Dear idiots: King Mo is doing you a (expletive) favor

Mo-drink_medium
Props: MMA Fanhouse

Quoteworthy:

"Someone told me, 'You got fined.' I was like what? Fined by who? I told Strikeforce. I figured that everybody knew. I think it probably had to do with the huge uproar because everybody was like, 'Mo's unsportsmanlike,' and their corny a** bulls***. They don't want to see me have fun and what not. They think this is the NFL. I'm not sponsored by Rockstar. The thing is, I couldn't have any other beverage in the ring. If I could have, I would have had Pepsi. But Rockstar is cool, they are the sponsor for Strikeforce, I have a lot of respect for Strikeforce so I just did it. Why not? I was just out there having fun. I didn't splash the mat with the drink. The drink exploded when I opened it because someone shook it up. As far as people saying, 'Yeah, Mo got the mat slippery on purpose.' Let me telling you something, you idiots: the canvas is slippery anyway. If I get Rockstar on the mat and it dries up, I'm doing them a f***ing favor, you know what I'm saying? It irritates me when people run their mouths and sh**. They always say the dumbest sh** ever and they don't know sh** about what's going on."

Recent Strikeforce acquisition Muhammed Lawal is baffled by the hoopla surrounding his post-fight energy drink mishap that hosed down the floor of the cage following his Dec. 19 TKO win over Mike Whitehad at Strikeforce: "Evolution." The California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) was not amused by his stunt and fined "King Mo" for his attempts at "having fun." Anyone out there in MMA land offended by his colorful entrances and outspoken persona?

Frank Mir packed 30+ pounds of solid muscle onto his body in five months. Why hasn't anyone called him out for steroid use? Is it because he never wrestled for Vince McMahon? I give Mir credit for his taste in strippers/wives, not his fighting skills or his personality.

Freakin' King Mo'

I’ve been watching King Mo ever since he n’ Rampage were jawing at it, he’s talented but it wasnt until this last fight that I realized he was a douchebag… they’re all learning from Brock what brings attention and Mo’ seems like a talented douchbag, just like Mir.

The entire reason he is being fined is because he added a foreign substance to that mat. And just like he said when it dries up, it would then become sticky. They did the right thing to fine him. I love his showmanship and entrances, but the man needs to watch what he says.

I can see we have another Diaz on hand, someone who wont stop flapping his gums, but unfourtantly he may have the ability to back it up. Can’t wait till someone shuts him up… and for that matter the Diazs

by RockhardMMA on Dec 22, 2009 5:17 PM EST reply actions  

makes no sense

I see them pouring water on the mat all the time, thats a foreign substance too. they did it because he’s a douche, celebrating like he’s never won before after beating yet another nobody!

by kevjack115 on Dec 22, 2009 5:20 PM EST up reply actions  

Also

if you look at the video, Im more than certain he got some on the ringside officials. Im pretty sure Peoples was sitting where he was spraying.

Water is no more a foreign substance then sweat… last time I checked you don’t sweat energy drinks…. and yes he was celebrating like a douche.

Well if Peoples got sprayed then they maybe they shouldn’t fine him….

by RockhardMMA on Dec 22, 2009 5:25 PM EST up reply actions  

The entire reason he’s being fined is because he opened the can. You can bring water into the cage. You can bring the can of energy drink that sponsors you. I believe it’s against the rules to open the can and/or drink anything but water in the cage.

by bubbafat on Dec 22, 2009 6:55 PM EST up reply actions  

Why he was fined is pretty simple

The liquid you are allowed to bring/drink/use in the octagon is water. This is mainly due to the fact that minor spillage of water will evaporate and not become a major issue to any following matches. Blood can’t be helped but is easy to spot and clean up the excess should there be any on the canvas. Once the blood has been cleaned is may stain but will not factor in the following matches. As for sweat it evaporates faster than water which is obvious as that is the whole purpose of sweat in the first place.

Liquid other than water especially clear ones maybe sticky and difficult to spot and would add to cleaning time in between fights and may play a factor in later matches.

So you are a Kimbo fan who likes Pro wrestling?

You also only watch young guys trying to get into the UFC, if it involves Kimbo? Man, you should learn to keep your fingers away from the keyboard. LOL jk. I like Kimbo and take a lot of slag for it. I don’t think he is a great fighter, just an amazing human being.

well dont watch pro wrestling anymore, just in its heyday in the late 80’s… and i have known kimbo and worked with him for a while, back when he fought bo cantrel… i like the guy.. so it was more like watching a old friend on TV… but as far as watching TUF on a regular basis to see the best prospects, Spike as pretty much ruined that by putting entertainment over getting the best young fighters… any way, i would much rather spend my time caching up on my Japanese mma fix.

Cyrille Diabate is by no means a world beater

He may have beaten Griffin, most likely in a stand up fight, but Griffin could have had the TD at will.

Jon Fitch was supposed to be on Season 1 also. Does that mean Diego would have never won? I mean, FItch already has a win over Diego…

Illegal fights in gardens set the sport back.

"Anderson Silva is the best fighter on the planet...any Anderson Silva fight that is on, people should be buying that PPV, not because he’s my fighter but you know what, he to me is like the Muhammad Ali of MMA...the UFC has been around since 1993, nobody (else) has 10 consecutive wins in the UFC. Anderson has had 10 fights in the UFC, only 1 has ever gone to a decision."

I thought it was kinda wierd , dumping that shit all over himself and the mat but I just thought it would be wiped up. I dont really get all the hate to king mo. He doesn’t go around saying he’s the best. I know Wuiff and WHitehead have been his biggest wins but the fact is he handles everyone he fights very easily. He’s just looking to make a good living and test himself like all the other guys but he just expresses it more flambouyantly. He’s actually probably very easy to work with from a promorters perspective. As far as the enterences go, that’s what you gotta do to distinguish yourself and it works for him. He probably wont lose till he gets to Gegard so maybe he’ll pick up some more fans around here next time.
