Dana should think about non-belt fight event
I mean - give Fedor what he wants
Do you think White has much to lose?
So sick of hearing about affliction...they have had 1 effing event...wish they would go away already.

why would they give fedor what he wants? Fedor is not a success fan wise...
Pride, Bodog and Affliction....he hasn't made any of them money.
Spider Vs Chuck UFC 95 likely
"When the UFC returns to London, England, for a show at The 02, UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva (23-4 MMA, 8-0 UFC) could headline the event -- possibly in a non- le fight at 205 pounds against Chuck Liddell (21-6 MMA, 16-5 UFC).
The Sun, a reputable newspaper from the U.K., reported the possibility of the UFC 95 main event overnight.
However, neither fighter has been officially booked for the Feb. 21 event, and the Silva-Liddell fight is only being discussed a possiblity. "
Meh, that is a tough sell at this point. Chuck has lost 3 of 4 and looked really bad for the most part..
^I'm going to go ahead and say no wat at 95. Thats too big of a headliner for uk fans. But if true...UFC wants into the UK more than anyone thought.
Damn Poor Liddell the Spider would crush him!!!
It's a headliner in name only though isn't it Evan? I mean Chuck has looked awful of late. They'd have to dance around his poor performances a lot when selling that fight..
It's still a super fight…I would love to see it. Chuck may have looked bad recently but he's still Chuck. He's still a top LHW.
We the fans are very spoiled that we can have such a bad@ss who fights with such regularity.
Was it his fault they did not earn money of him?
Many real fans would like to see Fedor clashing with UFC champ, whoever it will be.
No its not his fault at all. But my point is why give into Fedor's demands...if he wants all the money and to not give up anything then leave him alone.
hehe
well not everything
I really don't think he is a top LHW anymore that is why i think it is a headliner in name only. He looked awful against Jardine, got KTFO by Rashad, Rampage you give him a pass because he's Rampage but i don't know. It's not that sexy to me at this point. One guy is at the top, the other is on his way out the door... But then again there are not that many big fights out there for Silva right now..
He's still top 10...you simply don't fall from grace that fast because of a rough patch.
He is exposed and done. I had been saying for a LONG time that its a miracle no one knocked chuck down. Dumb ass still throws his hands down and it was a matter of time before someone realized that and knocked him the out......like Rampage and Evans did.
The MMA Purists that recognize Fedor as the best Heavyweight in the world would love to see it but the thing is, the average person has no clue who Fedor is.. If the Randy fight had happened, the UFC would have had to really hype the out of it to get people to know Fedor. Ask the average person on the street who Fedor is and expect a lot of confused looks..
You seem to be ignoring the bulk of my argument for whatever reason...
I'm not ignoring it...I simply don't agree with and don't want to split hairs over it.
All i said was, It's not as sexy as it would have been even a few years ago, which is true it isn't...
Yeah ok I agree with that. LHW is no longer Chuck and everyone else. Thankfully.
I live in Europe
MMA average fans knows who Fedor is.
Are you talking about people in the street?
In poland many people do not know what MMA is.
When I say that I'm watching MMA they are likethen I say fights, they go uha, seeya
Do they know in States who Capitan America is>?
Its funny how DB refers to it as not sexy hahahah
Here is my point tell me what you think. I say it is tougher to market the fight.. The UFC promotes Silva as the unbeatable, Pd 4 Pd king of the sport.. They used to sell Chuck as the best 205 pd fighter maybe ever. Well not only is he not anymore but they'd likely have to dance around Chuck's recent crap performances.. GSP and Penn 2 is really sexy because both have been dominant lately, in their weight classes and they are big names. That is why i said Silva and Chuck is really a name only big fight.. But i could see it due to lack of options right now for Silva..
If it ain't got Riddum, it just ain't sexy..
The average person in the US has no clue who Fedor is, they still think Kimbo Slice is the face of MMA..I live in Europe
MMA average fans knows who Fedor is.

I still think they can easily sell it. He's still Chuck!
