Coker said "you know" at least 37 times, that's what I counted. Coker seems like a very sincere and honest fela, maybe he's just trying to be dilplomatic and polite? He's refused to respond to Dana White's recent jibes.

An MMA roleplaying game with dice? :) That's so nerdish this video gets 5 stars! Hehe.

Dana has got every fighter he has ever wanted in the octagon.I think Fedor is scared of the UFC. Please dont get excited about FEDOR coming to the UFC. It would have already happened by now. Remember the UFC bought Pride just to get Fedor and then he ran off scared. He has ran from couture for at least 2 years. Fedor is awesome but I am sick and tired of him dodging the UFC. I'm just sick of it! Sick to my stomach! Fedor will say its not about the money? Then what is it about dudes?scared

The Thing Is MMA fans want their Sport to be a Legit sport not only to the Hardcore Fans but to the Casual Fans, and the only way to do that is if you're a MMA promoter you should act like Scott Coker instead of Profanity Laden Dana White

Easy win for Carano...

I am glad that there is still one company left other than UFC. But Coker could really take a page out of Dana White's book when he is on the mic....

Good to see a promoter not trying to take on the UFC head on and run his promotion into the ground. This card has taken some hits though. Only one title fight left on the card and hopefully it stays a title fight, since both girls have a hell of a time making weight.
