gotta disagree with danny downes here

how does william howard taft make your top 5 presidents u dont wanna fight? taft was a big fat dude, and while he might present stylisctic problems to a fighter as small as downes how can he be picked over George Washington. Washington was a really big muscular dude and pretty much just a badass. hell i’d probably pick him to come second in a presidential battle royale outside of the maniac who was Andrew Jackson

zachary taylor is the little known president though who would totally kick your ass, a 40 year military career and the nickname “old rough and ready” would make me wanna just pick a fight with FDR and jimmy carter

Don't shortchange Lincoln.

Long, strong, and wrestling was his favorite pastime as a child. I’d stay away from the dirty fighting crack shot that was Andrew Jackson in a gunfight, don’t know how he’d fare without a pistol. TR, of course, is one of the earliest american MMA enthusiasts. He might be my top seed.

jackson was just a crazy gritty dude, i mean his biggest military victory came in a war that was officially over. he’d be fighting like pride era wanderlei out there

and lincoln vs washington would be a battle for the ages i forgot about lincolns wrestling backround and the staredown would be totally epic

but how can u argue for teddy roosevelt as a top seed, TR just looks like a man who could beat the shit outta u

Speak softly and carry a big stick. This guy wasn’t about all dat talkin. He had a crew called the “Rough Riders.” The precursor to DMX. These guys laid the wood and went on random rampages tear-assing anyone that stood in their way.

well, to be fair

Downes may be referring to the weight class difference between himself & Taft.

Taft would totally be in Butterbean or Bob Sapp’s weight class.

I’m an idiot, when I was scrolling down this post and noticed “Jon Fitch in OZ”, my first reaction was a really confused one as I imagined Fitch on the show Oz as opposed to him in Australia…

I hope McCorkle wins so we can continue to have his tweets highlighted.

Unless, that is, Morecraft is just as good a tweeter!

So they gave her training cards to sign before the real trading cards are released.

what happenened to fighters not givin a flip and fightin whoever they are put in front of?

by zuffazombie on Jan 12, 2011 2:00 PM EST up reply actions  

As the money involved went up,

many if not most fighters have become far more selective in who they will fight. Most of them just keep it quiet when they decline a bout, rather than publicizing it…

because sometimes fighters are put in front of you & then suddenly taken away when everyone cries rematch

besides Florian put himself in the front, not Joe Silva

by tigerlee on Jan 12, 2011 5:20 PM EST up reply actions  

Not really. He just pushed him aside.

Regardless of what happened in Guida and Florian’s most recent fights there is no doubt that Florian is a superior fighter.

by truck on Jan 12, 2011 11:29 AM EST up reply actions  

There is also no doubt,

at least in my mind, that Roufus knows Florian would be a far tougher fight for Showtime than Guida, so it is not surprising…

If Dana says it’s a #1 contender’s match then you’d have to give the edge to Pettis.

It's official. Les Miles DOES NOT have a deal with the devil. He beat him Nov. 6th, 24-21.
