Who was the disrepectful little prick in Penn's corner? Gabe was hired by Joe Silva because Lauzon's original opponent got injured. Replacements happen all the time, buddy. Why do I feel like you condescend to people, every time you answer their question. If I'm wrong here, then there's egg on my face, but you tend to sound like a prick in some of your responses.You've only just noticed?

I think everyone in this board can't post something without another member critizing/correcting/making fun of it. I'm not saying we all critize, but like, before this, I posted that "I see Edgar easily beating Penn". I was told I was wrong. I said I believe Chael Sonnen would destroy Silva, and he did that. He did lose, but he did beat on him (as Silva did back). I think we all should just realize everyone has oppinons and just move on.

I'm so awezommmee1!!!1!" And no, I meant, because I picked a fighter I thought would win, I got critized for how dumb the decision was and look at who won. And I do agree with your last statement.

So, Iam not allowed to hate Nate Diaz and dislike him and talk about it. I thought we had the right to free speech? You can hate his attitude or whatever, but I am seeing too much hate on him as a FIGHTER. He has proven time and time again that he is worthy of fighting in the UFC.

Sorry you feel that way, sir. Gabe DID do some serious impressing. He was on a 6 fight win streak (all finishes) and the last guy he beat was undefeated. That's what fighters do to get back into the UFC. Which is something you could've told me to begin with, as I obviously didn't know. But you'd rather be an a**hole know it all instead. I just don't understand why you have to be such a tool to anyone who doesn't "know" as much as you.

I never claimed to "know" as much or more than someone else. This information is easy accessible.

I never claimed to "know" as much or more than someone else. This information is easy accessible. That's not what I said either. We all know that you're crazy into MMA. Not just UFC, but MMA in it's entirety. I try to follow it, but usually only have time to check out what's going on in the UFC. I follow Strikeforce and Bellator as well when I can. So when someone like me doesn't know something, when someone like you answers the question, I don't expect to get talked down to while getting my answer. It happens all the time dude. Jus sayin'

Well then maybe if you don't know much outside of the UFC, maybe you should reserve your opinions until you have more info. Jus sayin'.

Listen guy, all you had to say was that he was on a six fight win streak with all finishes. That's ALL you had to say. And is it so crazy for me to think that he was still a scrub after getting Mack Trucked by Louzon? People shouldn't be made to feel like idiots just because they don't know something. But I'm sure you've never passed judgement on anything that you've only had immediate knowlege of right?

Not too often.
And, you're right. Maybe I shouldn't have said anymore than that and for that, I apologize, happy?
He just got beat by someone who was better than him, and that was Joe Lauzon.

Lol at your apology. I wasn't even asking for one dude. I was just telling you how I felt. I actually like you alot as a poster. I rely on your knowlege and opinions quite a bit because I know that you have your toes in the game(so to speak). I just really hate it when people talk to me like I'm a child who said a bad word. Shouldn't have called you a name, but I was pissed. My bad.

You can hate his attitude or whatever, but I am seeing too much hate on him as a FIGHTER. He has proven time and time again that he is worthy of fighting in the UFC. Fair enough. Although, he could not stop Maynard from laying on him for three rounds. His attitude during that fight showed he did not know how to deal with it. So, it is not to crazy to think the same thing could happen again. Also, just has a little side note. I think you really need a great attitude to fight in MMA period. Having the skill and the talent is only part of proving you're worthy of fighting in the UFC. I think you need to have a positve attitude to match your talent and skill. Take Josh Koshcheck and Paul Daley for example. Nate does have better attitudes then both of them TBH.

He does have a positive attitude. The issue with Maynard is that he really believes he won the fight. He did throw the more damaging strikes, and maybe if he was a little more aggressive, he would have won. Hell, even one judge saw it in favor of Diaz.

I was there, I was very let down by the fight. Manyard did nothing but lay on him. Nate got pissed because that is all Manyard did.
Who guys have to train Frankie hard so he beats Maynard this time. I really can not stand him. He is like the Jon Fitch of 155. Please grant my request, I will not be buying that fight because of Manyard not because of Frankie.
You have no idea how hard I was pulling for Frankie to win.
Infact.. I have a UFC event poster...anyway I could get Frankie to sign it?

That fight spent probably 20% time on the ground. Maynard was just more aggressive with his striking, but Diaz landed the better shots. It's all how you see things.
I don't think he would mind signing it. I could give you the address to his training center and he'll more than likely sign it and send it back.

I was second row at my first UFC event. I tried to pay attention..but..there was so much going on...So, what I remember is Maynard laying on him. Maynard seems like he can not finish people though.

Maynard tries more to not lose than he does to win.

Fitch is kinda different though. Fitch is probably the most boring, yet most amazing fighter ever. It's crazy how he's able to negate his opponents offense all the time.
