Yeah
Ran into the UFC employee that I buy tickets from at the TUF final a few weeks ago. She asked if I was coming out for the NY show. I explained I go to all mma and already was lined up for 2 bellator events in jan so I wouldn't be able to afford it. She told me if I found a room for reasonable price she'd set me up with tickets. Booked a room and emailed asking if I could get 4 to take my usual crew. She responded telling me it was great to meet me and 4 tickets will be waiting at the gate. As bad of a wrap as the UFC as a whole gets I've meet some really nice and generous people in the last few years.
Reed Harris seems like a class act.

Yeah he seems to be very well respected. I’ve heard several fighters be very complementary of him. He was so successful with the wec, it would be interesting to see him promoting against Coker and how that would play out.

Bob Carson MMA @Bob Carson MMA I know this probably sounds crazy but you should have an MMA fan on the show. A nobody who will give you his or her honest opinion on the state of MMA, UFC, Bellator etc. Someone who will breakdown what is going on with Bogus rankings, a fighter like Conor and what he was given based on trash talk, other fighters not able to pay bills and have to work other jobs but yet are considered professional athletes, the reebok deal and how the effect of is way bigger than talked about. The WME deal and how that has shaped the UFCs landscape etc. Someone also needs to speak on Dana White and bring up his horrible business practices, and fighter treatment etc. When you get a cutting edge show that shows they dont care about the flack they may get because they are going to expose the truth, imo ratings will follow.
At the end of the day, we are all just fans, IMO. I just heard the MMA Junkie guys talk about how they were fans of Ryan Bennett and that led them to start their show as fanboys.

He invited me to the UFC PI when I was in Vegas. I have his email, but how do I get in touch with Leigh.
PM him here. Click the envelope in the upper right hand corner, and then type his name in the recipient box.

Or Leigh @Leigh can PM you. Then your envelope will turn red.

Bob Carson MMA @Bob Carson MMA before you get Leigh @Leigh booked in please start a thread about it so we know the date and time and maybe you can let us ask him a few questions you can throw at him at the end of the interview.......

I'm on the doorstep of AKA and I'm pretty persuasive. If you want me to wangle something I'm sure I could arrange something.

Or Dustin hazelett. He retired early from the UFC. He got mentioned on here the other day and I was curious what he's been up to.

Same with Mike russow
Hey, bruvlaaaar. That was me who brought him up. I'm dead curious too, I had such high hopes for him.

Lol, just reading American Kickboxing Academy's roster, if anyone wants me to interview Phil Baroni he'd be up for it he's so needy and we have common ground because I saw him fight in the UK for Cage Rage.

Right but my point was having one of those types on your show not someone known who people always know have some sort of bias. Whatever it's your show but do what everyone else does and you don't stand out, do something different and exciting and you have more chance of people being like oh wow that is different I want to see what happens next. Imagine if Howard Stern did what everyone else what doing at the time, where would he be. So funny how some people ( not saying you) are so afraid to go against the status quo but than wonder why no one is paying attention.
