Davis seems like he's got a lot more to say these days.
And he thinks he can take out Jones? LOL
No, you're not drunk. I am this good-looking.
Why wouldn't he?
I love me some Jon Jones, but Phil Davis probably presents the biggest threat to him. Plus if he doesn’t think he can beat anyone in the UFC then he might as well not be in it.
Dear Zuffa: Please stop adding audio during the waiting periods before your streams start. It is pointless and annoying.
I would have a horseshoe surgically implanted in my ass just so Brock would pull it out and beat me over the head with it while I pleasure myself.

hey the music is is a step up from the shitty "whooshwhoosh" sound that they used to do
follow me on twitter @polyh3dron
I meant all audio; silence until the stream starts so I can just leave the page open and hear when the press conference starts. I don’t like the promo previews before the PCs either; it’s dumb because Zuffa knows only the hardcore fans that are already buying the event bother to tune in for the press conferences, and they don’t need the extra advertisements to entice them.

y'know, you can mute it.
it’s useful so we know that the stream’s audio is working properly.

That would the practical reasoning behind my complaint (leaving the player on and the page open until the conference starts), as explained above.

Note that chael has all the attention
he knows what he’s doing. You’ve got one of the best fighters in the UFC on the stage — Evans — and he’s playing second fiddle to a guy with 11 losses.

It’s not that he’s ashamed it’s probably another way for him to get a reaction out of people that do know how much he digs pro wrestling.

the most entertaining press conference in a while
not so much for Sonnen who is really starting to annoy me but the trash talk between Davis and Rashad got me hyped up
I am a huge Chael fan but you could be onto something ? watching the press conference today was the first time his stick/act started to annoy me, it seems that maybe he is playing the act out now ???
it's all scripted now
before he was quick on his feet to answer questions, often in a funny way, but now he just uses the questions as a cue to unleash his prepaired WWE statements
Just left the conference...
I work right by the hotel where this was held, so I went during my lunch and got to attend my first live presser, pretty cool. Chael is typical Chael (either hate him or love him), same with Bisping. Shad vs. Phil throughout the entire presser was funny, Weidman definitely came off focused and hungry. Got a chance to talk to Michael Johnson also.

Is awesome. I hope he comes out in a Guy Fawkes mask with Occupy signs
This won’t be the first time I’m an underdog in a fight, and this won’t be the first time I prove them wrong.
Fun fact Michael: the only time you have won a fight that you were the underdog in was the Dennis Kang fight, where you ranged from -115 to +120, while Kang was -115 to -120. That’s pretty much even. Empty words, my friend.
