The Diaz brothers will always be for just straight up not giving a ****, ever

But it's a matter of time before one of them gets locked up for some doing some dumb **** in the streets

 

[dman14]

so dana took a shot at wrasslin when someone asked why his PPVs werent 9.99?

in my opinion, last night's event was definitely not worth whatever they were charging

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dana's getting to be unbearable. I realize he's crossed that line for a lot of you but I've always been on his side for the most part... it's changed rather quickly this year

 

[af1 1982]

Dana just seems OD sensitive this year.

Dude needs to take a long vacation or something

that conor/aldo build up was mcmahon like in production. the back and forth, one guy being a heel and all. ring entrance with musical performances. how often do they do that at an ufc event? then again, highest ppv buy since brock if i am correct

not a fan of how the fighters are getting screwed with the rbk deal, their paydays (dont even know how ufc justifies paying rory that little for his last bout), stitch/burt firing. not sure if it is all on dana or fertitas but dana been extra sensitive recently in answering q's

btw, i'm a fan of both.

They're smart for only rolling up on people who fight with their hands.

ufc won't get a penny from me for that weak fight pass.

Dana is the type of dude that likes to be in control of everything. He can control the things fighters say and he can basically control the mma media by blacklisting people. But with more and more fans getting upset and speaking out against things like the Stitch firing, Reebok uniform, and the Twitter hashtags "**** Reebok" "**** UFC" that were trending, he couldn't control it so he loses his mind.

 

[shogun]

Good. I know the fertittas are loyal to him but having that jackass be the president and public voice of the company is not a good look. Dude disrespects everyone.

 

[spiderjericho]

Saw someone post Rhonda was the greatest fighter of all time. I was like lol.

I love Rhonda. She's an excellent judoka and been on a tear in Strike Force and UFC but her level of competition has been pitiful. The fact we're talking about a third fight with Tate and nothing else besides a possible super fight with cyborg shows how shallow that division is.

Feel like Weidman and JBJ are the UFC's best p4p champs right now. If T.J. fought Faber, Cruz, super fight with Dodson and Edgar, I'd say he's legit.

Cormier ain't the champ. HW title is a hot potato. LW is deep but Pettis and RDA have been injured. Last dominant champ was probably B.J.

GSP was probably the goat WW (despite his last performance).

No other industry would allow a hypocrite and unprofessional douche bag be the mouth piece of their organization for this long.

Forgot about Jose. Seems like a lot of people do.

I mean he is ranked #1 p4p......

Technically he's #1 because of JBJ's drug fueled crime spree.

Personally:
1) JBJ
2) Aldo
2) Weidman (mainly for being a Brazillian killer if he beats Rockhold, Bisping and Souza/Romero, I'd put him past Aldo since Chris beat the "GOAT")
4) Mighty Mouse

After that is a huge drop off with Frankie, T.J., Werdum, Rhonda, etc.

I put Frankie, TJ, Werdum and Ronda up there with DJ tbh. JBJ, Aldo and Weidman are above them

Cain gon remind yall soon enough why he shpuld b in the top 5 p4p and d Cruz

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I want to believe cain is still p4p I just have to see him do better against werdum who is now on track to be one of the best hws in history by resume

 

[spiderjericho]

Cruz yes. T.J.'s stock would rise big if he were to beat Cruz. Or Cruz could exit out of MMA with a win over TJ and retire Undefeated at bantamweight and a claim to P4P great.

Cain no. It's all about your body of work. 2X champ, beat Brock (which in hindsight doesn't mean much), dominated JDS twice but nothing else. HW has been shallow for a long time. D.C. Moving down to LHW, the absence of Josh Barnett hurt the depth of the division.

JBJ is truly the only P4P King. His resume is undeniable. He's technically never lost. And he doesn't have any weak areas.

Weidman has to amass a few wins and fight consistently before he can challenge JBJ.

Aldo is great. I think if he were to beat Connor and move up to LW and terrorize that division. I'd put him above Anderson.

I want to believe cain is still p4p I just have to see him do better against werdum who is now on track to be one of the best hws in history by resume

Agreed. If he could have rematches and win against AA, Overeem and JDS, I'd say he's probably the best HW the last 5 years.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I feel like he drew with reem possibly won

I would love to see werdum rematch jds. I was hoping that would be the match but it looks like cain again which I guess I'm not mad at

 

[mr jordan04]

Dana just has a big *** ego. All these fighters worship the ground he walks on because they have nowhere else to go. They continue getting paid pennies while Dana is milking millions and millions, but that's how big corporations work

 

[af1 1982]

Weidman
JBJ
Aldo

Are all in a class of their own in terms of P4P

 

[RustyShackleford]

No hate

But I won't put Wiedman up there with Bones and Aldo just yet, not until be gets a couple more wins as champ

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

It's all hate lol you can admit it :]

Silva twice, machida and vitor.. Maia on like a week notice.. That's next level

He has some tough dudes coming up though. If he gets through those.. Sheesh

I see how Aldo and jones are the rarest of air though

If he gets through the next couple fights I'll give it to him

But compared to Aldo and Bones, nah not yet

 

[RustyShackleford]

BTW I just watch Shogun v. Nougueria 1 for all times shake

I forgot how trash Shogun's boxing was but how his Greco was

And I forgot how amazing his chin was back then too. Dude must have some Pacific Islander in him

 

[g money 87]

If Weidman beats jacare, rockhold, romero....#1 p4p without a doubt

 

[RustyShackleford]

Depends on Aldo's work during that same time frame
