    I feel bad for Coleman- fair play though as he's old as ****. I hope he finds another way to generate income.

    White is doing Coleman a favour, that guy looked like a crazy tired old man since he came back to the UFC.

    Nover has only been in the UFC for a year and lost all his fights, if he wasn't in TUF no one would really remember him.

    Frank Trigg should retire they love him in Japan, he could do some coaching or TV work there.

    Nover was a bust all anyone talked about before Efrain beat him was that Nover was the next great Champion. Trigg is better off finding somewhere to commentate hes not bad at it. Coleman might go back to Japan from what I hear.

    Good news. Not for them, but for the UFC. Out with the old, more of the new.

    Not seen the fight but a lot of people are saying Hague got robbed. If thats the case, I think it's harsh that he got cut.

    Coleman is still a name and is coming off headlining a UFC PPV - so he'll find another fight somewhere. He'll pop up in Japan or Strikeforce without a doubt. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the April Strikeforce card.

    I just wish Coleman would get hired on with some Top MMA team as a wrestling coach.

    Surely UFC are exposing themself here. They put on a card where 2 of the main fighters have now been cut. Coleman was coming off of the Bonnar win but Bonnar TUF sweetheart is still arount. Trigg was built into a serious test and Serras career is rejuvenated off of the win. Sonnen was a 5 to 1 underdog which discredited a third fight.

    You cannot tell me main event fighters get cut after one loss. That's bad. Main event fighters shouldn't get cut like that. If there is a chance of that happening then are they really main event fighters?!

    I can't understand why Coleman was in a mainevent, how do you go from fighting on the preliminary card to main event in 1 fight? I understand his history and that he's a legend and all but he should have never been headlining a card.

    They should have cut more. Too much rehash fighter in the UFC. How the **** is Jardine still fighting in the UFC.
