Yeah aside from that I think Dana White of all people is the last person who should be lecturing Brock about class and etiquette, and I think Dana's great.

Mr White at his best

White (pictured) says that back in the early days of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, EA were dismissive of the fledgling competition, telling him "You're not a real sport. We wouldn't touch this thing. We want nothing to do with this".

"We put our asses on the line, THQ and the UFC, to make a video-game deal in the worst economy in the world," he says. "We go out there and do this thing, and it's successful, and now [expletive] EA Sports wants to do a video game. Really? That's not what you told us a year-and-a-half ago."

And in putting this game together, are looking to license real-world fighters, something that's going to have consequences not just on the battle between these two MMA video games, but for the UFC itself.

Why? Because the UFC boss says he has a clear message to any of his fighters looking to make a buck by appearing in EA's game: "You won't be in the UFC".

"I'm not tap-dancing around this thing or whatever," White says. "I'm telling you straight-up, I'm at war with [EA] right now. That's how I look at it".

"EA doesn't give a [expletive] about mixed martial arts. They made that very clear."

Tried miserably to trim the excess from that article, enjoy the multiquote

I feel bad for the fans who think just because EA is making the game it's going to be great. They clearly haven't ventured into the ungodly mess that is NBA Live.

Brock beat the hell out of Mir. his fist are like boulders.

Wasn't that basically the same thing mvpshaq32 said?

To be fair, you could've said the same thing of THQ considering some of their WWE releases. However, it seems they got it right with UFC 2009 Undisputed; I haven't played it but I've only heard good things.

no not really

Fedor might be going to the ufc. Now that would be cool.
Brock versus the best heavyweight of his generation. I'd pay to see it.

$30 mil for six fights and an instant shot at Lesnar is supposedly what the UFC is offering him.

Personally I'd want to give Lesnar a couple more fights against ultra technical opponents... just because I don't like Fedor fanboys and I want Lesnar to crush him, but I'm not convinced he's ready just yet. Fedor is as good as it gets.

I want to see Lasnar lose. Since it would make him mad and come back with a vengeance.
Mad lesnar against a Russian who wooped his ass? Awesome sauce.

You're probably right, though Mir pissed him off a lot before that fight I don't think Fedor talks that much. If Lesnar held Fedor down for two rounds and punched the fuck out of his face non stop it would probably lead to mass suicides in certain parts of MMAjunkie.com.

Just reading and can not understand how anybody thought Silva would beat Rampage. Rampage is a much better fighter then their previous meetings in Pride and Silva isnt half the fighter he was in Pride. Silva lost like 3 of his last 5 fights and Rampage win like 5 in a row before losing to Forrest in a really close fight.

Also about Mir, him and his teammates posted a video of them pretending to be Brock and doing like wrestling moves in the cage and then doing the tap motion like Brock did in the fight and then after having Mir throw a fake punch and lay him out. Real childish stuff. Then on MMA Live he was saying that Dana better have a replacement because he was sure Brock wouldnt even show up to the fight because he was scared. Mir is and always been a douche. He has a great ground game I will give him that but he got super cocky after beating a staph infected Big Nog and thinks he was hot poop because of the win. Im glad Brock pounded his face in while the crowd was saying stand them up stand them up it was so sweet. The middle fingers was kind of over the top but the relief and emotion he had at that moment was so intense. The crowd wanted Brock to lose so bad and he pulled out the victory this goes back to his first fight in the UFC when he was booed coming out and then after he lost talking to Rogan where he was booed for absolutely no reason besides getting caught. he was punishing Mir up until that point where he made a mistake and got caught with the leg lock.

I hope Fedor signs with UFC Brock will smash him. Then we can swim in the tears of the MMA fans.

I think he was worried about losing the Bud Light sponsorship more than anything.

Hahahaha. That is hilarious. The money Brock brings in with PPV buys is higher then any amount of money Bud Light gives the UFC. Plus if Bud steps out, someone will step right in.

Im pretty sure the whipping the dog session was something like you cant be acting like that towards the other fighters but god damn that was awesome. How many ppvs you think we gonna sell the next time you fight. Hahahaha. Ok stop laughing put a sad face on. That was a really bad thing Brock and I hope you learned your lesson.

Brock rearranging Mir's face means I don't have to see commercials like this anymore:

Fedor signs with strike force? I did not see that one coming.

I'm not that surprised, all of the M-1 clauses pretty much guaranteed he wouldn't end up in the UFC. Strikeforce are vultures and will take anyone and do anything, including promote M-1 it seems. I had read that he (Fedor) sees MMA as a hobby and his real passion is sambo, which I suppose explains why he's taking the money (and dictating terms) to fight nobodies in Strikeforce as opposed to taking on guys who could actually beat him in the UFC. Can't wait for Diaz vs Fedor at a catchweight.

This is making me lose respect for fedor. He's still the best heavy, but it's a bit of a bitch move. Although fedor against the grim rodgers could be good.

Did Filipinos jinxed or brought bad luck to Brandon Vera ?
I mean, before the Filipinos introduced Brandon here in our Country he was a successful UFC/MMA Fighter right ? but after that he dropped two straight bouts .

I think he had the Tim Sylvia loss before coming here. So he didn't lose two straight after coming here.

Why MikeMan, can't accept 'the truth' that he's really not a top tier fighter?

Potential , potential , potential .
He has/had the potential to be a good MMA Fighter , but the Philippine Media distracted him for some sort .

He didn't eat right nor trained like a pro should, is what I heard.

Potential , potential , potential.

Like Kwame Brown?
You can't just pass the blame. If he's really that good he should know better to ignore distractions whatever that may be and do what he's supposed to do in the octagon. At the end if it all he's the one that can only fulfill that 'potential' and not fuck up like he's doing right now.

Oh yeah , I remember now . . .
He broke his hand in his last fight right ? Tough Luck .
