I have no interest in seeing Tito vs. Shammy! Neither one of those Has-been egomaniacs, deserve to ever win a fight again….If they fight, someone will have to win….

Only way I would watch that fight is if it was guaranteed to end in a double KO, or both fighters simply killing each other!

I hope that this starts a new wave of fighters blaming losses in mma, on lack of stability ball training! Now that I think about it, that had to be what cost Rashad the fight against Machida…hahahahah!

i think he was blaming it on the fact his balls arnt stable~

its simple~

 he is scared to fight top fighters!!

it is actually as simple as that Sinky! he has always been Bitch made!

LOL Stinky. Nice call.

I dunno, I kind of like Shamrock. He seems ok. I noticed so many people hate him but perhaps I’m not as familiar with his antics.

It’s his marketing that people don’t seem to like, I like Frank too, he’s a great fighter and usually puts on an exciting fight. He talks a sh!t ton of trash and gets pretty arrogant about his skills; but the guy always seems to give his honest opinion and usually tells it like it is (if the issue isn’t involving himself).

I agree with Frank, I think he looked flat against Diaz, and IMO he could do much better in a rematch and make it much more competitive. And he actually isn’t the one that brought up the rib injury in the first place it was Scott Coker, who stated Frank was encouraged to pull out and advised not to fight with his injury and he went ahead with it anyway. Didn’t say a word about it after the fight until Coker brought it up and took his loss like a man.

Frank’s only problem is his pride and arrogance, he overrestimates himself a lot and tends to take fights while injured thinking he’s going to be so technically superior to his opponent that it won’t matter. Thats my only knock on Frank, other than that he cuts a good promo and definatley knows how to sell a fight. Most people will watch just to see him lose; mission accomplished.

k this picture for the heading is the funniest thing

O damn-

Great post. Agreed 100%.

Old Saying: like a monkey trying to f*ck a football
New Saying: like Shammy tring to f*ck a stability ball

That stability ball has better stand-up than Frank.

Yeah, good post O damn.

True, he needs to use that giant ball on his head, pound some sense into it and realise he aint relevant no more, never will be again!

Here it is, Jake SHields just moved up on my favorite list of fighters.

“I would love to fight that old man Frank Shamrock for all the shit he talks about me. But Frank would never fight me in a million years. All the stability balls in the world couldn’t save Frank. He is a shameless self promoter that would not make it out of round one against me and he knows it. I called him out at the hotel last night for all the shit he talks about me. He has zero jiu-jitsu skill. Apparently rolling around with a rubber ball all day does not tighten up your jiu jitsu game as much as previously thought (LOL). But I’m wasting all of our time even talking about this right now. Frank knows he would get smashed by me. Yet he will still talk shit about me but not sign on the dotted line. That’s what Frank does. He’s a creepy looking 50 something year old man, with a flat nose, and some 13 year old kids braces on his teeth, trying to always talk himself up so people think he is still relevant. He beat Cesar and Nick smashed him…How about a rubber match Frank? I would come up to your weight and I would give you my entire purse if you could even make it to a decision against me. Then you could buy all the stability balls in San Jose to grapple against every day for the rest of your life, you dick

what does that say about jake shields calling out a 50 year old man? jake has never even beatin anyone in the top 10 in his weight class…he is the most overrated fighter to have never beatin a highly rated fighter in his weight class…

dude has had nearly 30 fights and only one impressive victory over lawler…but still the dude has YET to beat anyone in the top 10 in his weight class….thats why he calls out 50 year old men…hes a fraud

I’d have to agree here… not saying Shields is a joke but all the WW’s are in the UFC. He did beat the ‘goat’ for what that’s worth

Diaz is clearly rubbing off on Jake… Oh, and for what it’s worth, Shields did beat Fitch in a grappling tourney.

Perfect, just perfect!

Oooh…Condom Depot…

Sorry I couldn’t keep a straight face while reading that one. Rampage running from Tito Ortiz? Rampage would knock Tito’s big head into orbit, it would be Earth’s 2nd moon if they fought. Which isn’t going to happen anyway because Page and Tito happen to be good friends. You also might want to watch the Machida fight again; while it was a nice try by Tito, he didn’t have that triangle locked up by any means. The only reason he had to go for the armbar in the first place was because his triangle wasn’t on good enough.

