is it me or has the ufc really sucked recently? All I see are brawlers banging into each other and rolling around on the ground like cavemen hoping to win by luck or someone to tire. This is far cry from art. It seems the more money they dump into it the worst it becomes.

I think it is time for Hughes, Tanner, and Horn to all hang it up. Check the link for why I think it is time.

However I love to see them all fight, their experience alone puts them in a place that many will never reach.

I think most of it is alchol related. When I saw that tier member structure on his website I could tell he is desperate for cash and that is a shame because he is clearly a driven man.

It isn’t for Randy, but Tanner, Hughes, and Horn all seem to be heading down the same path and it can’t be just a coincidence…

Concerning Randy Couture and Dana White. I heard it this way : Randy came out of retirement for a fight with Fedor. Dana White was unable to lure Fedor over to the UFC so Randy retired. Randy was able to fight Fedor through another organization. Dana was mad that another organization was going to put together the fight that he has been trying to do. He then sued Randy for breach of contract preventing him from fighting amywhere other than the UFC until he finishes the terms of his contract. If this is true, It is sad that it came to this. All Dana would’ve had to do is be a little more lenient with the contract clause concerning fighting in other organizations. If he had done that, Fedor vs. Randy would’ve been set up the very next day!
