Around SBN: Yankees Deny Rumors That Team Is For Sale

Rashad-rampage1

"I remember one other thing he [Rashad] was doing - he was punching me in my knee! It was weird because I had suffered a real bad knee injury in camp but we kept it secret, we didn’t say anything about it and we didn’t even tell the UFC."

"I told my doctor and that was it, he helped me out but I was going to back out of the fight. The only reason I didn’t back out was the fight had been so hyped and I didn’t want to disappoint the fans. Why was he punching me in the knee though? That’s kind of weird - did he find out about the injury? I don’t know. Its weird."

don’t think he did…he didn’t know how Rashad found out…but with Greg Jackson’s ears, he can probably pick up a WHOLE lot

This is such bullshit. There is no way he could have come into camp weighing as much as he did and drop all of the weight if he had to take off time for a “real bad knee injury”. If did drop all of that weight without having to be carried into the weigh-ins Anthony Johnson style, then Mike Dolce needs to up his rates because the man is a freaking wizard.

he got injured in the last couple of weeks or camp?

That would have been even worse from a cutting weight standpoint. His cardio would have also been horrible if he had suffered the injury towards the end of camp. In reality, his gas tank wasn’t that bad considering he essentially carried Rashad’s weight for almost the entire fight.

Keep crying Rampage, eventually someone might give a rat’s ass.

I think that what Rashad was doing to Rampage’s knee was part of King Mo’s “Cuban” style/thing. Just like when Mo fought what’s his face, he kept a low stance and used his lead hand to distract, then either came with the big overhand right or went for the takedown (this confusing opponents).

I used to be a fan of Rampage, but his whining, excuses, and bad breath jokes are so stale. When he got beat by Forrest and was all gracious in the cage afterward, and then later on said that Forrest wasn’t a real man and that Forrest knew he didn’t beat him, I was done with him. The idea that any of these guys going in and fighting MMA aren’t real men is just ridiculous and insulting.

Real men don’t act like a big cry baby and have a nervous breakdown because they lost a fight, then get all jacked up on Mountain Dew and try to destroy a city with a monster truck that has his own photo plastered all over the side of it. And that’s all I have to say about that.
