  • suck it

    I don’t like edgar henderson new 2012 lightweight  champion

  • Brown Pride Mexican king

    rampage will run through this piece of shit

  • Brown Pride Mexican King

    why won’t ufc cut akiyama jake will come to his wining ways on ufc japan bitches and hoes

  • Shezzyray

    edgar what a fuckin twat hope he loses

    • Bear22250

      have a little respect!!!!

  • Shezzyray

    edgar what a fuckin twat hope he loses

  • Gsp

    i want to see jose aldo fight the winner of edgar vs henderson i think aldo would win 

  • Gsp

    if any of them want to try me come to canada i’ll beat them up

  • Gsp

    even anderson silva come on down time to make history diaz is a waste of my time i go forward not backwards

  • Igor_nunes10

    I like see Egar figting,because after the second and thyrd fight with Maynard i start to like him fight.But a totuh opponent to him is Aldo.

    • Brown Pride Mexican King

      their not in the same weight class and i don’t think thats a good opponent its gilbert melandez from strikeforce thats a better fight

  • Ed Lib

    From a main event to the preliminary card! too bad for Okami 

  • Royjonesjr

    hey did anyone watch the diaz &condit fight that bastard ran the whole fight who did he think he was dominic cruz . my god we pay good money to watch a fight not a race dana white ufc make it right if they want torun around the octogon shrink it thats what we do in cock fights. they run away we cut their necks . thats taking control of your fighters. 

    • RonVonDamn

      All brawn no brains huh? Condit fought a brilliant fight. He is an amazingly disciplined fighter. That right there was the difference between a fighter and a skilled fighter. Diaz can come forward all he wants if he’s eating strikes. Going forward like an idiot and being outscored is not the same thing as winning. 
      Condit FTW!

      • Brown Pride Mexican King

        listen motherfucker nick diaz won and the whole world nose it bitch so suck dick little pussy

        • Kidfunk_yo

          It’s people like you that gives MMA supporters a bad name. Condit fought to his gameplan structure every minute of the fight. What point is there in standing in Diaz’s pocket and getting slapped to death? If you think you’re so tough, you go and fight Condit and see what its like to eat a spinning elbow.

          • Brown Pride Mexican King

            maybe i should kick your ass i train mma i don’t think they let pussys like you in the gym cause youll get raped bitch

        • brown pride lol what a joke

          your a fucking moron hay

        • Bear22250

          You need glasses asshole
