    REED's Been Posting on this Forum Since the Rampage vs. Dan Henderson Fight...In that Time Frame, REED has YET to See YOU Actually Show the Least Bit of Confidence or Allegiance to ANY Fighter...

    Instead, U Sit Back & WAIT for a Particular Fighter to Gain a Bit of a Fanbase, THEN U Tear that Fighter Down AFTER the Fact:boohoo:....

    ANYBODY Could Do that LAME Shit, Homegirl...The EASIEST thing to Do on a Messageboard is to NEVER have an Opinion of YOUR OWN & Instead Wait to Say "I Told U So" when a Fighter Inevitably Gets Knocked Off...Or to Complain about Every Single Fighter, THEN Scream "I Told U So", when 1 of them Inevitably Loses...

    U're like Free Ike MINUS the Sense of Humor...The Boxingtime Guys SWEAR that U USED to Be a Good Poster, but REED Certainly HASN'T seen a Trace of Evidence to Validate it...

    Well i doubt you have been watching MMA more than me. As for Lesnar, He far exceeded initial expectations. When he first came on the scene, nobody thought he was going to too well seeing as how Mir subbed him. He then went on to have some good fights in MMA. I honestly think that if Lesnar was not injured, he would be still fighting today. I think his injury stopped him from training properly.

    But you cant compare yourself to myself or Reed or anyone else. Thats because you dont think any fighter is good. You constantly talk in a way where dont make any predictions. How about you predict the winners of some fights from here on out. Lets see how much you "know" I know when it came to predicting fights, nobody picked better than me. So lets see what you got. Start predicting winners. Lets see this knowledge you have.

    If you notice, I never said any particular fighter was "garbage". My intention was to keep this MMA forum from reaching the jock-riding level. It's happened TOO MANY TIMES and it infuriates me. Everybody has the right to pick their winners. I pick wrong all the time. But the last thing I'll ever do is go around parading about the "Machida Era" or saying "Lesnar is the baddest man on the planet!"

    BoxingTime was a generation ago back when we all discussed boxing...back when boxing still had a lot of stars. My passion was greater then. Today all we have are Fraudweather fans taking jockriding to a whole different level.

    Hanzy as a saviour for the MMA forum. This was not what I would have expected to see in any MMA forum conversations. Man, do I not have my finger on the pulse of this forum or what?

    The baddest man on the planet is usually the nick name that follow when you become the MMA heavyweight champ. Its been done since Ken Shamrock. You dont have to worry about saving this forum. In all honesty, you bring it down.

    Rubbish! You're trying to save your backside here. REED is the one who made the claim that Lesnar was the baddest man on the planet after the Carwin victory and many on here felt that if Carwin couldn't stop Lesnar then Velasquez had no shot.
    I didn't see you having any input on that note. As a fighter and a fan, you should've known better.

    I'm trying to keep people on here open-minded. I made a statement saying that anybody who is using the logic that Velasquez has no chance stopping Lesnar because he's a poor man's Carwin needed their head checked.
    At the end, it's not about making good predictions. It's about how you present yourself on these forums and avoiding jumping from one bandwagon to another.

    I've said Jon Jones is a good fighter with great talent. The only negative thing I said is that he's too big for LH and that if he's going to make a legacy for himself, instead of just looking to pay the bills, he should challenge himself in the elite league of the UFC.
    Which would you rather plunk down $49.95 to see REED, Jon Jones vs Dan Henderson or Jon Jones vs Alistair Overeem? Which fight excites you more and which fight do you think fans would like to see more?
    How about Jon Jones vs Dos Santos or Jon Jones vs Minotauro Noguira? You're saying you would not much rather see these fights more than say a Jon Jones vs Forrest 'Gump' Griffin or Jon Jones vs Tito 'shot' Ortiz which is pretty much all Jones can expect to see in his current division? :dunno:
    Sports is star-driven. Much like boxing which needs stars like Mayweather and Pacman, the UFC needs stars to sell ppvs.
    Just like we wanted to see Tyson vs Tua or Lennox vs Wlad, why is it I'm being painted as a bad guy just because I want to see a potential future HOFer like Jon Jones fight the cream of the crop as opposed to guys he's supposed to beat up on?

    Any of you remember when I verbally abused Hanz for always making predictions AFTER fights?

    I backed him into a corner about making a pick PRIOR to a fight and he disappeared.

    He's a retrospect Nostradamus....
