Yeah, I have HDnet and watch the WEC, and Sincaid thorougly beat Irvin. Southworth was winning the fight that was deemed a NC.

I agree the prelims. have been weak lately, but I don't understand UFC's justification for keeping some fighters around and dismissing others.

I know its hard to believe but Dana is wrong, those arnt the best cards of the year each time...and UFC 65 isnt the best card of the year.

Sorry to break it to you but Pride isnt folding in 6 months either and the PPV with Tito and Dana didnt even sell 10k...sorry mate

Wait a minute you saw Strikeforce on HDnet? when did this happen? And the fight was only about 15 seconds and bobby didnt land a punch...he said fight they clinched then bobby pushed him into the cage and they fell over cause they didnt close it right away they were still trying to close it and they fell on the guy who was closing it so it wasnt longer than a 15 sec fight


* I agree I dont understand either why Dana keeps some guys and not others, only thing I can think of is Money, but I will say James the sandman is good enough to be a prelim fighter in the UFC right now with the cans they have had in the last few shows

I saw him get his ass whooped by Lodune Sincaid at WEC, and Mayhem handled Lodune Sincaid easily. Irvin is just there to fill up the card.

dude...the no contest was for the cage door coming open during the opening seconds of the fight. it was no one's fault and there was no fight to judge. you can't just check the fight finder and think you know everything. he's had some tough submission losses, but when he can keep it up, obviously he's a vicious striker. clearly needs to work on the ground game though.

He loses a fight to Sincaid and now he isnt good enough to fight in the Prelims?

Have you not seen the cans the UFC has put out in the Prelims?

Okay so James beat up Scott Smith should he not fight in the Prelims either then? and if you think like that does that mean Since Scott Smith beat up TAIT FLECHER and LEVEns they should not be in the Prelims either

the sandman is 11-3 cut him some slack at least you have hear of the guy, i havent heard of some of this prelims guys in the last few UFCs
