I like how Rogerio has multi tooled his striking game recently. Two nice wins since the Sokoudjou fight.

There's too much ____ needs to be in the UFC, but really Rogerio Nogueira needs to be in that 205 pound division. Although I'd be up for him ruining Tito's or Linland's shit any day.

Love the sound of that!

...Whoever didn't think Affliction wasn't good, what were you smokin' during the fight??? Dang...how many TKO's & KO's? Barnett, Arlovski, Belfort, baby Nogueria. The Don pulled out all the stops. The HWC of ring announcers- Michael Buffer. Having metal pioneers Megadeth jam, and a face off between the to greatest MMA fighters ever. The show was impressive. Great fight card, with Fedor showing why he is the best pound for pound MMA fighter so far. In my personal opinion, I think if Anderson Silva wins the UFC LHW belt...then for certain...Anderson Silva would be the pound for pound king. " I wanted to move up in weight class to find a new challenge for me". Anderson Silva. You rarely hear fighters say that..lol!

First, your first sentence is a double negative and really contradicts the rest of your message.

Second, your points for this show being great (though I think it was) were the wrong ones. Michael Buffer (though a big name indeed) did not perform well on this evening. I don't think he is really a fan of MMA. I had to rewatch the show to realize that because the first time I relaly didn't listen to anything. The announcers were disorganized and came off as amateur. And Megadeth just is not a metal pioneer. A big name, yes, but a pioneer they are not.

Your argument was weak, but your premise is accurate.

Mike Tyson used to get $10 to $25 million for a fight in the 80s so why shouldn't MMA fighters get a good paycheck?

not sure if it's correct. but wiki has a list.

"Tim Sylvia has always been terrible"...read bro...read. Tim Sylvia had only lost 4 times before Fedor and only to other champions. Tim isn't terrible that is way off..Fedor has beaten guys bigger than Shaq. Fedor IS the best....there only is a handful of guys left for Fedor to finish off...Now let's see who's gonna take the WAMMA belt from Fedor...Fedor...28-1..best overall MMA record in history...

Hey does anyone know how many buys the PPV did?

[BrutalKO]

ZZtiger.....yes it was accurate and I had no arguements with anything. So what you stated made no sense. The only arguement I see is that you had something negative to say about the Affliction event. If Affliction wasn't good enough for you...go watch TNA or the WWE!

Normally I don't get in between people arguing because if it doesn't involve me why should I care. However, you seem to be either a) making a fight for no reason or b) don't know basic English. Assuming its the first, look at your quote:

The didn't makes the sentence a negative, and the wasn't makes it what is referred to as a 'double negative'. The statement you made the way it is means if you thought Affliction wasn't good, what were you smoking during the fight??? The rest of your post goes on to talk about how awesome the show was, to which both I and ZZtiger agree.

ZZtiger basically said that he liked the fights, but not the whole package. He pointed out that Buffer wasn't so great, and that Megadeath wasn't/isn't a pioneer. Also, you have to admit the commentators were under par. Frank Trigg several times in the MIDDLE of the fight would start talking about something random, usually about himself.

He said something negative about the show because there were a few negatives, he even said "your points on this show for being great(though I think it was)" that means he enjoyed it. Saying to go watch wrestling instead is normally odd, but the fact that this is over 2 weeks later makes it even more so.
