what the hell happened to the ufc’s heavyweight division. less than a year ago the thing was stacked with the best aside from fedor and josh barnett.
and maybe some lesser guys like ricco rodriguez, antonio silva, pedro rizzo, and jeff monson but def not as much.

it had randy, tim sylvia, andrei, nogueria, kongo, grocop, gonzago, werdum, brock lesnar, frank mir. what the f happned? here’s why…

RESPECT & PAYMENT. you can’t have fuckers like brock lesnar regarles of his name’s attraction getting paid more than tim sylvia and fucking randy the natural fucking couture. oh well, at least all the other divisions are still stacked.

Chris, that is still just a rumor. I’m sure it is what they would like to happen, but nothing has been signed yet. I’m not even sure if the UFC’s exclusive negotiating period with AA has lapsed yet.

AA vs Nog is a fight I’d like to see. AA deserved this shot more than Mir, and at least should be the next in line. The only person he has lost to since 2002 is Tim Sylvia.

I still hold out hope of seeing Fedor in UFC, but now the results of his fight with Sylvia will have a big impact on the next round of offers and negotiations.

Arlovski is already scheduled to fight Ben Rothwell with the new affliction promotion… I think Dana doesn’t want his fighters to goto new competition so he wants to sign arlovski now… but if you ask me its a little too late… and Arlovski is looking to make his home in another organization.

bigfish,

not that I disagree with you, but I feel i have to point out…

The HBO deal was pretty much a done deal, until the HBO exec decided put the smackdown on his girlfriend outside the casino in Vegas. Subsequent investigation revealed prior abuse charges and he was let go. Unfortunately he was championing the deal and the guy that took charge after him is staunchly against mma.

I know I’m delirious, but I still hold on to the hope of seeing Fedor in the UFC, it just makes a lot of sense.

Dana White is just full of horsshit….From way back when things like the HBO is a “DONE” deal and the UFC will be on network tv to WE will “HAVE” Fedor, ETC, ETC…..It could go on and on and on…….

Plain and simple, the UFC is making AA wait until the last possible second to go on with his career. While in the meantime they have probably offered 1/2 of what he is worth and just making sure that NO ONE else can have his services until the very last minute possible
