i like to read sherdogs ranking time from time

So yeah here it is.....lets talk about it and stuffs :)

[Subb]

i use to read sherdog all the time but kinda fell out of it cause the forum sucked me in a bit. But do to recent events i may have more time to be more active over there and at LE. As far as strikeforce i never follwed it until the last event when shamrock announced his retirement. But AUG 7 i will have my beer and will watch 117

[thedeparted]

I follow UFC prolly 80% and fit WEC/Strikeforce and whatever into the rest

[Subb]

yeah UFC is the ****, but i think strikeforce has potential. however i wonder what the contracts are for the fighters so they dont get a good name to just get into UFC

[thedeparted]

I wish M1 Global wasn't such commies. Fedor was like set to come to UFC too, but they wanted to throw a temper tantrum and say i want to co-event. He was in like to get like a 30 mill over 5 fights or something crazy high like that. Still cant believe he lost last fight

[Subb]

yeah that is some pretty crazy pay, I still laugh when damages pretty boy lost to leben

MMA mid-season review - Yahoo! Eurosport (http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/20072010/58/mma-mid-season-review.html)

good read.



James Toney, 41, one of the most accomplished boxers of the generation, debuts on a UFC show on Aug. 28 against MMA legend Randy Couture.



lol

[Subb]

ahh yes very good read, thanks for putting it up here

[thedeparted]

I hope Couture breaks a foot off in Toney... but he'll likely just press him against the cage. that fight with viera just p-d me to know end...boring ass sh11t...all 3 rounds basically all against the cage

[Subb]

yeah i hear ya there i hate when the are against the cage the ref should pull them off after so long

Im so glad James Toney is done in the UFC. Couture totally wooped his arse! It was epic.

[Subb]

yeah im glad hes done to, with all the bad mouthing of dana white he did. **** that dude james

[thedeparted]

i would love for mayweather to come in and get pwned by like silva XD

[Subb]

yeah that would be awesome, but i dont see another event like this happeing for awhile

[thedeparted]

true. but they need a young dude not some punch drunk over the hill dude like toney. i love post fight how toney said his ground game was alright. It was hilarious considering how badly he got owned. He should try maybe Strikeforce or something even less
