Yeah, that's what I took for the reason for her firing. Stupid on her part. Bring back Edith
. I'm probably one of the few that actually liked her.

I remember her and Natasha Wicks in an interview accusing Koscheck of faking eyepokes in his fight with Johnson.
Arianny must be bad luck for other ring girls. 4 of them have been fired since she's been hired.

It's probably dumb to fire her, but I just saw girl on girl pics where she's munching box, so I can understand UFC's decision.Originally Posted by shogun

Brittney Palmer's Playboy spread leaked.
On a related note, Chandella "Mariah Ashton" Powell has supposedly been fired for some of her past modeling jobs.
The hypocrisy of this is pretty funny to me, but hey, that's the UFC for you.
Brittney looking good. Playboy is so boring though. They almost never feature the snatch area.
I wish it was switched and Brittney did the type of pics Chandella did. So the UFC fired her because she secretly posed for nude pics also except hers showed her chocolate cookie? There's not really a difference between playboy and solo pics on an adult site. All that stuff fits into the interests of their demographic anyway.

It's a no brainer to make all main events 5 rounders. Get the contenders ready for those championship rounds.

I thought all main events being 5 rounds started with the Henderson - Shogun fight. They've had the green light to make main events 5 rounds for over a year but they're on and off in using it.

I thought the five round main events started with Munoz vs Leben.

Yeah, you're right. My memory sucks. I remember the commission in Vegas giving them the green light to make meaningful main events 5 rounds 1 1/2 - 2 years ago. Maybe that's why the fight was only 3 rounds since it was in Nebraska.

When they made the decision to make all main events 5 rounds, that was before the FOX deal. They established that FX and Fuel main events would be 3 rounds while the FOX and PPV cards would remain 5 rounds. Don't mean to sound like a ****, but I don't understand why so many people are confused about this.
With that said, there will still be 3 round main events as long as the UFC continues to expand into other markets. The next Fuel event will be in Sweden and their athletic commission doesn't allow 5 rounders. I guess I can understand some of the confusion when it comes to different athletic commission policies and things like that.
The problem I have with the automatic 5 round thing is that fighters get injured and the main event can change at anytime. In certain situations, I don't think it's fair to bump a fighter who wasn't training for a 5 round fight up to a main event on short notice. That could be a huge disadvantage. At one point, the first 5 rounder was suppose to be Evans/Davis @ 133 but they scrapped that and Davis ended up getting injured anyways. If they can't be consistent then I don't think they should force 5 rounders.
There's a lot of fights we'd all love to see go 5 rounds, but eventually there will be a 5 round HW fight that will go the distance where both guys gas out after the first round and everyone will %%*$# about it. Not to mention, a lot of guys will fight differently (and safer) knowing they have to conserve energy for an extra 2 rounds. I don't want to see any of that.
Edith looks like a past-her-prime pornstar. Not that Brittney and Arianny are natural or anything, but Edith was incredibly fake and plastic-looking.
I liked Logan the best. I'd love to suck on her deformed pinky.

I haven't seen 'em, but there's supposedly some videos floating around, as well. I don't see the big deal, especially considering her job is to walk around in a bikini and look pretty, but I'm sure this all comes back to the FOX deal and them trying to clean up their image.Originally Posted by 4wrestling

They shouldn't. A lot of favorable match-ups for them. Hioki, Fukuda, Okami, Kid and Mizugaki should all win. Don't know anything about this Tamura kid, but I'm sure he'll probably get choked out by ZTQ. It's not looking good for Akiyama neither, but that's about it.
In other news, UFC decided not to fire Powell. In retrospect, I don't know why I cared so much, but good for her.

Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson said in an interview that his Flyweight fight against former Taichi Palace Champ Ian McCall will have a fourth round "sudden victory" round if by the end of the 3 rounds, it comes down to a draw. Interested to see if this will hold for other important fights that go to a draw.

I feel bad for Japanese MMA. It was like the fall of Rome. The fact that the UFC had to consciously make easier matchups for some of the biggest Japanese fighters is sad.Originally Posted by APH

Good for Chandella. We've seen all the UFC girls naked now. Wonder what Rachelle is up to now. She was amazing in her prime

Rampage missed weight by 6 lbs, weighing in at 211. Fight will go on. He will forfeit 20% of his purse.
