Report: Look like we won’t ever see Gina Carano compete in UFC ’cause Dana White discriminates against women…

Leave a comment

UFC’s been around for years, but the company have never had women fight in the Octagon. It has always been men. Women DO fight professionally in MMA, but for some reason, they aren’t allowed to fight in UFC. I’m pretty sure women are allowed to fight in UFC, but for some reason, Dana White himself is not allowing it to happen.

TMZ, reports.

Come on now. If women can do Strikeforce and other MMA companies, then they should be allowed to do UFC. I would love to see Gina compete in UFC. It would certainly help PPV buy rates. Why do Dana have to be so discriminatory against women? I do like UFC and all, but I don’t like Dana. He’s an asshole and a selfish business man just like, Vince McMahon.

Report: Look like Brock won’t be at Wrestlemania after all, he’ll be coach for TUF 13 instead…

Leave a comment

Well, I guess this report will definitely squash all rumors of Brock returning to WWE for Wrestlemania for good. Why? Because Dana White announced today that Brock Lesnar has been signed to coach the competitors for “TUF 13”, the reality TV show that UFC does to give kids an opportunity to become a fighter. For months now there have been rumors that Brock could return to WWE for Wrestlemania to wrestle the Undertaker, look like that definitely will not happen. Since Wrestlemania is on April 3rd, TUF 13 will start in March and the show will probably go through the Spring. This will give Brock no time for WWE.

Such a shame though ’cause Brock returning to WWE would have been interesting. Oh well, Brock would make a great TUF coach though. I can see Brock being really mean and tough to those kids on the show. Look like Junior Dos Santos will be Brock’s next opponent for a ppv fight ’cause that’s how the TUF show goes. Two UFC fighters will coach TUF then they fight each other in a ppv after the show is over with.

See the full story, here.

There’s another rumor online that WWE is trying to get former WCW star, Sting, for Wrestlemania against the Undertaker instead. Good luck to WWE on getting Sting. Sting NEVER worked for WWE. They are also trying to get Sting for the WWE Hall of Fame as well. The rumor started because Sting is no longer in contract with TNA? I doubt you’ll ever see Sting in WWE but it will be cool if they can actually get him.

Thought: Brock Lesnar still can return to WWE, just not wrestle!!!

Leave a comment

Rumours are still hitting hard on the internet that there maybe a possibility that Brock Lesnar could return to the WWE, to feud with the Undertaker. Even though Dana White says it won’t happen, the UFC’s policy is that UFC fighters can not fight or wrestle in any other company while still under contract for UFC. Still though, nobody ever said anything about Brock Lesnar performing in WWE, and not wrestle right?

WWE could bring Brock in as a guest host for RAW and Undertaker can go to RAW to feud with him there, or the WWE could make Brock Lesnar as the Anonymous RAW GM, would be interesting. Brock as a RAW GM would work.

If Brock does come back to WWE, that would bring Paul Heyman back as his manager again. I’d love to see Brock and Paul back. Brock may not be able to wrestle but they can put Brock in a different role. Maybe make Brock a special guest commentator or special guest referee, RAW GM, RAW celebrity guest, etc. Any of those things. WWE will figure out a plan for Brock, I’m sure. I’d love to see the Brock vs. Undertaker feud continue ’cause that would make an interesting feud. Brock and Taker feuded in WWE in the past before, this could be a perfect closure to that feud.

Edit to add: If Quinton “Rampage” Jackson can be a guest host on WWE RAW while still under contract for UFC, then the same can happen for Brock Lesnar, right?

Thought: Is Cain Velasquez a hero?

Leave a comment

Cain Velasquez giving Lesnar the brutal beatdown and taking the belt from him, has been the most talked about incident all week. I hear people talking about this everywhere I go. Before this fight, nobody knew who Cain Velasquez was, now he’s a big name star and hero, all because he beat up Brock. Why is Cain Velasquez respected by everyone, all of a sudden? Not only that he beat up Brock Lesnar, Cain is also the very first UFC champ who is a Mexican. A Mexican never got the title before in UFC history.

