The MMA Thread: DON'T ASK 4 STREAMS & NO GIFS- UFC 300 ON NOW

Good stuff Phillyz

GSP being on stuff is to be expected in my mind

In the end I honestly don't hold it against anyone, Anderson included. TRT is somewhat of a different animal because it used to be allowed if reported. idk that just seems off lol 
 
Not sure if anyone is looking for a podcast but it's called of course your welcome with chael sonnen is hysterical well as long as you can stand the man
 
I used to listen to mmahpur with ariel helwani before, not recently though.
 
i have the following podcasts on rotation each week: MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, Chael Sonnen's You're Welcome, Joe Rogan Experience, and The Fighter and The Kid (Brendan Schaub and Bryan Callen).
 
I tried with some of those in the past, the show I'm faithful to is Ariel's MMA Hour. Doesn't get better than Ariel IMO. Chael and Rogan can be a bit much and Schaub and the other guy are decent

I enjoy Ariel though sometimes he can be a bit too optimistic, I also enjoy the other guy he has on there as well I think his name is New York Rick

Yeah man. I respect the guy and everything he accomplished over the years, but the welterweight division is way more exciting when he's not involved :lol:. Outside of Condit getting him in trouble with that high kick, I can't remember the last time I was actually excited during a gsp fight.

You may not be upset but UFC and a lot of Canadians are upset they can't watch him anymore. A GSP card was guaranteed at least 500k ppv buys and without him UFC is struggling with the Canadian market. Thats why they asking him to return and fight at 186 in Montreal but he said no.

But I'd like to see him come back. Not because I miss his point fighting, but because I think his fights now would be competitive unlike in the past. I think most in the top 5 could hang with/give him trouble.

I love and respect GSP as an athlete and a fighter. He also seems like a real nice guy. I just wasn't excited to watch him fight towards the end of his career.

I WAS excited in the sense to see if he'd actually lose. That's what I was more watching him for towards the end.

I disagree with you in that I would love to see him in there today to see if these other guys could ACTUALLY beat GSP. That would be amazing to watch.

I didn't keep score in his last fight but people were saying he should've lost by decision. I stopped being a fan of his years ago. He was too good and skilled to have such boring fights especially considering how good his earlier fights were to watch.
 
Idk if its a Greg Jackson thing cause GSP was doing the same thing after he and Jackson stopped working together.

Would like to see him against Lawler tho seeing as how he already "beat" Hendricks. I doubt any of those other guys could do more than just hang in there with him.

Would be dope to see him come back and get his title again

Eh, that's the easy excuse people have used a lot. It may be true but he also coaches jones, cerrone, and sanchez. A fighter will fight how he wants to fight.

Greg Jackson definitely encourages it though. He's a great coach and all but he thinks it through (like when he told Jones to go shake Machida's hand for fans)
 
GSP and Silva need to fight. The UFC needs to make that happen. I think everyone can go home happy if and when that happens.

This is the closest we'll get to seeing Silva vs GSP. Who knows what's going on with Silva's test or if UFC will pay the commission to make it go away. And Firas Zahabi doesn't think he's gonna fight in 2015.

Jon Fitch just failed his drug test for his fight against Palhares. 
 
Fighters getting booked left and right, black eye for the sport, hope UFC can get their **** together. If I was Reebok i would second guess the uniform deal.
