lol, no wonder he's laughing all the time.

There are many things to smile at when you smoke weed everyday.

I don't look it at as Riddle betraying his team. It's not at all like the person that said he thinks just because Matt lost he doesn't need the team so he's gonna f them over...He just wants to f May over because May is a complete overall douche bag and also May made some smart ass comment to Riddle after his loss...May got what he deserved...well actually i wish he would have been the one that got his jaw broken in 4 places. I'm not just hating on him because he's arrogant (which he is), but he completely sucks which we saw last fight. He is damn lucky he even got to be on the show. I saw absolutely no skill from him in the fight against Matt Brown, all i saw was sloppy ass looping punches similar to what drunken unskilled guys throw.

May is a huge douche and was not helping the team at all by sitting out. It is a 16 man tournament, 32 man this year. It is about the guy who wins it, not about the teams. They have teams so that they have some way of seperating the guys so they can fight each other, I dont really care about the team aspect of the show, because mma is an individual sport and each and every guy is there for himself.

You have got to be kidding when you say MMA is an individual sport. Training camps, training coaches, training partners, cutmen, etc are all huge parts of it.

The fact that the winners get to choose the fights and that Rampage was already losing so badly is the reason I thought it was in really poor taste.

mma is an individual sport, of course you have training camps etc.. an individual sport doesnt mean it only takes one person to prepare for the sport etc.. it means an individual does the sport by himself, without a team. There are mma camps, but the individuals determine wether they are successful. Riddle wanted Brown to win and not May, perfectly understandable. So he gave him a tip on how to beat him. If May had been training, being a decent teammate and everything then I would understand the problem but he was just helping a dedicated guy who deserves to move on in the tournament hints on how to beat a jackass, who didnt deserve to be on the show and was being a complete ass to everyone on both teams.

**SimplyNate** · 05-11-2008, 11:09 PM

I think you have to surround yourself with good guys to be successful. Your trainers are still there even when you are in the octagon shouting out advice.

I'd call it a team sport but that's just my opinion.

Actually he lives and trains with CB Dollaway in New Mexico or Arizona now. (Whatever one Dollaway was from)
