Way to pimp yourself. As a consumer I can say whatever I want about whoever I want. Let me know if you are down!!

It isn't Quail, it is Quayle. Also, as a couch potato, I don't give a damn how much work Lister does to be boring. The only decision in recent memory that I enjoyed was Rampage V Forrest. That is probably the only one I've ever enjoyed. So fighters whose careers are based on decisions, improve or get out of the UFC. Simple as that, as far as I am concerned.

That's interesting logic. Funny besause I thought entertainment was a big part of the goal of mma, and I'm not too sure you are an expert on what I find entertaining.

And if you are referring to me as a couch POTATO fan......you have no clue. I actually enjoy the technical aspect of MMA. I just stated the obvious which people find Lister and Okami to be boring (whoops, technical) fighters. One of my favorite fighters is Machida, so dont call me out. Hopefully you aspire far enough so we can get in the cage against each other. I fight at 205, but could make 185. # Greg on January 5th, 2009 11:50 am

He's better off fighting in Japan anyway. His style suits him better fighting there. I’ve read elsewhere that Lister asked to be released. He’s better off fighting in Japan anyway.

As an aspiring fighter I hope you realize this industry isn't about eking out wins by the most boring means possible, but entertaining people with a well rounded skill set. Unless the UFC continues to cull the ranks and keep only the best fighters in their stable the brand they have worked so hard to build will fade and people will stop paying for it. I get a kick out of someone assuming they are the only ones in the world qualified to have a valid opinion of what is entertaining. Considering the UFC cut Lister directly after a win you have only one conclusion to make--he was getting paid too much to be boring. Get off your high horse.

Horrible last match up too, against a guy (Okami) who equally bores with the best. No news here, it was win or go home.

Whether he asked for his release, or the UFC released him, I think it was the right move. It's obvious Lister needs to work on the striking portion of his game,and fighting in smaller shows might be the way to work that out and perhaps one day end up back in the UFC.

Makes sense. I'm all for technique, but that guy is boring to watch. He couldn’t beat the better guys (Okami & Marquardt), and couldn’t keep it remotely exciting during his wins. Makes sense.