Frank DRUG his @ss when they fought; there was no debating who won that fight, Ortiz was in the damn press conference CRYING after that fight. He did the same crying crap after Randy Couture spanked his @ss in front of a live audience. I know you’re a fan of Tito and all and thats fine, but your boy has become a 1 dimensional lay n prey wrestler who can’t punch his way out of a wet paperbag. Frank, unlike Tito, has actually gotten BETTER since the first time they fought; the only thing that would even keep Tito in the fight is his size; and even that would fail him against Frank.

O I see, you meant Rampage running from Machida; thats still laughable. I’m not going to debate it cause I think it went on long enough in a diff thread, but even the thought of Rampage being afraid of Machida just makes me laugh. People don’t seem to understand the concept of $$$; he’s going to do TUF, not train, not get punched in the face, get loads of $$$, get a free vehicle and tons of publicity to build a fight afterward thats going to rake in even MORE $$$$.

And on top of that; assuming he beats Rashad; he’s STILL going to cash in on a title fight against Machida. I don’t think people are sour on the fact that he went to do TUF, they’re impatient cause they want the Machida vs Page fight now, and they’re really sour because, not only is Page getting paid phat on the show, he’s getting a good pay day off a fight with Rashad afterward AND the title fight will STILL be waiting when he gets done.

I wonder if it’s occured to the Rampage apologists yet that his fight with Rashad isn’t even going to be the main event for the stacked New Year’s card.

Last year Wanderlei/Rampage was the third main event. The year before the Chuck/Wanderlei Superfight was the co-main event. You can bet your asses there will be at least one big title fight ahead of Rashad/Rampage that will steal the lion’s share of the hype.

You guys have been talking about how Machida/Rampage wouldn’t do the numbers Rashad/Rampage would (a completely ridiculous and totally incorrect assumption… Machida is a hot commodity after his well-publicized beatdown of Rashad). How can the numbers be compared when Rampage/Rashad isn’t even the main event?

JJ: I don’t get the point of your argument; I’m not arguing that Page vs Machida is or isn’t going to do the same ppv buys that Page vs Shad is going to do. I’m saying from a business perspective it doesn’t make any sense for him to pass on TUF (which is basically free money, air time on spike and a free vehicle), and a fight with Rashad to jump straight to the title fight with Machida, when Machida isn’t going anywhere; that title shot will still be there assuming Page can keep winning. And if he can’t keep winning then who’s interested in that fight anyway? Most the people trying to say he’s scared of Machida are just sour that they don’t get to see the fight right away and they have to wait. Well too bad!

Also as far as Machida being a hot commodity… I got some friends who are just casual fans, they watch every now and again when I order a PPV; and they just so happened to catch the Shad vs Chida fight; I guarantee if today I called one of them up and said “Hey, you remember that Lyoto Machida fight we saw in May?” Their response would probably be “who?”.

If I mentioned Rampage, Wanderlei, Chuck or even Rashad (Thx to TUF and the fact that they don’t like him); they’d know exactly who I was talking about.

Yeah JJ,I Don’t get your point either…The Wand/Page fight was the 3rd main even on that night b/c the 2 other fight was for a title and their fight wasn’t.How,can you be serious by saying this?The same,can be said for the Chuck/Page fight the year before!

For the numbers how,can you be positive of which fight,will generated more,than the other?Did you find a survey or statistic or something to prove your saying?

As for Machida’s be a hot commodity…I sure haven’t heard much of him lately and I haven’t see more ad of him anywere…just a sh!t load of Kimbo’s and the Spider,but no LaCheetah.You probably won’t hear about him till he fight again and if by chance his fight get on the same card than GSP you,can be sure that he won’t be the top main even of that night.

OD: Machida is now way more popular than Rashad. That’s my point. John was claiming in a past thread that Rashad/Rampage was a bigger fight than Machida/Rampage and the numbers would prove it. My point is that those numbers are incomparable due to the fact that Rashad/Rampage won’t be a main event.

Alpha: The higher the weight class, the bigger the title fight. WW and LW title fights don’t sell as many buys as LHW or HW fights. That’s why GSP/Alves, the two top ranked welterwights in the world, takes a backseat to Lesnar/Mir two HWs who aren’t even top 5. So Machida would definitely trunmp GSP if they were to fight on the same card, which they won’t.

Yea JJ, my point at the end was no I don’t think Machida’s that popular yet. Like I said, my friends that only watch every now and again know who Rashad Evans is; they have no clue who Machida is even though they’ve seen him fight!

Your right JJ!Good point!
