Belcher has a fractured spine....so they're just gonna put Phil Davis/Wagner Prado rematch on the main card in Brazil @153.

Any ideas who Rashad's fighting on Dec. 29th?

Who's there for him to fight at 205?


Unless hes going to 185

 

[The ADD]

Evans looked alright against Bones, who has ripped thru everyone

Rumble just won by TKO if im not mistaken

Vanarsdale who was the head coach is gone for good or bad

Rumble ate his way out of the UFC

That camp isn't making noise

He went to be closer to his fam

I agree about Rumble,but if dude can stay put at 205, he'll be back in the UFC soon, that division is

There arent many camps that are making a lot of noise, besides Blackhouse,Jacksons(maybe) and to an extent AKA. Theyll be okay..Rashad will be back in the limelight, and Overeem too.

Just my .02

Schaub vs. Johnson, Swick vs. Brown Added to UFC on FOX 5 - MMA Fighting

Both exciting fights. Safe to say Schaub's getting KO'd again.

haha yes Schaubs getting KO'd. Unless he gets on that Greg Jackson treadmill strategy

Swick Brown is a good fight...Swick is a little too technical for Brown I think if hes healthy

Knocked out Crocop (which everyone was doing) and he got a little buzz


Hes basically a jock learning to fight on the fly

Same with Mitrione (who does have better hands)

What are the-coli lines for Belfort vs Jones?


As an oldschool MMA head, id empty out my savings account to see Belfort Knock out Jones

I saw the odds in Vegas were like -1100 Jones

Johnson is a terrible fighter. He probably has the worst ground game of any fighter in a major org. There's a reason Schaub asked for this fight. It will be an easy victory.

Can you bet Coli cash on single fights? this may have to be my first bet. lol. I 've never done it. We'll figure that out when the time comes. I'd love for Lavar to knock him out and retire him. I just don't see it. He'll be taken down quickly and subbed within the first minute if Schaub has ANY sense. The only way Lavar wins is if Schaub just fights like a moron with no sense. Which may happen but i doubt it. I hope my pick is wrong.

Not good publicity for the Jackson-Winklejohn camp

Not excusing his behavior but dude has had a real hard life if i remember correctly his mother killed one of his siblings and he was born in a mental health facility- he had a promising career

A mixed martial arts fighter allegedly beat his pregnant girlfriend so badly she miscarried, breaking her nose and giving her concussion.
Willie 'Slick' Parks, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, has now handed himself into the authorities and is being held in custody on aggravated assault charges.
Police say 28-year-old Parks beat up his girlfriend after an argument over the clothes she was wearing to a Downtown bar and the fact that men had been complimenting her appearance.

She said he then refused to let her visit a doctor for days.
She told police she remembered getting into the driver’s seat of her car and later waking up in the passenger seat with blood on her face and a large knot on her forehead.

Parks told her she had been in a car accident and her head had hit the windshield, according to the Albuquerque Journal. He then attempted to treat her swollen face, but would not let her go to hospital.
She grew 'suspicious of the explanation that Parks offered' about her injuries and the accident, which she said led Parks to change his story and tell her she was attacked by two men during a drug deal.
Police say the woman believes Parks slammed her head into the steering wheel of her car and that she had 'a bruise on the backside of her right ear, which would indicate a thumb or finger had pressed against this area with enough force to cause bleeding.'


The woman went to the hospital on August 3, where a doctor told her she had a broken nose, a concussion, and her injuries probably caused the miscarriage of her unborn child. She was in the first trimester of her pregnancy.
The couple broke up, and Parks left numerous text messages and voice mails on the woman’s cell phone, police said. A text message from August 6 read: 'you play with fire and get burned.'
A manhunt for the welterweight was launched on Thursday and he is now being held on $50,000 cash bail.
Ricky Kottenstette, general manager of the city’s prestigious Jackson-Winkeljohn’s Mixed Martial Arts gym, said Parks was a top-level wrestler and promising fighter who trained and was an instructor at the gym.
He said the gym had got rid of Parks a couple of months ago 'when he wouldn’t show up to work some days.'
Parks’ erratic behavior, according to Kottenstette, seemed to begin after he learned he would not be getting a spot on the popular FX reality TV programme The Ultimate Fighter.
