Guest Edwin Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 I would get a kick out of a Jo Jo vs. Tecia finale. I can see them however doing Randa vs. Tecia II at the finale if they both get eliminated.
Elsalvajeloco Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 MMAjunkie @MMAjunkie 3m Josh Koscheck vs. Neil Magny targeted for UFC 184 in Los Angeles
Guest Edwin Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Kos is on a huge slump, on a immense decline, way past his prime and probably on his way out of the sport. Magny's on a big win streak, he keeps on winning fights he shouldn't, he's at the pinnacle of his career and has reached his prime. I think it's pretty obvious how it should go down and I think it would be a good idea to put money down on this fight as I fully expect Magny to be an underdog.
epwar Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Jeez, I forgot Koscheck was with the company. Looking him up, he last fought in November 2013. Any reason for him being out a year?
Elsalvajeloco Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Just wanted to take some time off. They offered him two or three fights this year, but he turned them all down. He still has two fights left on his current deal, and he said he will evaluate his career after those two fights.
AxB Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 The finale of TUF is only in three weeks, right? Because they've got 5 fights to get through (3 quarter finals and 2 semis) before that.
Guest Edwin Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Front Row Brian Tweeted UFC's huge announcement last Monday was the signing of... CM PUNK...
Elsalvajeloco Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 ....to do what? However, I was listening to the WO HOF show with Meltzer and Sempervive this afternoon and someone asked a CM Punk to Bellator question. Dave said that was an interesting question to ask today and then outright skipped it. That was....peculiar.
epwar Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 He did show up in a Gracie Breakdown video a few weeks back. UFC: Where it is too damn hard to create new stars, we just import them.
Elsalvajeloco Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 CM Punk is. I am not sure regular Phil Brooks is. Michael Carroll @MJCflipdascript 39s The location for the second Fox show of 2015 will be announced tonight.
TheVileOne Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 Consider it was FRB writing it. His track record is about as legitimate as Latino Review's El Mayimbe. Didn't he say ZUFFA was going to fire Anderson Silva if he turned down the rematch with Sonnen in Vegas?
epwar Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 Consider it was FRB writing it. His track record is about as legitimate as Latino Review's El Mayimbe. Didn't he say ZUFFA was going to fire Anderson Silva if he turned down the rematch with Sonnen in Vegas? That was just him trying to do PR for his BFF Chael. FRB has been wrong so many times ("CONFIRMED: Brock is in Vegas for the UFC!") that it is just lunacy that people still listen to him. 1
Elsalvajeloco Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 Consider it was FRB writing it. His track record is about as legitimate as Latino Review's El Mayimbe. Mixed at best. He said the 11/17 presser was just going to be a media event with all the fighters. Then UFC put it on their website a week or so later afterwards saying they were going to make an announcement, which didn't happen obviously. Also, a few MMA journalists were told by their own "sources" something big was being announced. I know Meltzer said that because he mentioned it a couple times on his own show. FRB probably knows one or two people, but their information isn't really all that great. 1
TheVileOne Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 His source is probably Chael Sonnen. I like Chael, but he made a career out of being a professional liar. So if he's telling FRB it's Punk, I am still loathe to believe it.

Kevin Wilson Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 With 50 events a year you'd think they would limp back to VA sometime.
Guest Edwin Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 And I hope a return to Amway Center will be happening next year.

Guest Edwin Posted November 27, 2014 Posted November 27, 2014 Penne vs. Aisiling was another fun scrap on TUF. I think it's worth noting this was a fight featuring a former atomweight and a former flyweight so Aisiling did have a noticeable size advantage on Penne and thatms why she was struggling to take her down through the majority of the fight. Aisling seemed gassed for the majority of the third round and Penne took advantage of that and did a good job of controling Aisilig on the ground and staying on top in that last round. Penne needs to work on her stand up though cause if she faces a more technically sound striker like Jo Jo, she's going to get rocked a bunch of times or is going to get knocked out.
