Stupid sexy Flanders is starting to take over.

Looks like Dunk had it set to wh*re.

Yeah it was announced a while ago. Gets the same reaction now as it did then... <insert fart noise>. BJ should have hung up the gloves a long time ago.

While I understand why the CFL did this, I'm not a fan of Dunk getting removed. It's not like we don't get his stuff through other outlets though so in the end it's really a moo point.

Are you suggesting that I should not have bought a revitalizing tonic from this man?

13? I'd love 13 since they only do 10 GOT episodes a season and they are even cutting that down starting next season!

1st sentence in her post is trying to win tickets for the Argos game. https://www.facebook.com/VirginRadioWinnipeg/photos/a.217193861742319.48232.217186425076396/950409938420704/?type=3&comment_id=950484911746540&comment_tracking={"tn"%3A"R"}

Both. Apparently he is getting picked on for the way he talks & the area he grew up in and he's sensitive about it.

I would say they can find what they are looking for if it actually happened the way she says it did. http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/football/bombers/Bombers-are-watching-you-206741481.html

My guess at reading between the lines is that things did not go down as she said she did. If they did, the Bombers could simply say that video confirmed her story. They'll take the high road though and just let the story die.

Lashley has been fighting since 2008 and has a fight for Bellator next month. He's fought more than any other name wrestler, I think he's 14-2 now? Even though he's probably got the best background next to Brock (2 time NAIA national champion) he's just a can crusher.

He's said that before... but he's also said he doesn't go to the bar much but he sometimes goes to pubs? I wouldn't put much stock in what he has to say.

They won't go that route but if they did, they wouldn't even need to go overseas. The UFC put this fight in Ohio for a reason and Texas approved the weight difference between Gracie & Shamrock so they would probably approve that one too! There are a few commissions that kind of do their own thing and are usually avoided like the plague (if you noticed, none of the well known refs like Big John or Herb Dean worked 203 because of Ohio's reputation).

Did you even read the article you linked?

Well that article only says he appears in the movie & the main villains will be the Reavers & Weapon X so this might just be their way of introducing him and then having him in a bigger role in future movies.

They've had 2 sub 300k PPV's in the last year. 201 (Woodley vs Lawler) had 240k & 192 (Cormier vs Gustafsson) had 250k. There was a 3rd (195 Lawler vs Condit) that was right on the 300k mark so the actual numbers could have been less. The early estimates for 203 are between 650-800k. If the predictions hold true for the 203 numbers, then I don't think you can deny Punk had a huge affect on that. Even Meltzer says he under estimated the wrestling crowd and that's his business. The problem for the UFC is that it's a one time bump and with Punk's performance, it won't happen again so how do they keep those numbers going? Outside of Rousey & McGregor, nobody is pulling in those kinds of numbers.

Punk also didn't make a great choice in training camps. He should have gone somewhere more well-rounded. Duke Roufus is a great striking coach but wrestling (or even just takedown defense) is not what they are known for. Duke, it would seem, knew Punk wasn't ready but basically shrugged his shoulders and said why not let him live out his dream?

Toney also trained very little (if at all) for that fight... Punk had been training for 2 years for his fight.

100% not a dive. Just a guy who had no business whatsoever being in there. Gall is a legit bjj brown belt while Punk would be a white belt and it showed. If you saw any of the footage of Punk sparring, his "technique" left a lot to be desired. This was going to be the result 10 out of 10 times. Training at a gym known for their stand-up and having wrestling as their kryptonite (see Anthony Pettis) didn't help much either. You are correct that James Toney also received 500k though. He also tapped before he took a beating while Punk took some solid shots before the choke.

I'll go with Messam.

Because this is said mob...

Casual fans or wrestling fans maybe... legit mma fans were watching because you had 4 of the top 8 heavyweights ( the 1, 2, 4 & 7 ranked fighters) all fighting on the same card.

I think he fits in just fine!
