What is next for the Hammer?

Yeah I just don't care to see coleman fight anymore or take up airtime on the biggest stage in mma.

All time great and legend-YES!!

Contender today- not a chance

At 45 and 5-5 in his last ten fights,his best days are clearly behind him.Another Shamrock,if you ask me.

well to his defense those 5 losses were to Nog, fedor x 2, shogun and CC. In that same time frame he's beaten Frye, Shogun and Bonnar. He's looking older for sure but I think he's got far more left in the tank than most realize.

he has an eight of a tank left... i say have him fight matt hammil for the battle of the Hammer's

His tank has always been on half empty his whole carreer

His gas tank has yes but he's got some fight in him yet obviously. Now he actually has money to train again.

OK combat but do you think he should be fighting the best competition at this time in his carreer? So many challengers and up and comers at that weight class its like he is just taking up someone elses slot now to hold on his past glory.

If your asking do i still think he's good enough to fight in the UFC then that is a yes. He fought Shogun tough (ugly fight) and shogun is fighting for the belt. then he went out and beat bonnar. to me the best fighters in the world should be on the roster regardless of age. The UFC should represent the best period. I definitely say coleman isn't the same fighter he was but at 205 right now he certainly should be able to continue fighting for them. I think there are a good number of guys at 205 he could take out.

this actually makes me think of chuck.. Dana wont tell Coleman to ride off into the sunset and call it a career at 45..but he wants chuck at 40 to do so?.. Chuck prolly has twice as much left in the tank the Coleman

It's more so how chuck is losing his fights.

i can understand the KO's worry Dana about Chuck's wellbeing but he still has some left and if you can make the argument that coleman has some left so he can stay then u wud have to say the same about Chuck.

I've never said chuck doesn't have fight left in him. The difference between a guy like a chuck and coleman is chuck has been brutally KO'd/TKO'd 3 times in the last two years which is how man times coleman has been KO'd/TKO'd in his ENTIRE CAREER! There is certainly a difference.

yeah but what happened in that Shogun fight? decision or not was garbage dude.. that to me looked worst then getting Ko'd


but your rite there is a difference...

I know he can compete but the fact is I know he will not be able to beat anyone outside the gatekeepers. And come on combat shogun is returning to form a little more in every fight if they rematched right now shogun knocks him out or chokes him out.
