    It's bizarre seeing Coleman at 205 considering there was a time when he represented the "big man" in MMA.

    What else does Mark have these days? The ruleset in PRIDE favored his limited style more. In the ocatagon because he has never evolved has zero submmisions zero standup and always defaults to the single leg when hurt he's as good as useless. He's also 44. Its the wrong time for Mark to be in this sport. The only reason why he's at 205 is because he cant take hormones.

    :huh

    He can fight for 30 seconds. He is 44. Letting him fight in the UFC will only encourage this Cinderalla Man stuff. If Coleman was a dog I'd have him put down.

    I just hope he doesn't make his girls look at his face again when it looks like he got hit with a meat hammer.

    It was ****ing idiotic. I like like Frank Trigg but he's comments about PRIDE being an event you could bring your family too were stupid. Coleman simply got beat up. He's kids saw that. Then the guy starts cursing on the mike whilst the PCP slowly wears off. Not a good look.. :blood

    That might have been a funny reality show.

    Hammer House.....

    Starring the Coleman Family, Kevin Randleman...Coleman and Randleman train during the day with wrestling and more wrestling with a little bit of GNP and for some live action they go out clubbing looking for fights......

    Read on Tatame that Paulo Thiago will most likely be fighting Jon Fitch on this card.

    :think Bet he'll be looking to KO another top WW contender. But I doubt Fitch will get dragged into not fighting his fight.

    Jon Fitch is an intelligent fighter. He didnt try to outstrike Alves ! He will beat quite easily Thiago.

    This might be Coleman's last fight for sure, he was lucky Shogun was gassed almost as badly as he was and that prolonged the fight but Bonnar usually comes in great shape so he should be able to wear down the Ole boy.

    Another potential fight which is being discussed for this card is Jon Jones vs Jake O'Brian.
