The kid is a good fighter, I'm not saying he's not, but to say he was kicking ass in the division is a bit of an overstatement. He has improved quite a bit since then, but not enough for me to believe he can beat GSP.

I never said he was kicking ass in the division at the time.
I also dont think he beats GSP. I think he's a favourite over Fitch and Alves though.

You didn't say he was kicking ass, you implied it by saying he walked away from the UFC for big money elsewhere...when in reality he left 'cause he was getting his ass handed too him and needed to go get better against lesser competition. Which is exactly what he did. His biggest win since then was Gomi, which was then taken away because he thinks he's Cheech. I don't care what people do in there own time, but if you know EXACTLY when you're going to be tested, and you know that a positive will strip you of your money and a win...then fucking don't do it.

[FNH]

time for jens to hang it up...such an awesome guy too, sad to see him lose like that.

I don't think getting caught in a guillotine beckons retirement.

I'm pretty sure he has said he smokes up until 1week~ or so before every fight and just gets products that give him clean tests to pass.





Dikun pulls off a quite impressive flying triangle and is only a whitebelt I think.

He said after the last fight that he smokes up 'till the night before 'cause it helps him "relax". I honestly don't believe that he does, he just thinks it makes him sound cooler. Maybe he'll grow up soon and realize his potential.

WTF at the double flying knee by Aldo...didn't see that shit coming...'course, neither did Cub.

@FNH: One guillotine doesn't, but 1-4 in the WEC and even admitting it's probably time for retirement does.

[noblemountain]

I'm pretty sure Faber broke his right hand...this isn't going to end well.

[tyven]

he was slapping with his left for the last two rounds, both hands probably broken. fucking sucks faber had to fight for 3 rounds with broken hands, hope they schedule another rematch right away

[Blarg]

It's a shame he broke his hand too as the fight went a bit one sided after that. I really can't remember who won the first 2 rounds but if faber had them then the hand really turned the fight around.

[tyven]

i think they split the first two, after that it was over

[Blarg]

He broke it in the first, really shitty luck.

[noblemountain]

He broke it in the first, really shitty luck.

Brown really showed some amazing cardio and great wrestling...I was impressed. It really sucks Faber broke his right hand in the first round...I think the left hand broke early in the 4th...maybe late 3rd. Amazing that he was able to keep going and not get finished.

[Brill Weave]

I'm not convinced Brown's cardio was that fantastic last night. I mean let's be honest, he was fighting a guy with a broken hand. He doesn't exactly have to kill himself defending against him. Faber looked completely and totally gassed by the end of the fight though. Sucks that what should have been a fantastic rematch ended up coming up a little flat because of just plain bad luck.

And holy fuck at Aldo. I was so fucking happy he took out Swanson so quick and brutally. Swanson just pisses me the fuck off. The guy does nothing save run his mouth off. He shot his mouth off on Pulver who promptly submitted him. He shot his mouth off on Aldo who promptly broke his face in the first exchange. Maybe next time you should keep your mouth shut until you can back it up Cub.

[Brill Weave]

Wow. That's a hell of a break. Can you link where you got the picture from Tyven so I can forward it to the wifey. She loves Faber. And by the looks of it, we won't be seeing him out there for a while.

[Brill Weave]

Gracias. Sucks for the WEC. I'm sure they would have loved to get him back in there as soon as humanly possible. That looks bad enough that it may require some pins.

[tommygunnz]

Ive always liked Faber, i still remember his retarded superman punch attempt before Griffin put him to sleep. His wacky fight style is great and all but against some brick houses it obviously has no effect.

Im sure some have seen it, but really cool story from him haha.

and lol at all the retards on these forums who made fun of me for having it and didnt know who the fuck the guy was in my sig forevor and a long time ago. Now everyone is on the Nick Diaz bandwagon sucking his dick.

Kid's always been the real deal, considered myself his number 1 fan ever since i saw him get beat by Diego Sanchez a loooong time ago. Time and time again he has proven he is easily one of the baddest fuckers in the world.

[tyven]

sorry man, ive liked diaz since he knocked robbie lawler out, looks like i win the longest fan contest. now it is you who may suck a dick

[Day]

It's ok if someone else likes the same fighter you do, I don't think you get any kind of special ribbon for liking him first last time I checked. (This is the first time I checked.)

[tyven]

are you sure day? cuz i mean, we are all supposed to be sucking dicks right now since we didnt have him in our sig.

im sure plenty of people noticed you had nick diaz in your sig tommy, but im even more sure that no one wanted to talk to you about it because you are such a douche bag
