The PRIDE of UFC....

Suck. Was he scheduled to fight previously?

Burk has a tramp stamp bro. You don't want to see him fight.

The SLC card isn't shaping up to be at the level as the first UFC on Versus, which was fantastic, IMO.

I won't be in St. George this weekend, Junkie am I invited? Please text me.

Can't wait for this weekend.

I really hope Rampage punches Rashad's grin off his face. Did you see that Rashad called Page a 'Sambo?' Yikes.

I don't think your knee is supposed to do that. Apparently this was a result of his opponent kneeing him just right. Yikes!

Nasty. Apparently Hess ate a flying knee and fell back awkwardly. Fought off his back, but then that happened when he tried to stand on it. Then the ref stopped it and he went out on a stretcher. That's a career ender.

Just watched the prelims, didn't realize Jin after he left the island, started training MMA. The fights sucked for me as I hate Rashad and I had a feeling that he wouldn't exchange. Shogun is going to eat him up, that'll be fun.

The Oklahoma City paper has a column on fight stuff (no, I have no idea why). They had that awful picture in there, but said that the knee injury wasn't as bad as it looked. They said he'll be out for several weeks.

So this guys submitted his trainer by ripping out his heart and the rest of his organs and throwing them in the fire. He drank some mushroom tea and thought his trainer was the devil,

Is Chael Sonnen in Anderson Silvas head?

Apparently Anderson Silva is fed up with Chael Sonnen's pre-fight posturing and he wants his Team Quest opponent to lay off.

In the above interview with Pro MMA Radio, Sonnen recalls a tense situation that occurred at this weekend's UFC Fan Expo in which Silva approached him to tell him to "relax."

Sonnen said that he told the UFC middleweight champ, who seemed frustrated by the amount of autographs he had to sign for fans at the event, that "in two months, he wouldn't have to sign any more because nobody will care about him again." Apparently Sonnen's remark was lost in translation at the time, but when one of Anderson's entourage later informed the Brazilian fighter what was actually said, he decided to seek Chael out and tell him to lay off.

It's starting to seem like Chael is getting inside Anderson's head, possibly exposing a chink in his seemingly impenetrable armor, which is likely his plan since "The Spider" has never shown any mental weakness in the past.
He's never faced a master of verbal warfare like Sonnen, either, so it should be interesting to see what happens on August 7 at UFC 117 when the pair finally lock horns.

The video is pretty funny.

Spoiler for Wow:

Awesome card. It's funny how the "crappy" cards end up being the most entertaining. All of the fights were pretty entertaining including the prelims. The Rothwell and Gilbert fight was awesome. Barry and CroCop was pretty unreal. It seemed though that Barry didn't want to beat his idol. Kampman looked awesome. And holy crap, I can't believe that Franklin kept fighting with that arm. I saw it snap when it happened and said aloud Chuck just broke his arm. Hopefully the Iceman gives it up. He's taken too many to the dome that all you need to do is punch that button and he's out. Sad end to a prolific career. Franklin is a very underrated and unappreciated fighter.
