If this has already been posted then sorry…..Q!
Have you seen the Mayhem interview on Real sports on HBO? He starts at 12:20 if you don’t wanna watch the whole thing. But the whole thing is interesting. Several things about this annoy me (not just the Mayhem interview...the whole segment). Making the insinuation that all MMA fighters are likely to be dicks is uncool. If every MMA fighter was a dick….there would be bodies littered everywhere. And if you watch the whole thing then you’ll here Bryant “Pompous ASSHOLE” Gumbel say “Well considering the clientele is this really surprising?” WTF is your PROBLEM prick! Way to insult an entire fanbase! Anyways….back to Mayhem. I am disappoint. LOVED his bully show. The guy is totally wasted in this interview….but he has a couple GEMS in here though. At one point he goes “Look….your cuffed jeans are really cool….but I….BEAT….GUYS….UP!” Another point the guy is saying…so someone like you is pretty dangerous and he whispers “I’m a WEAPON.” Hahaha. At another point he says….I can take down every guy in the room in seconds like (then goes into judo chops and shit and then says) MARTIAL ARTS. HAHAHA. Too funny. To be clear I do not think beating on ladies is funny....by Mayhems behavior in the interview is. http://www.mma-core.com/news/Video_W...y_Mack/1107012

That HBO show was a clear, pathetic, selfishly-motivated hit piece on MMA. HBO sports depends on people's interest in boxing, and MMA has probably harmed their business. There are dirtbags in every sport.

This free card tomorrow is very good by free card standards. Not spectacular, but very good. 4 of the 6 fights on the main card are very interesting and 3 are very relevant to the title picture. It really drops off in the prelims, but eh, what do you want out of a FS1 fight night.

Wow, Amanda Nunes just obliterated McMann with a rnd 1 TKO. She's probably going to be in the 2016 conversation for Rousey.

Well, that was a pretty bad decision, but Dariush handled it with class. I love it when a fighter is honest enough to acknowledge that he probably shouldn't have won the decision.

He didnt say that. Just said it could have gone either way, not that Johnson was robbed.

Most fighters will unflinchingly defend their controversial win and say he definitely won in the face of criticism. Dariush said he would have totally understood if the other hand was raised. That is very rare.

Ive heard lot of guys justify BS wins by saying it was close and could have gone either way. He defended the decsion by saying maybe his kicks and jab was the difference.

He was clearly, visibly, shocked. He wasn't trying to explain to the crowd why he thought he won, he was trying to think of some reason why the judges may have given it to him. And then at the end, again, he said he would have understood if the other fighter's hand was raised. That is very rare.
