MMA Quick Quote: Is Keith Jardine working his way back to a UFC title shot?

Keith_jardine_medium

The "Dean of Mean" certainly thinks so...

"This is just step one for me, is the way I look at it. This is step one on my way back to a UFC title. My career's not going to be complete until I fight for that UFC title. That's what this is all about for me. This is just step one, and when I get through this, and get onto step two. I've been around something like 13 or 14 fights in the UFC, most of them have been main event or co-main event, so I've seen the pressure before and this one really doesn't compare to some of the other fights. Mentally I'm a lot stronger and in a better place right now. This is just all about the fight, I'm not worried about much else. It's entirely up to me. My destiny's in my own hands. The UFC wants me back there, I want to be back there. String a few wins together and I'll be back there."

Jardine sounded confident during his appearance on MMA Weekly Radio, but how many times in recent memory have we seen "The Mean 1" go stiff in a high profile match-up? If the former Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 2 contestant ever hopes to get back into the Octagon he must first get past Trevor Prangley on Sept. 11 under the Shark Fights banner. Anyone think he's got the tools to get it done?

Fine I'll do it

If Keith Jardine ever fights for a UFC title I will record this shit and put it on youtube for you to see as I gag and nearly die eating the tin foil.

You guys want to watch something funny on you tube???

Type in, “muscle man afraid of spider.” It’s me freaking out over a spider at work. I went swimming with my phone a few days prior and I was excited that it started working. I made a video of such to send to my gf. At which time I saw a spider crawling towards me. I know it’s a girly reaction, but it’s a phobia I can’t shake. LOL Check it out guys.

Anderson Silva is by far the number one P4P king!!! Even when he is losing a fight he still comes back and finishes for the win! GSP dominates the whole fight and still can't finish! LOL

funny shit

you should come out to the desert and check out some of our bugs. You would love it here.

Not only does BJ Penn quit on his stool versus guys that are bigger than him...He gets tooled by guys that are SMALLER than him. BJ should just stick to jumping out of pools, not fighting. I shoulda listened to Ulf.

But Sharks scare the shit outta me. I have never/will never swim in the ocean because of them.

But for some reason I can't get enough of Shark Week when it's on

watching and thinking about how that thing could rip me apart and eat me alive with barely any effort is just too entertaining…

love shark week

Also, the open ocean is my biggest fear as well. But, I still swim in it. Tells ya how smart (or stupid) I am. It’s not just sharks, but currents and rip tides that scare me as well.

LOL Duece, "currents and rip tides."

I go in the ocean, but never to far out. My girl and I were on this kayak thing in the Bahamas. We weren’t that far out when we tipped. I bugged the fuck out while my girl was cool as ice. Same girl that I sent the video to and that I’m still with now. Amazing that she doesn’t think I’m a sissy!

its the current you really gotta worry about

pull ya out, they report you drowned, but who the hell knows man, just as likely you were eaten by a damn shark. I believe many, many “drownings” under these circumstances were likely shark attack victims. But, no body, lost in the ocean, they just say you drowned.

Holy shit O damn!!! Me too!!!

Sharks frighten me bc there is nothing you can do against them! At least a bear you could ran, climb, hide. Doubt you make it, but you can do something, but not against a shark. You just wade there in the ocean. Ever see open water? That movie freaks me out to no end. And I too love shark week! LOL

statistically speaking

you are more likely to die from a hole, then a shark. You know those dudes always digging holes in the sand. Those things are death traps. I never understood the desire to go to the beach on vacation only to dig a damn hole. I can do landscaping at home thanks.

agreed

many drownings are really shark attacks. When you get swallowed and no one is around to see it, you drowned.

I love the water and do think of sharks when I'm in the ocean! Which is why I only go out to where the waves break.

The one good thing when I lived in NC was that I lived on a lake. NO SHARKS!!! I loved not having to think about that.

It was either Wand or Houston that broke it for him

He just kept gettin rocked after that. 4 straight losses in the UFC; the majority of fighters in the world don’t get that many chances to prove themselves. If he gets another shot it would be a hell of comeback.

Just something about the style, I just couldn’t appreciate it at all. I know it worked and he was able to compete but sometimes I’d be sitting there watching, thinking to myself, “this guy’s really a pro fighter AND winning??”

which obviously didnt do a damn bit of good

You’d think he woulda dropped it around the 3rd consecutive loss (and ko I believe)…maybe he needs to increase the nipple count…tweak the ref’s and his opponents nipples at the stare-down

by salamagogo on Sep 7, 2010 11:08 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

It was the exposure

If it wasn’t for Rashad no one would know about the tweak and it would still work. GSP was real slick about it, he snuck it in and you never even saw it. Now the magic is gone.

Yea he would

He’s a name; the 2nd Jardine signed on the dotted line he’d be given a #1 contender fight. I guarantee it. SF doesn’t have much of a roster; he’ll get Mo, Mousasi, Babs or Hendo right off.

 for having to listen to his buddy Rashad commentating during his fight? Don’t find your way back Keith so I don’t have to listen to Evans talk about your great come-back story and tell us right after you are nearly knocked out, “This is where he fights best.” Where is that? Queer street?
