TWIQ: MMA Quotes for the Week of October 9 - 15

Ed Soares lets Anderson Silva know that he won't have to play with Chael Sonnen if he doesn't want to. Photo by Tracy Lee of Combat Lifestyle

CHAEL BAIT

"Let's see what the big boss is going to do." - Brazilian supermanager Ed Soares, with a line I like to use in the bedroom. (SporTV)

"My opinion is that he had his chance and tapped, he should go back to the end of the line. " - Soares, on Chael Sonnen. I wonder if this "back of the line" business applies to Lyoto Machida, 1-2 in his last 3 fights and a title shot on the horizon?

"We should recognize that Anderson only has around 4 fights left in his career." - Soares. Fool me once, Ed...

NOTE: THE WEEK IN QUOTES IS SATIRE. EXCEPT WHEN IT ISN'T.

Star-divide

THE WEEK IN CHAEL

"I got tunnel vision. I'm after the belt. Period. I'm not making any apologies or qualms about it." - Chael Sonnen (Studio MMA)

"And the rest of the cowards in the back that just want to get their faces on TV and don't want to carry any heavy water, I've got no time for those guys. All of them. Every damn one of them that isn't named Chael Sonnen is nothing but a coward." - Sonnen, water-carrier.

"When you're the greatest fighter in the world the day they've got a name for you. They don't call you a great fighter, they call you Chael Sonnen." - Sonnen. And if you're the worst fighter in the world, they call you Jason Reinhardt.

SUMMERING IN CROATIA

"You can tell by his face that the man is slow, that he is stupid and has the IQ of a child's shoe size." - Mirko Filipovic, on Chael Sonnen. European or American shoe size? (Some Croatian show that's on Youtube)

"Is he crazy? Obviously he is, but I'm not mad at him. It's just as I can't get mad at my eight month old son Filip." - Filipovic. Filip Filipovic?

"That man holds a PhD in idiocy. I'm only sorry that he is missing like 30 pounds because I would beat his ass so bad he would multiply three times." - Filipovic. Three Chael Sonnens? Make the match, Dana!

"One day I'm hoping to see him summering in Croatia, so I can iron his ass, so steam can shoot out his pompous ass." - Filipovic. "Right leg, hospital; left leg, cemetery" this is not.

BACK, BACK, BACK...NOT GONE?

"As I ramped up my training for UFC 141 my body locked up during training. It wasn't like the Lesnar fight but my back just tightened up and I froze." - Shane Carwin. I believe there's a [sic] that belongs in there, yes? (Shane-Carwin.net)

"I scheduled an MRI and the results showed that my disc in my lower back is into the nerves." - Carwin. That disc doubles as the Bloody Elbow web servers.

"My doctor gave me two options; retire and I could probably go on for a few years without surgery or I could undergo surgery and continue my career." - Carwin. And at 36 years of age with a history of back/neck issues and a steady career to fall back on, Carwin called it quits.

"I am scheduling surgery and I hope to return to the Octagon by spring or summer 2012." - Carwin. Well then. All jokes aside, good luck, but this seems doomed.

WHITE NOISE

"And believe me, I will [expletive] die before I let this not happen." - UFC President Dana White, on the recently announced Arrested Development season and movie. (MMA Junkie)

"I told him that. 'Dude, you're the unluckiest guy I've ever met.'" - White. But the Dude abides? (USA Today)

"We've only been around ten years, Bob's been promoting fights for 120 years." - White, on Bob Arum. (MMA Weekly)

"The people from Bellator have never said anything about us. I have nothing to say about them either." - White, echoing the thoughts of the MMA media. (MMA Weekly)

PARTING SHOTS

"I think if Vince McMahon and I were able to sit down at the same dinner table and break some bread that we could come up with some kind of gameplan." - Brock Lesnar (ESPN)

"He'll enter with the label of being a prodigy, but I'll be stronger because of that." - Lyoto Machdia, rehashing quotes from 2005. (Sherdog)

"What are they going to do, [are] they all going to keep beating each other up and then having another shot at him?" - Michael Bisping, on the welterweight division. (Fighters Only)

"In the three bouts I lost, I felt like I could've won. But the win somehow eluded me. I felt I could do it. I had chances, but God's will was different." - Fedor Emelianenko. GOD HATES FEDOR. (RT.com)

"[It was] just kind of trying to finish it with one big shot. You need to learn those lessons. You need to learn those lessons early on." - Greg Jackson, on Melvin Guillard's performance against Joe Lauzon. Melvin has over 40 pro fights. It's a little late to be learning lessons. (Sherdog)

"I think there’s one guy on earth right now that I would look at and say to myself, ‘He could beat Hector.’ His name is Anderson Silva." - Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney, on Hector Lombard. His name is also "Gegard Mousasi" and "Akihiro Gono." (Sherdog)

Between Mirko ironing his ass,

and his previous work carrying heavy water at a nuclear facility, thus exposing his nuts to ball breaking radiation, Chael Sonnen’s got a lot of problems.

There are so manny fighters out there that are far worse than either one of those guys. Reinhardt might be the worst 20-3 fighter in the world, but there are still a bunch of guys he beat to get those 20 wins. Shannon Ritch probably won at least a few of his 47 wins for real.
You have guys like Kenneth Allan ( http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Kenneth-Allen-13050 ), with a record of 1-30 and a bunch of guys with records similar to that. And that´s not even counting all the 0-1, one and done guys out there.

I resemble this remark and fully acknowledge that both Reihardt and Ritch would kick my ass.

