Man, I really hate this news. Those guys were GREAT businessmen and exemplified the entrepreneurial spirit of this country.

I especially loved Mask's passion for keeping the integrity of their company even after their overwelming success.

R.I.P. Mask

Yep, Mask seemed to be a good person.. he definitely had a love for MMA and was very loyal to his sponsors/clients.

Having watched the show, the guy was always happy and having a good time and that is always refreshing to see.

I remember that one episode where the Tapout guys went over to their friends house who owned all the sports cars..... could that be the guy charged with manslaughter....?? :shrug:



MORE STARTLING NEWS....Ken Shamrock tests positive for THREE anabolic steroids. :rolleyes:

HOLYYYYY CRAPPp Machida is -165 to 170. I almost just fell out of my chair. Talk about no respect for Evans and a ton for Machida. How was Page a dog and Machida is a fav?

Wow, get Coleman the hell out of here. He's boring to watch so please don't do it UFC. Why when they have all of this talent and should be trying to make a GREAT card for 100 would they put Coleman in it. ARGH that pisses me off.

Do you think he would be that big of a fav over Page or even Chuck?(not trying to argue because I agree with what you said about how dominant he's been) That's a serious question, I just can't see anyone being that big of a fav over those two.

I tell you who(and I can't believe I would say this) is someone that could more than likely be perfect vs Machida is Couture. He would have to do a lot of chasing but if Randy could get his hands on Machida it would be interesting. Of course Tito tried to get his hands on him and couldn't.

IFFFF, Evans is smart and uses his speed and takedown ability he could win this. He just never seems to want to take anyone down.

Can't even believe they are gonna let him fight again. That last fight all i kept thinking was he was gonna get killed and then i hear Rogan say the same thing. Nothing good can come out of letting him fight. He gasses way to fast.

I get the feeling Machida/Rampage odds would be about the same...

As for Liddell...? He is so unpredictable right now who knows how odds would turn out, but I DO think he would have the best chance of the three (Page,Evans,Liddell)..... The only reason i feel that way is b/c Liddell is familiar with that karate-style of striking and that isn't something Evans or Rampage can prepare for in just one training camp.

Liddell has gotten more careless and aggressive recently, but, in his prime, he had good movement and counter-punching skills a lot like Machida so that would be an interesting fight to me if Liddell returns in good form.... Obviously Liddell is much slower than Machida, though.

To be honest, not sure if Machida has EVER lost a round. :shrug: When I think about his striking along with his good (great) takedown defense and ground skill, I dont know who can beat him. :shrug: This isn't a Thiago Silva type of guy who had glaring weaknesses (IMO), this is a guy who doesnt seem to have holes in his game.

I think he should be favored against everyone b/c I dont seem him losing in a long time.

Wed 4/1 141 Cole Miller -125
9:00PM (EST) 142 Junie Browning -105

Can't see Browning winning this fight at all. Just to inexperienced in my opinion for Cole. Cole submission game is pretty good and Browing gets submitted. Jeremy Stevens in my opinion has a some of the top hands in the business and Cole dealt with them almost the whole fight. Browning has decent hands but nothing like Stephens.
