That's the entire basis of his claim that the contract is void. His contract includes sponsorships, but they aren't letting him do it anymore.

It really depends on how it's worded, and what the courts decide. My guess is he's going to deal with that shit later, and get some fights somewhere before he's past his prime (and btw there's no indication that he's past his prime, I don't know why anyone would assume that)

To be fair, in his last couple of fights he didn't look nearly as dominate as before. He took a lot more damage then he used to. Add in the fact that he's had a couple more knee surgeries since then and he's 35 years old, it's safe to say he's probably lost a step from his prime.

Not saying he still couldn't make a run for the belt but I doubt it would be the dominant victories we used to see where he could take anyone down at will and control the fight the whole time.

The game changed. People got better. Fighters had tapes to watch and trained specifically for GSP when they fought him. Plus You had a juiced up Hendricks. Until we see him fight again it's hard to say. Let's see Big Sloth fight him now with USADA testing.

Berz out.

pig rigg will not be relevant in the USADA era.

GSP still got that jab doe

Toronto office had 10 people working there and only 2 people remain after today. They also fired Tom Wright (UFC Canada Director). He did a lot of behind the scenes work to get MMA legalized in Canada. He even squared off Cormier and Johnson yesterday.

It's definitely up for debate, but in any sport how many guys are at the top of their game in their mid 30s after knee surgeries VS guys who are in their prime in their late 20s-early 30s with no surgeries?

If he is in his prime right now then it's a shame that it's being wasted with lawyers and all this other bullshit instead of fighting.

Big fan of both fighters. Not sure who to cheer for

SkinnyPupp 10-23-2016 12:50 AM

I'll be on Cruz's side. I hope we get to see him mess with Aldo's mind like he does with most of his opponents.

BTW this is apparently what the new owners are going to weigh heavily on as much as they can at first - superfights

"That ginger-headed fuck is retarded," Mousasi said on Monday's edition of the MMA Hour. "In the interview I mentioned, they were talking about respect or whatever, and then he texted me on Twitter. He messaged me, and I said, ‘what are you going to do with your 50kg?' And then he was, I don't know, he was philosophical or whatever the fuck he was writing, he was like, ‘a knife is lighter than a pound, it can cut from ear-to-ear,' whatever the fuck he was writing.

"That guy is a bum. He's a 50kg guy, what the fuck is he going to do? I bet if he's face-to-face, he's not going to say that. But you know, Twitter gives some people courage."

"I don't know what he was mentioning with the knife," Mousasi added. "... I don't have it with me now, but he put a lot of thought into his message. The guy has a lot of time, I don't know.

"I said ‘say it to my face,' but I bet he's not going to do that."

Ch28 10-23-2016 07:17 PM

The new Mousasi is so much more entertaining. He knows that being a filtered and respectful fighter isn't what gets you paid.

UFC 207 looking pretty stacked

Dominick Cruz vs Cody Garbrandt
Ronda Rousey vs Amanda Nunes
Cain Valasquez vs Fabricio Werdum

its so weird looking at a fights gameplan and saying "if cody can hit him, he wins" and "if cruz can avoid getting hit for 25 minutes, he wins"

like, most people would say that cruz couldn't actually beat cody in a FIGHT, but he can beat him in an MMA match with a time limit. cody can spend the entire fight not really in any danger, and lose. cruz will spend the entire fight in a ton of danger, and win
