| This whole injuries thing....
Lately everytime a fight is announced i'm finding it hard to get excited about it because i just assume someone will get injured and a replacement put in. I mean its getting a bit out of hand, the whole main card at UFC 146 had changed by fightnight, the whole 151 event was cancelled, the UFC had to choose between to middleweights to fight Jones for the 152 event, Aldo and Rampage are now out of 153, etc etc.
Something needs to be done but i'm not sure what the answer is?

If only MMA were immortals.
But, the UFC would literally be a bloodsport then.

Black people cannot get injured... fact
they are simply scared or making an excuse.

Rampage is being called out on multiple sites as possibly faking the injury... wtf is that?
Im not going to lump everyone together, but a general theme around the MMA community...
GSP fights Alvez with Groin injury, Shields with Eyepoke=Heroic
Silva fights Sonnen with a cracked rib= Lie/Excuse
Shogun vs. Forrest 1/ Hendo vs. Shields= Injury caused poor performance...
Rampage vs. Bader= Excuse.
Yes... the race card has been pulled. |

Holy shit dude... | No, I think he said. Quinton is black thus he can not be injured. So he must be scared or just making an excuse not to fight.
Unless I completely missed some sort of hidden sarcasm that was being made. Quote:

Yes... the race card has been pulled.  | Oh, I see what you did here. You lumped everyone together. You should realize that a lot of people who don't post in these shit forum discussions, where accusations fly left and right without anything solid to back them up, probably aren't posting because they think it's complete bullshit or just don't even want to waste the time arguing over something like this. Open your mind a little man. Just because a few people post a bunch of shit, doesn't mean the general populace is following suit in their thinking.
