Its Raw Deal starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. I think the only Arnold movie not released on DVD. A friend of mine lent me a burnt copy from the web a couple weeks ago. It was the first time I watched it and I've watched it 2 more times since than I like it so much . It has the bad guys from Scarface and The Living Daylights in it also and some funny one liners. They don't make them like this anymore.

Bisping vs Kang, Hardy vs. Kim UFC 105
http://mmajunkie.com/news/15932/repo...or-ufc-105.mma Reports: Michael Bisping vs. Denis Kang, Dan Hardy vs. Dong Hyun Kim in works for UFC 105 The UFC's fall schedule is rapidly filling, and with UFC 103 and 104's fight cards nearly complete, the organization has turned its attention to UFC 105 in November. And according to a pair of new reports from Fighters Only magazine, two high-profile fights for the card are nearly signed. According to Fighters Only, Michael Bisping (17-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) will likely meet Denis Kang (32-11-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC), while Dan Hardy (22-6 MMA, 3-0 UFC) and Dong Hyun Kim (12-0-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) are in discussions to meet at the Spike TV-broadcast event in Manchester, England. Bisping was originally expected to face Wanderlei Silva, though a recent surgery has left the "Axe Murderer" on the shelf for the immediate future. With the Brazilian unable to face "The Count," Bisping will reportedly now meet Kang. Bisping will be returning to action for the first time since a devastating loss to Dan Henderson at UFC 100, while Kang will be looking to build on the momentum of an April win over Xavier Foupa-Pokam. While the now-scrapped Bisping vs. Silva bout was expected to enjoy main event status, the Fighters Only report suggests the new Bisping vs. Kang match will be relegated to co-main event status in favor of a yet-to-be-named "high-profile" matchup. In addition to the Bisping vs. Kang bout, previously announced UFC 105 participant Dan Hardy will also meet Dong Hyun Kim according to a second report from Fighters Only. Hardy fought most recently in a June split-decision win over Marcus Davis, upping his record in the UFC to 3-0. Kim returns to action for the first time since a UFC 100 win over T.J. Grant. Kim still maintains an undefeated record after his January loss to Karo Parisyan was overturned by the Nevada State Athletic Commission due to a failed drug screen by "The Heat." With the expected matchups to the UFC 105 card live on Spike TV, the event now includes: * BJ Penn vs Diego Sanchez * * Michael Bisping vs. Denis Kang* * Dan Hardy vs. Dong Hyun Kim* * Matt Brown vs. James Wilks* * Ross Pearson vs. Aaron Riley* * DaMarques Johnson vs. Peter Sobotta* * Roli Delgado vs. Andre Winner*

Haven't looked through all the pages, so if somebody has brought this up I apologize. If you are looking for a great fighter to support than look no further than Tim Kennedy. Tim is a Staff SGT in the U.S. Army Special Forces, and has been deployed multiple times in support of OIF and OEF. Currently he is fighting in StrikeForce. He was scheduled to fight Cyborg until Cyborg hurt himself. His next fight is 25SEP against Zak Cummings.

Pretty weak card, but look forward to BJ vs Diego. Kang is nothing more than a confidence builder for Bisping after the ass kicking he took from Hendo. I can only hope Kang pulls an upset, as Bisping is one of the biggest asses in the sport IMHO.

I still have no idea why people think Bisping is any good, and how Kang beating him would be that much of an upset. He is a good fighter, but hes still at best a B level fighter. The fight being in England though should be motivation for Kang to try and finish him, we all know what happens in close fights involving Mike and the judges over there.
BJ/Diego should be great. I really want to see somebody push the pace with Penn. I was shocked at how he just basically handled Kenny, totally didn't expect it. Should be a great fight. |

I would think that Kang would be the favorite. Been going through TUF 9 today the more I hear Bisping talk the more I wanna watch Hendo KO him.

So your saying it's the typical UFC card.

