    Bibi and Aoki to OneFC, seems they are doing a good job of scooping up some of the best free agents.

    UFC are a joke giving fighters like Bibi and Khalidov rediculous offers. If there are ranked fighters not in the UFC you think they would give them an offer they couldnt refuse...

    Id rather see all the top fighters signed to an event every 2 weeks with all these low ranked guys filling the spots.

    Channel 5 has picked up BAMMA apparently a repeat of Ninja vs Kong did over 500'000 viewers after the Rogan vs Fury fight and that was the catalyst for doing a deal. first card is in September and will be a live 2 hour broadcast on 5*.

    Talking of TV deals I seen an advert last night on ESPN which was looking forward to the new Season on ESPN blah, blah....The Interesting thing was as well as advertising Football, Rugby & ect there was also advertising future UFC events. Now Is this just ESPN advertising the UFC for the summer or a new deal ?.

    Maybe I'm looking too much in to this or what ?. Laughing

    I'm hoping that ESPN do continue their coverage like, it's pretty much the only reason that I got the channel in the first place.

    It's being reported that Kawajiri is close to signing with One FC.

    That would be a good fight for One FC to make if they could get Bibi to move back to FW to take on Kawajiri

    I don't know mate Cochrane is a pretty decent fighter he did beat Varner last year and TBH got rough decision against Vick on TUF I don't think Stevenson should retire yet I mean the 5 defeats have been against decent level fighters.

    There was quite a hilariously misinformed (at times) documentary on Trace Sports (SKY 460) last night on Shogun the interviews were done in France at some seminar after his fight with Dan Anderson and talked about The MMA and UFC Wrestling. Laughing It's worth watching though If It comes on again, though.

    Sonnen has gotten right into Silva's fight and thrown him off. Anderson is at his best when he's relaxed and enjoying himself. Fighting angry he's likely to make mistakes. Sonnen is taking the belt home to the mean streets of West Linn, Oregon.

    Chael Sonnen also says he thought if you tapped in the 5th you just lost the round.

    Sonnen is with Mike Dolce, he'll have no more than 10lbs of water weight to sweat out.

    And there you have the difference between cutting weight, and hiding below your weight class by dieting every day of the year and live in the sauna.

    Anyone watch the weigh ins there? What a bitch move by Silva that was!! Evil or Very Mad He struck him with his shoulder, may as well have punched him as far as im concerned. Sonnen has got into his head so much it's ridiculous.
