|  Lebens Post fight comments!!
I just got done watching the UFC.tv post fight interview with Chris Leben and my first reaction is this guy has been reading way too many message boards. He says that MMA fans are Flakey and are some frontrunning, ship jumpers! Now while this may very well be true, Who the hell does he think pays his bills? Anyone who ever puts themselves out there too the public whether it be on TV and in print has too understand they are going to be critized immensely and if they dont have the tough skin to handle it you should prolly find another line of work. I actually consider myself a Leben fan, but shit man you go calling out the fans like that and its going to be a short career for ya.

Don't worry Leben, the fans that left don't want to get back on just because your sloppy ass punch managed to hit some guy in the face.

Koscheck is lieing saying "he doesn't get on there much." what a bunch of BS!
i agree with Leben, MMA fans are flakey. i don't think he gives a rats ass "who pays his bills" and he wants loyal fans, just like any other fighter does. even after he got crushed by Silva, i was still a fan of his. and it doesn't really matter how sloppy his punches were. he survived and he won the fight with a picture perfect punch! that's how most KOs are anyways...people crack me up with their "lucky punch" crap...LMAO!
congrats Leben, you deserved the win! and credit to Santiago too, good fight.

Leben was telling the truth. Too many times when a fighter loses people immediately say he's shit. Apart from Fedor, and maybe Diego (  ) EVERYONE LOSES! It's apart of this sport. That shit get's real old quick. I wouldn't say I'm a Leben fan, but I don't hate him either. Hell now everyone is going to be saying that Karo sucks. :banghead:

I already said im actually a fan of Leben's, my only real point is that you shouldnt be bashing the people that pay your bills and that he is too thin skinned. Who gives a rats ass what people on the internet say about you when you are fighting in the fucking UFC! That goes for Leben and Koscheck.
ps. Im sure alot of the fighters in the lower leagues would love to be flamed daily on message boards.
