Yeah, nothing shady about Pride... :rolleyes:

your taking what i said out of context. the fact is ufc cut some good fighters because they wouldnt sign exclusive rights for a video game. thats being strong armed and is bullshit imo
 
And PRIDE lost it's network TV deal and ultimately the whole company because of ties with Yakuza. Now the DREAM organization (PRIDE's remnants) isn't paying some of their fighters..

I'd rather be released from my contract than fight and not get paid at all.
 
Obviously I was initially pissed the fuck off at UFC/Dana by my posting, but the fact that it got put to bed with a positive outcome in less than 24 hours shows that the org. isn't shady.

When was the last time a baseball contract dispute was handled in a day? Or football? I fucking hate unions but I was about to call for one based on how inflammatory the initial reports were.

John Fitch is far from a star, and the fact that Zuffa managed to put out the flames and make something work for everyone in such a short time frame is the best testimony I've seen yet as to the aim and function of the organization and the sport.

How so? Whether you want to see this fight or not, it will still fill an arena and do a shit-ton of PPV buys. People have been wanting to see Chuck @ HW for a few years now, maybe this will be just what he needs to spark a comeback. Plus Randy speaks German, which seems like a perfect PR move to me considering this is the UFC's first trip to the country.

I don't know.... Shogun sure doesn't look as lean as he did when he fought in PRIDE... I wonder why... :thinking:

Is Shogun fighting at HW? I just put two and two together...Coleman is huge compared to Shogun, he is huge in general. I don't see Coleman going to LHW and Shogun IMO is a natural MW.

If both Shogun and Henderson are victorious (or both lose), I'd love to see these two in the cage at LHW.

Nope, the fight will take place @ 205. I'm pretty sure Coleman has made the weight before.
 
That's good.

I just realized Coleman hasn't fought in over 2 years...shit.

Hopefully it isn't an awkward fight full of hesitation and slop. It's been a while for both of those guys.

Yeah, I saw it. I was a bit disappointed with Wagnney, but Brian Bowles came through in impressive fashion. Torres' reach was just waaaaay too much for Tapia to overcome.
