Watching Mir as a coach on TUF I didn't like him. But his last few fights impressed me minus the Lesner fight. I'm actually rooting for Mir to take the W over Carwin. I really want to see him fight Lesner again.

But hes only had one fight since losing to Brock
And that was not impressive at all, that was a easy fight to pick. He hasnt proven he deserves anything imo............

The Strikefarce Saga Continues.. 
So the word is, Fedor and the M-1 Leeches aren't too happy with Strikeforce and feel SF hasn't honored their end of the contract they all signed. Translation: Those bloodsuckers want more money. So M-1 pulled Feddy from the April card (vs. Werdum) and are now talking about Fedor fighting for another promotion all together and only appearing on a SF card through co-promotion.
Co-Promotion!?
Well let's see. Options: PRIDE FC is dead. IFL is dead. EliteXC is dead. M-1 and Fedor already successfully ruined Bodog Fight and Affliction. Now they're having problems with Strikeforce (who have a co-promotion deal with DREAM). M-1's demands are too ridiculous for the UFC to deal with those morons. SO.. whose left for M-1 and Fedor to steal from!?
Guess they're trying to recoup the loss of all the money they were stealing from Mousasi (who finally smartened up and LEFT M-1).
And what does SF do to fix this situation? Yeah.. they're trying to set up Overeem (He's the SF HW Champ that hasn't defended the title since winning it over 2 years ago/has since been destroying cans in Japan instead) against....
BRETT ROGERS.
Wait.. what!?
AND IT'LL BE A NON-TITLE FIGHT.
Wait.. WHAT!?
So Overeem hasn't defended the HW title OR fought in Strikeforce for over 2 years and his first fight back is non-title AND against the guy who lost to the guy everyone wants to see Overeem fight!?
Great.
Also, Arlovski signed with Strikeforce. He's expected to fight Antonio Silva in May.

Yeah all the Fedor drama is getting old. I love Fedor hes an awesome fighter but I would like to watch him fight more than once a year. M1 seems to mess up everything. I see Fedor back in Japan before long.
As for Overeem...thats total BS. Strikeforce should have stripped his title a long time ago. I hope Brett kicks the $#it out of him.

always loved this one:
Tim Sylvia focused too much on his height and reach advantage. He thought he was unbeatable... apparently he isnt.

No I meant "what happened" as far as money.
UFC - Timmy made like $100,000 per fight with a potential $100,000 Win Bonus + undisclosed money (locker room bonuses, PPV cut!?)
Affliction - Timmmmmmmmaaayyyy made $800,000 for 36 seconds of embarrassment and hilarity at the hands of Fedor.
There's no way the Timanator is made anywhere near that for his last two fights with Adrenaline MMA. And I doubt he'll make anywhere near that for this next fight. It's obvious the UFC doesn't want his goofy ass back. Haven't heard about Strikeforce pursuing him. There's been rumors of him fighting in DREAM or Sengoku. But as of late, the only thing concrete is he's been reduced to fighting at little rinky-dink shows like an amateur.

PALPATINE CRUSADER!!!!
You know what, for that much money if they covered the medical bills...I'd take a beating from Fedor for $800k.

Meh. Maybe if Tim hadn't been such a ****** in the UFC people would actually like him, and big promotions would want him.

Yeah.. he really burned that bridge. The UFC actually wanted to resign him. But for the same pay. Timmmmmmayyy chose to leave for Affliction (i.e. the competition) and "bigger paydays" instead. Saw how that worked out for him. There's a lesson in that.

Its official, boxer James Tony signs a multi-fight deal with the UFC. This is going to be interesting...a glorified kimbo with better hands and no ground game. I wll give him that hes an exciting boxer...well at least I like to watch him fight, just my opinion though. Not sure how hes going to fair in the UFC, especially considering he talked smack on the grappling arts.
How old is he now? If you cant wrestle or have good jiu jitsu, you wont get very far in this sport. It's practically a prerequisite
