FOX Issues Statement Apologizing for Chael Sonnen’s Rihanna Remark on FOX Sports Live

BAD MMA News — Wed, 18 Sep 2013 22:18:05 +0000

UFC fighter and Fox Sports broadcaster Chael Sonnen has become famous in recent years as much due to his gift for gab as his abilities in the Octagon. Sonnen’s flare for phonetics, however, landed him in hot water following a recent appearance on Fox Sports Live. He was there to discuss Jon Jones ’ upcoming title defense against Alexander Gustafsson, and served on a panel discussing the hot topics of the day. The conversation shifted to Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s recent boxing title defense and record-setting pay-per-view

Dana White again blasts conspiracy theories, Sports Illustrated on UFC 162 claim

BAD MMA News — Thu, 18 Jul 2013 04:00:00 +0000

Responding again today to questions of whether the main event of UFC 162 was fixed, UFC President Dana White ranted at conspiracy theorists and then targeted one of the most respected institutions in sports reporting. “Who’s going to throw a fight by getting viciously knocked out?” the UFC executive ranted during an appearance on ESPN2′s “Highly Questionable.” “You know how stupid you’d have to be to even think that?” “Speaking of morons, Sports Illustrated had this group of people together, and they actually – Sports Illustrated! – had this panel saying, ‘Yeah, so I heard over the weekend, this fight might have been fixed.’ First of all, these people looked like they covered tennis – not fighting – and you could tell none of them even watched the fight.” White was referring to a panel of reporters that mused on whether Anderson Silva took a dive against the newly minted UFC middleweight champ Chris Weidman during a segment on the web series SI Now, which covers hot topics in sports. “For somebody like Sports Illustrated – people are supposed to be credible journalists – to go out and say something that stupid when they never even watched the fight, it’s just a testament to how bad reporting is getting these days,” White continued. “It’s more about the shock factor than the fact factor.” It’s not the first time White has let expletives fly on the topic. Immediately after the pay-per-view event, which took place July 6 at MGM Grand Garden Arena, he said people who thought that Weidman’s knockout was predetermined were “f—ing idiots.” Yet for several days, the topic hung in the air, which likely prompted the SI panel to address the situation. None of the journalists, however, were MMA reporters for the storied news outlet. Reps for SI.com could not be reached for comment. As White pointed out on ESPN2, if the fight was fixed, it would have been far smarter to have Silva tap to Weidman’s submission attempts prior to his fight-ending KO, and under better odds.

Twitter Mailbag: Rampage, Rua-Sonnen, Bonnar in HOF, six-packs and PEDs

BAD MMA News — Thu, 06 Jun 2013 21:30:00 +0000

Between Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s big Bellator news and the UFC 161 switcheroo, this week’s Twitter Mailbag is practically bursting at the purely figurative seams. But don’t worry. There’s room for all the hot topics here, from Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira ‘s chances to pull off another Brazilian miracle to B.J. Penn ‘s post-retirement prospects, and much more. You can ask your own question on Twitter at @BenFowlkesMMA , but first you’re going to want to sit down and dig right in to this week’s #TMB. * * * * My brain says that Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira won’t beat Fabricio Werdum at UFC on FUEL TV 10 this Saturday, but my gut says that you can never count out “Big Nog,” especially in Brazil.
