glass chin Arlovski.

Speaking of which...

quote 411mania.com

At one time Dana White was upset over losing heavyweight Andrei Arlovski, but it seems that the time has passed, and that the company now has no interest in the former champion. Arlovski suffered two first round losses to Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers, and when asked for comment, Dana White had the following to say…

"Now, he's had a couple of bad performances. He's got to get back in the mix and win. Sometimes, we make bad career decisions. I think leaving the UFC was a bad career decision for him. I like Andre, I don't dislike him. He's a nice guy."

I'm starting to think that the one victory 1-99 Glass Joe has was against Andrei Arlovski Arlovski has great boxing skills, but can't take big shots. He wouldn't fare well in boxing unless he just goes for points and tries to look fancy while he runs away the whole bout... just like Michael Bisping

Of course it doesn't help that he lost twice in a row to TIMMAY!!

Other notes:
Contrary to prior reports, Paul Daley HAS NOT signed with UFC.

Dana's "big announcement" is at 2 PM ET today. Probably not streaming live online. It's expected to be...

so how much longer to we find out whats happening at the press confrence

I think you've got it all wrong there TLA. It was actually SilentScream who was deleting posts

You've deleted your own posts on NUMEROUS occasions, including your MMA intro thread posts, which you've done four times and reposted for no apparent reason.

The introduction posts were in addition to the posts you deleted in other threads where you insulted others, but you know it to be true and know you don't have to admit anything

The Silva vs. Henderson rematch should be awesome. Henderson needs to take more of an advantage when getting Silva down. Is Franklin vs. Belfort at 205?

Also, how many actually train in martial arts on here? Out of curiosity.

i actually do.
only been doing it for 2 years thoe. i only had to do 6 monthes of training befor i was allowed to fight. so far im 7-0-1 oh by the way im only turning 16.

Enz, neo's post limit restriction would prohibit me from quoting all of your sentences, for you to quote mine, and so on and so forth. One of us has to logically take a different approach sometime.

Look at who Wanderlei is fighting though. Despite losses, he's facing tough opponents and not scrubs being fed his way to keep an image intact. One could argue he still had a rightful place to be considered a Top 10 fighter. But look at his fights though; look how they are finished and how he's finished them. Out of his four UFC fights, granted he's lost 3 of them, two going to decision (some arguing he was robbed in the Franklin fight) both those decisions won fight of the night honors, thus qualifying him to not lose much in rankings. Two great fighters, one is bound to lose. Look at all of Sylvia's decision victories... exactly how many of them won fight of the night honors? Most were not even entertaining to watch, if not outright painful to endure as a viewer. What points have you made exactly? All you have provided is an opinion to argue against the statistics. Losing to Nog and Couture does not mean you suck; everyone gets caught sometime, but dominating a division, in sheer boring fashion where you struggle to make it to decision victory against a bunch of scrubs no one has heard of and never seen again, does not make you a good fighter either. The point you're trying to get across with why Tim Sylvia was a Top 10 Fighter could be applied to any Heavyweight with a good win/loss record.

Will, you've deleted posts for unknown reasons many times, regardless where it was posted and not just the Intro thread because I wasn't aware of it happening in there until TO pointed it out. You've done it so many times in a discussion when I've been lurking in this forum to check the mod queue, decided not to waste time replying to your post at the time, only to come back to the same thread the next day or so and your post just happened to mysteriously vanish. But let me guess, you want examples of where this has happened, right and expect me to make vanished posts reappear? You're a bigger tool than you give yourself credit for. I'm not going to sift through these endless UFC topics or any thread in this forum just to prove a "one-up" point on you whether it's you never finishing an argument you typically start in the first place, or some mere quip about Alexander's ground game. I still stand by being optimistic about Houston. He had a good win/loss record prior to coming into UFC, dominated back to back TKO victories over Alessio Sakara and Jardine who had just come off his win over Forrest Griffin. Excuse us mister superiority MMA Grand Guru for not seeing the inevitable future that was to become of his fight in the Silva and Irvin bouts. Unfortunately, unlike you, my belt does not need another metaphorical notch in it to make myself feel better on a irrelevant message board. You can't even pretend to have known what was to happen in his fight with Alves or his 8 second KO from Irvin. Why don't YOU go find these posts showing all of us up on how you knew all along he wasn't the fighter some of us were making him out to be. I can turn this shit around too. I don't know if I'd congratulate or laugh at you if you spent time digging through the archives for a sentence that doesn't exist. Your ego trip you boost yourself up for in this forum is outstanding sometimes because it never fails to amaze me how much of a douche you can be. Some of us were watching UFC back when it was barbaric when the promotion first came around, as I use to go rent them on VHS TAPES all the time as well to re-watch them! I highly doubt you did the same at the age, but then you were in MMA classes as a toddler, triangle-choking barbie dolls amirite... You goddamn right UFC takes front and center. The hell else are we supposed to be fanboys of, the defunct Elite XC who manipulate their fights by offering fighters to keep it standing, or M-1 Global, who horde their "best" fighter into ridiculous stipulations to keep him from being exposed as anything less than the "Greatest Heavyweight In The World" a title he can no longer stake when he's repeatedly refused to fight the best competition around. If Fedor was in his late 40's, I would refute the last statement as honestly, he would have nothing left to prove trying to stake a claim at that title against guys 20 years younger than him.. but he's not in his later 40's now is he. The man is in his early 30's and insists to fight scrubs in Sambo tournaments and has-beens outside of UFC. It's hilarious how you consider yourself above all of us, yet we all think so lowly of you. Shouldn't be too surprised, Brits usually are this thickheaded cocky bitches.

In Other News...Paul Daley has signed with UFC, and this time it's official (apparently the other day it wasn't). Debut at UFC 103, likely against Brian Foster (a Matt Hughes fighter).

(And Deis wasn't a guy, Ortega.)
