No, nobody goes to an "Archive forum"....

-Example: I'm a long time sherdog member, their Archive forum is in the same location as where you guys placed yours, Sherdog Archives was a circle jerk of mods and their buddies stroking their cawks ...so "nobody" would ever even click on "MMA Archives" section.

But obviously, this forum is different ...you guys need to be showcasing those type of interviews!

that's the type of thread that needs to be "featured and highlighted" on a forum.

That type of material needs to be at the TOP of your forum:

Splinty @Splinty - when you're finished with your massage & pedicure, could you look into this please? Thanks.

Sure, I remember all that drama ..Tim won a lot of respect from me as a fight fan when he went to Affliction to fight Fedor, he showed alot of balls cutting off Dana's puppet stings.

Why is Howie Long asking questions in this vid?

Chael Sonnen discusses why he didn't get fight Fedor Emelianenko on Saturday - TheMacLife

“With the commission, weigh-ins had closed,” he said. “But because it was a heavyweight fight … there is a clause in the contract, that at the discretion of the executive director [the fight can go ahead] in cases like this where things can happen. Executive director [was] on board.”

But while the executive director was agreeing to let the contest happen, Sonnen says it was actually Emelianenko himself who put a halt to proceedings.

“Fedor knew how contracts worked. Most guys don’t,” Sonnen said. “Fedor was hip to the fact that the contract was very clear — ‘if I weigh in, i get paid. So why would I fight anybody? Why would I fight Chael? Why would I fight Oli? I will fight Mitrione, that’s what I agreed to do, and that’s what I still agree to do’. But he knew that [he] would be on a plane back to Moscow tomorrow either way.”

Now he is using the I beat Tito but didn't say anything because I am all class and he was retiring

He's a Fedor fan. He's not about to let facts get in the way of a point he's making.
IF coker or someone else says it I may believe it

but the word of chael is not worth much IMO

He is entertaining but not genuine

As for the story that fedor got paid anyway, so why take the fight.

That makes sense....nothing to gain from fighting kongo oil tito or Chael

I don't doubt the story...just the source

The real reason that Chael didn't get to Fight Fedor

Is because he is not qualified to fight fedor...has performed rather poorly since he stopped using his PEDs

And his last fight looked fixed to boot

MIttrione was the only guy who "did not get to fight" Fedor....everything else is just look at me talk

You sure? According to Bellator's broadcasters at the opening of the event it was because Fedor turned down any replacements he was offered.

Im not sure....missed that part.

For the sake of the fans, yes it would be good to see Fedor fight because we were excited to see him compete.

But for Fedor, the smart move is not to fight a decision master/nutcrusher(kongo), an unknown guy (OLI), Freshly retired Tito, or Chael

Lose Lose situation....he wins, he gets no credit...he loses and he gets no credit

I am amazed that anyone wants to see Chael fight at all right now.

Meathead v Fedor is a good exciting fight on paper...meat is kill or be killed.

I doubt many High level guys take such a downgrade in opponent on such short notice.
