Fight week, blog week!
The world's largest fight promotion returns to "The Land of the Rising Sun" this coming Sat., Feb. 25, 2012, with UFC 144: "Edgar vs. Henderson" from the Saitiama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.
And UFC President Dana White is pumping out blogs to get us ready for it. Highlights from episode one, which centers around backstage goings on from UFC 143, include:
- White thought Matt Riddle vs. Henry Martinez was "the worst mismatch in UFC history" when it was made and congratulated both fighters on a job well done after a close contest that went the distance.
- Alex Caceres doesn't even remember hitting Edwin Figueroa in the balls the second time.
- Roy Nelson thought he won at least one round and maybe even two. So "Big Country" actually thought he beat Fabricio Werdum.
- Nick Diaz felt like he won the first, second and fifth rounds and maybe lost the third and fourth. He also made a conscious decision not to chase Carlos Condit down during the fight. You get to see plenty of Diaz backstage as he passionately describes his view of the action in the cage.
- The video ends with UFC poking fun at Nelson as he lays out his case for winning the second and third round against Werdum.
Stay tuned for the next one, Maniacs.

roy
must be high lol
and head kick to bruce leroy must of affected him more than i thought if he only thought it was 1 nut shot lol
why not???
he was coming forward and getting outstruck just like diaz
and alot of people on here say oh nick won he pushed forward the whole fight
so if nick can “win” a fight he was outstruck in just by moving forward why can’t roy?
2 week sig bet with Kalejohncox Mir over Cain
haha
the difference is werdum made roy bleed condint didn’t make nick bleed
condit outstruck nick, nick pushed forward
werdum outstruck roy, roy pushed forward
in all reality roy had werdum in more troulbe than nick ever had condit in
so i guess the reall difference is that pushing forward is the only thing you can latch to , to claim a diaz win where as you’re not a roy nuthugger so it doesn’t matter he pushed forward the same or more so than diaz
2 week sig bet with Kalejohncox Mir over Cain
I love how Dana scratches his head when they announced Condit won

And Dana goes to Condit with the belt and the camera guy goes see the Diaz reaction, lol.
It's all about the entertainment.
People wanted to boo Lesnar for WWE shit?
The fact that the camera stayed on Diaz because people are more interested in his childish antics than the winner of the fucking fight. First new title holderat WW in what 4 years? People are more worried about Nick’s stupid antics, that is WWE shit right there.

White thought Matt Riddle vs. Henry Martinez was “the worst mismatch in UFC history” when it was made
yeah, sure, cause Matt Riddle is so fucking good…….
UFC 144 picks: Zhang 1st Rnd SUB, Mitsuoka 2nd Rnd SUB, Lee UD, Bader UD, Cantwell UD, Mizugaki UD, Kongo UD, Hioki UD, Pettis 2nd Rnd SUB, Okami UD, Shields UD, Edgar UD(sig bet with Scottidog)
Sig bet record 2-6*
He was SO much bigger thats why
I am never picking Riddle EVER again. I dont care if he is fighting my sister, that guy has 0 fight IQ.

my thoughts as well
It wouldnt have mattered though becuase of the the damm pot smoking ordeal.
please explain to me how?
because he pushed forward? that’s all he did walked towards calos got punched kicked and kneed as carlos circled away from the fence and reset over and over
diaz dragged him down at the end of the fifth but calos ended up on top of him
so really tell me how the guy who lands less strikes won that fight that was as clear as a decision can get , if you can’t see that then you are obviously blinded by your love for nicky

I cant believe they have a little booth for the fighters to get checked out at right next to each other.
They should have some distance to them or at least in separate rooms. One of these days either fighters or trainers are going to get into a fight
I don't know about that man
Sure fighters can be hotheads but where ever the decision falls whether it’s disputed or not, it’s the judges who cause the damage.

Dana scratching his head when Condit was announced the champ.
They should really have a rematch, that was a BS decision imo.
"..That man has to be eliminated." - Fedor Emelianenko
Yeah they should......
And I’m pretty sure they were going to if that retard didn’t fail his piss test. Immature morons- the Diaz brothers

Werdum must have really shaken Nelson up
He thought he won not one, but TWO rounds ..lol come on
"..That man has to be eliminated." - Fedor Emelianenko
the new fighters treat Dana like the pope
I am willing to test myself against the toughest fighters in the world, in front of hundreds of thousands or even millions of fans, over and over again. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, but I always come to fight. I've been doing this for the past fourteen years, and I have at least a few more strong years left in me. What have you done in the past fourteen years other than act like a moron on this forum and hang on Anderson's nuts? - Dan Henderson.
Matt Riddle was ready to give him some sloppy toppy...
And he was trying hard to convince Martinez to do the same
Nelson
Idiot, if only the dude could get KOed
