Dude are you serious?

I’ve wondered at times why people feel the need to post absolute non sense.

I mean it’s got to be more than trying weak attempts at humor or is it just stupidity.

Who cares about King Mo?

This guy calls himself the best and hasn’t fought anyone.

If you are cocky, you need to at least beat someone in the top 50 in the world.

It’s the truth that’s what it is.. It’s pretty funny that a guy considers himself to be the best in the world after beating the worst possible opposition he can get..

King Mo is pretty good. Give him some time and he’ll be up there with the greats. You can’t really say much about him now but.. let him earn some experience. He used to be a wrestling champ for few years in different division and tournaments, and I know competitiveness will carry over to MMA.

This is real world class people not joe rogan world class. This guy trains with everybody and he’s a white belt under the Nogs and Dean Lister. The first all elbow vids they did on him is one of my favorite MMA documentary.

where’s Rampage was after his 4th fight as Mo? do you see Rampage rose quickly as King Mo has and how do you know Mo sucks? he only went thru 4 fights geez it’s too early call him out, not enough fights to see his true potential yet. you are not an mma fan just a simple ufc fan.

King Mo is awesome I hope he does well…

king Mo will not do good in the long-run. Being cocky like that has hurt so many stars beforee becasue they quit working hard. They start to believe the hype and stupid leaches around them and they get lazy. This is a prime candidate for that type of scenario.

King Mo is just a ticking time-bomb waiting to be exposed – he’d get destroyed by at least 5 of the LHWs in the UFC.

by jayshogun on Aug 20, 2009 10:57 PM EDT reply actions

“waiting to get exposed”

How many of his fights have you seen?

And other than inexperience what are the major holes in his game that these guys are going to expose?

by jumponthis on Aug 20, 2009 11:31 PM EDT up reply actions

Yeah, I saw him fight and his “holes” are his stand up game. He dosent do anything right, and by watching this video he’s actually trains that way. he may get by kerr but put him againt any decent wm or lhw and no mo king mo.

If peter graham says his striking is coming along, then his striking is coming along. Also his wrestling is an automatic equalizer against anyone in MMA. Don’t know why people like to hate on fighters with 4 fights. He’s still a pup in this game but because Hampage got his panties twisted in a bunch everyone turns on Mo.

by NameNotRequired on Aug 20, 2009 11:56 PM EDT up reply actions

Bobby you lost any credibility by saying “he may get by kerr”.

After that statement alone your opinion is worthless.

Add to that your comment “put him againt any decent wm or lhw and no mo king mo”, and your entire post is asinine.

by jumponthis on Aug 21, 2009 1:10 AM EDT up reply actions

look Bob, every fighter has holes but they improve thru training and Mo is still green, you sayin he couldn’t match up with any decent lhw or mw what are you talking about? even the decent UFC fighter Dean Lister couldn’t take him down easily.

by Texican on Aug 21, 2009 10:42 AM EDT up reply actions

Well, then maybe Mo should try and be more of an up and commer than a super star. I’ve seen more King MO post in the last 6 months than almost anyone else. tons of other guys have put their time in and the media still put the focus on loud mouth’s.

Some of you Mo fans need to get off his dick. So he beat Travis Wiuff. Now he’s shit hot and can take out Rampage? Puhleasssse

by Kenflo4ever on Aug 20, 2009 11:18 PM EDT reply actions

and you need to get off kenflo’s dick too face it he’s washed up. Travis is much bigger than Rampage with a strong chin, do you ever seen Rampage take on a bigger opponent as Mo went thru in his early days?

by Texican on Aug 21, 2009 10:16 AM EDT up reply actions

Wiuff’s chin is a joke

by ballam on Aug 21, 2009 4:26 PM EDT up reply actions

King Mo is 28yrs old has a ton of potential… give him 2-4 more yrs, he’ll be an elite fighter. He’s training with the right fighters.

by THORAZINE on Aug 21, 2009 2:30 AM EDT reply actions

funny yall haters callin Mo a can but look who’s he training with and bjj blackbelt Dean Lister can’t even take him down and made him look weak.

by Texican on Aug 21, 2009 10:08 AM EDT reply actions

Doing rehab the day after his ACL surgery….really? Apparently he must have superhuman healing powers to go along with that superhuman ego. This guy is a joke.

by Zoltar on Aug 21, 2009 3:36 PM EDT reply actions

I just don’t understand the matchup. It’s typical MMA matchmaking BS that we see in the UFC all the time. We have a guy who is fresh and starting his career with some wins and an old guy who is more than washed up who is on a huge losing streak (minus his win over that bum). Looks like a fight made for Mo to get another W and Kerr to get another paycheck and add to the shitpile which has become his career.
