If you have nothing to do with ******, then your an idiot for posting thier site as a source for anything, comsidering they get thier 'news' from forum rumors and educated guesses...although I guess you realise that now that nearly every post in this thread has ripped on ****** in some way.

Hint = when ****** 'speaks to someone close to the situation'. It means they logged on to a few forums, or MMAWeekly where they copy and paste thier rumors from.

If ****** reported that today was Saturday, I'd still check my fucking calendar before I believed them.

Could you show me where I said any of thier interviews are fake?

I can walk up to the Wolfslair with a video camera and ask for an interview for my MMA website, or call thier office and get a telephone interview for my MMA website.

There is a big difference between doing that and being a journalist...developing trust with contacts, being a quallified writer and researcher is far removed from ******'s copy 'n' pasting rumors and getting thier news from rumors and forums.

For someone who has nothing to do with the site, why defend it? Why not agree with EVERYONE else here and say "Yeah, its a pile of crap website, but I posted this anyway coz I hadn't seen it here"?

I posted it here cos i hadnt seen it elsewhere.

As for a pile of crap, thats your opinion.

MMA Bay started the initial rumour Brock Lesnar pulling out and it being bogus. This guy is obviously an ****** shill and should be banned.

MMA bay just copies what other legit sites post, and make up crap as filler.

...except its not just my opinion is it? Its everyone's opinion.


I guess if nothing else this is a lesson to NEVER use ****** as a source.

That said, I still think your an ****** shill. You account was created around the same time as the other ****** accounts that got banned....meh

***EDIT*** Also, consider *why* you hadn't seen it elsewhere....because real, legit MMA sites don't report forum chatter or general bullshit as news.

With the contacts that they have in the industry, don't you think that sites like Sherdog, SI, ESPN, MMAWeekly etc or even some of the reputable blogs might have mentioned this or the 'UFC 100: All Titles On The Line' stuff if there was even a grain of truth to it?

Think about it for a second..if ALL titles were on the line, then for at least two PPV's before and two PPV's afterwards there would be no title matches. Thats also provifing that all 5 champions and contenders were fit and ready to go at the same time.

Then take the Lesnar situation...this is being billed as the biggest main event in UFC history, and it probably will be in terms of the money it draws. If there was a chance that someone was injured, the UFC would have tabbed another top HW to step in, because calling this fight off would be ten times the disaster of Patric Cote dropping out of the Silva fight on a few weeks notice.

When Shamrock fought Ortiz for the first time, it was a well known fact that Chuck Liddel was training to step in if either man was hurt before the fight...he wasn't even supposed to fight Babalu, he was supposed to be a stand it. If Zuffa had a stand in for this fight, someone would know about it and it would be reported.

Common sense...works wonders!