While everyone is thrilled about Cain, the only problem is that people are mistaken with that Cain only beat Brock with a TKO. Nobody ever gave Brock Lesnar a knockout yet. So, is a fighter out there is capable of knocking Brock out? I’m sure this will happen someday too, but after Brock losing to Cain, I don’t think a knockout for Brock will happen for a long time. Brock won’t let it.

At least Cain proved that Brock can be beatable.

Cool Video: Undertaker and Lesnar stare down from last night’s ppv…

Leave a comment

Well, the internet’s all over this controversial video. The Undertaker and Lesnar stare down. To those wondering about this, Lesnar and Undertaker worked together while they were in WWE. They had a storyline feud and they were in the “Hell in a Cell” match together. Brock and ‘Taker never got along too well backstage in real life, behind the scenes of wrestling. You heard ‘Taker himself say in this video, “It’s personal”. So that’s a sign they hate each other as you can see.

What does Undertaker mean when he says, “You wanna do it?” and Lesnar says nothing. Did ‘Taker just challenge Lesnar a match for WWE wrestling? That’s what it seems like, doesn’t it? A rumour going around that Lesnar and ‘Taker could be the big headliners for the next Wrestlemania.

If you read Brock’s career history with WWE, Brock left WWE ’cause him and Vince weren’t on the same page. Brock sued WWE over some contract disagreement or something. I don’t think Brock will go back to the WWE for this reason, but who knows, maybe Vince McMahon and Brock will negotiate for him to return. You know how Vince loves more publicity with WWE and Brock is very controversial and popular. Vince “could” possibly welcome Brock back, but I don’t think it’ll happen.

I see this Undertaker and Brock public feud will escalate and get worse in the future. Maybe Undertaker could fight in UFC for one fight against Brock, if it’s all up to Dana, that might happen as well. These two guys will definitely be in the ring again somehow, whether’s it’s either WWE or UFC, either way. We’ll wait and see what happens.

Report: Sly Stallone teasing plans on doing a film about MMA/UFC???

Leave a comment

Sylvester Stallone took to his twitter, teasing a new project that he is planning on doing a movie about MMA/UFC caged fighting. As you can see, Sly tweeted:

“The New Rocky… Update it with a young man with modern problems ,but he would not be called Rocky, just the philosophy would be used.”

“I would not be in it… It is an modern extension of the heart and philosophy . MMA too.”

“Yet a great MMA film should be done at once … Love must be the central theme like my buddy Rocky experienced. Pleasure/pain= LIFE”

Hmmmm, so what Sly is saying is that he is planning an MMA/UFC film that would be more like Rocky? I like the idea, a lot! As long as it won’t star Channing Tatum as the leading role, we don’t need another version of that aweful movie, “Fighting”.

It won’t surprise me that Sly will be eyeing, Randy Couture, as the leading role for this flick. Maybe Brock Lesnar would get a small role for it, as an opponent. I’m sure Dana White would get a cameo. There’s been fictional movies based on all sports but not many on caged fighting. If this will be Sly’s next movie after “The Expendables”, I’m all for it. The MMA/UFC community deserves their own film and it needs to be done by Sly. A Rocky styled MMA movie is a creative idea!

UFC 118 thoughts…

Leave a comment

Yep, so I watched UFC 118 last night. I knew Randy Couture was going to destroy James Toney with no problems. Knew it was going to happen from the very beginning. Randy made it look too easy to beat James Toney down. Randy knew James Toney’s boxing skills. Randy knew how hard Toney punches. Randy did a great job to avoid Toney’s punches. I knew Randy would do his best to avoid them. Randy gave Toney his usual chokehold move that Randy always does.

