Rampage NOT fighting at UFC 186
- Thread starter ThatOneDude

Guaranteed they keep running that 186 commercial promoting Rampage's return......shady-shady.
After seeing recent interview with Rampage only a few weeks out of fight night looking at about 240 pounds, it's hard to disagree with jack slack on this one:

no surprise, and even if he was allowed i wonder if he made weight.
I think a certain artist put it best in another thread..

Jack Slack might have hit the nail on the head. I always felt it was a very questionable decision to "sign" Rampage when Rampage still was under contract. Now it's all starting to make sense. We'll see if this is mentioned in the monopoly case against Zuffa. 95% sure it will be referenced. I am assuming UFC won't play hardball when it comes to obtaining rights to Rampage.
I see UFC letting Bellator scoop Rampage back up, and UFC saying, "see, we're not a monopoly, other orgs can wright contracts to keep fighters" regarding their monopoly lawsuit, and in the mean time Rampage is super pissed because his sorry ungreatful ass got PLAYED by the company he was badmouthing trying to go back to(UFC).

i thought there was a set timeline that the suits were addressing, or am i wrong? if that's the case, this would have no effect.
I just posted the Zuffa statement on this. It is every bit as predictable and retarded as you would expect, even in their "brilliant" legal tactic that this was intended as they look like morons in their statement.
i kinda think rampage might be too stupid to see that he is being used as a pawn .im not sure zuffa really wants him.they just dont want bellator to have him. he could be a big fish in a small pond in bellator and get paid well. if he ever gets back into ufc legitly who can he beat?he will be used as a name to get some young lions a win over a known guy.i used to be a fan of pride era serious pimp rampage but that time has come and gone. the game has passed him by. all of his rivals have retired and moved on. guys of his era will never be on top again. i dont really know what he thinks his worth is but he just barely got by king mo and had a tough time with joey beltran.
Maybe...maybe not, lol. Zuffa may have promoted 186 all along, knowing he would likely never make it to the event.

arent we still waiting for them to make up for the Silva vs Maia fight in Dubai?
What I don't get is why would they make his fight the co main after the card changes were made. What an incredible waste of advertising money when they could have made Bisping vs Dollaway the co main instead.
They're going to bud. Just wait.
Trying to get that GSP crowd back.

Bell Centre Offering Refunds for UFC 186

This looks exactly like the kind of card they would run in Calgary now, lol.
You just can't buy your tickets until fight day with these guys unless you're in a major fight state like California or Nevada that has a ticket refund provision.
The UFC don't offer refunds if there is a title fight on the card, so are the Bell Centre eating the costs? I find that unlikely and I don't really find BJPenn.com very reputable.
