It doesn't matter what his reasons are. There was other fighters there that could have used the main fight card. The forum he chose to express his displeasure was definitely not the right one. Having your own country turn on you and cheer for the guy mockey your pussy antics is no way to get a point across, it is only a way to public humiliate yourself. I think everyone has lost all respect for this guy. Getting BOOed out of your own country says it all. It doesn’t matter what his reasons are.

In his contract he ought to demand scented candles, specific beverages and very specific types of catered food in his dressing room. He could feature costume changes between rounds. Tight little spandex numbers with plunging necklines and rhinestones. If he's going to fight like a diva, he should completely play the part. Starnes ought to see how far he can push this.

I’d personally be offended by any major organization that rewards him with a contract, and I suspect a LOT of other fans would feel the same." Michaelthebox, I think you're underestimating how stupid some MMA organizations are. ProElite has Melvin Costa under contract. And Mike Kyle recently got signed by Strikeforce. “Major organizations would be stupid to pick him up.

Memo to all fighters: You may get hurt fighting I am pretty sure Starnes (and every other fighter on the roster) knows what the UFC does and does not pay for. So if you're worried about getting hurt and who's going to pay for it..maybe get a corporate job. My understanding is the UFC will cover all medical issues that happen in the Octagon, but will not cover issues that occur in training.

I'll cut Grove and especially Speers some slack but I agree with Patrick about Guillard -he should be on the gotta go list too. If he left some of his cockyness at the door he might actually show real promise but as is he sucks. I'm not really a Sell fan and couldn't care less about the others. Danny,
