Loving Lightweight. I can see me playing the lower 3 weight classes the most on this game by far. In Pride mode. FW's and BW's in Pride mode is gonna be fucking brilliant.

 

I'm a bit disappointed they left Joe Stevenson in yet guys like Lauzon, Etim, Barboza, Stephens and Stout never made it but I'm really pleased the WEC guys, G-Sot, Jim Miller and fucking Gomi are in this time :)

"I hate fighting people who are scared," Jackson told ESPN. "When you fight somebody who is scared, you never know what they're going to do. They turn and run."

Another load of shit from Rampage. The only running Jon Jones did was straight through him. And of the two, I'd say Jackson was the one fighting scared, since it became apparant about two minutes in that he didn't have a fucking chance.

Hong Man Choi has been arrested for assaulting a woman

 

South Korean mixed martial artist Hong Man Choi has become the latest fighter in trouble with the law after being booked for assaulting a woman.

 

The seven foot two inch star of K-1, Dream and Pride FC supposedly punched a woman in the face after an altercation in a bar he owns in South Korea. Apparently the woman refused to pay a tab she had ran up, after it became more expensive than she initially thought.

 

An altercation then started, with the woman telling police that Choi struck her.

 

Witnesses have stated that the woman was heavily intoxicated and was verbally abusive towards the kickboxer/mixed martial artist, and not only made derogatory comments regarding Choi’s parents but also threw a glass at him. The witnesses also stated that Choi only pushed the customer.

 

Speaking on his blog last night, Choi said

 

“She verbally insulted me. I just could not take it anymore. I just pushed her a little bit. I swear that I never punched her.”

 

“If I am lying, I will quit my career as a K-1 fighter.”

 

Hong Man Choi is also considering taking legal action himself to clear his name.

 

More on this when we have it.

I'll wait to hear more but I don't believe he hit her. If a man the size of the Techno Goliath punched a woman in the face she'd probably be dead or at least knocked into a neighbouring country. Unless the woman was Jo Brand or something, she'd probably put up a good fight. He does admit he 'pushed her a bit though' and fuck knows what damage he could do with a push.

Is that his bird in the pic? Seriously he must deeeestroy her in the sack. Look at them fucking hands, his fingers are bigger than my penis. Holy moly.

I'm a fan of Rampage but that is shite. He's one of the worst in MMA for lame excuses for losses. If that was Jones fighting scared I'd hate to see what he'd have done to Rampage if he was really pissed off.

To be fair, he never directly referenced Jones, even though it does seem that way from what's been written. Jackson is a limited MMA fighter, but an exciting one if matched correctly.

 

He's just not an elite level fighter in 2011, simple as that.

 

I can't quite explain just how excited I am to see Tank Abbott fighting again. It's been far too long since I've seen the fat moron punched in his stupid head.

Well, don't watch the fight then. Abbott is the man, and badmouthing him just simply isn't on.

Those posters are great!!

Just for clarification, I don't hate Tank Abbott at all, he's my favourite Heel MMA guy. A genuine "I love to hate that guy" situation. My dream MMA fight is Abbott Vrs Seagal.

 

I'm sure this next fight won't happen. There'll be some excuse, probably the promoter doing a runner of one of the fighters getting "injured during training".