Hopefully, this will be James Toneys only fight. He needs to get his fat ass back to boxing where he belongs. James doens’t belong in UFC, he can’t handle it. James will get killed if he continues to stay in UFC, so hopefully Dana won’t let him continue on. Watch last night’s fight here.

The other fights were okay, but the best fight of the night was “Florian vs. Maynard”. Although Kenny Florian tried his best to win in his hometown, I was impressed with him last night.

Thought: James Toney vs. Randy Couture prediction…

Leave a comment

I have been following this James Toney vs. Randy Couture feud online, and I must say, it’s even funnier than the Brock Lesnar vs. Shane Carwin feud. Boxing legend James Toney has been signed to UFC to fight Randy Couture. James Toney has been obsessed with wanting to fight Randy Couture for a long time and Dana White gave him what he wanted. James Toney is a BOXER. Not a mixed martial artist. I repeat, a BOXER. Randy Couture has YEARS of mixed martial arts experience.

My opinion, that I think James Toney is challenging the wrong guy. Randy Couture would fucking destroy Toney. Toney might be able to throw a few hard punches at Randy, yes, but the fight will be over quickly once Toney gets a takedown by Couture, and Couture will give him the chokehold to end the fight. Randy Couture is well known for the chokehold. Randy Couture may seem like a nice, friendly and down to earth guy, but in reality, Randy is a monster when it comes to fighting.

Toney thinks he will beat Couture, which is hilarious. Toney thinks he will be successful in UFC. That’s how boxers are, delusional and they have huge egos as well. Why did Dana White agree to sign Toney even if Toney don’t have much MMA experience? I bet the only reason is to help PPV buyrates. Dana didn’t sign Toney because Toney is talented.

So of course, my money on who to win this fight is Randy Couture. Randy is a favorite fighter of mine and looking forward to seeing him fight again.

UFC 118 looks like a great card. I’m looking forward to seeing Edgar vs. Penn again too.

Thought: Brock Lesnar autobiography????

Leave a comment

 

So at the press conference after the UFC 116 fight, Brock Lesnar revealed he’s writing an autobiography with the help of Paul Heyman and a ghost writer. I’m certainly am interested in buying it and will read it when ever it gets on the bookshelves at bookstores everywhere. It’s going to be an interesting book I think. He might go everything in detail about his life. Isn’t that the point of an autobiography? I’m interested in reading what his childhood was like all the way up to now.

When the book comes out though, he might have to take another break from UFC. Why? One word: Promotion. He’ll take more time off from UFC to promote the book on TV, do autograph signing book tours, and things like that.

I have a feeling that his book will have things that Vince McMahon won’t want to read ’cause Brock might say a lot of nasty things about him, and Brock might reveal shocking stuff on why him and Vince don’t get along. Plus, I’m sure he’ll talk about how he met with Sable (Rena Mero), they obviously met while working in WWE together, but Brock might explain more stuff about their relationship in the book. Of course, Brock will talk about the UFC in the book as well.

It sure will be a controversial book ’cause Brock is a controversial guy.

Cool Video: Brock Lesnar speaks on last night’s PPV…

Leave a comment

Here is Brock Lesnar talking about last night’s PPV. Notice his face all beat up? He had quite a beating from Shane. Brock wasn’t arrogant and cocky in this press conference interview here at all. Brock was nice, professional, and even brought out some laughs. He talks about the WWE guys being there to support him, his friendship with Paul Heyman and of course, talks about his health, and all.

You just wonder what he would be like if Brock doesn’t have that belt. Do you think he would be happy then? He would probably go back to being an asshole if he didn’t have that belt and I meant that as a compliment, not an attack. I think Brock would retire if he ever lost the belt. After all, that’s how he retired from WWE ’cause he was WWE Champion three times and after he lost it the third time, Brock quit the  WWE immediately. He might do the same to UFC if someone ever took the belt from him.

Kev

Edit to add: Also, notice how Brock won’t admit how scared he was during that punch out by Shane? Instead, he talks himself around it by saying there are other rounds for him to win in.
