Im no Sonnen supporter at all. Buut. Its one thing to trash talk to sell a fight and another to outright just be a dikk.

Chael seems like a nice dude. Most fighters say Chael is one of the nicest guys in the industry. I don't think that he'd just outright lie about this shyt..its possible sure, but Bron does strike me as the type to be a douche in public like his shyt dont stink.

He lies all the time. He may be a "pleasant" guy to talk to but he's been caught in a money laundering scheme and snitched on his accomplices, he illegally used testosterone (PED's) against Silva, he tried to kneebar Mark Munoz in a college wrestling match, he "fake taps" like his buddy Matt Lindland and he lied under oath claiming he has hypogonadism and would die if he didn't use testosterone. He also quite recently lied about the Dan Henderson-Jon Jones situation and only caved in when his friend Henderson told him to cut the bullshyt.

By all accounts he's a compulsive liar, attention whore and kind of a slimeball. Why would he wait until now (Heat in the finals) to reveal all these things about Lebron when this supposedly happened a year ago? He wants the attention and had to justify his unwarranted attack on James by smearing his character. I don't believe anything this guy says. UFC version of Skip Bayless.

If Lebron James acted the way Sonnen claimed all the time it would have come out a long ass time ago. And Adrian Wojnarowski is not a credible source for those willing to bring up his smear articles.

Umm.. I think you guys are taking Chael too seriously. I thought it was obvious he was joking about Lebron. Not joking in a nice way, I mean he is making shyt up to make you laugh at Lebron.

He did the same to Nogueira. He said Nogueira got off the plane from Brazil and try to pet a bus and feed it a carrot because Nogueira's a country bumpkin. Hilarious and disrespectful. It's not that serious but he got you talking about him.

Ain't shyt to talk about for two weeks. :sadcam:

With so much MMA going on normally, I don't mind the break.

Thought the Bellator show was solid, will try to watch Fight Master this weekend. Both Babalu and Seth Petruzelli have retired following their Bellator losses. King Mo shouldn't have a problem beating Jacob Noe in the LHW Finals.

A shame they won't be doing a BW tourney this summer.

Invicta FC's next ppv will be thru TV/cable/satellite providers for $15.

this sounds like a step in the wrong direction, the old structure seemed more fan friendly and cost effective. I am struggling to figure out why they would rather restrict their audience to the states/canada only.While paying a ppv provider half their profits. When the old way they could be viewed by ppl all over the world keepin all their profits

Is there really anyone out there who can beat Jon Bones Jones? Of course there is, and when it happens, one of the greatest fights of all time.

Must be some financial benefit to making the switch, don't remember how much the online ppv were but maybe if they get less people watching for more money it might work out for them. Plus I believe people outside US/Canada can still view it online.
