RE: UFC - 199lives - 16-01-2012 23:50 well i'd like to claim that was all skill, but i guessed Prater and he won by DQ (i read the ufc paid both fighters win bonuses) so just a bit of luck involved Aldo's celebration was one of the best bits just leg it out into the crowd and nearly cause a riot one of the best bits from Dana Whites video blog is it shows the moment they tell Vitor, Johnson wasn't making weight. Lorenzo says he was close to making weight but the doctor told him he needed to rehydrate and recover after he started to lose feeling in his legs which is why he was so far off the limit. Well the ufc seem to have gotten into a heavyweight fight of there own. ESPN aired a programme in American and i haven't seen it but it was apparently pretty negative about the ufc mainly aimed at fighter pay. Dana white posted there reply on the mma forum i use and they also posted the full 40 minute lorenzo fertitta interview on youtube . Early last week, ESPN released a preview of an upcoming Outside the Lines segment, that charged the UFC pay structure was unfair. This was followed by an in-depth article by Josh Gross that criticized the UFC along similar lines. The piece centered on interviews with the billionaire majority owner of the UFC Lorenzo Fertitta, and with UFC Hall of Famer Ken Shamrock, who in a stupeyingly ironic turn, recently failed in a law suit to get a UFC contract and was ordered to pay the company $175,000 in court costs. The man ESPN put front and center to criticise UFC contracts actually sued to try to get one. Gross has a long and contentious history with the organization, and UFC President Dana White responded by vowing to bring unseen footage from the Fertitta interview to the fans. RE: UFC - mitchell - 17-01-2012 20:07 Here's the full 47 minute video. I'm surprised they weren't doing this already. Zuffa Institutes Pre-Contract Drug Screening for Performance Enhancers Zuffa in coordination with the UFC and Strikeforce have started a new policy of screening all incoming athletes for performance enhancing drugs prior to signing with one of the organizations. The move is unprecedented in mixed martial arts, and Zuffa has committed to trying to weed out any athletes who are coming to their promotions under the influence of performance enhancing drugs. “We’re committed to the health and safety of our athletes and we take it very seriously,” UFC Chairman and CEO Lorenzo Fertitta said. “We already work closely with athletic commissions to protect our athletes and now we’re taking it one step further. We’re going to test any potential UFC or Strikeforce fighter before finalizing their contract. This shows that we don’t want performance-enhancing drugs in our sport.” All potential athletes who are set to be signed under contract to the UFC or Strikeforce will be required to complete the drug screening procedures. The current athletes already on the roster will continue to be tested under the guidelines of the promotion and the athletic commissions that oversee the sport in each particular state or country. “The health and safety of our athletes is our top priority,” UFC President Dana White said. “We’ve seen the issues performance-enhancing drugs have caused in other sports and we’re going to do everything we can to keep them out of the UFC and Strikeforce. Our athletes are already held to the highest testing standards in all sports by athletic commissions. Our new testing policy for performance-enhancing drugs only further shows how important it is to us to have our athletes competing on a level playing field.” The news about the new drug screening policy comes at a particularly poignant time in MMA after two top fighters recently tested positive for steroids. Strikeforce women’s featherweight champion Cris ‘Cyborg’ Santos recently tested positive after her fight in Dec 2011 and was suspended for one year by the California State Athletic Commission. Earlier on the day on Tuesday, former Strikeforce champion Muhammed ‘King Mo’ Lawal also tested positive for steroids as revealed by the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Zuffa’s move is aimed at cutting down any incident of a fighter coming into the organization that could test positive for performance enhancing drugs. RE: UFC - TDK2008 - 18-01-2012 05:25 Big news: Quote:Less than two weeks removed from the event, the UFC on Fox 2 fight card has undergone a major change. Chael Sonnen will now face Michael Bisping in the co-main event with Mark Munoz falling off the card due to injury. --- It really should've been Chael Sonnen/Michael Bisping to begin with. I want Chael Sonnen to win because I want to see Anderson Silva/Chael Sonnen II. RE: UFC - groundnpound - 18-01-2012 15:30 Great opportunity for Bisping. Would love him to win, but if there's one guy i can't imagine him beating it's Chael Sonnen? Could be a repeat of the Sonnen/Stann fight.... Anything can happen though? Looks like Velasquez vs Bigfoot Silva isn't happening... Read a bit about it earlier. I think it could be Velasquez vs Carwin in the spring....You heard it here first RE: UFC - 199lives - 18-01-2012 20:07 Melvin Guillard v Jim Miller Miller dec Duane Ludwig v Josh Neer Neer tko Mike Easton v Jared Papazian Easton sub Pat Barry v Christian Morecraft Barry tko RE: UFC - Ro1982 - 18-01-2012 23:36 Guillard v Miller Miller sub Ludwig v Neer Neer tko Easton v Papazian Easton tko Barry v Morecraft Barry ko RE: UFC - TDK2008 - 19-01-2012 11:29 Melvin Guillard v Jim Miller Miller Sub Duane Ludwig v Josh Neer Neer Dec Mike Easton v Jared Papazian Easton Sub Pat Barry v Christian Morecraft Barry Dec RE: UFC - mitchell - 19-01-2012 21:01 Melvin Guillard v Jim Miller - Miller Submission Duane Ludwig v Josh Neer - Neer TKO Mike Easton v Jared Papazian - Easton Decision Pat Barry v Christian Morecraft - Morecraft TKO RE: UFC - groundnpound - 20-01-2012 17:54 UFC on FX: Guillard vs. Miller Live on ESPN at 2am UFC Openweight Predictions Grand Prix Melvin Guillard v Jim Miller - Guillard TKO Duane Ludwig v Josh Neer - Ludwig Decision Mike Easton v Jared Papazian - Papazian Decision Pat Barry v Christian Morecraft - Morecraft Sub TUF: Australia vs. U.K. This year. http://mmajunkie.com/news/27045/ufc-targeting-tuf-australia-vs-u-k-for-2012-eyes-brisbane-for-finale.mma RE: UFC - TDK2008 - 21-01-2012 08:25 *UFC ON FX 1 SPOILERS FOLLOW* Really good show.
