DC is good. has some charisma too. Cruz is probably more technical but hes kind of bland in a commentator roll, way better as an annalist.


What needs to stop is all the people who seem to think a fighter can come in and take over Goldbergs spot. Rogans spot yes, not Goldbergs.

GSP vs. Woodley or Bisping for his first fight back. Bisping would be the money fight for sure but then what. Keep fighting at Middleweight or go back to 170 and try to be king again?

Berz out.

Verdasco 02-15-2017 07:16 PM

how the fuck does GSP deserve a fight vs a title holder when he shouldnt even of won his last bout vs hendricks?

and dont give me that $$$ thing, he needs to fight yomero or jacare

and woodley? LOL ya right, back of the line buddy

love GSP but this is ridiculous

RRxtar 02-15-2017 10:30 PM

regardless of your feelings, he won the fight against hendricks on points, according to the existing rules of MMA. so he stepped away from the sport as the champ after 11 title fight wins in a row. he also stepped away as one of the top 2 PPV draws of all time, at the time, and is still in the top 4 or 5.

so ya, he does deserve a title fight at WW because it hits the rare effect of both making sense per mma-is-a-sport logic, as well as for the business sense of selling ppvs.

at MW, i agree he probably shouldn't get a title shot unless they somehow build a rivalry between bisping and gsp. but it sounds like bisping is going to fight romero in may

Verdasco 02-15-2017 11:03 PM

holy fuck if that happens, romero will knock the fuck out of GSP, guy cant stand punches


this is bad ... and is yomero really clean? looks like a that pins

Ch28 02-16-2017 03:14 AM

GSP is the WW GOAT and deserves to get the title shot since he never lost the belt.

MarkyMark 02-16-2017 06:23 AM

lol if anyone in the history of MMA deserves a title shot upon return it's GSP.

SkinnyPupp 02-16-2017 07:25 AM

I can't believe anyone is questioning it, unless they only started watching UFC after he retired already

Berzerker 02-16-2017 10:06 AM

ALSO worth noting Hendricks was juicing and after that loss and USADA he turned to complete shit and basically fell off the map. This was one of the reasons GSP "retired" because of the lackluster testing going on. If you remember GSP was campaigning for USADA testing for both of them before that fight but it never happened. Let GSP fight USADA Pigrig and you will see a very different fight. So if the ONLY reason you say he doesn't deserve a title shot is because he "lost" (won by decision) that fight..... then you need to reassess your thinking.

Berz out.

RRxtar 02-16-2017 05:26 PM

actually i would be ok with GSP vs Hendricks rematch for his return fight. That fight actually makes sense because it would be "the rematch 4 years in the making after the controvertial first fight" and it would be a good warm up fight for GSP since he should walk thru Hendricks fairly easily, but the promo could show a bunch of clips of how close the first fight was to make it sell able.

Berzerker 02-16-2017 05:32 PM

Maybe if Pigrig has a good showing in a his next fight you could sell that otherwise it's just a wasted fight on his deal (if they have a specific number of fights in his contract)

Berz out.

He did well against someone that was so obviously juicing (completely fell off the map after USADA) so imagine if GSP was on the juice as well.

Ch28 02-17-2017 03:12 PM

It's official.

Dana confirms GSP signing.

MarkyMark 02-17-2017 03:27 PM

Fuck it, just do GSP McGregor now before either loses and messes it all up.

Berzerker 02-17-2017 04:06 PM

Mac is focused on that Mayweather money though..

Berz out.

MarkyMark 02-17-2017 04:34 PM

Yeah well if it goes anything like the wait for Mayweather/Pacquiao then he's gonna need something to do in the meantime.

Conor vs GSP is the biggest payday there is once the Mayweather fight falls through.

you are not a MMA viewer right now if you suggest that

he is on a 3 fight losing streak and is on the verge of getting cut within 1 or 2 bouts

GLOW 02-18-2017 09:22 AM

maybe he enjoys watching pigg rigg getting smashed LUL FeelsGoodMan

SkinnyPupp 02-18-2017 09:40 AM

Speaking of Pigg Rigg, he just made weight


Berzerker 02-18-2017 10:34 AM

Fucking guy. Barely makes middleweight now. He did a Q&A on FB and was spitting into a cup the whole time. I watched for about 15 seconds and was already sick of his shit.

Berz out.

RRxtar 02-18-2017 03:28 PM

Fedora vs meat head cancelled

SkinnyPupp 02-18-2017 06:56 PM

Kidney stones DansGame

Anyway 38716203425011c7175613ef7675e00ded35cc92

Bellator has a better production and play by play team than UFC, better crowd mic and everything

GLOW 02-19-2017 09:50 AM

looks great when ferg or spider does it...but when dancing in ring goes wrong.


SkinnyPupp 02-19-2017 08:58 PM

It's crazy how bad Travis Browne has gotten in the last couple years

Also Todd Grisham is going to be one of the best play by play guys in MMA ever, mark my words

The_Situation 02-19-2017 09:00 PM

the black beastttttt. that stoppage though :heckno:
