I had to answer this one cos it's so funny & i've never heard a funnier rumour! None of what you say is true! Taker got beaten in the 1st blood match v Kennedy at S/Series last Sunday. Under the terms of his contract he can wrestle when he wishes. He's the unofficial S/Down spokesman by the way and helps behind the scenes also. I wouldn't expect him back til  the next ppv later this month - December to dismember. Probably in a tag-team with Kane.

Ok heres the thing, when Edge WON the belt, EVERYONE was PISSED and wanted to see Cena get it back. 2 weeks later Cena got it back...and Edge get a LEGITIMATE reason to be in the HUNT for the belt. In the wrestling business...there are 2 positions you want...CHAMPION...or TOP contender. Edge is a top contender now and ONLY him having a bad performance can screw it up. I do NOT see that happening anytime soon. He will have the belt again soon enough, but be happy he is in the HUNT.

Yeah that was kind of silly but there is probably one guy who spent a thousand dollars making the graphics for the background of the punch stat board that needed justification or something. Thats the third devastating body punch I saw end a big money fight in the last couple years. Hopkins/De Lay Hoya and Ghatti/Dorin. The latter actually put Dorin in retirement too

It looks like the WBA came up with the idea, although I don't know if it was a single individual or not.  From the description below (courtesy of wikipedia) it looks like it was a way for the WBA to 1) recognize an exceptional boxer, 2) create marketing hype for boxing, and 3) to make extra money by charging world title sanctioning fees for classification of champion.\n\nWhen a boxer holds the WBA title and also holds a world title (in the same weight division) from another major sanctioning body (the WBC, IBF, or WBO), the WBA gives special recognition to the boxer. If the boxer holds the WBA title and one other title, he is recognized as the unified champion. If the boxer holds the WBA title and two other titles, he is recognized as the undisputed champion. If the boxer holds the WBA title and all three other titles, he is recognized as the super champion. (Middleweight Jermain Taylor was the most recent super champion.) There can be only one unified, undisputed, or super champion per weight division. The main reason for these classifications is that when a boxer gains more titles, the WBA allows more time between mandatory WBA title defenses.\n\nWhen a boxer becomes unified, undisputed, or super champion, the WBA creates a second world title in the same weight division. Two other boxers then fight for the vacant 'regular' world title. This second title allows the WBA to charge world title sanctioning fees for what is, in effect, an interim title. Additionally, if a unified, undisputed, or super champion loses his non-WBA title(s) (without losing the WBA title), then the WBA will strip him of his WBA title.

I don't know what going on with Scott Harrison recently he seems to have lost the plot. I can't see him being mentally ready to fight on December 9th and its probably in his best interests to not fight and be stripped of the title. Nicky Cook is no joke and i would favour him to beat Harrison at his best even though it would be close, but if they fight on the 9th i think Cook will win easily due to Harrison not being mentally or physically ready.

How can you even compare the two? It's like cofusing class with trash. Ali was a BOXER Tyson is an animal.  So I say obviously Ali\n\nThe Champ is here!!!!

I think that they were both 'overrated.' I think Lennox gets a raw deal because he wasn't a flashy heavyweight. He was a big guy with skills that never amounted to being one of the greatest in my opinion. Lennox never really lived up to the hype because Tyson was jailed during Lennoxs' prime. Now, if they fought during the prime of their careeers, different story. But instead we have a boring Lennox making Mcall cry, barely beating Klitscko, and getting bit by Tyson during a conference. Razor on the other hand,  how can you be overrated when you're not even a blip on the screen. I remember Razor as one of those cats who had a really dazed and confused look when he lost. And he lost often. 7 or 8? And he never eally beat anyone in their prime. So? two Canadians on the same boat, different circumstances.

i think they do. i hate to think that the UFC is going or will go the "WWE" route. (Let's keep it real fellas) Anybody who watched "The Ultimate Fighter" felt the extreme animosity between these two. Shamrock is a complete fool. I never thought that Tito would end up displaying more maturity than Ken. How can he possibly think he can beat Tito? Does he even remember the last time?

