How's Taste My Tweet Tweet? Mixed Martial Arts on Twitter for the 2nd Week of August

2itlilk_medium

A few updates on what's been going on in the MMA Twittersphere.

 

CORNED BEEF

"@patrick_cote I think it's u that attacked me, met u and thought we were cool, then u go talk shit to a journalist, classy guy!"  -Michael Bisping, has beef with Patrick Cote.

"I would never fight Werdum!!! He is family and my boy... I repeat, I would not fight Fabricio Werdum!!!!! Someone told me a few websites said I would. Guess what!! They are wrong."  -King Mo, doesn't want beef with Werdum

"San fran chronicle says they hate UFC and would NEVER cover the UFC and were such rude dickheads to our pr girl. Hey SFC, fuck u!!!! ...San jose mercury, oakland tribune, contra costa times, west county times, valley times and many more thanks 4 ur support!"  -Dana White, has newspaper beef

"@danawhite You let half ass media that dont give a shit about MMA cover the UFC, but you wont let Inside MMA w/ Bas, Kenny , Guy in , why ?"  -Mark Cuban, Has beef with Dana.... You're asking why? It's simple. They've got the hardcores locked up, and those "half ass media that dont give a shit about MMA" are the ones who bring in a new demographic and new eyeballs to the sport.

"It's official I'm 100% back at team jacksons about to gear up and spar.. My heart is very warm at the moment ;) ...it's ww 4 now but I can't wait to show @danawhite the last fight was a unfocused fluke. Lw is always there if the fight is right-Diego Sanchez, canned his beef with Greg Jackson's

"yo boy is off 2 South Africa,going back 2 da roots lets see how they put it down over there,then i go 2 Japan,then i start the killer camp... I finally made it 2 South Africa,it was a long flight,and I could have done with out the lady next 2 me farting,btw I paid her back"  -Rampage Jackson, ate beef, and let it out.

"Still not date or opponent for me. Which is fine as I am healing up"  -Shane Carwin, is still having a hard time recovering from lactic-whachumacallitosis, otherwise known as lack.of.cardio... beef!

"For all the MMA fans out there u came real close to losing one of ya guys me and Johnny "Bones" Jones next!!!! ...@dannawhite don't be mad at me when I retire ya boy from the UFC early. U bumped into the wrong one-Andre Berto, the WBC welterweight champion has a staredown with the Martian Manhunter... Seems like a pretty fair fight.

THE ONLY PLACE WHERE YOU COULD SEE MIKE SWICK VS JON FITCH

"UFC on PSP out soon! We are so small!!"  -Mike Swick, I want one.

UFC 117 & ANDERSON SILVA'S AMAZING COMEBACK VICTORY

"I'm gonna beat Akiyama, then beat Sonnen. He can't do that to me. come on you salesman!!!! cause you can't hold me down fag!"  -Michael Bisping, either the Brit has some strong words for Sonnen, or he just wants a cigarette.

"nah just kidding, sonnen did an awesome job, was nice to see silva tested, thought he showed alot of heart..."  -Michael Bisping, said he was only joking 11 hours after the original tweet (which got deleted shortly after)

"Extremely impressed with Jon Fitch tonight. He proved he is the next #1 welterweight contender. He def improved as an athlete. Amazing... Some people just look & judge without any true knowledge of what they are looking at. Ignorance is bliss?? I'd say ignorance is sad... Someone's boring could be someone else's masterful performance. It's hilarious to hear ppl's comments when they have never trained a day in their life. We are all warriors on the couch. I know... People saying Fitch just "laid on top of Alves" = extreme ignorance to the grappling game. Grappling is an art deeper than the ocean."  -Kenny Florian

"That was a tap and a siiiiiick fight!!!!!"  -Dana White, is happy, and who can blame him? If Anderson just walked through/danced around Chael, people would still be all "mehhh" every time he fights, but now they could possibly have a rematch down the road that people would really look forward to.

