Is this really how Dana is repaying us for the Silva spectacle?

By giving us a mediocre fight night card and claiming it’s PPV worthy (yes I know it’s free). It’s pretty hard not to call this card lame with a headliner of Bisping and Akiyama. Asides from the Condit/Hardy fight…there isn’t much to get excited for on this card.

Buster: Let me go with you. I was trained by Army. I speak the language.
Michael: You speak Arabic?
Buster: La-ach-ha-tem.
Michael: What’s that mean?
Buster: No, I was just clearing my throat, but I think it actually does mean "laundry" but like a child’s laundry. We don’t really have a word for it.

I can believe that

The UFC are desperate to manufacture Mick a title shot. Expect his next fight to be a rematch against Wand, very winnable, that’s three on the spin – TITLE SHOT!

lets face it they cant pit him against any top contenders, he’d get a shallacking like he always does.

Considering I live 20 mins from the arena,I consider a night at what is essentially a ufc fight night,a pretty decent night out.And of course I can say its a shit card,because it is a shit card,everyone here pretty much says the same thing.However,a shit card does not mean a shit event.I remember going to UFC 95,and a hell of a lot of people were complainin about that card,especially the main event,but that was one of the best eventsI have been too.

I have gone to Atlanta Chuck v Rashad,been to Dublin,Manchester,Birmingham and Newcastle for ufc but if I didn’t live near the arena,I would not travel for this,cage-rage event.A fair bit of talent has been showcased in England,but this really takes the piss.I think I will wait for Dana to tweet free tickets for this event,cos no way will this sell-out.

Americans for some reason have a massive chip on their shoulders about British fighters, this i don’t understand – we have only two decent training camps in a country with a population of 60 million but yet the fighters we have in the ufc are all worthy contender fighters (Bisping included – only lost to previous belt holders).
Just because he sounds like a bit of dick you guys hate him, i could do a massive list of American fighters who all sound and act like dicks (Josh Kos anyone?).
I don’t agree that Bisping should have a title shot IF he wins this fight, that should be Leben because he deserves it – even though i think he’s a dick.
The first person from England to lift a belt in the UFC will be Ross Pearson, mark my words Americans the so called British invasion is coming – to kick some sour faced, xenophobic American Ass!

i dont think its too far fetched to believe ross may have a belt sometime in the future. Hes gritty and pretty talented. However I do believe hes going to need to change things up camp wise eventually if he wants to compete with the upper echelon

by Tobiasward on Jul 20, 2010 4:01 PM EDT reply actions  

Pearson and HAthaway are both part of the next gen of British fighters, but

they need to put in their time and work theri way up the ladder.

Hathaway, on his best night right now, loses to at least 5 guys (GSP, Fitch, Kos, Alves, and Shields) every time. Pearson to 5 as well (BJ, Kenny, Gray, Sot, Frankie). Those are off the top of my head guaranteed loses. It doesn’t include the Kampmann’s and Sherk’s of the world who would be favored but might lose.

I just hope neither gets tagged as the next big thing and gets babied like Bisping. They need to take small steps up the ladder and fight guys on their level. I think both of them could accomplish alot if tehy continue along the right path, but both need to come to camps in the US to get over the top. HAthaway could both use some time at AKA or Jackson’s to refine their games.

Yeah lots

There’s an autograph booth featuring all your favourite UFC stars including Terry Etim, Denis Siver, Paul “Telly’s” Kelly and Paul Taylor.

Plus a fight seminar with Robert “Buzz” Berry and a Q & A session with Jordan and Alex “The Reidonator” Reed

This is such bullshit.

They wonder why the UFC is taking off as much in the UK as they had projected. The last card (although entertaining in the end) was weak, and only given some credibility late on with the addition of Randy…fighting Brandon fucking Vera!

British fans do want to see British fighters, but not in every fight. All we’re asking for is a fight that means something within the organisation. Hendo v Rampage was in 2007! UFC 80 was the last decent card in the UK, full of international fighters and a legitimate main event.

They cant keep fobbing us off with these ‘Fight Night’ cards, slapping a number on it so we think we’re getting a legit event (while its broadcast free everywhere else). We’re lucky to get one event a year, and I dont know how the UFC expect fans to come and spend their hard earned cash with Bisping v Akiyama as a main event.
