How to Interact

Today on "MMA Nation" we've got a ton of stuff to get to with two interviews plus a breakdown of The Ultimate Fighter Finale. But first: joining me for the entire program is a special guest co-host. He's the MMA lead writer/reporter at USA TODAY and a first-rate talent, Sergio Non. Sergio and I will discuss the fights last night, preview UFC 131 and discuss the Karyn Bryant-Rampage-Rogan situation.

We'll also talk to UFC lightweight Clay Guida. After his big win last night against Anthony Pettis, how does he feel hearing the news about Jim Miller being next for a title and more.

Last, but certainly not least, season 13 winner of Spike TV's 'The Ultimater Fighter' Anthony Ferguson will be on the show. We'll talk about his future, experience on the show, public perception and more.

We'll also take all of YOUR calls. It's toll free anywhere in North America, so don't be shy: 800-636-1067.

Look forward to your Bryant-Rampage-Rogan take

Particularly on UFC’s seeming disinterest in doing anything about it and what needs to happen to give them a kick up the backside.

Thanks

My hope is to unpack the issues for what they are and try to find reasonable solutions to them. We’ll see.

Jim Miller has a 7-win streak and is 9-1 in the UFC, with that loss to Maynard.

But there’s no big names on his record. Should he receive his title shot, or should beat a “name” opponent first?

Outside of Edgar and Maynard

Who else is there? Jim Miller is as deserving as any. There comes a point where you’re just eliminating contenders instead of building them.

I personally have no problem with him getting a shot.

I was just wanting to know how others more knowledgeable than me felt.

What’s going on with Sherk these days? I’d love to see him fight Guida if Miller beats Bendo to secure his #1 contendership. Putting Sherk v. Guida keeps Clay busy without ruining a potential title shot for him.

Curious what you thought of Kingsbury

Does he have a legitimate chance at becoming a player in the division, or should he just bide his time til someone makes a Randy Couture biopic, and switch to acting?

by woooburn on Jun 5, 2011 8:19 PM EDT reply actions  

I was not impressed with Kingsbury...at all.

if he was in there with a top level light heavyweight that fight would have been over in the first round.

He could do Couture but Couture does Couture…plus, I think he is more of a Frank Trigg look-alike.

sigh...

He’s a troll of the highest order but should the President of the UFC be doing that in a public forum?

I agree with that you’re saying. Brian Heminger touched on this last night talking about how Pettis was constantly keeping Guida guessing, constantly working wrist control and moving to get back up or go for a submission. Guida is a real active fighter

His win over Pierson doesn’t leapfrog him any higher up the list I’m just saying WW is a real tough division and as Luke pointed out being at 19 just shows that. Jake is a very tough opponent

Anyone see the last Fight 360 for Pac-Mosley?

Mosley wanted to quit after the 9th-10th round but Richardson wouldn’t let him?

I agree with Sergio, and this move to 145 is more or less and endgame to Kenny’s career. If the cut diminishes his skillset in anyway he’s done for against Aldo.

The more you drive the less intelligent you are.

I am sure he will come up short again

He totally went into survival mode after BJ tagged him. Aldo will make him do the same.

All Penn did in the Florian fight was wait for Florian to realize his GSP-esque game plan wasn’t gonna work and then choke him out.

Karyn Bryant-Rampage-Rogan situation

If seen a video where Rampage sits on a Reporter face and farts on her.

This “incident” hardly shocked me.
