MMA News this weekend.....Crazy stuff....

Dana White and Tito Ortiz has made up this weekend and Tito is back in the UFC...

Affliction is out of the Fight Promotion business and are now again a sponsor of the UFC...i thought this would never happen again cause Dana and Tom hated each other.

I have my money on Ken-Flo. He's looked great in his last few fights and trains hard. More than I can say for BJ.

Forrest has a small chance, but I doubt he'll win. Silva hasn't been challenged in his last few fights. We know Forrest will charge like a bull at Silva which will probably lead to him losing.

Fedor is in the states and he has said that they can fly out to Vegas and start negotiations.....they only problem is that fedor management wants to include M-1 Global in the promotions for the UFC Fedor Fights and the UFC isnt going to have another organization logos in the octogon....Thats like you putting Dave and Buster signs on all the pool tables At the Play Lounge....

It seems Fedor and his management team want UFC to do a lot to sign him. They want UFC to sign some other fighters that Fedor trains with, and what Jhov said above. I don't think you'll see Dana bend on that one.

Dana is a buisness man.....By bringing Fedor over he will truly bridge the gap of East and West....This will put UFC over the top.....

And if Dave and busters wants to pay me enough.....I would surely do it....lol.....:splitspin...I still have the captive audience....:splitspin

Yes, he is a business man. But he also sticks to his guns. He already said he won't bring Fedor in with all of his demands. They are going to have to lighten up on the demands before Dana brings him in.

Yeah But Dave and Busters wont be paying you to put up the signs it wud be included in the contract LOL....I doubt the UFC is gonna do it. I think the most they will do is offer him whateva ridiculous amount of money he wants...and hopefully its for at least a couple of fights and not just ONE...

The UFC offered Fedor a 6 fight, 30 million dollar contract. That's 5 mil a fight
- The UFC offered Fedor an immediate title shot
- Lesnar/Fedor would be the biggest PPV in MMA history (we assume), and the UFC offered M-1 Global a cut of the PPV on top of Fedor's purse.
- Fedor was free to wear as many M-1 logoed items as he wished.
- The UFC also relented on allowing Fedor to compete in combat sambo.
Apparently, for good or bad, M-1 refuses to sign a deal unless the UFC agrees to co-promote.

How can they turn this down..... :supermad:

They want M-1 logo's in the cage and they want the announcers to say This fight is brought to you by UFC and M-1 Global..what kind of crap is that...M-1 just sits back and reaps benefits for a fighter that we dont even know is going to win :confused: that proposal is more than i thought the UFC would ever offer....
