You got a link to verify that? :mjpls:

I dont know why you mentioned machida/munoz in the first place it was a dumb parallel.What peter or paul do or say is different from simon and timothy
video doesnt work and I dont care what he says on some "obscure site" now the shine is off em and hes in nowhere land.When he was getting talked about in the same sentence as jones (when he was on the come up) he basically had the attitude of "oh shucks i am just happy to be here".

Anything else you need?


Or do you just want to continue to move goal post and deflect?

I aint deflecting anything and i appreciate the link but it still ties into what i am saying.We see it more and more with ufc fighters these days when they fade into insignificance..He better say those things "now" because that is the only way he will get in the news or be remembered in general.

Aint no one checking to hear his interviews or fights. When the lights were bright and "mr wonderful" :beli: had traction he didnt want a title now hes a nobody and he just so happens to put it out there that hed readily fight gus (who happens to be no1 contender) its self promotion 101

Gus hasn't beaten up Ryan Bader yet, it's something they could use to keep him busy at least.





-P-
I was typing a reply with Badr's name before I even scrolled down to say this same thing. And I just checked Badr hasn't signed any fight contracts. So technically he is free still.

so brehs, what do you think of hendricks chances against GSP ? is he any more difficult of a fight than any of GSPs previous opponents ?

ask yourself this, who is a better wrestler Condit or hendricks? Who's the better overall striker condit or hendricks? Yeah hendricks has that 1 knock out punch, but if he can't land it, whats plan B? hardy had a big knockout punch too, he couldn't land it and we see what happened to him.

In addition, Condit at least had a solid BJJ base to help if taken down by gsp, what does Hendricks have to fall back on if he gets taken down?

Dude what do you mean hes insignificant? As far as I know, hes the only fighter I have seen outside Chuck and GSP to be featured in a main stream commercial. He just co main a PPV and "won" (even though realistically he didn't) Of course hes going to use that as leverage for making his case for a title shot. You expect him to call out Jones because he beat Wagner Prado? :dead:

:childplease: he knows damn well he aint on dana's radar they dont even regard his triumph over lyoto as a legit win :heh: he is just throwing shyt at the wall and seeing if it sticks.If he was really serious hed call out rashad to atone for that loss.Thats a match zuffa could legitamately make after the sonnen fight

Pulling for Machida, but I'm a fan of Mousasi as well.

I got Machida by decision, but wouldn't be surprised if Mousasi takes it.

Is Mousasi staying at 185lb? :wow: Just like that, the MW division is the deepest in the UFC. Silva, Weidman, Belfort, Machida, Jacare, Rockhold, Mousasi all in the fold. And guys like Rashad Evans may still drop down
