By the way guys, today (as well as every other day) you NEED to remember who is fighting for our independence! Thanks to all the maniacs and all the men and woman around the world that fight for my freedom! Sometimes we all take life and freedom for granted, but I truly appreciate you folks putting your life on the line for our great country!

Fight Announcement (September):
Bobby Lashely vs. Don Frye

by John G on Jul 4, 2009 9:21 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

No way man. . . You have to be joking. If true, its a perfect matchup for Lashely and Frye wont stand a chance.

by belfort_fan on Jul 4, 2009 9:35 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Just read it on sherdog. If it follows through that is rediculious!! I would love to see Frye compete again but not against such an up and comer.

by belfort_fan on Jul 4, 2009 9:38 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Is Lashley trying to follow in Kimbo’s footsteps?

Support the troops and win 2 UFC 100 tix

Ryan Bader…Hey guys, I am working with a sponsor that is doing a great thing

with the troops overseas. They have donated a ton of product and if you can

check it out, and maybe send a box of “Klenz” to a soldier you will be entered

to win UFC 100 tickets. Thanks for the support.

DaMarques Johnson signs multi-fight deal with UFC

Recent "The Ultimate Fighter 9: United States vs. United Kingdom" welterweight finalist DaMarques Johnson (9-7) has been awarded a multi-fight contract with the Ultimate Fighting Championship, according to a report from The Salt Lake Tribune. The award comes on the heels of the Salt Lake City native’s losing performance at the "TUF 9 Finale" on June 20th where he was soundly defeated by season winner James “Lightning” Wilks (6-2) via submission (rear-naked choke) at 4:54 of the first round.

Regarding his newfound employment, Johnson had the following to say, “Coming in second place in a fist fight kind of sucks. [But] it didn’t turn out all bad.”

Aside from the number of fights, the details of Johnson’s UFC contract were not disclosed.

Johnson had three fights over the course of the Spike TV hosted reality show, one elimination bout to earn a spot on the "United States" team, and two others to reach the his spot in the finale. He won each of those bouts (considered exhibitions) by technical knockout, submission, and unanimous decision, respectively.

Johnson, a former army soldier, began to practice mixed martial arts under the tutelage of UFC veteran Jeremy Horn.

Hey Alpha i just got back into training. Im gunna try to fight on the July 23rd card for Warriors Cage the day before my 19th B-day!!!! That will be sweet. Anyways Im a bit out of shape after the month and a half off so if im not ready then i will be fighting for sure August 19th man.

by belfort_fan on Jul 4, 2009 10:39 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Great to hear you back on track…you should go for August 19th instead.1 1/2 month off is enough time to retrograde your physical abilities and 18 days is a short period of time to get you back in shape.I know your eager to fight,but don’t make mistake by rushing into things.Like I told you the other day…nobody want undeserved loss to his record.Good luck in the gym man and keep me post on your intention.

by kevin on Jul 4, 2009 8:31 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Anybody that thinks the war in Iraq has anything to do with our freedom is a fool.

by Madnuts on Jul 4, 2009 10:03 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Either way support our troops! By all means protest the war, but give it up for those forced to fight in it.

random thought, does anyone think that maia can beat nate the great, i want him to but i feel that hes too one dimentional to beat such a well rounded fighter, can u guys share ur thoughts with me about this??

by guyverbob on Jul 4, 2009 3:15 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

i personally think nate will rearrange his shit, but what do i know? I thought the other nate would do much better against him…

by just some dong on Jul 4, 2009 3:57 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I was wanting Quarry to win that fight. But Maia impressed the shit out of me like he always does.

They say Im slow cuz im from Canada hey.

by RiverHorror on Jul 5, 2009 10:30 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Your right Kevin, sarcasm doesn’t translate well in print. I just wasn’t comfortable enough in my sexuality to use a winking emoticon. You know…it would be like having to mention you have a wife and kids in EVERY thread.

by Amos on Jul 5, 2009 11:43 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

yeah, that makes sense, i’m searching fo the last thread I mentioned that…oh wait, stinky and pw were having that conversation the other day, i wasn’t involved. you’re a troll and a douche buddy! I’ve kept it mma for months now!

You probably gave Kevin too much subliminal content to comprehend there Amos!

I’ll be in Vegas for UFC 100 but I could only find reasonably priced tix for the closed circuit viewing at the Mandalay Bay. Anyone got actual tix they’re willing to sell?

If not, I predict the following winners:

Mir
GSP
Hendo
