    No doubt he hasn't done himself many favors in regards to PR, but its not much worse than any other fighter out there, particularly the criticism he got before the DUI.

    The fans and media don't concern me as much as Dana White. Slamming a dominant champ for not taking a fight on short notice is insanity. Dana White needs to remember the brand matters more than he does, because lately he's been a out of control attention whore. More so than usual.

    That was Dana letting his emotions get the better of him. Even if he hated Jones for not taking that fight, it makes no business sense to publicly destroy one of your main PPV attractions, especially when the PPV business hasn't been as kind to the UFC as in years past.

    Frankie Edgar will be getting an immediate title shot when he drops to featherweight after all.

    Edgar has replaced Erik Koch in the UFC 153 main event and will face Jose Aldo, MMA Fighting's Ariel Helwani has confirmed. USA Today was the first to break the news.

    Koch reportedly was forced to drop out of the fight with an undisclosed injury.
    Koch had a weak claim to a title shot anyway, this is a much better fight.

    Aldo by (T)KO

    What about the Korean Zombie? he just won the title eliminator back in May.....crap, my bad, using logic and believeing what Dana says is totally my fault. Really, I guess I should only be surprised that they didnt stick Chad Mendes, Cody Mackinzie or Ian McCall in for that fight, you know since how Dana likes to give replacment title fights to guys in a weight calss below. $10 bucks says Chael called when he first heard about it and told Dana he could cut the weight with the help of Dolce, and another $10 bucks says Dana actually considered it.

    Ok, it's one thing to Pearl Harbor Jon Jones, but it's another to blame my boy.



    Blame everyone but yourself Dana. For a second there, I thought he was going to own up to the fact that his PPVs are scarce with drawing power.

    My instructor got his purple belt from the same academy Renzo received his, from Carlos Gracie Jr.

    This is one bad dude!

    If you haven't seen it, Renzo Gracie's documentary, Legacy, is a must watch.

    Love this matchup. I guess Palhares' knee injury wasn't as serious as originally thought? I still thought he was on the shelf for a year or so.

    http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/news...-in-Australia/

    Palhares vs. Lombard booked for UFC on FX 6 in Australia

    Today on Twitter UFC President Dana White announced an intriguing middleweight matchup between Rousimar Palhares and Hector Lombard. The bout will take place at the UFC on FX 6 event scheduled for December 14th in Australia
