What was the context of that comment? I haven't seen many black dudes with blue eyes, a blond crew cut, and giant ugly scimitars tattooed on their chests.

I guess you could compare him to Bob Sapp, as in Brock would be heavier (but not as big as Sapp) if not held to the current UFC 265 pound limit. But then again, Brock actually has talent. And I say that as someone who wants Sapp to succeed.
 
Maybe he can; maybe he can't. I'd give Franklin a 75% shot of winning, most likely on a decision. Franklin could get the KO, but he would need to keep a close proximity to Chuck in the standup game, or else he'd be at a pretty big risk for a knockout blow from Chuck.
 
Here's the context

Lesnar's been notoriously touchy when reporters ask him about steroids. Last August he sat down with an ESPN camera crew. “My interview was over,” he says. “And then all of a sudden, ‘Oh, wait, we’ve got a few more questions.’” He shakes his head. “Then they ask me about steroids.” He’s indignant on this most delicate of subjects. “I’ve never in my life tested positive for steroids. What do you want me to say?” He got up, thanked the crew for their time, and walked out.

“Doing that raised more questions than it answered,” I note.

He talks quickly and emphatically. “I bet you I’ve taken over 60 steroid tests. In college I had 15 random drug tests in two years. I’ve taken drug tests for the NFL, the WWE, the UFC. I must be pretty good at masking steroids. God gave me this body: Are you jealous of it or what? Give me a break. I got the genetics of—not to get into racism or anything—but I’m built like a black man. Would you say so?”

here's the full piece http://www.maxim.com/sports/articles/79275/brock-lesnar-.html?p=1
 
Sapp vs Lashley should be a entertaining match....prob not your most skilled or tech match but entertaining. Interesting to see how Lashley handles someone bigger than himself.
 
Sapp vs. Lashley tonight. I'm really interested to see how this goes. Sapp is coming in a lot bigger than Lashley and with a lot more experience.
 
This PPV presentation is pretty subpar. It looks like the arena is in a armory hall. Would this league normally have ppv? or it only able to charge because of Lashley vs Sapp?
 
Gilbert Yvel versus Pedro Rizzo was the best fight. The knockout was crazy. If only he did that to Barnett... Lashley and Sapp fight was terrible.
 
[quote name='Collectordragon']I'd prefer a Diaz vs Lawler rematch.[/QUOTE]


Agreed. Although maybe these two will get into another hospital room brawl post-fight again like they did last time they fought.:lol:
 
[quote name='One4Deuce']Nick Diaz vs. Joe Riggs rematch planned for Strikeforce... anyone else excited about this fight?[/QUOTE]

This could be a pretty interesting fight. Riggs looked really good against Baroni and Nick Diaz has been looking like he is almost unbeatable recently.
 
I read at 411mania. that Rampage was being considered for the role of B.A. Baracus in the upcoming A-Team movie. That'd just be awesome.

[quote name='lokizz']so can somebody explain this?


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V56vKg7f9Cc[/QUOTE]

Jimmy Traina: What did you think when Rampage started, um, getting frisky? Did you think it was funny or did you take offense?

Nichols: At first I was just shocked when he grabbed me, and all I could think was, "Oh my gosh, what is he doing?!" Then I tried to play along a little bit because I knew he was trying to be funny, but after about the first 5-10 seconds, it was just plain awkward. I kept thinking, "What should I do? Knee him? Keep going?" So I decided to keep asking questions, assuming he would stop if I did that. So I asked another question, and he kept going. I asked ANOTHER question, and he kept going. At this point I was just freaking out, but still trying to be a professional and ask all the questions I was assigned to ask, and this has been interpreted by some viewers as me liking it and egging him on. This was definitely not the case. I was hired to do a job, which was to interview Rampage, so I decided to put up with his shenanigans and finish the interview.

Traina: Has he apologized since then?

Nichols: No, not at all. He was very, very pleased with himself.

glad to know she was creeped out as i was.they ought to fine him or something beause that was way out of line. you see that shit and you cant help but hear that oz theme song and expect the worse.
 
I'm hoping for wins tonight by Brock, GSP, and Bisping. Those three are probably my favorite competitors in their respective weight classes.
 
They have been shutting all the streams down so fast the last couple of months that I'm not sure it is even going to be worth trying to hunt one down tonight. I'm strongly considering actually paying for it for once.

Lesnar AND Bisping.......holy shit I think I just threw up in my mouth. I hope they both get their faces rearranged.
 
lesnar, alves, and hendo all the way. I also hope that its the last fight for coleman...win or lose. I like him but just like chuck, enough is enough

Yeah if there was ever a time to pay, this one would be it.
 
I set up a proxy to trick the UFC website into thinking I'm from the UK so hopefully I'll be able to watch UFC 100 tonight.

I don't know how it will do with streaming video traffic.
 
I tried using a proxy for the USA vs Brazil match a few weeks ago (Canadian sports was streaming it) and it didn't work. But I know absolutely next to nothing about setting up a proxy other than finding a website to redirect you to the site you are trying access.
 
Straight from Dana White's twitter account: UFC 100 will air live, free of charge, on SKY Channel 433 as well as on UFC.com

Lesnar, I've been a fan of since WWE. Bisping, I've always enjoyed watching and Henderson (hope he doesn't read this if I ever make the 30 minute trip to Team Quest) bores the shit out of me.

[quote name='joe2187']Live Stream here at UFC.com. :cool:

http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=misc.complayer[/QUOTE]

Yeah, if you pay.
 
Last I heard, Hendo only sticks to the Deals forum. You should be safe, Bud Bundy.

---
I'm gonna go with Mir, GSP, and Bisping tonight. Mir is lookin' good. :cool:
 
My picks for tonight.. Brock, GSP, Bisping
And for streams, I'd say Sopcast will be your best bet. Only way you'll be able to see it on JTV is if someone hides it in the wrong section and maybe it won't get pulled.

LOL... nice.

I like Mir, too, and he did look ripped at the weigh-in. But I was a fan of Lesnar before I ever heard the name Frank Mir, and I hope Brock comes out on top tonight.

Now I have to figure out Sopcast and how to find what I'm looking for.
 
I'm guessing Lesnar wins, and I really haven't seen GSP so no clue on that fight. But, I pray Henderson turns Bisping into a bloody pulp. Humility should be rewarded and appreciated. Bisping has the annoying mentality of a 5th grade cool kid.


n/m found it.

I looked at the listings and there's nothing to do with UFC or MMA in general. It may be because I'm logged in anonymously, but when I click the link to create an account, it gives me a 404 error.

EDIT: Found at another forum: sop://broker.sopcast.com:3912/24267

Quality kind of sucks.
 
Do I have to download something else to watch that?

EDIT: Downloaded, but the channel is not on the list and there's no way to input the number.
 
ya its a different program just like sopcast and tvant. Though in retrospect the quality isn't that spectacular. Its a little blocky. The program is TVU aaaand. it went down. damnit.
 
Damn UFC, blocking all us mooches from watching for free, I wouldnt pay for it anyway and will probably watch it tomarrow on mmascraps if I don't have any better luck finding a good stream. I will put a link up as soon as I find one, PLEASE do the same if you find a good one.
