Well, at least he's not in his 40s and trying to come back. Either way, he retired a champ (even if the decision victory vs. Hendricks was a bit of a stretch imo) and unless he's strictly looking for money ala Silva, he should just stay retired. I -really- doubt he's going to put on a Koscheck performance with Woodley. There's definitely a difference in styles there.

not gonna miss hearing lawler talk, much respect for his skill and run as champ but the guy has the charisma of an insurance commercial

I watched that on Bloody Elbow or something and I thought it looked so staged.

Also,UFC on Fox: Maia vs. Condit Aug 27, 2016 Rogers Arena in Vancouver.

Tickets are like 50 bucks and it's a block away yet i can drum up the energy to care about this card.

Ameraves Ameraves what did we do the MMA event brackets through years ago? I'm half curious if something similar could be setup through Xenforo

Hmm, was it the one through Sherdog? Could probably go dig through the thread on rerolled to find it.

Let me look around and see if I can find it.

Funny, it's in the first post on the rerolled forums. And yeah it was through Sherdog, but it looks like they don't exist anymore.

I see this addon, and it looks like it would handle the usual sportsball stuff, but not sure if you could have it split down to rounds/finish/etc like the Sherdog one did.

Pickem

You sure it can be used for MMA? Even if it was just straight pick-em, at least it would be something. I miss doing those fight picks, it made the fights a bit more fun to discuss after the fact. Oh and of course the bragging rights that came along with winning!

Kinda crazy that Bruce Leeroy is headlining a card. I mean, I know the guy has come a long ways since his time on TUF, but really, headliner?

Pretty sure I posted this on the other boards, but I feel I need to emphasize it again.

Dana is a fucking douche. He made such a big fucking deal about the fighters wearing "kits" so they look more professional. Yet you look at the Octagon and it is filled with shitty ads. It looks like absolute shit, and if he is trying to argue about looking like the other pro sports (NFL, NBA, MLB, etc.) someone needs to point out that none of them have shit plastered all over the field/court. Anything other than a big UFC logo in the middle really shouldn't be there. Maybe have promos on the padding for upcoming fights (like they do now for UFC 202), but other than that, nothing.

What Dana says and the true reasons are not at all the same. Reebok exists in the UFC only to pad the pockets of the brass, not to look professional.
