Aaron Simpson, that guy is going places
Yeah, I agree on Simpson. I’m sure this will be another big market for UFC, and MMA, there seems to be alot of talent developing out of that area, with the ACS guys, and Ben Askren just moved there as well. This also isn”t too far from Greg Jackson’s guys fighting out of NM.
Arizona? Hmm. I wonder if John McCain gets comped tickets, would he go……
That would be the shit
What the hell, guys?
Nobody liked the McCain reference? Well, I thought it was funny……
Anything that irritates Mcain is funny to me Ozz. I would love to see him octagon side taking all kinds of crap from everybody.
