"the bunker"
That is still hard to believe.

don`t believe it for a second...they do rudimentary boxing style tests.....tests that all these high profile athletes know how to get around....

that`s why manny pacquaio won`t agree to the olympic style testing that mayweather wants....

you`d have to go to some olympic-style testing to detect some of the shit these guys are taking...and even then i`m not sure all mma orgs could afford doing it on a broad scale....it`s not cheap...bigger sports like the nfl and mlb are just now in the discussion stages of brqad based testing for hgh...

and why would they want to?...anybody think dana gives a whit about the fighters long term well being or an equal playing field?....if you do,just watch last week`s ultimate fighter episode and watch him try and intimdate nick ring into fighting with a torn acl...

dana wants the biggest,nastiest fighters he can get... fighter well being be damned...

talk about a sick card...not so much the main bout or two...but the rest of the card...just flat out great matchmaking..


Chuck Liddell vs. Rich Franklin
Patrick Barry vs. Mirko ?Cro Cop? Filipovic
Paulo Thiago vs. Martin Kampmann
Ben Rothwell vs. Gilbert Yvel
Carlos Condit vs. Rory MacDonald
Tyson Griffin vs. Evan Dunham
Mac Danzig vs. Matt Wiman
David Loiseau vs. Mario Miranda
James Wilks vs. Peter Sobotta
Claude Patrick vs. Ricardo Funch
Mike Pyle vs. Jesse Forbes

the 4 bouts below the first 2 are amazing...griffin vs dunham and condit vs candian wunderkind macdonald are really interesting fights...

rothwell /yvel should be fireworks and thiago/kampmann a super match-up...

the first two might be better off on the bottom of the card

thanks for posting the heads up,partner...been waiting patiently for bisping/miller....

could go either way,but miller has supposedly better grappling(pretty sure that`s the case) and definitely better submissions....

this ain`t in britain...and miller`s up against it after losing to maia and sonnen...

no sure thing...bisping is better standing...but,i think miller is a live doggie(i only caught +160,but that`ll do)...bisping will probably have to go the route to beat miller...don`t see a stoppage...not for bisping,anyway...

UFC Opens Office in Toronto......and books Rogers Centre for March 11th 2012



I can tell you one thing, if MMA gets sanctioned in Ontario, you can be dam sure 60 000 fans will pack the Rogers Centre for the GSP/Anderson fight.

Will be by far the biggest fight in MMA history if it happens. Of course you never know what that dolt Anderson will do in that time. But if GSP and Anderson stay unbeaten, then that will be the fight at the Rogers Centre, you can be sure of that.

also.....kegray will be sending his resume into the UFC, I have already put in a good word for him. I think kegray has a good shot at working at the Toronto office.

Funny you say that because I sold my business and will be needing work again someday(probably sooner than later).
I hung out with a guy from Toronto the other night who was visiting a friend down the street and he was talking up Toronto. He said the Houston heat was great as he wasn't a cold weather guy and the smog in Toronto was pretty bad at times.

Maybe Kimbo and I will move there since we are both out of work.

Yep.....good idea....I think that would be huge news, kegray and Dana doing conference calls, that would be just perfect.

Also, Kimbo could answer the phones at the Toronto office:

"Yo this is Kimbo, how can I direct your call"?

Hannity is a million times better than Fallon and that is saying something.
The only ones that come close to Fallon is Ellen or Tyra.

i put Fallon on a couple of times and thought he stunk too lol. Nobody measures up to Carson.
