Let's try this again.
Welcome ladies and gentlemen to your daily bag of goodies. Just a heads up, I may try writing more on a weekly basis. While my motivation for writing is there, It's just hard to find the time to do it nowadays. Nonetheless, I'm writing today and it's only a few days after my previous entry. I'm working on opening up a twitter account for myself because I REALLY want some feedback and comments. I'm not sure if your too lazy to put a few down below in the " comments" section below or you just agree with everything I write:) So expect that in a few days and I'll be sure to give you my @username.
*UPDATE*
You can now follow me on Twitter. @MMAManiac2.....Thanks.
Dan Henderson
I'm not sure what the situation is here or why Hendo doesn't have a fight scheduled. Apparently Dana doesn't know "what to do" with him. I call bullshit and I think it's disrespectful. I'm not taking ANYTHING away from Rashad because he deserves the fight too, but he also has more time left as a fighter. I honestly believe that Hendo should've been given Jones before Rashad out of respect. Hendo isn't getting any younger at 41, but still provides an entertaining performance every time against "top ranked" competition. Approximately 61% of Atlanta's population is African-American and it's probably a wiser business decision to have two African-Americans in the main event. I may be walking on thin ice here even bringing this up and this isn't going to turn into a racial blog by any means. This may not even be a factor, but it sure won't hurt marketing in the area for ATL and UFC. Speaking of UFC in Atlanta, theres no WAY IN HELL I'd ever pay that much for the tickets. I'd much rather spend a few hundred bucks for two tickets to a kick-ass concert than several hundred for one UFC ticket with just decent seats. Please argue with me, if you feel differently, but unless you have money growing out of your ass to afford it, I just can't in this economy.
5- Rounders
This is old news , but I'm very happy that all main events have been given 5 rounds. This is very beneficial for lightheavys and below. I could see it being a disaster for some heavyweight bouts, given they go the distance and there is no KO. Most of them are gassed by the third round anyways, which is completely understandable. Yay!
Dana White/Hacking
Also a bit of hold news, and it seems to have fizzled out since the last time I checked. We live in a very dangerous age where one's privacy and friends are completely exposed over the internet. I'm just a guilty as the next person when I enjoy my social networking and it's all going to come to a head one day. I'm not sure how legit that info really was, but most of it you could've found out from any biography page or through a background investigation. Now, the hacking of the UFC.com was on a grand scale and I'm sure there are people out there who can do much worse and will some day. We will be the victims.
UFC Undisputed 3
I'd be lying if I didn't say that it isn't the best MMA game to date. An outstanding roster and the implementation of PRIDE makes this game a worthwhile purchase. I was glad to see these improvements made from the faulty UFC 2010 and they actually took their time polishing this one and not going all "EA" on it by releasing a cash cow ever year. There is still a learning curve to the controls and the tutorial is fucking insane to sit through, not necessarily a fun experience. However, once you get the bulk of controls down, you'll be good to go. Story mode can still be tedious, but once you will a couple of fights with your CAF it can be satisfying. Once I play through more of the game modes I'll try to post a few more of my opinions on it. MMkay?
-Just a side note, COD:MW3 absolutely sucks BALLS., this was the first COD I didn't buy in years because I played it at a friend's house and the online was absolutely chaotic, if not more than Modern Warfare 2. Blacks Ops really cleaned up the mess that MW2 left behind and a lot of people were pro-Infinity Ward since the awesome MW1, but then I tended to lean more towards Treyarch over the years. Ugh, Off topic I'm sorry.
-That's about if for me today. Once again, check back in a few days and I should have my Twitter going as I'd love to discuss and debate a few things. I'm not much of a forum poster, however I do read some of the ridiculous/insightful/laughable comments from you. I hope you guys have a great weekend and thanks for reading!
