I think he should get better instead of quitting.

If Kimbo were to succeed in either sport his speed and cardio needs to improve.

Brown vs Faber II has officially been announced to take place on June 7th.

I got Brown winning in a rematch^

as for Kimbo, the guy thought Japan was a city 😐

Not expecting much. He'll make alot of $$$ though.

Glad Junie lost. He's an a$$hole & needs to control himself.

Dana's rant goes too far?

He doesn't actually act like he did on the show in real life. He just did it for the publicity (and it worked). And Dana didn't go too far. That's the way he talks to everyone about everyone. They're just taking it bad now because it was directed towards a woman. Go to his press conferences, he talks that way even when speaking to little kids.

I read he's suppose to issue an official apologie to Lerreta Hunt sometime. Don't know if its true though.

Dana needs to act more like a president then a fanboy at times. I like the fact that he isnt afraid to state his opinion and all but he was just cussing the reporter out and really didnt address what was written in the article.

It's not that he was cussing her out. That's how he speaks to everyone. And he did address what was in the article.

She'll think twice before she says something about Dna/UFC again!

So who do you all think will win the Evans/Machida fight? I'm rooting for Machida. He's just a better overall fighter and has looked so much better than Evans has in every single fight. Evans could always get a lucky shot in though and knock Machida out.

Evans. Machida impressed me a lot w/his last fight but on average, Evans is waay more fun to watch. Always tries to finish the fight. Rashad hits VERY hard. I don't think there's been much luck involved in his fights. He beats people up & I think & hope he does the same to Lyoto.

Dr. Leg Kick Aesculapius

I disagree^ Machida is way more exciting and thats mainly cuz of his techniques. Rashad was getting picked apart by Forrest, and the last 2 min of the fight was where he actually had control.

I see Machida dominating and maybe even a finish in early round 3.

LDHZenkai Evergreen Oldboy

yea if you really want to compare the two look at their styles. Then look at both their fights with Ortiz. Evans had a hard time with him, Machida nearly KO'd him with a knee. Ortiz landed no hits on Machida while they were standing.

Tito felt the need to cheat against Evans to stop the takedowns. Evans has improved much since then & would likely murder Tito(who btw almost subbed Lyoto)

Evans having trouble w/Forrest doesn't mean much because in the end Rashad finished him w/a vicious KO(as I predicted 🙂 ). Forrest is a tough & talented guy. Lyoto is also tough & even more talented. That makes the standards for him HIGHER. He looked waaaay better than Tito but never tried really hard to finish him. I'm not gonna say Lyoto's boring like others have, but Evans IS more exciting 'cuz he Ks people TFO whenever he can. I like Evans better and think he's going to win. He's a very smart fighter. If somehow Lyoto does win I hope it's by sub. I don't wanna see him decision people anymore.

Dr. Leg Kick Aesculapius

To be correct, it was a TKO, and was far from vicious. Forrest got lazy in the guard, and thats not taking anything away from Rashad. He's always been the underdog, and definitely has the tools to defeat Machida.

MMA math doesn't work in reality.

😂 When somebody KOs you & their punches animate your limp body to look like you're tapping out, it's a vicious KO.

A KO would be a one or multiple strike to finish off an opponent.

The fight was stopped via TKO (punches).

Big difference.

Edit: Vicious? Get off Evans dick man. He's a great fighter but Forrest wasn't KO'd or even TKO'd viciously.

Again, not taking anything from Evans, the guy is a champ, but he still has much to prove in my eyes. Machida is the perfect test for him.
