Cracking jokes about Tanner going back to chopping down trees or being the white Kimbo Slice is fine. But making fun of a mental illness, which addiction of any kind is, is crossing the line.

But he didn't make jokes about Tanner looking homeless or a shell of himself or even that he looked terrible. He said he was in a casino and had gambled half his purse away. If you think that is funny, fine. I don't. I guess we are just two different people that read this site for different reasons. ok, I will lighten up.

He came into the cage looking homeless. That is not the Tanner I ever want to think of. He was a shell of himself and looked terrible. If anyone wants to make some jokes about that feel free. If no one did, I would not read the comments. Lighten up, I don’t read comments to get facts/scoops (blackjack table Tanner), i read it for the humor.

I read it everyday for the updates and opinions from the writers. I don't always read the comments, but sometimes do. Mostly after a fight card I do read them to get the views of other fans. I often come into the website with an opinion but after reading the writers views and the comments made, I have found myself changing my opinion. I realize that maybe I wasn't seeing the whole picture. etc. My point is that I am not an expert, nor will I ever be, and by keeping an open mind I am able to learn from others who enjoy this website and the comment section that is allowed. That being said, I came here this morning and read all the comments, then left the website and read USAToday. The whole time in the back of my mind the comments were still rolling around in my head and I came back to post. Everyone of us who leaves a comment has something to offer. I have gotten much from others who comment. Everyone's opinion is valued. If someone decides to post a comment poking fun at someones weakness, in todays case disease, then they can. It may be funny to some, but not to others. It was done in poor taste, it was low, it just wasn't nice. Keep in mind this is just my opinion. What was the point? I understand if you make fun of his performance in the octagon, but not making fun of someone's addictions. In turn, other posters address it in their own way, which starts a bunch of hateful comments. I hate that. Sam wrote an article the other week after the EliteXC CBS card, and in the article he said something to the effect of some people don't know where to draw the line with their comments, but that this is the internet and there is no line. How very true. I initially chose to ignore fightfans comments, but others chose to tell him how distasteful his post was. Instead of realizing his faux paux he still thinks it okay to post personal attacks that aren't true. The post was a straight up lie, and he did not see Tanner in a casino gambling, etc. I am not sure, but I believe that can be construed as libel. So, just a small request. Keep all the fight opinions coming, but not the personal attacks and lies that defame others. Help keep this site enjoyable and informative for others. And sure, anytime "the line" is crossed, just stand corrected and let it go. Please. First let me say that I love this website. I read it everyday for the updates and opinions from the writers.

I thought the Sanchez fight was pretty good and so was the stevens-fisher fight all the others were one sided and easy predictions, but all were worth the money. Rogan I think is getting hard to listen to him. They need to put Florian back in there to commentate. @ # 13. lol, U r right about Everything u said.What fight was that ref watching?

You aren't funny and your remarks are uncalled for. As for CB being a contender... I picked him to win the season, but it is evident that he is a target for submissions. I see no way he contends at 185, a division loaded with slick bjj guys. Congrats to Amir, a guy with no pro fights wins TUF. Awesome. Fightfan, why don’t you go back to Sherdog?

He will bounce back. Fisher look like the typical fisher, i still dont think he will get a championship shot! that weight class is way to loaded!

And all the other people saying this was a bad card must be Kimbo fans because this was a way better card than what the trash that was on CBS. Diego looked good, he showed a good chin and was aggressive like he was before he fought Koz. Amir suprised alot of people by pulling an armbar on CB twice!!!. I was happy with this card especially for the ultra-low price of FREE!!! @ #6 kogepan

I can't wait to see what they have planned for Amir. I think he needs to move down a weight class! Diego looked awesome. Improved stand up, was super aggressive and he took some good shoots from lf. I was very impressed, i think he is back! I would love to see a rematch with kos!!! Hope July 19th is awesome, but bofore than, cant wait for boris to shock the world again and beat page! I love page, but boris has something that most fighters lack: the will to survive!!! I'm taking boris in a rear naked choke victory in the third round!

I know the UFC can't do anything about the judging, but I'd be surprised if there isn't a response from the athletic commission. The other 2 judges scored it 30-26 for Grove. You can't have judging be that diverse. If that's the result of professional and accountable judging, you might as well let people off the street judge fights. The result would be no different. Other than that, the card was pretty good. Better than good if you consider that there really wasn't any major headliners to raise the excitement level. I cannot wait for July 19th. ;-) What was with the judge who scored it 29-28 for Tanner?
