Ulysses Gomez and Uncle Creepy are excited about the announcement. Creepy vs MM and Joe vs Gomez, winner fights for the Fly Belt! Make that shit happen Dana!

Subject: Re: UFC on FOX 2 Press Conference Wed Dec 07, 2011 4:39 pm

I think Joe vs Dodson would be better. Gomez just lost to Montague not that long ago.

He has since went up and won the TPF BW strap. I think that fight was like 3 fights ago now? Gomez is back on track and the only reason he is at BW right now is TPF wants him there. But he said he is just waiting on the word from the UFC. Just said that the other day.
Dodson? Come on man, I got Gomez all day.

Actually funny enough I posted a tweet of Dodson and Uncle Creepy talking about how they would love to fight eachother, I think the tweet was from yesterday.

Have you seen the recent pics of Kenny? He must have heard about the Fly.

Were Michael and Chael going at each other ?

Subject: Re: UFC on FOX 2 Press Conference Wed Dec 07, 2011 10:42 pm

Bisping actually said this was his first time meeting Chael and that he was a really nice guy

Subject: Re: UFC on FOX 2 Press Conference Wed Dec 07, 2011 10:48 pm

Its almost amazing the responses Chael comes up with on the spot to some of these questions. I think people underestimate how much talent it takes to do something like that. It ain't easy

I was pretty surprised to see them sitting next to each other.

Why the hell did Shad take his kid to the conference, having a child near a microphone is never a smart idea.

Yeah the kid thing was a little odd, I thought there would be alot more questions for the fighters, and a lot more back and forth, way too many questions for Dana and some of them were dumb as hell, and shit that he answered in previous questions.

When asked if the UFC deliberately matched up so many wrestlers on
the main card to avoid having potentially brutal knockouts aired on
network television in primetime, a baffled UFC President Dana White
assured fans and media in attendance that that's simply not the case:

UFC on FOX 2 Press Conference Star-divide.v5e9d7f1

"This guy (Mark Munoz) has got one of the nastiest
ground-and-pounds in the business. One of the most vicious, nasty, smash
you up against the cage ground-and-pound there is. This guy (Rashad
Evans) comes out with one of the most vicious knockout highlights I have
ever seen when he kicked Sean Salmons in the face. I don't think you
can see anything more vicious than that. Anything can happen on any
given night with anybody. I mean I can't look at two fighters and say,
"Hey, let's put this one on because this won't happen or that won't
happen." The thing that makes this sport so exciting is that it's
completely unpredictable. We got over our hump with the first FOX fight.
We went out there, the presentation was perfect, it came off great,
quick knockout which people are used to and more importantly, no
complaints. So, it is what it is. This sport is on FOX and its going to
be for seven years and there are going to be knockouts and there are
going to be submissions, there is going to be some nasty
ground-and-pound. It is what it is."

At the presser for that fight yesterday, Chael talked about how much he thinks the network owes him:

"I would imagine that he's the best [wrestler]. He's certainly the
most decorated, you know? I haven't given it a lot of thought. I'm not a
wrestler either. I'm a fighter from the mean streets of Westland,
Oregon. This is the way it goes. I think everybody up here is grateful
to be on FOX. They say, "FOX, thanks," everybody but me. I would say,
"FOX, you're welcome. You've been telling people for years you've got
the American Idol and now you finally do."

Sonnen's thoughts on Anderson Silva's "fake injuries" and Munoz's accusations that he cheated in their college wrestling match after the jump.

On Silva:

"I don't believe Anderson's hurt. I know he says he's hurt and then
he was in training camp with Wanderlei that got caught on tape. He just
got done working with Machida that got caught on tape. I really don't
care about Anderson Silva. I truly don't. How hard is it gonna be to
become world champion beating up math teachers? I don't understand it.
Give Anderson Silva my schedule and see how well he does. Yeah, I think
he's ducking me. I think he's ducking Dan Henderson. I don't know if he'd be eager to fight Bisping, you'll have to Dan about that comment but no, I don't think he's hurt."

On Munoz's cheating accusations:

"Mark's explanation of heat of the moment, I appreciate that but I
assure you it was a calculated and premeditated event and I offer no
apology. Secondly, I don't even remember college. I'm driving around in a
car with no insurance, a pocket with no money and the biggest thing on
my mind was which kid to sit next to on exam day so as far as a
wrestling match, that was the fourth thing on my mind. I assure you on
January 28th, I will be ready. It will be one more in the win column,
one more above the mantel and one more for the bad guy."

Dana White will have an announcement on the flyweight division in the coming weeks.
The winner of Rashad Evans and Phil Davis is the number one contender for the light heavyweight title.
The winner of Chael Sonnen and Mark Munoz will face Anderson Silva.
The winner of Michael Bisping and Demian Maia is the number one contender.
Fuel TV subscriptions are up 11%. It will be a channel that UFC fans MUST have in 2012.
Anderson Silva will be ready to fight by the summer.

This is another obvious case where it is conditional to the winner. Just like the Hendo-Bisping and Alves-Fitch fights. IF Maia is the winner he is not guaranteed to get a title shot but if Bisping wins he is. This is an obvious match where Dana is hoping the fresh blood pulls through. But if Maia wins you can pretty much guarantee that if Anderson is Champion, Maia will not get his rematch. Only way he gets another title shot is if Sonnen wins the title, since he holds a dominating win over Sonnen.

i don't want to see Maia fight Silva ~~any time soon~~ ever

You won't have to. There is no possible outcome to these scheduled fights that would result in Maia vs Silva 2.
