(expletive) UFC



This is the last straw.  With the news that the UFC has been employing yet ANOTHER cheater, I am done with them. Follow me for some awesome insight and totally unbiased writing after the jump.

Star-divide

Chael Sonnen has been popped for cheating.  As we all know, this is a grave transgression against mankind and he should never be allowed to fight again.  If I had my way, he would go to prison for 40 years.  This is on the heels of another title contender, Shane Carwin, being linked to steroids in the past.  I threw up just writing this; I was so mad.

Add to this fact that the UFC continues to employ Sean Sherk, Nate Marquardt, Chris Leben...I mean, I am outraged.  Sure, Strikeforce employs fighters who have cheated, but that is TOTALLY different because I like Strikeforce.

But you think steroids are the only travesty here?  How about the fact that the UFC gave fights to Phil Baroni and Gilbert Yvel?  THEY ASSAULTED OFFICIALS!!!!!1!!1!  Sure, Strikeforce employs some fighters who have struck people after the bell or started a brawl in the ring, but again - I like Strikeforce, therefore I will plug my ears, move goalposts, and do everything in my power to ignore these facts.

To sum up: Chael Sonnen and the UFC have hurt America today and you should all boycott their shows.

Kind of a shame

They’re both very good fighters.

Will you refuse to watch Chael from now on, for being a hypocrite? Do you turn off the TV every time Gilbert Yvel or Mike Kyle have a fight, because of their unsportsmanlike outbursts? Would you refuse to watch a superbowl with Mike Vick or Plaxico Burress playing in it? Etc etc ad nauseam.

The fact is, you’ve always seemed to be pretty critical of SF, and I do agree with Jahbulon in and of the fact that your piece comes off as a bit fake. Both Daley and Barnett are world class, and boycotting Strikeforce isn’t going to solve anything. If you really were a fan of them/ wanted them to succeed, then neither of those signings should be a shock/ surprise to you. They’re scrambling for good fighters, and guys like Semtex & Barnett who are basically UFC exiles offer a good option for them. With Josh, they’re taking a serious gamble because he’s proven himself unreliable in the past. Daley seems generally apologetic, and while his actions were inexcusable, other fighters have had similar such outbursts, and he has the benefit of his actions being in the heat of the moment.

Also, Daley doesn’t seem apologetic. At all.

But let’s be fair – this is a business, and it’s about money. Anytime you have money involved, people are going to be less scrupulous about what they do to give themselves the best chance to take home the most money. And that means pushing the rules, or going past the line and seeing if you get caught. It’s not the first time, and it’s not the last time.

Yes, I concede that Barnett getting popped 3 times is absurd, and worse than other fighters getting popped once.

But COME ON – UFC employs a bunch of cheaters and people who assault refs. Just admit this post is solid gold and that Joe Montana owns John Elway.

If you go back in a time machine and trade Elway for Montana in 84, nothing much changes in San Fran, but by the age of 28 Montana is either dead or selling life insurance.

Barnett would be the one example that, combined with the Daley signing, caused me to abandon Strikeforce. He’s a unique kind of cancer on the sport and I’d have been very, very angry with Zuffa for signing him, as well. Probably not enough to boycott, but combined with a Daley signing 24 hours later – for the record, I was very very against the Yvel signing – I’d think about it.

The intent was the same; to teach their opponents a lesson, not necessarily to put the guy out.. Babalu just had a better choke than BJ.

Not that intent even really matters in this case. They both held chokes well after referee intervention. That is the issue.

Now that I've seen (expletive) UFC and (expletive) Strikeforce

I can only conclude the WEC is the greatest promotion in MMA today, closely followed by YAMMA Pit Fighting.

You cant blame UFC

You cant blame UFC for what they dont know… I truly believe UFC will be standing behind the commission and make the right call. You cant blame the entire organization for few bad apples.
You adore Strikeforce? Well maybe we would have a surprise in their drug testing results if they actually did them…

I think you hated the UFC before this actually happen… You working for Bellator or something?

The satire

you missed it…

"The fight between Overeem and Rogers probably resembled Overeem’s prom night, with the overwhelmed opposition succumbing to a brutal pounding eventually leading to submission in the face of agony and a stay in the hospital."

Pretty sure they went out of their way to make sure Overeem was tested when the government didn’t and SF had no obligation to do so, if only just to say STFU to people like you…

But yes. This article is a hilarious potshot at Subo, nothing more.

GOLD JERRY, GOLD!

That Subo piece made me attempt to leave WKR, but after unsuccessfully spending half an hour looking for such a feature, I found out that once you’ve become a member on a SBNation blog it’s impossible to undo it. Bunk, I tell ya.

Yep, we’re stuck with each other I guess. Here’s the response I got from their support unit when I asked about it:

Horselover,

Unfortunately, once you leave a comment on a blog, the system does not allow you to leave that blog. This is done to ensure conversation continuity and integrity. We have discussed changing this functionality in the future, but this is the way it works right now.

Thanks,
Chris"

Add to this fact that the UFC continues to employ Sean Sherk, Nate Marquardt, Chris Leben…I mean, I am outraged. Sure, Strikeforce employs fighters who have cheated, but that is TOTALLY different because I like Strikeforce.