Six televised bouts are scheduled to air during the HDNet telecast (10:00 p.m. ET), plus a special sparring exhibition between M-1 fighters Fedor Emelianenko and newly-crowned Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Gegard Mousasi, with a five-bout undercard assembled for the local crowd attending live. The main card is anchored by the United States debut of former NCAA champion "King" Mo Lawal and former NCAA All-American Mark "The Smashing Machine" Kerr. The undercard will be headlined by 8-1 Spanish heavyweight sensation Rogent Lloret taking on the latest addition to the M-1 Global roster, Russian heavyweight Alexey Oleinik. -Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal (4-0) vs. Mark Kerr (15-10) -Special Sparring Exhibition: Fedor Emelianenko vs. Gegard Mousasi (interesting) -Lucio Linhares (12-4) vs. Mikhail Zayats (8-3) -Jessie Gibbs (8-2) vs. Rob Broughton (10-4-1) -Karl Amoussou (10-2-1) vs. John Doyle (9-8) -Lloyd Marshbanks (17-8) vs. Michael Kita (5-3) -Daisuke Nakamura (19-10) vs. Ferrid Kheder (14-3) -Rogent Lloret (7-1) vs. Alexey Oleinik (24-4) -Eric Marriott (13-1) vs. Tim Bazer (9-6) -Sean Wilson (18-9) vs. Josh Orocho (11-6) -Rudy Bears (9-3) vs. Brendan Seguin (18-15-1) -Andria Caplan (0-0) vs. Mollie Ahlers-Estes (1-0) King Mo rawks! ![]() Keith Jardine speaks about Rashad, “Rampage” and Lyoto Machida It has been said before that “The Dean of Mean” Keith Jardine is one of the mosot intelligent and analytical fighters in MMA. His team mate Rashad Evans is taking on one of his former foes, Quinton Jackson, but what does Jardine think of the fight? In a recent interview, Jardine speaks about Rashad, “Rampage” and Machida, kicking off with an analysis of his own fight with Quinton “Rampage” Jackson. “I exited wrong a lot. I'd throw my combinations, and I would exit with my hands in the wrong place, and he would recoil and come through with punches. It was just a real subtle thing, and it's something that I've worked on since.” “I think that's a real good match-up for Rashad. I think Rashad might have a little bit too much speed for Quinton to deal with. I see that going really good for Rashad.” Jardine then turned his attention to the absolute enigma that is Lyoto Machida. “I don't want to give away too much, but you can't play into his strengths. You can't lunge forward. You just can't lunge on him. You've got to keep your balance and you've to keep your head about you, and you've got to be unorthodox yourself.” Prior to his unfortunate loss to Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, Keith Jardine had took wins over Brandon Vera and former UFC light-heavyweight champ Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell. http://mmabay.co.uk/jardine%20on%20r...%20rashad.html Speaking of Bisping/Hendo: ![]() ![]()

Don Frye Breaks his silence about M1 withdrawl
http://mmajunkie.com/news/15946/don-...for-change.mma While the executives of M-1 Global are no strangers to controversy and criticism, the organization's upcoming "M-1 Global presents Breakthrough" took a hit when original headliner Don Frye backed out of his fight with Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal. While M-1 Global CEO Joost Raimond immediately went on the offensive, issuing a press release that questioned Frye's motives for backing out, "The Predator" remained relatively silent on the subject. That is, until now. "I didn't drop out; I walked away," Frye recently told MMAjunkie.com Radio (http://www.mmajunkie.com/radio). "I didn't want to talk to anybody about this, but I'll talk to you fellas because you're my amigos. "This is business that should be conducted between me and Joost, or Roost, whatever his name is. But he got on the internet and did a Dana White/Perez Hilton internet blog and started talking [expletive]." Raimond's statements suggested Frye may have simply been looking for a way out of the fight with Lawal, and that he used the seemingly simple relocation of the Aug. 28 event from Los Angeles to Kansas City, Kan., as his ticket out of the event. Frye insists that's not an accurate representation of what happened. "Here's the deal: [The event] didn't just move from L.A.," Frye said. "It went from the Staples Center to the L.A. Convention Center. From the L.A. convention center to the Hilton in Las Vegas. From the Hilton in Las Vegas to an Indian casino on the Oklahoma-Texas border. From the Indian casino on the Oklahoma-Texas border to an Indian casino up in Tulsa, which is North Oklahoma. And from there up to Kansas City, Mo. "So you know, after four or five times changing the venue, and then we asked [Raimond] 'Hey, what are you doing for advertising? Are you sending a photographer out to Don's house?' He says, 'No, we're just going to use stock photos off the Internet.'" With a complete lack of faith in the promoter, Frye said he made the difficult decision to walk away. "So they don't know where the hell they're going to have it," Frye said. "They're not putting any money into advertising. So at that point we said, 'You know what? You just ain't got your [expletive] together. We're walking away.'" Frye said he would have been happy keeping quiet about the entire situation, but Raimond's release forced him to speak. "That's something that's between me and Joost, but he had to go and get on the [expletive] Internet and pull this [expletive], so then it opened it up to the whole [expletive] world," Frye said. "That's his fault, not mine. "The position of douchebag fight promoter, who thinks he's tough because he hangs out with fighters and insults fighters – that position's already taken. We don't need that, OK?"[/b] After walking away from the M-1 Global event, Frye will instead face Dave "Pee Wee" Herman in the main event of "Shark Fights 6: Stars & Stripes" on Sept. 12 in Amarillo, Texas. "Geez, Louise, this guy's 6-foot-4, 240 (pounds)," Frye said. "(He's) 14-1. Who signed me up for this son-of-a-*****? "I may have to reach up and punch him in the kneecap." LOL Frye is obviously talking about Dana White in bold. ![]()

