Did you hear? There is an article on bloody elbow website that says: "Joost Raimond, the operations manager of Emelianenko's global promotion company M-1, invited the winner of the July 11 UFC heavyweight championship fight between Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir to attend the Emelianenko-Barnett bout, and pushed for the UFC to allow Emelianenko to fight that man as part of a one-fight contract on a card that could be fully promoted by UFC." <-- that... i dont think dana white is going to allow it though because fedor cant just come in, embarass the champ then leave... that would be stupid for dana white to allow
Dana White is no dummy. Signing the almighty Fedor to a one match deal would be ill advised and isn't going to happen unless every one in UFC goes insane.
Hi J.R. I have an MMA question. First I will cast this question in the light some things I have read. The "Ice Man" Chuck Liddell said recently that he is not going to make any decisions regarding weather or not he retires from MMA until his emotions over losing his last fight passes and he has a clearer head. That sounds wise. He may still decide to retire in a few months which really only he can rightfully decide. Even if he fights only one more time, win or lose if after that fight he still has his health should he retire, thats hard to say. If he is honestly fit should he try one more time, if not than why? Also do you think that any amount of rest and training at this point can put him back into MMA condition?
Tough question. If he is encountering slurred speech then Chuck needs to say adiós. He also needs to make sure that he gets a cat scan to check out his brain. I would rather see him move on but no one tells a warrior to stop fighting but the warrior himself.
Hey JR. If Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather will slug out. Who do you think deserves the lion's share of the profits? And at what fraction do they divide it?
Mayweather will likely get a little more % than Manny because Floyd is the better promoter and will sell more PPV's. Fans will pay big money to see Manny k.o. Floyd.
Did you get a chance to see King James of the Cavaliers make that game winning three pointer at the buzzer Friday night? Who do you want to see in the NBA Finals?
What an amazing shot. I talked to Kevin Nash today about that very subject. The marquis match up for TV is Kobe vs. LeBron but I would hope that at least one of them make the finals. I don't have a dog in the fight but I am a huge LeBron fan. He's a great kid.
Hi JR, greetings from the UK! I speak on behalf of a generation of people worldwide when I say thank you for providing us with so many great wrestling memories over the years. Its fair to say you have touched a lot of people all over the world and I hope you are aware of that. My question however, is regarding UFC. After the GSP/BJ Penn greasing debacle do you think greasing is something that goes on more than we think? During the Silva/Leites fight recently Silva's camp clearly greased his front with Vaseline but nothing was done and it wasn't even acknowledged!
I think the matter was over blown and won't be an issue going forward. Officials will keep a close on the matter.
do you ever plan on attending an MMA event (Affliction or UFC) in the future? The nearest affliction event would likely headline with Fedor Emelianenko vs Josh Barnett (sometime in August maybe?) and UFC 100 is coming up soon and its a STACKED card! Lesnar, Mir, GSP, and many others all on that card. Would you ever considering attending one of these events?
Absolutely. I am a big fan of MMA and am intrigued by its potential and infrastructure. UFC 100 would be a great one to see in person.
My condolences to the Sooner Nation, as reports are surfacing that the LA Clippers look to take Blake Griffin with the number 1 pick in the draft. It seems that no matter how talented the player, a banishment to the Clips is like sending a million dollar yacht through the Bermuda Triangle. Hopefully he has the goods to either turn them around(good luck with that) or he can hire Scott Boras to set up a killer trade and get him A-Rod bucks elsewhere. We can only hope!
OKC needs Blake and the NBA should help facilitate a trade that helps both Thunder and Clippers.
