    That was just horrible. How awful does that look for MMA? I won't be surprised to hear that CBS drops Strikeforce after that... and I won't be surprised if the entire company goes belly up. I can't believe they took it that far on Network TV.

    I wouldn't be surprise. I actually want to see the champion shields-melendez-king mo and former champ mousasi .. fedor-arlovski-overeem etc fight in the ufc.

    Shields would give gsp a challenge
    melendez would be a good addition to the already packed lightweights
    King Mo and Mousasi would make the 205 lbs division even better
    Fedor-Overeem-Arlovski etc would give brock new challengers

    I heard what I hope is a nasty rumor. I heard that there was a huge riot in the parking lot after the event, and a college killed was killed. I hope that is just bull****. If it isn't... Strikeforce may as well file for bankruptcy tomorrow.

    That was the Diaz brothers and a couple others jumping Miller. Melendez pushed him away, but then scooted out, I am pretty sure. The Diaz brothers were doing most of the attacking. Pretty sure it was Nick dragging him to the ground, and Nate booting him while he was down.

    Someone posted it under a video of the brawl. Said that they were there. Another person said they were there too, and said that at least 3 people were taken away on stretchers. Another person said that it was true and they were watching it on the local news. However, I would think it would be big news already. It was on youtube... so hopefully it is just some people being jackoffs. However, I usually don't see people saying this sort of stuff on there.

    The more I read about it... the more it seems that way. He also said that Rogan "tweeted" that Miller was in a holding cell for instigating a riot. Then later someone pointed out Rogan's twitter page didn't say anything, he then said that it was actually a text message that he got saying that he may be charged with manslaughter.... He seems to just be an ass hole screwing around. Miller even tweeted "Whoops" about an hour ago.

    The real question is... why couldn't this have happened to Kanye West at the Awards show instead?
