BUT DANA LIED TO YOU AND USED YOU AND YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO FIGHT MACHIDA AND DANA IS YOUR ENEMY NOW!

Oh, Rampage! You fickle, fickle, soul.

If I were Rampage, I wouldn’t have been mad at Dana BEFORE he bought me the car. I wouldn’t have been mad at him for anything short of sleeping with my wife and peeing in my shoes after Dana bailed me out of jail and ran damage control for my stupid ass. But that’s why Rampage is on television and I’m not.

At this point, I think everyone is aware as to what makes Rampage happy and what he considers a loyal friend should do for him. It always seems to involve $$$.

Ah, but would he have bought you a car if you weren’t mad? It seems his anger was largely a negotiating tactic (that seems to have worked, at least to some extent).

I'm gonna make a bold prediction here and say Cain "pillowhands" (as some of you have called him) lol Velasquez catches Nog right on the chin and finishes via strikes on the ground. Nog looked good against an old Randy. It didn't show me much. We’ll see.

challengers don’t have stock tints in the side back windows, a simple google image search will show you that. coupled with the recent issue with dan henderson’s tint on his car given to him by the UFC, truck’s comment made perfect sense. … well, all that and rampage’s recent driving record, if people could see in his car that it’s him, they might flee and cause a wreck of their own :D

That’s a pretty rad GTO (or is it a charger) but even if it’s completely murdered out and customized it couldn’t cost more than the Range Rover they gave Hendo.

by inadvertentgroinstrike on Mar 4, 2010 9:46 AM EST up reply actions  

Wow, I wonder if that is an implied insult. The Dodge Challenger is a fat, heavy car with an inferior engine. Either the new Mustang or the Camaro would leave it in the dust. And they cost about the same.

Or Dana has no taste in cars.

The $42000 Challenger SRT8 has basically the same horsepower and torque as the $30000 Camaro. The Camaro is actually a bit fatter than the Challenger, granted. The upcoming 2011 Mustang also will pretty much match the much more expensive high end Challenger. For about the same as the high end Challenger you could get a Shelby Mustang, which has 100 more HP.

And you can’t even get the any Challenger with a stick, which is mind boggling to me and is a really awful thing for a performance car. It’s the only performance car I’m aware of that doesn’t at least have the option for a manual.

It’s a car for Mopar fans only. There are a lot of cars that are vastly better cars in the same price bracket. There are quite a few cars that match it that are much less. In short, the last car anyone should be blowing 40grand on is a Challenger. There are so many better options. Dana White has a lot of very very very nice cars. He of all people know this. When a billionaire with a garage full of Porsches gives you a Dodge Challenger, it’s a backhanded gift.

Ahhh wrong on so many levels..

The 2010 Challenger R/T and SRT8 are availible with the six speed manual pistol grip tranny with a dual stage clutch…Biatch…

How much does the awful riding shelby GT 500 cost?? it was around $52Gs…

I have a charger RT and that bitch is HeAVY, but I have a few mods and it will run…
SOmeone I know has a new Camaro, their grandma owns a dealership, that bitch was $42,000 and is a 400 HP automatic…
Dont sleep on the Automatics though…The 400HP Camaro posts better 0-60 times than the 422HP manual tranny…Automatics are faster than manuals…
The best part about the camaro is what it looks like from the outside…the ride is NOT good…

Challengers and Chargers have mercedes based suspensions…

by Jadrig on Mar 4, 2010 1:20 PM EST up reply actions  

With the difference in price between the

less expensive Challenger SRT8 and the shelby GT 5oo..

You can put a blower and some extras on the Challenger to make it much faster than the Cobra…

Also, Dana had a Hemi 'Cuda built

Hemi=6.1liter V8 425BHP

  Same specs with manual trans +422BHP
Mustang has a tiny engine with a blower on it…
Look up SMS X Dodge Challenger…
Steve Saleens new line up…540 HP or 700 HP stock, with factory warranty…
Camaro is a piece of shit…
Mustang = awful ride with live rear suspension…
Challenger=much better ride due to the extra weight…

They are paying him his contract. Don King was stealing money from his fighters and taking the majority of their cut. This isn’t even close to the same.

Unless you’re taking the “i coulda been doing movies” argument but that’s not them fucking him out of money either. That’s him having to be a big boy and fulfill his obligations.

by VirtualBalboa on Mar 4, 2010 11:41 AM EST up reply actions  

Sorry, I meant that his contracts were so one sided that even if Iron Mike was making $20 million on a fight, King was pocketing the majority of it. He had these problems with a lot of fighters so it’s not a one time issue.

And UFC contracts aren’t one sided? They don’t have problems with a lot of top name fighters?

by VirtualBalboa on Mar 4, 2010 12:00 PM EST up reply actions  

Difference is that the boxing model has him basically taking the big cut as a promoter fee. The UFC is paying what is in the contract. It’s apples to apples so trying to make the point you’re trying to make is ineffective.

twitter.com/thisredengine

by Matthew Roth on Mar 4, 2010 12:01 PM EST up reply actions  

Promoter fees weren’t the problem with Don King Promotions. Fighters were paid as contracted, cuts removed as contracted. Both the UFC and Don King were sued numerous times and both have yet to lose, only settle. Both have plenty of problems with their fighters complaining about money.

by VirtualBalboa on Mar 4, 2010 1:23 PM EST up reply actions  

I've said it over and over again

that money is less of an issue than image rights. The UFC pays guys what they can, and the pay is steadily increasing. Mid-tier guys make comparable pay in MMA as to boxing.

Image rights are something that they could easily leave with the fighters, but instead demand ownership of. It’s not necessary. If anything it would supplement fighter pay, being able to license their image out to Fathead, Round 5, Jaxx, and all that good fun. It’s more profitable for the UFC this way and makes the video game production marginally smoother so we understand why they do it, but it’s something not needed that hurts the fighters.

Negative, you haven’t unless you are a lawyer or manager or a fighter. These contracts are confidential and sharing details with associates would mean breaking said contract. Again, you can be a big boy or you can continue the “I’m important, I know fighters” argument. I hope you take the former because taking the latter means you come off just looking for an argument and as I said, I’ll check out at that point.

Because Rampage is a prima donna. And the only thing to do with prima donnas is either ignore them until they go away, or pander the hell out of them. The only reason to do the second is because some prima donna’s, like Rampage, can make you a ton of money if they actually decide to apply themselves.
