MMA News and Notes

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i think all of those guys kick his ass

an interesting fight to me would be against bisping. I believe bisping called him out after the Anderson fight

it's an interesting match up and it makes sense. neither guy is gonna get a title shot and it looks like a fun fight on paper
 
That would be interesting.But I think gregard mousasi will be the next middleweight champion hes beaten guys like hector lombard,keith jardine,mark hunt, melvin manhoef and so on to bad vitor belfort turned down that fight it would have been a very good stand up fight.
 
Why would he go through all that effort to return just for one fight? that doesn't make sense. your drive would be much stronger then that to be able to survive the hell of rehab.

he's known around the mma world to be kind of a weird dude.

he trolls people a lot. he'll say one thing and do another. he said pre fight that he's back and feels like he's starting his career all over. but then he hints that he may stop fighting because his family is begging him to

it's anyone's guess what he's gonna do

plus we were just expressing what we would want him to do. it's up to him, dude's a grown ass man, he can decide what he's gonna do

I've been a moose fan for a while. been rooting for him so bad, but I gotta disagree.

I don't think moose is gonna get the gold in the ufc. his best chance would be to drop to ww. and I don't think that's possible for him. so far he's had two chances to put himself into the title picture and he lost both of them decisively. i think he loses to any top five in the division
 
My bad, you want the man to bust his ass rehabing for just 1 fight and then ride off into the sunset. Totes make sense.

Anyways, I'll be glued to my seat for tonight's event.

oh and you want a dude pushing 40 who possibly may have been using steroids so he can quickly recover to step into the cage again, who's clearly not the same fighter, who got knocked unconscious and broke his leg in his last two fights who will now be 0-2-1 in his last 3 after this past one gets overturned into a no contest to continue doing what he's doing even though he should call it quits since the top of the division is full of prime young animals who he probably couldn't beat anymore?

ok

and i'd have been fine if he never came back to fight nick. but if he must, he should only do these fun fights. no more gunning for the title. he made a disclosed cool mil for this fight with nick. maybe more behind closed doors. so yea, i'd be fine if he quit after this fight, especially following the failed tests
 
Yes, after BUSTING his ass to recover, he should push for whatever his heart desires. otherwise he should've just retired.

I say this forany athlete. Kobe just had surgery. I think he should've played in the all star game this weekend with one arm and then retire or just retire. I don't think he should go through 9 months rehab to play one game or one month next year then retire. If he goes through that, I'd expect and think he should play another year or two. I'm not sure you realize how much work goes into rehabbing. It's much easier to hang em up and eat however you want. Just the commitment of sticking to a diet and staying in shape while part of your body can't function alone is why I think these warriors need to keep going. That's HEART. THATS DESIRE. THATS GUTS! if they didnt have it they would've already done retired

Now, fun fights may be the safe route but what warrior with guts takes the safe route?

even though I would've been ok if he never came back, I believe that in his mind, he's like, "I'm not going out on two devastating losses."

that's not a taste i'd want in my mouth after an all time great legacy I spent my whole life building.

I would hope he's smarter than previous fighters who are passed their prime but have too much heart for their own good and continue to keep fighting. look at chuck Lidelle, or evander holyfield, and many others who now have slurred speech due to having too much heart and too much guts and too much desire

these warriors would've done themselves well by taking safer routes at the twilight of their careers

fans that truly care for their favorite fighters truly should wish them to hang em up. those who keep wanting them to push through and continue taking blows to the head and who will volunteer themselves to feed baby food and bath and wipe their arses later in life when the damage catches up can keep rooting for their return to the top.


but not me. I mean, the dude needed steroids to return man. if you can't do it legally and cleanly, maybe that's your body telling you it's time to hang em up. these guys take blows to the head for a living. not the same as throwing a ball through a hoop. that's why I don't like comparing full contact combat sports to ball sports
 
The sport may be different but the effort that goes into rehab is all the same. if you truly think he should hang it up for safety, I can respect that. if you think he should hang it up just cuz it'll look better, then it's illogical to put yourself through rehab for one fight. It's clear from everything he's said from the minute he got hurt that he wanted to continue his career. Not create sumo's feel good story ending
