Nothing like being old and slow in a fight geared towards younger, fresher fighters. UFC doesn't seem to have the same love for over 30 fighters that it once did.

Actually, it strikes me as hilarious how Dana White seems obsessed with using Tito Ortiz to feed to someone. Ignoring his fights with Ken Shamrock, they've set him up with Patrick Cote, Chuck Liddell (twice), Forest Griffin, and now Rashad Evans, and I'm pretty sure when Dana had these fights planned he was thinking about how he was going to make his next star at Tito's expense. Besides floundering against Chuck, Tito isn't playing ball. We'll see how he does with Rashad, who has improved leaps and bounds from his first TUF fight.

Tito has an ego as big ego, like Shamrock and the rest of the 'superstars'. Problem is, Dana White has a bigger one. Mind you, I never liked Tito - not that I loved Ken, but c'mon...

I was really referring more to Lesnars debut MMA fight. I guess you guys didn't hear about that. it was just a few weeks ago around the same time Rampage knocked out Liddell

He was supposed to fight some huge like 7 ft Korean dude but had to fight someone else and pretty much just pounded him into submission.

Here's the full clip: http://youtube.com/watch?v=RZrl0DgQuiM

And the only reason I knew about the fight was because I saw this on TV while I was at the drs office maybe a month back: http://youtube.com/watch?v=R8LLnNZf9pE


I only bring him up because I really think he is an amazing athlete with a real strong background in wrestling (by this I mean amateur... I'm not sure how much his pro wrestling career contributes to his actual fighting ability) and has amazing strength and speed. I really think he could be a strong MMA contender and hope he fights again soon.

He has the nickname of the Vanilla Gorilla, actually.

Again I don't really follow Japan at all, so I missed this completely.
