Rumor Alert

Mmousasi did say he's interested in making the move to the UFC

I would love a Mo vs Rampage matchup. I'm sure you all remember that feud.

I PM King Mo on facebook and he said he has heard absolutely nothing about it.

That's interesting although I am not surprised. I broke the news that Zuffa were making the machida vs Davis fight weeks ago, but Davis was completely in the dark that this fight was taking place until yesterday...

Lawler definitely didn't pull the trigger in the end against Kennedy. In the final two minutes he was shell shocked or something because he just stood there waiting for Kennedy to shoot, and then couldn't even stop that.

That said there is no reason to believe he can't ghost Jardine early, Robbie does like to start off hard and heavy before he fades.

Yeah they are probably working on it behind the scenes first. King Mo really wants to fight Rampage though.

Dexter and Weeds might be enough to keep me around for another year... if that

Why would I pay for those? You guys pay for showtime for those?

M-1 FTW! Also ProElite to Showtime coming soon.

no, and probably wont after SF goes kaput. the reason i got showtime was SF

I got Showtime for SF and Dexter. Used to like weeds not so much anymore but I'll keep showtime for dexter, hopefully M-1 and Proelite don't suck to much.

ninja where all this juicey info coming from? What does the UFC plan on doing with all these extra contracts? The women's divisions?

I can't really tell you. Don't want the person to get in trouble. Like I said if Showtime doesn't want to extend their contract with Strikeforce( which is almost a forgone conclusion they don't), Zuffa will buy all the contracts of the fighters that interest them most and the company will fold up shop.
As for the Woman's divisions, Zuffa is really not interested at all in bringing them over.

Also forgot some matchups:

Jardine vs Lawler
Mein vs Smith

I'd rather have Mein vs Hardy. Show freak whats really good.

I thought Robbie was in counter puncher mode through out. Which is fine when u have a lead against an aggressive striker, but when u are down on the cards, and the other guy is willing to wrestle his way to a decision, it is time to go on the attack. Robbie never did.

Robbie vs Le, was about the only fight I was still interested in for Lawler under SF.

With a loss could Robbie get cut? And if so would Bellator be interested? Even with the losses he'd make for a better superfight headliner then the other guys that have been thrown Lombard's way.

I don't think he would be cut, unless it was about Robbie not wanting to take less money. But Scott Smith has lost 3 straight and he hasn't been cut yet. Atleast Robbie just fought for the title and then against the #1 contender.

well most of my "will he be cut?" thoughts are asked within the shadow of the SF headstone.


"will he make the jump to the UFC?" is prob the more appropriate question.

This is awful news for fighters if this really happens. Guys have a hard time fighting enough with the UFC roster as big as it is now.

SF shutting down is horrible for the fighters, that means theres the UFC and then the minor leagues... since Bellator is still a minor league IMO. If you don't cut it in the UFC you're pretty much making chump change.
