Cormier/Bigfoot is an interesting fight...Is Cormier big enough to control Bigfoot?

i had silva winning over overeem too. something tells me he did not want to fight bigfoot. one good thing, at least we probably get to see barnett vs silva and they definitely do not like each other.

Zuffa doesn't want to change the date. They need the winner of the Grand Prix for a super fight with the winner of Cain JDS superbowl weekend. At least that's my theory.

feb 2012. Junior dos santos (new UFC heavyweight champion) vs big foot silva (strikeforce grand prix champion) i could sell that.

Zuffa is also saying, in the wake of Nick Diaz talking up his boxing career to earn himself a title shot, don't f*ck with us and think you can all pull the same move. Overeem decided to talk up his Klitschko fight and Zuffa called his bluff.

if someone else can't participate in the grand prix(injuries, contract issues) i would say chad griggs would get his big opportunity. i'm all for that.

"If Overeem doesn't want to fight because his toe is hurt, then get me
King Kong. Get Josh Barnett and Sergei Kharitonov both. I'll fight them
both at the same time."
Forget Chael Sonnen, Antonio Silva is fhe funniest guy in MMA.

@havok, no hes out because he challenged his new bosses and lost. I dont understand what he thought was going to happen when he said Zuffa was "disrespecting" him.

In what seemed like an insignificant move at the time, Overeem watched Taxi Driver. Which would have been fine except that Dana White is a) not a mirror and b) can pretty much make or break you in the UFC.

Overeem showed hes not as big as the hype around him was when he fought vie cavalo, if werdum woulda stayed standing he woulda have won the fight, big foot would have deffinitly taken overeem out and reem was not willing to lose that yet, now what do you think happens with him and the title and his chances with the ufc

I dont know but its kinda ****** that he is out, I think they will give Overeem a big fight still and he might even defend the SF belt, still he had his reasons if he didnt want to fight, its his career

@punx62. i had silva beating overeem in the second round. silva is going to give cormier his first lost too. the man is on a mission.
