Another thing on the branding

It’s hard for people to get behind “Strikeforce” when they’ve been watching “ShoMMA” and “Saturday Night Fights”.

If only I could've been at that meeting

SF: “Mayhem Miller vs Jake Shields will get TONS of viewers! It’s a title fight, how can it go wrong??”
CBS: “Wow, with a name like Mayhem, I don’t see anything going wrong there. And it’s a title fight, so people couldn’t look away if they WANTED to!”

Finally Forrest is making some sense! Jose Aldo is could beat Fedor. Urijah Faber is going to be an appetizer.

by Lucas2 on Apr 21, 2010 9:23 PM EDT reply actions

Urijah Faber has pathetic striking. If you watch his footwork – it’s nonexistent. The balls of his feet never leave the ground ever. I think he only trains kickboxing (can’t even call it MT) and no boxing.
