The UFC Results

Brock Lesnar has just let everyone know that he doesn’t give a shit about Fedor. In the upcoming UFC 91: Couture vs. Lesnar, Brock is aiming to prove himself to the MMA world and is starting by running his mouth about “The Last Emperor.” Not a good start in my opinion.

“Who gives a shit about Fedor Emelianenko?” Lesnar started “I’m sick and tired of sitting on the phone listening about Fedor. Who f***ing gives a shit?”.

More information has become available since news broke that Mark Cuban of HDNet is taking Zuffa (UFC) to court. Randy Couture has signed a contract with HDNet that is going to be activated once the promotional end of Couture’s contract expires.

The speculation all points to a mega-fight between Fedor and Couture in Dallas, Texas. This contract is necessary because without it there would be no basis for HDNet to take the UFC to court. The angle Mark Cuban is trying to use is that the UFC is putting into place an illegal block on Randy Couture’s ability to practice his trade. What makes this even more interesting is that Texas law prohibits indefinite employment restrictions.

This is enormous news for MMA fans and what is happening is a great thing. We love the UFC and what it has done for MMA but their abusive tactics are too much at times and hurt the sport and the fans that line their pockets. This all could have been avoided if the UFC would have not been so stiff when trying to aquire Fedor.

Tim Sylvia has recently commented in his forum that “I have one fight left on my contract I want to stay with the UFC but I am going to go were the money is right now Brock is making more money then me that has to change I have a better name then him and I am a better fighter then him, in case u didn’t know my manager runs m1 so I have a pretty good in so we will see what happens in the next few months.”

Since he has that in with M1, this could actually provide the organization with a real heavy weight for Fedor to fight. This could be very, very interesting to see. Even though we would much rather see Fedor and Couture, this potential fight would at least give us something to speculate on. Would Fedor be able to finish, will he be able to stand up with Sylvia, etc, there are so many comparisons to made.

Even though we are not real hot on Tim Sylvia, he has been the champ twice, and is very well known in the UFC. If the UFC were to lose him it would be a huge blow and only thin out the already thinning heavy weight division more.
