Quoteworthy:
"Yeah, it didn’t look like he tried too hard. He’s been fighting for a long time and that’s the only fight I’ve seen in which he didn’t attempt a takedown. I think he was kind of beat before he entered the ring. He kind of conceded like he’ll get paid but won’t win this one."
"The American Psycho" weighs in on the losing performance of Mark Coleman, who came up empty against fellow 40-something Hall of Famer Randy Couture at UFC 109 from the Mandalay Bay Events Center back on Feb. 6. Bonnar may have the dubious honor of being the last man to lose to "The Hammer" now that the former PRIDE and UFC heavyweight has been released from his Zuffa contract -- unless of course he returns to Japan to open a few Japanese tomato cans. Anyone think Coleman will keep fighting?

Thanks Captain Obvious!
he looked weak against you too Bonnar, but you just sucked even more.

F*k off Bonnar
At least Coleman knows what it feels like to be a UFC champion and a Hall of Famer. Last time I checked, that “defeated man” beat your ass!!!!

agreed
Coleman looked BEAT when he came in. I think its time for Coleman to hang’em up, though I’d love to see him smash tito’s face in, I just don’t see it happening.

he probably overtrained
He seemed to gas out in the first 2 minutes. My guess is he either seriously overtrained, or had a devil of a time making weight. Randy is soooo meticulous in his diet, monitoring his blood levels and everything and has much more experience cutting to 205. Coleman has always looked ill at 205, but this time, he looked like a cancer-patient before the fight really even got started. Something was definitely wrong with him physically.

I think he prob needs to keep fighting to pay the bills
Fedor invented a language that incorporates Sambo and Kimuras.
So next time FEDOR is kicking your ass, don't be offended or hurt, he may be just trying to tell you he likes your hat.
sadly.
hopefully he gets out without becoming a vegetable

'in' just glad too ;)
I’d hate for Coleman to be the one to expose Brock with relentless ’hammer’s’.

because if it did...
Coleman could be up there right now with Tanner and Eilers.
Think about how dumb the average person is, then realize that half of them are even dumber than that.

I don't see why he can't commentate
Sign some autographs, do some Q&A sessions, rep the UFC by doing some interviews or some PR; the guy has options he’s just too stubborn to cash in on them.

Also might be trying to live beyond his means..
Guess a lot of people get sucked in to a certain life style and refuse to downgrade no matter what the writing on the wall says.

Excellent points, OD.

i was wondering that myself
But he isn’t the greatest speaker, but I am sure they can find someplace at Zuffa where he can be an asset

Dont be bitter, Bonnar…just because your success was attributed to steriod use… good luck being relevant in 205lb div. without em..should change the nickname to “the american cycle” anyway…I dont think Coleman has actually wanted to fight for some time..as others have stated..its just a matter of getting paid..and nobody wants to see someone half-ass it in there…especially in a main event! Do yourself a favor, Mark..and hang em up for good, bud
When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
Shouldn’t Bonnar be worrying about this dude ?

this dude sucks!!
did you see him and vera that was terrible and a joke!! i look for boner to win the decision in this one
he's got potential
give him a break…he’s still green in his career.

he's actually pretty experienced
Fedor invented a language that incorporates Sambo and Kimuras.
So next time FEDOR is kicking your ass, don't be offended or hurt, he may be just trying to tell you he likes your hat.
Sucks? Lets see what you have to say after he takes Bonnar’s arm home with him.

you're right, he is.
i do remember seeing some names on his record.

Done son!
At some point, everyone’s time comes up. Saturday was Coleman’s. He’s no Couture, who despite his longevity, will eventually succumb to time himself. You can see him diminishing with each of his last 2 fights. Close one with Vera (who I thought should have won that fight), and the other to Nog. You can’t really gauge him with the Coleman fight, as he was fighting a old broken down fighter. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a Couture fan, always have been, always will be. I’m just looking at it in a realistic point of view. Put him up against Franklin, Jackson, T. Silva or even Rua or Evans. Any victory over those fighters will definitely show how much he has left.
Shut up boner
wow this guy shouldnt be talking about anybody he’s done nothing since getting the contract i dont think forrest is very good but at least he’s fought some big names and even won the championship (according to those judges) the biggest name bonnar has fought is forrest griffin. also u look like a dumb ass when u talk shit about a guy that has beaten u

Bonnar's expressing his opinion, and he's right.
Coleman seems done, physically and mentally. He’s usually a really competitive and intense guy but he was shockingly slow and weak. He had nothing! He didn’t go for any takedowns or do anything.
