As for Affliciton surviving I sure hope they do because I want to see everyone fight. Seeing the UFC put on 2 events a month just doesn’t cut it. Thank you for the replays on Spike and HDNET and occasionally Versus. I want more live action!

Sengoku, Dream, Strikeforce… I mean I agree that we need more MMA but there is more on than you seem to think.

I don’t care who she fights for as long as Gina is on a national broadcast again soon. Personally, I would pay for any event that she is involved with. Of course, the laundry list of things I would pay to see Gina do is longer than a 6 year olds Christmas list!!!

i think randy just releaized that he wasn’t going to fight with fedor. Court battles were happening, keeping him on lockdown. Sure he wants the superfight but i think his ball re-dropped and he figured out he needs to go back to where he had his original contract. Yeah he signed a new one, but he knows that biting the hand that fed him, hurt him bad.
his clothing line with aflfliction maye be hurt but warrior, hostility and others will jump on board to help him make shirts.
Plus in the ufc again he gets xtreme couture advertising again, for his gyms and shirts, no need to wear the shirts we all know what they are.

I believe that Randy saw that Affliction was going down so he jumped back on the guys who will pay him for years to come, opposed to the guys who will pay him for maybe two events before they go under.

Why doesn’t Zuffa create a women’s fighting organization called UFFC or Ultimate Female Fighting Championship. Hell it works out perfectly with the letters and all. Why the hell not? What other top dog in this tight knitted group of UFC promotions will promote women’s fighting better than the UFC itself?

A female fighters’ division in the WEC actually sounds great, and it would go along well with their current idea to dissolve the light-heavyweght and middleweight divisions to focus on the lighter weights. Adding at least one women’s division would bolster the already strong slate of lighter-weight fighters in the WEC, and everyone knows the lighter weights are often the more exciting.

As for Affliction, their lack of consistent shows and cult popularity worries me, and this jackass only makes it seem worse. I wonder whether Affliction can survive much longer than EliteXC, and if so, it might only be because of Golden Boy Promotion’s backing.

If Carano makes a decision on her future based on who Randy Couture decides he’s not doing business with this week is a huge mistake. He may change his mind the week after that and so on. She would be best served distancing herself from Randy and Kim Couture.

And let this be a lesson to Affliction: Don’t fuck with your own business partners, they probably won’t appreciate it.

There may not have been the whole interview represented in this article, but you get the jist of it. Beard is just another hot-headed idiot that needs to shut up.

sounds like a key part of the interview is missing.

who just randomly blurts out that they hope someone is going to get killed in a fight…
