That's what I think. Saying he bet on himself is giving him too much credit. He's just exactly what Dana says he is - a complete fucking idiot.

He got triangle framed by a tired feet sides(???) on hips guard. Which shows that Punk’s head was still in the right place vs him. Then at that lovely moment he started doing the “hey loopey!” punches.
I take it all back, thats a good fight. Its an odd moment when you get the oppurtunity to watch someone with real passion, constantly trying to pull off a miracle, but their body can’t keep up, already broken down physically training with a top camp, years of injuries, and having to go through a 3+ million dollar court case the week prior. I like the Diaz’s and accept their excuses (yeah! Fuck airline water), so inclined to do that here.

A prick whose part of the worst of sports media. Not fighter bashing, media bashing.
I think they wisely stayed away from having two 'fake rasslers' debuting in the UFC. Too many casuals could be convinced it was a work, damaging MMA's credibility(yes, even more than Punk's in-cage performance did).
With Punk losing to a pair of low level MMA guys, the UFC still showed you can't just take a few months of sprawl and sidestep training
and become a successful MMA practitioner. As much as some hardcores hated it, the suits got this one right from a business perspective: Punk debuted, added a good bump to the PPV buys and was predictably defeated. He took a significant amount of time to try to improve his game, and we were all watching to see if it made a difference. He lost, as most of us knew he would, and now we can all walk away from this spectacle. Punk made money and did something most of us will never have the balls to try, WME made money and exposed their product to some new eyes, and most of us viewers have been entertained to some degree. I can't complain.I should note I'm not dissing Punk or any other pro wrestler. I grew up on that stuff, and I know the talent, skill, sacrifice and dedication it takes to succeed in that world. I'm just referring to the general public's perception.
you can diss Punk if you want though.
It took years to get these 2 fights done, going to be awhile before fans move on from this.
It's sad though that the whole thing spawned two fighters I now really can't stand. Gall and Jackson
Ragin AL on the MMA Hour going the fuck off on Dana about talking shit about Mike Jackson,
when he shoulda been talking up Curtis Blaydes for knocking out Overheem
Talking shit about him moving the weighin times without talking to fighters and a host of over shit. LOL
Ragin AL To Dana: "You're mad at Mike Jackson?
You dummy you put a reporter on the PPV card. CM Punk's fight was a peanut butter & Jelly sandwhich.
You shouldn't be able to fuck that up but you did. You so mad at the reporter you put on the main card that
Curtis Blaydes knocking out Overheem got completely lost cuz ur talking about Mike Jackson"

I love the idea in your world the signing of CM Punk caused the lab that Romero escaped from to create Mickey Gall and Mike Jackson.
They wanted to make the perfect jobbers. “Oh yes yes yes, CM Punk known for zee knees. Go to sleep, my young creation, you go for takedown immediately!” I like to imagine a slight accent. Then with Jackson it was a “You don’t understand, Mr Jackson, I am zee doctor, and you are zee machine! You lose round 1, zen round 2 due to inactivity, ontop of Punk’s submission attempts! Muahahaha!”
But oh no, the judges. “ZEE STUPID STUPID JUDGES! Claudia von?! Oh zuckerburg! This means zee test subject B vill vin! Zuckerburg! Zuckerburg!” He, or she, I don’t care, then took a sigh of relief because Romero might make em proud!
not likely for the proprietor of Neverland Ranch, especially in his current state
Dana is 100% correct, but as others pointed out, the UFC made the fight & even if it was not DW's decision to have it on PPV, Dana publicly backed it up.
He should get the heat as well.
He should get the heat as well.
Ariel said something on the MMA hour that I didnt even think of
Dana said "I wished I woulda put this fight on Fightpass"
Ariel said (paraphrasing) "So in other words you want the public to know
Fightpass is where you intentionally put all the shit cards? Yet you want people to pay for it?"
Just thought that was funny... lol
Pride tattoos appear to be fine, but the power tattoos apparently are not, unless you're a honkey.
Ariel should watch his mouth so he doesn't have to spend a full work shift crying on the internet again.
Still can't understand why they don't have midget divisions for mma. Everybody loves midget wrestling. They're much stronger than normal people (pound for pound). It would be intriguing because of the leverage advantages/disadvantages and a little freakshowish for the casual fans. Plus, there's already lots of them in training now waiting for the big break. So, Dana you moose knuckled horse's arse-- get on with it!
They've already had it for years. They just call it the Men's Flyweight Division
