Silva? Who?

 

[azurepred]

idk, isnt there some guy with a last name that starts with an S, thats Danas running buddy . We never see him, so i forget his name

 

[Devil_666]

Oh Joe Silva.. nah he's just the VP of talent and the match maker. The big balla's are The Fertitta's (43% each) Dana (9%) and that Sheik that invested millions/billions into the UFC and got a 5% stake in the company in return (2% from each Fertitta brother and 1% from Dana).

Joe Silva isn't ballin' like that.

 

[azurepred]

oh, i thought he was ballin too, well im sure hes living very comfortably at the least.

 

[Devil_666]

Yeah.. "VP of Talent" alone sounds like a $$$ position, plus he makes all the match-ups. So I'm sure he's making bank. Dudes watch is almost as big as him.

Can you imagine his pickup lines. "Yeah, I'm VP of Talent... and I see you have a ton of it on your chest and ass sweetheart".

"I wanna match up my weiner with your mouth honey."

"Head back to my place and I'll be tapping in no time"

Looks like Brock wants out of UFC. These rumours have beed floating around ever since the Cain Loss and WWE wanting him. I'm sure Dana will drop to his knees to change Brocks mind.

"According to Dave Meltzer of Yahoo! Sports/Wrestling Observer, Brock is currently looking for an "exit strategy" from the UFC.

Meltzer said on his radio show that the fight with Velasquez has changed Brock's attitude on fighting and he is at the stage in his life where he doesn't want to get injured. He's very well off financially and the business man in him apparently knows that it may be time to move on.

Meltzer also mentioned that Brock hasn't trained a single day since the Velasquez fight nor he has returned any phone calls to Dana or Zuffa about upcoming matches.

Dave pointed out if Brock was motivated, he would be right back in the gym training and bringing in new coaches with the goal of beating Cain yet he isn't doing that. He's hunting and hasn't even thought about his next fight. Lesnar apparently wants to do WrestleMania "badly" and will earn an estimated 2 million dollars for 30 minutes of work.

Everything is pointing towards Brock having one more fight and ending his contract. His head doesn't seem to be in the fighting game and it looks like it was just yet another successful business move."

 

[Devil_666]

It's just speculation on Meltzer's part and TBH is sounds like BS to me. Brock said BEFORE the Velasquez fight that he was going to be hunting and relaxing with his family i.e. taking a break afterwards regardless of the fight outcome. Not sure why that's surprising now!?

 

[NASEDO]

These rumours have been floating around, Spike and Dana wanted Brock and Mir to be the new coaches on TUF, but Brock turned it down.

It would make total sense for Brock to go back to the WWE just for the money alone. A million or 2 for 30 minutes at Wrestlemania, how can you turn that down??? Why fight in the UFC for less money and get your a$$ kicked. It makes total sense, but I know the UFC have tough contracts and they dont want to let him go.

Brock is a strange dude, I dont think MMA is for him. And I think he knows he's nowhere near the level of Cain as a fighter. Might as well quit.

[ArmoredFoe]

yeah i'll say it again that photo of brock after the cain fight, he looked like he wanted to kill himself. Lets face it love him or hate him he doesnt know how to take a punch and that wont change so it wouldnt surprise me if these rumors were true. I hope he does come back, but again wouldnt surprise me if he didnt.

 

[azurepred]

maybe he cant take a good punch, but i dont think he has ever been hit hard in the face in his whole life either. i dont think Brock came into the UFC with money on his mind. Him and his wife have made a ton of money in their wrestling careers combined, and hes made a ton up to this point in the few fights hes had. He seems like a really competetive guy, so im not sure, but i dont think he would leave. Imo, with the right training, maybe losing a little more weight, becoming faster and improving his boxing, theres no reason why he cant be champ again.

And that's another BS rumor. Why the hell would Lesnar be a coach!? He's only been in MMA for like 3 years. He would be "training" guys with more experience than himself. Think about that for a second and then hopefully you'll see how fake that rumor is.

Simple: He's already rich. Lesnar already makes millions with the UFC (he's made over 2 million for every PPV fight he's main evented INCLUDING the first round loss against Cain). Again, it's all speculation and rumor. Until I see HIM saying that he wants out and wants to do pro wrestling again I call BS.

Yup. Dude is the former champ, he's 1 to 2 fights TOPS away from another title shot. And he can improve, hell look at Josh Koscheck and Matt Hammil. Both those guys have drastically improved their stand up.

This was my first reaction to reading Nasedo's post. WTF business would someone with less than 10 professional fights have teaching/coaching?? I can see maybe having him come in as a guest coach for someone else because he is an incredible wrestler, but as a main coach I have a feeling the people on his team would mutiny after the first 2 weeks.

.

Why would Lesnar be coach????? Ratings. It would be the biggest season ever. He's a Division One Champ, ex-UFC Champ, and you say he don't have the experience or credentials to coach up and comers.
