I for one would like to point out how people shit all over Wanderlei Silva for his loss to Henderson and then in a very similar situation and fashion Matt Serra defeated GSP….

Don’t really see anyone bashing UFC, GSP etc. in the same way…

Swick talked about during a Sherdog interview about going down to 170 lbs. Would be a good move for him, and only make the Welterweight Division even stronger.

Standard Pride practice to include fighters in promotion that aren’t going to actually fight in the event. How many fighters were slotted for Pride34 that didn’t end up on the card? 5 or 6?

More for today, here’s an image of the flyer DSE distributed for the LW Grand Prix:

Shows Diego Sanchez and Matt Hughes — not sure where that’s coming from at this point, though.

Interesting point, ‘Rollo the Cat’ – but I don’t see Fedor’s career being finished from one fluke loss in his near-perfect career.

Lindland is waaaay over his head in that fight IMO, and although internet MMA hardcores love him in the strange, inexplicable way that internet puroresu hardcores love Akira Taue, I don’t see him pulling off what would be the upset of the century.

I imagine with the way things have gone, Zuffa won’t make Fedor an offer until after the Lindland fight. If lightning strikes again, Fedor’s stock will drop faster than the IFL’s.

Tito/Rashad pull-apart from the pay per view.
Watch for the look on Forrest’s face…

How much do you think the UFC would offer Fedor?

Zach — next week, can we get a headline reading: “Bif Naked: ‘Fedor is 2 Sweeeeeeet!’ ”

Also, what’s with those ridiculous stories by Christopher Costigan? If ever there was a propaganda website, it’s gambling911.com. Every article is a Calvin Ayre puff piece: “According to legendary billionaire playboy, philanthropist, and 1984-2006 People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive Calvin Ayre, …”

Now that someone else has mentioned the MMA Madness registration…

Zach, I don’t know if this is important to you or not, but you might want to point out to your contacts at MMA Madness that mandatory registration is the easiest way to isolate yourself into irrelevancy.