Maybe not Allen, though. Christ, 1-30? At what point do you take a hint? And how bad would it be to be Cory Simpson, the one guy he not only beat but subbed with an RNC?

Cory Simpson is the worst fighter in the world!

Kenneth Allen is a 170lber. I don’t think we can find a string of people that lead to heavyweight.

I spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to get one that showed him better than GSP, but none of the people fought anyone in the UFC. Or even anything like Strikeforce. It was a big waste.

Looks like isn’t. So is a completely different situation, and Machida clearly wasn’t Dana first choice, he is there because everybody is injured and Machida never faced JBJ.

Eh, it’s still a fair point. No way Chael should be at the back of the line, maybe second or something. But I agree Lyoto is a different story altogether. He’s a former champ, and the loss to Rampage was pretty controversial.

Not a Chael fan at all, the only reason I like to see him is he is the Ultimate Villain for me.

But with that win over Stann he certainly deserves the title shot. Stann fucking CRUSHED every guy they have put in front of him a MW, the Santiago and Leben wins stand out in my mind especially. And as far as I know his tests came back clean.

And Chael made him look like a rookie, so… Yea. He deserves it. It was a fast track, but who really deserves it more? Okami has the most wins by far, and look what happened to him.

Everyone else in the division couldn’t get past Okami, they have no business in there with Anderson.

Now whether Chael even deserves a job after his hot title fight piss is another issue.

I got friends who are convicted felons so I mean I can’t really hold that against him.

They can test him all they want. He has a piece of paper that says "This guy is allowed to be on juice"

so they will find evidence of artificial testosterone in him, but it won’t matter because he filled out his paperwork.

Is there any proof he was ever granted a legit TUE?

I was under the impression he said he thought he had one because Matt Lindland is a horrible manager or something to that effect.

I got the impression from the CSAC circus that he hadn’t filled out his paperwork, and even if he did, it would have to get reviewed/approved.

-Joell Ortiz

by The Lethal Haze on Oct 17, 2011 7:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

For the Anderson fight? No, he did not.

I would assume he now has one as he was cleared to fight Stann, and we haven’t heard much about tests for 136 yet.

But no, for his hot UFC 117 piss he was suspended for 1 year, which was reduced (but still upheld) to 6 months because he showed supposedly sufficient evidence saying he was just “confused” bout how things work.

Which was then put back up to a year because he lied about conversations he “had” with Kizer.

Chael did fill a form out, but 1.not a TUE and 2. not the Pre-Fight medical form on which you list what you are taking, if anything at all. The only place he admitted to his testosterone injections was the Piss-Test form, administered during pre-fight piss tests.

Anyone who doesn’t think he was gaming the fuck out of the system to carry a high level of Test into his fight with Anderson? Well, I got a bridge to sell you.

Chael, as he is pissing:

“By the way, this shit is going to show I’m juiced to the gills. Here ya go!”

"It is hard to free fools from the chains they revere."

by Shotokanman on Oct 17, 2011 8:24 PM EDT up reply actions  

I would assume he now has one as he was cleared to fight Stann

You don’t think there’s any chance he a) stopped juicing or b) cycled properly for the Stann fight so that he’d piss within normal limits?

The impression I got from the CSAC circus was that he’d been juicing for at least a few fights, without mentioning it to anyone except maybe Lindland (certainly not to anyone working for the commission, like he did before the Anderson fight), and pissing clean the whole time. He wanted to fight Anderson mid cycle to maximize the effectiveness of the steroids…

In my opinion he knows how to cycle properly and beat a piss test he knows he has to take.

Why isn’t Sonnen gunning to avenge his devistating loss to Maia? Did he not, in his pov, win that fight too up until he tapped out?

by Juda_Ben_Heard on Oct 17, 2011 7:17 PM EDT via mobile reply actions  

Maia is down the ladder and does not hold the title. If he wins the championship there will be plenty of time to avenge losses, and if he loses again still time to avenge a loss. I guess a guy who beat him in his first fight back from the WEC does not interest him as much as the title. Makes sense.

Exactly. The fact that Demian Maia can almost certainly beat Chael Sonnen doesn’t mean anything. Maia had his shot at Anderson and nobody wants to see that fight again.

And all respect and everything but his take down was unsuccessful and it was as if he was a dog humping my leg.

man, I’d love to see a Mousasi-Lombard rematch.

Mousasi takes of it … wherever the fight goes.

That would be a great fight at 185. But since Gegard is involved it’s LHW or HW only.

im probably the only person who might think this

But Hector Lombard isn’t that special. I think someone like Keith Jardine could squeak a decision, hell Shlemanko didn’t do that bad at all against him. I got a good laugh at Bjorn saying Anderson is the only fighter he knows that can beat Hector.

Agreed

I see 1 or 2 favourable matchups in the UFC but I’d bet the house on him getting exposed bigtime against the majority of Top 15 guys.

Too bad it will never happen with the Bellator champions clause. Here’s hoping Vianna can beat Shlemenko and then submit Hector.

I really like the idea of Shlemenko winning, nothing against Vianna cause I like him, but his chin is a little suspect and Shlemenko as look good physically in his last few fights. And I think he doesn’t match up well against Hector, but ill definitely route for him if he does end up fighting him.

Shlemenko lost to Hector (semi) recently, and I can’t see him winning again, thats why I want Vianna to win.

Machida was the only logical choice.

I think he has the best chance too. Also he hasn’t fought bones, but yeah Silva needs to fight Chael right away.
