I hear that all the time from the ignorant masses. "Dana White picks the winners". It's tiresome, stale, baseless, and plain ignorant.


Dana white doesn't pick the winners, this is true. But don't ever think for a second he doesn't pick all the match ups. The fact that Junie Browning stayed in that house shows that Spike TV has a HUGE hand in that show!

That's a lot different than saying that he influences the refs to call the fight one way or the other. We all agree (because we discussed it last year) that Spike has an influence on the fighter matchups and if Dana is going to give the guy the boot out of the house.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if Kimbo is the last heavyweight to fight.

I don't know. But, Rampage is like a running sound bite on there. I swear I LMFAO when he said that LM made RE do the stanky leg.

And that was the worst cut I've ever seen. Hopefully, after they stiched him, they handed him a bus ticked because Abe was horrible.

IMO FWIW abe should not have been on the show...he should've just stuck with his "real life" job and family

once again, rampage made me LOL for realz and i can't wait to hear some of the other things that will come out of his mouth this year

not happy that page and rashad will not fight at the original date.....i think page would take it...i just really dislike rashad. far too cocky IMO

kimbo will not win his first fight but will be under contract with UFC simply because dana can sell his name....dana is no dummy.....kimbo (and kimbo being beaten) are the sole reasons many people are watching this season anyways..

What's amazing is Abe was 6-1.

He can't fight, but he is one tough SOB. I couldn't imagine getting a cut like that and still fighting with someone throwing punches and elbows at that.

that cut and Edwin Dewees' cut that was shooting out blood like a faucet are too of the worst if not the 2 worst and they were both on TUF

To be honest he seemed kind of out of it to me. I wonder just how much blood he lost? Its not like he was doing anything lying on his back, but I guess he didn't get knocked out... so he has that going for him.

Also, did I hear him say, "Is it going to hurt?" at the docs office after the match? It might have been a joke, but either way it still funny.

The Dewees fight seemed bloodier because Dewees got on top then poured that shite in that guys face for a lot of the fight. I don't see how anyone is supposed to withstand a guy slowly dumping a pint of blood in your face? lol.

That cut Abe had is the worst I have seen in a fight though. It was a good half inch across. I would ask for a plastic surgeon to put that shite back together if I were him.

I thought he said it in reference to the needle, but after the beating he took, and the size of the cut... seems like the needle would be an after thought.

And like SmackD said, he is one tough SOB, but don't bring a needle near him. Again, he may have been joking, but either why I thought it was funny. That needle was pretty monstrous to be going into the scalp.

ETA: If I were Jon I would have asked for them to call it, if he was hemorrhaging like that on me.

I've seen two blogs from fighters in the house and both commented that Kimbo is a legit fighter. He may not win it all but I doubt he is getting respect from these guys if he was rolled up in his first fight.

I'd be very surprised if Kimbo gets a wrestler or BJJ guy in his first fight. Rampage might pick him against another stand up guy in the next fight if he really cares about keeping him alive. Well, I know Dana does so good chance of that I think. Kimbo gets rolled up in his second fight I think.

I heard that Kimbo gets eliminated from the show early. I'm glad it wasn't last night. Him and Ramp will definetly help ratings.