Cuz true fans don't appreciate the fact that he has been champ for so long while he doesn't have any ring skills. This kid was pushed tooooooo fast. He should be working the IC Title right now if you ask me. True fans want to see more of the Vets in the main event. Plus Cena just has a crappy finisher.

The UFC stands for Ultimat Fighting Championships.\n\nThis promotion puts two combatants into a ring surrounded by a cage .  the two fighters are trained experts in thier chosen field of martial arts..  Any and All martial arts are invited to participate in these matches.. So you can have a Kung Fu grand Master fighting a heavyweight boxer.  Or a master brazilian jujitsu master go up against Sumo Wrestler. Or a 16 th level grand master in tae kwon do like Chuck Noris go up against Mr Miyagi from the karate kid! lol Just kidding.. but I hope you get the idea.\n\nits popular because you can have any martial arts master go into the ring and show his stuff off and prove his martial art is the best in the world.  also.. you see somebody get their @$$ whupped!

Holy crap... never thought anyone would ever talk about Lennox Lewis... I, too am a fan of Lennox and think that in his prime, he would make the current crop of heavyweights look ridiculous (well, most of the heavyweights out there do a pretty good job of making themselves look ridiculous)... however, he was commentating a recent fight (Mayweather vs. Judah) and I thought age had caught up with him pretty quickly... I have no doubt he could win a belt or two, but I would rather he stay retired so I can remember him as the dominate champion of his time... as far as a rematch with Klitschko, that would mean he would have to give up his political dreams to come back to fight... although Lennox got as good as he gave during that fight, I was proud of him as most observers questioned his heart and chin during his career. He answered a lot of questions concerning both during that bout.

Each governing body - IBF, WBC and WBA has their own champions. Sometimes they fight unification bouts and one fighter will hold two, or even three of the titles. This creates problems for the bodies, because it then means less title fights and thus less revenues from sanctioning fees.\nTo overcome this problem, they put this cynical policy in place, that further complicates a sport already too complicated with too many 'champs',  that if a fighter is a unified champ, he becomes their 'Superchamp', and the title he holds is then up for grabs, and the person who wins it is then their 'champion'.\n\nConfused? Not half as much as I am.

The fight was boring considering the match up, especially because Alistair is a semi-flamboyant fighter (muay thai/shooto).   I, like you, was a HUGE Vitor fan when he came out.  He threw down like nobody I've seen.  But as we know, a fighter needs to be more well rounded and I think he lacks the overall ability to dominate each fight even with his BJJ training.  A fighter always falls back on what they know (original competitive background-i.e., wrestling, boxing, etc.) and boxing isn't going to cut it.  He seems to be fighting without either confidence, heart, motivation; or a combination of all previously mentioned.  I don't know if we will see "The Phenom" again, but I sure hope so!

WTF? Are all of those people stupid? Fedor is ridicously fast for his size, he is fast or even faster than many light weights out there. Also what are all those crap "Secret illegal techniques" everyone is talking about? So far no one will dare to answer those questions.\n\nbeside that if someone beat other person under rule, that person will also win the fight in street 99 out of 100 time. beside as guy above me describe, if Lee got taken down and ground and pound, Lee better have really good insurance company. It's harder to avoid take down than avoid strikes especially if you don't know much about grappling.

Fight fan I already gave you my thoughts on Rampage vs Lindland contest but you see, these previous two answers are exactly what I'm talking about. Most people here (just like these two motherf******) are totally ignorant of MMA. They've seen two UFC fights and all of a sudden they are all big experts and they all know how UFC is so great and so much better than Pride, how Pride fighters suck etc. etc. etc.... and basically what they know and say is bulls***. UFC has some excellent fighters, no question about that, but it is also so incredibly overrated and that's why I don't really like it.\n\nP.S.\nJust a reminder: as we have already established, on July 22. Rampage is going to break The Law (most likely that is).
