:142smilie i knew that was coming. Kick to be honest. I have never tried. Nice comments from u on the first post in the you tube video :0074
looked like it might be fun(if you were huffing solvents)..:lol:
hope you`re doing some capping for 133,gaz....looking forward to hearing your opinions....
Yep I'll be offering my views while I still have some dollars in the books. I think this could be a good betting card and look forward to the groups views as always
the disgraceful roadshow of power-hungry asshole dana white continues....

so,because he was unhappy with overeem,he fires every fighter from the guy`s stable?.....einemo who was seconds away from beating herman in a "fight of the night"?.. ...and ex-champ coenen?....
the guy has no clue how to deal with people.....
you`re piling up a shitpotload of nasty karma,dude..it`s coming(like it always does with shitheels like white)...and it ain`t gonna be pretty...

this guy is heading toward the cliff...i just hope that when he crashes and burns,he`s not so big that he takes the ufc or mma in general with him...
i was wondering if the offshore sportsbooks continue to ban american action and the cycle completes,how much of an effect it would have on mma?...
i wonder how much the interest would wane without the gambling aspect?...
Normally, I'd agree with you. However, this had to be done. Golden Glory is nothing but trouble for MMA, yet alone the UFC. They remind me of M-1. If you let them guys get their fingers in on MMA and any power, they will ruin the sport, just like boxing.
well, i'd have to say that MMA boomed without gambling, and gambling in mma is still minute. i don't think it'll effect the sport much, if at all...
you`re blowing smoke now,bucs.....
why wasn`t that the attitude before white signed einemo?
oh,i think it will...certainly in the states....i`m not saying it would terminally cripple it...but it would hurt it...
it would hurt the mighty nfl...
from me? or dana? i dont know half of these guys have managers/management, yet along who they have management with...
as far as dana goes, he was giving promising fighters opportunities. sometimes, unfortunately you have to make an example. i know, it's not fair, but in the long run, it'll work out.
can you imagine how pissed these 3 fighters are, and probably at their management and overeem for forcing it to this point?
i kind of like the JDS approach..."manager, i don't get it, why do i need a manager?"
the nfl has been around for yours. gambling in the nfl has been around for years. it has established itself on the market. the ufc isn't even close to that aspect.
i don't think these 3 "firings" will have any effect, short term, nor long term. don't be suprised to see them go with different management/unmanaged in the short future...
you`re making a case that firing all three fighters from the same stable is warranted because white was pissed at overeem?.....
if you had several employees from the same family and one f-cked up,would YOU fire them all?.....
this guy is a petty, punitive p.o.s..
you have to be kidding....seriously...
that`s not the point...the point is that the guy pulling the ufc`s strings is an asshole....it all looks good now,but when you treat people like dog turds along the bike path,it comes back to you....
you have fighters like einemo and coenen who did nothing wrong....he`s using innocents to show his power....in coenen`s case,she was a loyal employee...and einemo was coming off fotn....
bad business...period...
i know i`m not buying this ufc...i may just boycott the org.,save the 50 bucks and watch online from here on out....
better in my pocket than his...
""For those concerned about a Zuffa monopoly, this is exactly the reason for such concerns. This move reeks of Vince McMahon pro wrestling style vindictiveness, where employing the best fighters is secondary to settling personal grudges. It's an unfortunate move that does no service in the attempts to make the sport more mainstream.
With these releases, Sergei Kharitonov becomes the only Golden Glory fighter under the Zuffa banner. Kharitonov is currently scheduled to face Josh Barnett in the GP semi-finals, and is also scheduled for the October United Glory show. Keep an eye on his status with Zuffa in the coming months. Other Golden Glory names have been mentioned as possibly heading to Strikeforce at some time, including Gokhan Saki and Siyar Bahadurzada, but obviously I wouldn't expect that to happen any time soon.""
