UFC Quick Quote: Fights inside the Octagon are 'lame' and 'boring'

Kj-noons_medium

"I am especially really excited about my opponent and when you put our two styles in the ring you are really going to have a lot of fireworks. In my eyes, Jorge is the No. 1 contender so this a top fight for me.  By no means am I acting like I have this one in the bag. I am training as hard as I can. This is probably one of the most dangerous opponents I have had.... Jorge comes out and puts on great shows, but if you want to watch jiu-jitsu, go to a tournament. This is fighting.  If you want to see some lame fighting go watch the UFC, go watch something boring as hell. If you want to see something exciting, come Aug. 21 and see a guy who’s been boxing his whole life, and someone who has a black belt in jiu-jitsu. This is what people want to see.... I don’t have to say it very much but look at his track record: He has the fight of the night, and look at my track record (and I) always (have) fight of the night. Put us in the cage and you are going to get fireworks. I have respect for the main event but we are probably going to steal the show."

-- Former Elite XC lightweight champion and current 155-pound Strikeforce contender, KJ Noons, fired a shot across the bow of the world's top mixed martial arts promotion today during the "Houston" press conference call, saying that fights inside the Octagon are "lame" and "boring." He squirts more fuel on the fire, saying that his upcoming fight with Jorge Gurgel, which takes place at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas, on Sat., Aug. 21, is pure excitement. Has the "King" lost his mind or is it just an attempt to draw more viewers to the Showtime telecast on fight night? Tune in and find out.

KJ Noons with all due respect, u cant sell god to god fearing people

You are not a draw at all, i have problem with Strikeforce but, to say that best fighters in the world are boring? just stupid,

by ThePunisher on Aug 12, 2010 11:07 PM EDT reply actions  

Is he serious??

K.J. Noons is probably one of the boringest fighters in strikeforce so that means hes like the most boring fighter in like all of mma. Ufc puts on the best fights all strikeforce has is a few superfights

by enjoimike49 on Aug 12, 2010 11:10 PM EDT reply actions  

I don’t think hes boring, but hes cleary trash talking the UFC to feel good about himself and his shitty company..

Absolute nonsense! Fair enough he’s trying to sell the fight, but let’s not talk bollocks!!!! Realistically, he’s fighting a guy that got fired by the UFC because he simply was not good enough to cut it. I could pick out nearly ten fighters in the UFC ligtweight division that would get the win over KJ right now. The guy is a living in cuckoo land!

by Lane86 on Aug 12, 2010 11:27 PM EDT reply actions  

I agree with KJ 100% because

The majority of UFC cards are like lower end crappy SF cards SF damn near 100%of the time brings it its extremely rare for anyone other then Dana and his cocksuckers to not be happy after a SF card. The last UFC card was great but SF is basically always like that all the time the difference being that the UFC fighters are ranked higher(even if some definitely dont deserve the ranking) so people somehow feel that being ranked higher=more exciting or some stupid shit like that….Or maybe Dana tells them its more exciting so since their big daddy says it it must be true!

This should be an extremely good fight between the two unless KJ goes in their and TKO’s Jorge in the first which is very possible.

I like KJ, but this is rubiiish.

I’m glad SF is around I enjoy there cards and they play a great role in MMA as #2, but their roster is full of ex-UFC guys, either because they couldn’t hack it or they wanted another option so the whole this is ridddiic

just because he doesnt have a gold medal like mercer, held titles in 3 weightclasses like toney...hes still a pro boxer

not everyone can be pac, or roy jones,

hes had 14 pro boxing matches…hes 12-2…

how many other mma fighters do you think could go into pro boxing and go 12-2 against even the most bottom tier fighters? you could count them all on one hand…

gilbert milendez is the current lw champ in kjs division…if he went into pro boxing do you think he could go 12-2 against pro boxers? could jake shields go 12-2 against pro boxers? could chael sonnen who is the number 2 mw in the world go 12-2 in pro boxing?

brock is the ufc hw champ, you think he could go 12-2 in pro boxing?
gsp is the ufc ww champ, you think he could go 12-2 in pro boxing?
edgar is the lw champ, he has good striking, but you think he would go 12-2 in pro boxing?

werdum just beat fedor, who is considered the GREATEST mma fighter of ALL time…how do you think he’d do in 14 pro boxing fights?

my point is that the most successful mma fighters today couldnt go into pro boxing and go 12-2 against pro boxers of the lowest calibur

HERES A LINK TO THE FIRST KJ/DIAZ FIGHT FOR THOSE WHO HAVENT SEEN IT…

kj stuffed like 7 of nick’s tds…nick couldnt work his jits because he COULDNT GET KJ DOWN…and kj was still new to the sport in this fight…he had only had like 6 pro fights when he fought diaz….kj doesnt train jits or wrestling or any grappling, hes strictly a boxer only….yet he continuelly stuffed td after td attempt from nick and dropped nick…..

kj was a rookie when he fought nick….and stuffed multiple tds…nick was an experienced mma fighter and kj picked him apart…watch the fight again…and count the stuffed td attempts..

at 2:23 is the vicious 2 punch combo that landed that caused the first cut on diaz, shit was a nasty hook….

then diaz took kj down, had kj in half guard, kj spun around and got right up like it wasnt shit

at 4:02 he drops nick to cause the 2nd cut

dude he fucked diaz up…those were solid shots that fucked diaz up and made him bleed….especially that 2nd shot that dropped nick at 4:02…watch how solid that shot was, and that shit cut nick for the 2nd time…and at that point the fight was pretty much over…nick was scooting around on his ass for the next half of the fight, he was done…he couldnt get kj down, kj tooled him

by LOKIE on Aug 13, 2010 12:06 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

they'll fight again....that fight will have SO much hype if kj wins this next fight...i think it will be bigger now...

he left and persued boxing for some gay reason…if they had immediately rematched it would have been cool….but if they rematch now it will be a MUCH bigger fight and there will be more interest…especially if kj beats a big name like jorge…

maybe he bitched out for the same reason fedor bitched out of the ufc…wanted too much money for the fight…and elite ex went under shortly after that anyway…so wouldnt have really mattered….

but you can have a MUCH bigger fight now if kj has a good performance next week

oh i guarantee you'll see this fight again, nick is more bitter about this loss than any loss in his entire career

hes been wanting this rematch for over 2 years…hed cut to 135 if he had to in order to get the chance to pound kj’s face into mush….he sees kj starting to get some media attention after a big win nick will be like “fuck that stupid bitch, im gonna murder his stupid bitch ass, fuck him….ima go smoke a fat fucking blount and fantasize of all the ways ima murder him”….

he’d cut one of his arms off to make weight to fight him again

"If you want to see some lame fighting go watch the UFC, go watch something boring as hell."

That was his actual quote… So he’s just calling out the UFC…. But its ok, he fights in strikeforce and isn’t even the Co main event. So he can say dumb shit like this to try to make himself look cool, cause he knows he hasn’t got a chance to be in the ufc so saying stuff like this wont really hurt him.