"Compustrike: Silva was hit w/ 289 strikes after being hit w/ 208 strikes COMBINED in his first 11 fights. Sonnen did everything but finish."  -Jon Anik

"What an amazing performance by Chael! The ability to grind/wrestle is a powerful thing. But Chael did tap imo. Was winning the whole fight... What heart & finish by Anderson Silva. What a champion!! Rematch is in order down the line, no doubt... When Silva went back to his corner after 1st round, u could see him complain about his rib."  -Kenny Florian, this is also the reason why I put most of the blame on Maia and Leites for having a boring fight.

"Didn't feel that well in the locker room for the fight, that's why I struggled the 1st round So I decided to go all or nothing the 2nd... I heard some comments about me throwing a leg kick immediately after we touched gloves..I saw it back and yes That was not correct.. It was not my intention to get a cheap shot, it just happened in the heat of battle... Big props to Cristian for his powerfull first round, you are one strong dude and I'm sure you will be back in the UFC soon!!"  -Stefan Struve, has a very bright future in MMA. I think he should train (and eat) with his countryman, Mr. Megareem.

"Roy who?"  -Shane Carwin, after he was asked if Roy Nelson could be his next fight...

"John Fintch is a B-Level Antonio Mckee"  -Mark Pavelich owner of MFC, has B-Level spelling

"BJJ - thanks to Nogueira brothers"  -Anderson Silva, after pulling off a miracle victory via triangle choke.

"My wife caught exact moment Silva kissed Steven Seagal before entering the octagon. Gotta be 1 of a kind pic!"  -Mike Swick

Eddie Bravo and I were walking home to our hotel from some late night Chinese food in San Francisco when I truck drove up with a clear box in the back filled with strippers dancing. Pretty fucking kooky."  -Joe Rogan, the video doesn't show anything, but it still might not be safe to watch with your boss beside you.

 

ROGER HUERTA GOES TEKKEN ON A BIG BLACK GUY FOOTBALL PLAYER

"In no way do I condone street fighting, but when a guy puts his hands on a woman he deserves to be knocked the f*ck out. Good for Roger... that’s what should happen to everyone that sucker punches a woman!!!"  -Dana White

"@joerogan haven't talked to you but how awesome was roger? Super hero shit!!! Can't stop thinkin about it. Have a ton of respect 4 him!"  -Dana White

"I'm down with Roger Huerta. Karma is a bitch, and so are you if you sucker punch a chick. @rogerhuerta -Joe Rogan

"Congrats to Roger Huerta 4 being a man n taking care of business after seeing a man KO a woman in Austin, TX n then KO'g the A-Hole! Solid!"  -Bruce Buffer

Wikipedia is your friend, took me 2 seconds to look up:

In popular culture

In the late 1990s, syndicated radio talk host Jim Rome and his producer, Travis Rodgers, stayed in a hotel that was populated by Auburn alumni and other faithful. Rome mentioned on the air how he saw people greeting each other with “War Eagle”. Within minutes, callers to Rome’s show began signing off their calls with “War Eagle”, presumably because it sounded iconoclastic in the parts of the country that are unfamiliar with SEC football.

Since then, callers have taken to substituting the “Eagle” in the phrase with whatever contemporary topic happens to be at hand, e.g. “War A-Rod”, “War the fat twins on mopeds from the Guinness book”, “War Bethany Hamilton’s surfboard”, “War Fedor”,etc.

Douchery a side effect of lactic-acidosis?

Roy who? Really Shane? Roy Nelson has fought 100x better competition than Carwin has- and tbh I would put my money on Roy in a fight against Carwin. He showed on the weekend that he can def take a punch and if Brock can get the sub on you I’d watch out. Would love to see Roy crucifix him and let him have a taste of the belly

Carwin 7 KO’s Notable (T)ko’s: Gonzaga and Mir
Cigano 8 KO’s Notable (T)ko’s: Gonzaga, Struve, Werdum, Yvel

Ultimately unless you get them to punch a machine there is no way to prove who hits harder. Point is Carwin relies on his punching power and Roy showed he can take a punch so if I was him I wouldn’t be disrespecting Roy who has had a fairly illustrious career and is pretty well known due to that and the Ultimate Fighter

They both have face-melting power.