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legend, Renzo Gracie reveals he could join UFC
http://mmabay.co.uk/Story%2002415.html Original source: GracieMag.com Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legend, Renzo Gracie has revealed he is in regular talks with UFC President, Dana White about joining the UFC, but only if the promotion can come up with the right kind of fight. Speaking to Sensei Sportv, Gracie said: “Dana White is my friend and we talk on the phone every now and again; whenever I have a suggestion for a fighter ready for the UFC we talk on the phone. We talk of my return and it may be that I fight in the Octagon, who knows. I haven’t any pretensions of becoming champion, but I’d like to face the champions. I’m going to keep fighting till I’m 50, for free is need be.” Gracie also spoke of Demian Maia’s title hopes in the middleweight division, something he can’t wait to see fulfilled. “He’s a golden boy, I can’t wait till Demian wears that belt on his waist.” Maia gets a chance to take a massive step forward at UFC 102 this coming weekend when he battles Nate Marquardt inside the octagon. Only time will tell if we will see a Gracie join him on the UFC roster any time soon.

I 'm getting excited for this weekend fight mainly because Demian Maia is on the card. He is my favorite fighter to watch and root for. I watch his fights with the same passion I do for Steelers games. When I first read about him a year ago all I had to do was look at his bio to see he was the real deal. Then I saw he had a undefeated record and after watching him fight I was still amazed. And he keeps getting better pulling out new tricks every fight. Its also fun seeing Wandy in his corner, I can't think of a better teamate to have in your corner. If he wins he deserves a shot against Anderson Silva.

I'm a big Maia fan as well, and have loved the shows hes put on in the UFC, and the awesome fighting spirit he exudes. I've always thought it would be a BJJ guy who could be Anderson, but I'm just not sure Maia is the guy. For one, if J-Mac was giving him fits on the ground, I'm sure Anderson will be able to hold his own, if the fight even gets to the ground.
Personally I'm thinking Nate is gonna be too much for Maia, and I find it hard rooting against either. I think both guys are amazing fighters, but I don't think either is beating Silva. |

J Mac giving Maia fits? J Mac has 17 submission victories out of 21 wins as well as 3 submission of the night awards. He nearly got triangled just over a minute into the fight. The bell saved him from getting choked out to end the round. He was mounted for most of the 2nd round while recieving punches and elbows. Then he was submitted in the 3rd. Nathan comes from the same gym as J Mac and I doubt his ground skills are much better. If Almieda could submit Nathan I would think Maia would be able too also. Also if Maia can't sub Silva theirs not too many left in world that could. You could easily say Maia is the best bjj guy in UFC since Royce Gracie. And I think Maia is even better than Royce was just because the game has elevated since then. But it is a fight and anything can happen which makes it fun to watch.

Word is that the UFC is trying to sign Pat Miletich. I think they only reason they want to sign him is so Strickforce can't. Otherwise, there is no reason for them to do it, imo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wandy's New Face http://www.fightlinker.com/wanderlei...s-new-face.mma The hot pointless rumor going around for the past few days was that Michael Bisping vs Wanderlei Silva (a rumor of a fight itself) was off because Wanderlei was getting his face fixed up by a plastic surgeon. I think we can all agree that Wand’s face generally looks like a balloon does four days after it was inflated, but I wasn’t aware that plastic surgeons were able to fix the mushy / puffy look. It’s a good thing his last fight earned him 60k Fight of the Night honors, because going in and saying “Fix it all” sounds expensive. ![]() ![]() ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PARISYAN VS HAZELETT @ UFC 106 http://www.mmaweekly.com/absolutenm/...9444&zoneid=13 A welterweight bout pitting returning fighters Karo Parisyan and Dustin Hazelett against each other has been verbally agreed to for UFC 106 on Nov. 21 in Las Vegas. Sources close to the bout confirmed the agreement to MMAWeekly.com on Monday. Parisyan (18-5) hasnt fought since UFC 94 in January. He defeated Dong Hyun Kim on the card, but later had the victory changed to a no contest by the Nevada State Athletic Commission when he tested positive for three banned painkilling substances. He was suspended for nine months and fined $32,000. Hazelett (12-4) last fought in November of 2008, when he defeated Tamdan McCrory by submission. He suffered a torn ACL while training for an anticipated bout with Ben Saunders at UFC 96. He had surgery to repair the injury, and has been sidelined, rehabbing, ever since. The two will be part of the undercard in support of a recently revealed title fight between UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar and challenger Shane Carwin. Tito Ortiz will make his UFC return on the same card, facing former UFC champion Mark Coleman in a light heavyweight bout at Mandalay Bay.

I don't know if this was already posted but DREAM officials say they have a big suprise for DREAM 12. Rumors are they might be using a Strikeforce style cage. Paulo Filho, Alistair Overeem, Sakuraba, Murilo Rua and Eddie Alvarez are rumored on the card but nothing official yet.
