This show kinda sucks

in my opinion.

Ariel is cool, but the others don’t know what the fuck they are talking about.

Pain don't hurt...

They're waiting for the REAL sports fans to go to sleep.

I hate Fedor fans. Then again, I hate most people. But especially Fedor fans.

Yeah, its time

to get Ariel on a major network talking MMA.

Though, he did look real goofy talking with Goldie and Rogan last night. He looked like an awkward teenager at a prom.

Go Orange(men)!

So far so good, not sure why everyone is shitting on the show, the MMA stuff is quite tolerable. Then they start talking about MLB and I’m thinking “Uh…who fights for them…oh wait…wait…fuck.”

From all reports she (Cyborg) pretty much only spars men, and has been known to put some out during training. - Rudinho479

Reese Waters is making jokes

That are causing awkward, canned laughter.

Nick Garcia is the Brian Russell of MLS but 10 times worse.

Watched about a half hour

and determined it might be the worst sports show I’ve seen.

This show is awkward

Not even Sterger can save this mess.

She's terrible

So was the host.

Mir was decent.

Only Ariel stood out. He really is outstanding. Articulate, well prepared, solid, quick on his feet, Can’t give him enough credit.

by Django Z on Aug 2, 2010 3:37 AM EDT up reply actions  

really?

I thought Mir was bad, which is a bit out of character for him. It feels like they did not prep work at all.

The follow up question should have been who he considers to be the top 8 fighters.

by goodbadugly16 on Aug 1, 2010 11:52 PM EDT reply actions  

Mauricio Rua
Lyoto Machida
Rashad Evans
Quinton Jackson
Forrest Griffin
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
Thiago Silva
Rich Franklin

by Nick Thomas on Aug 2, 2010 12:19 AM EDT up reply actions  

I'd safely call him top 4

Rua
machida
Evans
Bones

I’d also be shocked if Tito took a fight with Bones. Even if he initially would, some “injury” would pop up and scratch that fight.

Dude has run through every opponent in the UFC

How exactly do your rankings work?

Anderson Silva isn’t a LHW, replace him with Rich Franklin and you’ve got the top 8 UFC LHW’s.

any of those guys against Jones would make for a great fight and get him 1 win away from a title shot.

I think the UFC will give Jones one more "easy" win

while trying to make it look like a big step up. Someone like Tito Ortiz. Big name, not too big a challenge for Jones, retires a pain in Dana’s ass…

by trips71 on Aug 2, 2010 12:56 AM EDT reply actions  

Based on what Bones has done to his last 3 opponents heads...

with his elbows…I would be sad to see an AC let him fight Tito. Cracked skull would be an understatement.

I like Fedor, it’s just his fans that are intolerable...and his management.

by Razreshat on Aug 2, 2010 7:39 AM EDT up reply actions  

Tito has an opponent.

Don't believe a word I say, I don't train BJJ.

best fight at this point is him fighting whoever doesnt pull out of the ortiz-hammil fight

by hewsdaddy on Aug 2, 2010 1:24 AM EDT reply actions  

Exactly

Either he gets Tito like I said earlier, or he gets to avenge his only loss.

by trips71 on Aug 2, 2010 2:03 AM EDT up reply actions  

wait are u kidding?

his ’loss" really doesnt need to be avenged and i dont wanna see tito get carried away on a stretcher

and i dont wanna see tito get carried away on a stretcher

by argyle on Aug 2, 2010 9:43 AM EDT up reply actions  

I thought I even remember Dana saying that it was an unnecessary rematch at this point. Only way it would become relevant is if Hamil somehow has an epiphany so to speak in his skills and starts wrecking his opponents.

by YoungGun on Aug 2, 2010 10:12 AM EDT up reply actions  

Does anyone even have Ortiz in the top 25 at LHW?

Why would Dana say he’s fighting a top 8 guy and then put him in against the 30th best LHW in the world?