There is really no point in arguing who hits harder. They both hit hard enough to incapacitate just about anyone they connect cleanly with.

I don’t think I did.

Roy has fought two top 5 fighters and three top 25 fighters as well as a good up and comer in Schaub.

Carwin has fought two top 5 fighters and one top 25 fighter.

Looks like Roy has faced a little better competition.

by DCJon. on Aug 11, 2010 4:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

Struve isn’t a top 25 fighter. JDS wasn’t a top 5 fighter (he’s 6).

Here’s the rankings at the time Nelson fought them:

AA (3), Rothwell (unranked), Struve (unranked), Schaub (unranked), Monson (20), and JDS (6).

So, 3, 6, and 20.

Here’s the rankings when Carwin fought his guys.

Lesnar was # 1. Mir was # 3. Gonzaga was # 9.

Carwin wins. Begone.

Brock was not the #1 HW when he fought Carwin, beating Carwin gave him the #1 spot so its 2, 3, 9 and cans compared to 3, 6, 20, 23…add in the fact Schaub is a great up and comer and that Rothwell is ranked now(20) and was on a 9 fight win streak(which lasted for 13 matches which included Roy, Fulton, Ricco and Kryzstof twice) I still say Roy’s competition has been much harder

by DCJon. on Aug 12, 2010 1:07 AM EDT up reply actions  

Oh yeah, totally bro

Because he has such great technique and all, what with those sweet arm punches he throws…

I’d say Junior hits just as hard, his speed & better technique being the equalizer

he also started covering football in high school, so i think a one track mind contributes to his analysis. He see’s the x’s and o’s, knows how everything is “supposed” to work, can see intangibles, and definitely knows a ton about the more, more than most, but he could never coach anyone, because he simply doesn’t “get it.” until he puts on the pads, he couldn’t possibly.

LOL at Cuban not understanding why Inside MMA does not access to the UFC.

It’s because you are the competition Mark. The last thing the UFC wants is to help HDNet and it’s incredible non-Zuffa MMA lineup draw more eyeballs.

THIS v
“What an amazing performance by Chael! The ability to grind/wrestle is a powerful thing. But Chael did tap imo. Was winning the whole fight… What heart & finish by Anderson Silva. What a champion!! Rematch is in order down the line, no doubt… When Silva went back to his corner after 1st round, u could see him complain about his rib.” -Kenny Florian, this is also the reason why I put most of the blame on Maia and Leites for having a boring fight.

Loved the comment by Ken Flo and an EVEN BETTER follow up comment by Anton!

Good Tweet/Comment!

Actually Carwin has been having problems with his back after the fight and has a leaking disc. It’s a problem he’s dealt with since he injured it playing football

“nah just kidding, sonnen did an awesome job, was nice to see silva tested, thought he showed alot of heart…” -Michael Bisping, said he was only joking 11 hours after the original tweet (which got deleted shortly after)

Shame Bisping chickened out at the last minute. That would have made for a match-up I’d like to see.

“Roy who?” -Shane Carwin, after he was asked if Roy Nelson could be his next fight…

Stay classy, Chael Shane. Still, I think this is the match-up to make next, Roy vs. Shane.

Stefan Struve, has a very bright future in MMA. I think he should train (and eat) with his countryman, Mr. Megareem.

Lol... Between that in the intro

and the slowed down “Seagal Vision” that they use when scanning the steets, that show is epic.

I don’t know. I saw some excited faces when the people are being arrested saw Seagal. All I know is that I’d have the most WTF look on my face if I were a drug dealer getting my door busted in by Seagal.
