well,it`s all speculation....that was his second ufc fight...i don`t think he`s lost a round since(sans the hamill d.q.)......

if you notice,since his first two ufc fights, a pattern of brutal finishes is emerging.....

i don`t know what more you can ask from a guy....he looks to be on another level....and he just turned 24 years old...

I think a few of us here on the board were fortunate enough to follow MMA from the beginning. For me as soon as I saw Gracie I was hooked and he was my first favorite. Then Saku and Fedor came along with their exciting styles and I had my new favorites. I never got to see Gracie or Saku fight live but have attended shows with big stars including Rampage, Henderson, Penn, Hughes, Bisping, Evans, Serra, A Silva, W Silva, Carano, Diaz, Cro Cop and Fedor. Without a doubt Fedor stood out the most and has this amazing aura around him unlike no other. And lets be honest. This is the fight business and hype means a lot

He will be missed:0008

you guys are particularly thick today....

last time i looked,i saw no issues with einemo`s or coenen`s contracts...they just competeed relatively recently and there was nothing on any mma sites or in any periodicals regarding contractual issues with these fighters....

it was a totally vindictive move that only a megalomaniac would make....sanctioning innocent,hard working employees just trying to make a living to try and send a message to another employee that he already fired....


that`s scary crazy....he`s nuts...

i can`t believe you guys are sucking this p.o.s.`s dick...

Dana is an egomaniac but I don't mind him usually. However in this case what he did was completely wrong. Firing them was completely BS.

GG wanted the money up front and would pay their fighters from that money.

Fuck that shit.


Not to mention the shit Overeem pulled.

Zuffa did the right thing:clap:

Kinda funny that they still haven't gotten rid of Kharitonov then. Maybe you can explain the difference there. Dana can really be low class and malicious at times.

Have to leave one around to make GW happy.

DREAM and M-1 are low class (and scum).....Zuffa is not.

Not a very good reason.Actually White isn't really any better than the people you call scum. That's my opinion though and no matter how many times you repeat yourself it's not going to change.

MayorgaFan....you are a good guy and all. But you are on a serious amount of crack if you think the guys in M-1 or DREAM are anywhere close to Zuffa.

I mean what the fuck are you talking about:shrug:

Last time I checked Zuffa paid its fighters.

I mean come on MayorgaFan you know better then that.

For fucks sake there are still MMA fighters waiting to get paid from DREAM.

What the hell are you talking about.:scared

You want to bash Dana that is fine, he deserves it at times.

But to even think M-1 and DREAM are even comparable to Zuffa is fucking laughable.

I mean come on.

4 in a row so not surprising he was let go

He has not looked so good as off late and was really tentative against Vazquez. Seems like 45 fights have taken their toll on him

Because he's already agreed to fight in the grad prix, and if you read Dana's latest statements, it's pretty simple why he got rid of the guys he did. Kharitonov will be the next once he loses.

Golden Glory wants the UFC/ZUFFA/MMA ORGANIZATIONS to pay the managers the whole pay, then they pay the fighters? That reeks of SHADY SHADY SHADY business. Like Dana said, "you pay the fighter, then the fighter pays the manager, that's how we do business in the USA."

they pay their fighters....but they are slowly but surely trying to corner the market...to try and force out/buy out other major organizations(strikeforce/wec) that have the ability to pay their fighters...it`s called a monopoly....

if you don`t play the ufc`s game,there may come a time when mma fighters can be fired(like einemo and coenen) for no good reason...and they`ll have nowhere else to go that affords them the ability to make a living as a fulltime mma fighter....

i hope thaTmakes sense to you, kick....it`s really not all that complicated...:shrug:
