The worst part of the Reebok deal is they aren't paying the fighters directly, as their current sponsors are, they are paying UFC. So, wear a shirt that doesn't put money in your pocket or help you fund training in hopes of winning... yeah fucking right. That certainly won't go over well with the majority of fighters, especially those that aren't making $500k+ a fight.
 
Lol, at what point does Zuffa start overlooking how much good Dana has done for UFC and start realizing how much bad he is currently doing.

Unless he does something super drastic, he's not going anywhere. Even if they keep him as a figure head he'll stay. He's the only consistent face on UFC after all this time.

Mazz is one of the worst refs by far, from time to time I watch the clip of Lesnar talking about how he's going to punch the mustache off Steve next time he sees him. As he storms down the hall and rips a door right off the hinges.

I always remember steve with that 'stash. The next fight I saw him reffing after Lesnars tirade, it was gone. I always wondered if something happened lol.

Sucks for Jake, he's always been a stand up dude, or at least seems like one.

Shields a stand up dude? You lay down with dogs, you're gonna get fleas. He's a "Scrap Pack" member, after all...

Anyone else catch Rogan throwing shade at attending UFC events? I just remember him talking about how the best place to view it is at home.
 
He's a dick most likely because of the brazilian tap which is famous in brazil and was taught never to let go until the ref steps in and tries to pull you apart.

The peoples champ did it perfectly to silva.

I don't entirely agree with letting go as soon as the opponent taps. What if the ref doesn't see it? He should move in immediately upon tapping, so holding it for longer shouldn't be a huge issue. Similar with referee stoppage due to knockouts. If the ref doesn't step in, just because you think the opponent is knocked out, you don't stop punching. The refs need to step it up if fighters are complaining about holds being too long.

Though, it shouldn't take more than a touch from the referee for the fighter to let go or stop.
