#1 lmao comparing an eye poke to grabbing the fence...grasshopper

#2 he only grabbed the fence 2x during takedown attempts, it just so happend that on the 2nd takedown attempt he grabbed it multiple attempts. that's what i meant, FOOL.

#3 go back to hiding because i just blasted everything you said from start to finish. your recollection of the fight is a joke.

Bucks i will rewatch the fight okay. I promise u i won't hide like u do when Shogun or Wandy get rolled over. Im surprised u even showed up this month after Wandy got smashed. Or was that fight last month :mj07:

I don't hide, I just am a busy guy and by the time I get on here, the threads are 5-8 pages or longer. I don't have time to swift through them. I've only been on here more often because my hours changed for a month.

You should rewatch the fight because your recollection of the fight is terrible.

" ?I wanted a guarantee to fight [Evans at UFC 133]. My manager, ?Joinha? [Jorge Guimaraes], called me and I said at first that I was excited to be in the lineup. But, after meeting with my team, we saw that it wouldn?t be a good idea, especially because Dana White wanted me to travel to the U.S. immediately to have my training camp there. Many of the members of my corner don?t have visas right now. Then, I said, ?If you want me to fight, pay me as a champion. Pay me like you pay Anderson Silva.?? A man approaches you wanting to buy your house, but you don?t want to sell it. So then, you ask for a higher price. You want it? Then pay what I?m asking. I can?t put my career at risk with a bad showing. I think I?d have more to lose than to win in that fight. I have a name in the company. I don?t fight without being prepared, even when I lose. I can?t step in and take the chance of having a bad fight. Today, you have to be extremely prepared? Joinha called me, saying they?ve offered me the fight, and then called back later saying it wouldn?t be necessary anymore because Phil Davis got cleared to fight. Then, I traveled to the beach with my family and the negotiations reopened? If I?m requested [to fight] in a different way from now on, OK. It?s not like I can?t train in Belem, but ?pack your stuff and go to the U.S.,? that takes money and time. It?s a professional relationship. Everything is business and people need to split things. I hope the UFC won?t harm me. It?s gotta be 100-percent with me and them. I want to respect the promotion, my fans and myself. That was my main cause for turning down that fight.?

? Lyoto Machida explaining to Sherdog why he wanted ?Anderson Silva money? and why he turned down the fight with Rashad Evans at UFC 133"

It?s difficult to tell exactly how it all went down between Dana White and Lyoto Machida?s camp from their stories, but listening to Machida, it definitely sounds like there was more to it than Dana?s claim that he accepted the fight only to renege on it shortly thereafter in an attempt to get more money. Machida shouldn?t have initially agreed without thinking it through it first, but his reasoning is understandable.

Imagine that. I get it. He saw the risks and decided if he was going to go for it, he wanted to be compensated for taking the risk.

Nogueira forced out at UFC 133; promotion seeking replacement to face Franklin

http://mmajunkie.com/news/24439/nog...tion-seeking-replacement-to-face-franklin.mma

The curse continues:facepalm:

Time to bring back Houston Alexander or maybe soukudju? :mj07: those would probably be entertaining fights for Ace!

Who else? How about Babalu? Maybe Keith jardine?? I think it's time for Ovince St Preux to get a shot too, but he fights this week I think.

How about Feijao Cavalcante?

very fortuitous.....provides a great excuse....

and when Tito wins, i'm sure you'll be here to eat your crow...:142smilie @ some of you people who will say anything and dig deep for any reason to slam someone...

then hopefully rashad smashes up tito's face

:toast:

did a great job the first time. god, some of you guys talk about conditioning and ring rust for the guys you're against, but when it's your guy, you completely forget that Rashad hasn't fought in 14 months and 6 days come fight night.

lets not act like Rashad has ever had good cardio to begin with...Give me the fresh, in shape, sharp, and full momentum and confident Tito. I don't know how you couldn't bet Tito given all the facts, circumstances, style, and ODDS.
