:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

and actually same with Silva

maybe he didnt have any competetion right after the Leites fight but after he fought Griffin he could have fought

Dan Henderson – just ko’d Bisping at UFC 100
Nate Marquardt – just ko’d Maia at 102
Vitor Belfort – just ko’d Franklin at 103
Yushin Okami – on a 3 fight winning streak

any 4 of those were worthy competetion but Silva had the “elbow deal” and so he wasnt able to defend until 112.

by bigdmmafan on Mar 23, 2010 4:19 PM EDT up reply actions  

when Mir had his motorcycle accident, they made an interim title. only after 14 months and still not being recovered did they strip his title

Rogan: "No, no he's not. No."

BS

The only person to be stripped due to injury is Mir. And that was only after he pulled out of his first scheduled fight after being out for a year due to injury.

by Phildo on Mar 24, 2010 9:01 AM EDT up reply actions  

and he’s also not right about stipping the title. Mir-Carwin is still for the interim title. When Brock comes back, he’ll have been out a year, which does not require stripping the belt, just and interim title

Goldie: "Michael Jordan-esque in his grappling skills is Travis Lutter."
Rogan: "No, no he's not. No."

by Stillberry on Mar 23, 2010 3:44 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah I guess your right, I hate the whole “interim” shit. I believe that a fighter should get first crack when they come back but should non-the-less be stripped of their title.

i guess the idea is that if a guy doesn’t actually lose a match, he doesn’t lose his belt unless he’s out for significantly more than a year. then, instead of just having guys sort out contendership while the champ is out, you create an interim belt so you can sell more title fights and make more money.

i agree with you that it’s annoying, but it’s a business decision. we may know where the fighters stand regardless of the belt situation, but not everyone does

Also, I found the TV championship reference kind of odd. It seems like Nelson is implying Carwin and Mir are fighting for some lesser title when they’re essentially fighting for the number one contendership. Whoever wins this fight will face Brock in the end, and if Carwin doesn’t win he probably shouldn’t have been fighting for a title anyways.

Without pain, without sacrifice, we would have nothing.

by lowellthehammer on Mar 23, 2010 3:59 PM EDT reply actions  

WCW had the TV title,

it was intended for the likes of william regal.

HI YAH!

by Thats It For you! on Mar 23, 2010 4:19 PM EDT up reply actions  

Easily.

Regal doesn’t have magic ninja bad-guy-detecting eyes like Seagal does on his cop show…

u watch seagals cop show?

i dont know if id ever admit to that

i wouldn't say watch

so much as ‘have watched’….

curiosity got me.

by Hatfield on Mar 23, 2010 4:28 PM EDT up reply actions  

That show is ultimate bad ass...

Seagal is busting crooks and using “magic ninja bad-guy-detecting eyes” lol… I saw a couple episodes and they were amusing.

In one episode they pulled over an old couple (probably around 65) who was driving down the freeway with their trunk and rear passenger door wide open.

The old lady in the passenger seat was giving the cops the finger as they pulled them over.

She apologized and said she was pissed off because everbody was honking at them and they didn’t know why.

It was intended for Rob Van Dam

Jds would be embarrassed by Nelson

Big country tko by countra-fix rd 1. We learned Jds’s td defense is not world class in the Napao fight. Dana would hate Roy even more.

Roy can really stir the pot. I can’t wait for Undisputed ’10 to see what a body kick does to him.

I imagine Roy has a lot of experience stirring pots. And then drinking their contents in one gulp.

by Verklemptomaniac on Mar 23, 2010 6:45 PM EDT up reply actions  

oh right Roy, I like you; but that was about the dumbest comment I’ve seen in a good while

Brock cannot duck someone for very long first of all since he is the champ; so Carwin could just earn another title shot soon enough. Not to mention that he had a freakin medical issue; not exactly like he was whining about a sore shoulder or something.
