So are you a communist or what?
The fighters should fight for free?
Nobody should pay to see it, everyone should just donate their time?
Any money that is made should go to a charity of your choice?
Get the fuck out of here.
Everything you said is absolutely ridiculous.
If people want to see these guys fight, they will pay. They already pay millions of dollars for PPV's, merchandise, and whatever else.
You have two choices where that money is going. Fighters or Owners. Nobody is going to "give it away". Sorry, not going to happen. Now, I dont see why you would rather see Dana White get rich(er), at the expense of someone getting their fucking head beat in.

Here is an even better question Smoke, now that Randy is gone how are they going to name the next champ? You think it's going to come down to the Verra Vs Syliva for a quick fix of the problem? Or does Dana have some big idea you think..

Where did I say that? Keep putting words in my mouth 
I said most of the fighters should be making more than they are now. I also said that they should be having good medical insurance provided.
You obviously have no respect or honour for true martial arts and there backgrounds. Martial arts is a way of life. It was never supposed to be about "being greedy for the dollar".

Already called that too. Of course it's not. And it's not going to happen in any other sports organization either. It's just sad to see something with such an old and rich history suffer the same fate of greed as all the others.

Knowing Dana, they're going to award a champion as soon as possible, using all kinds of hype to build up the title fight.
Not Sylvia-Vera since it's already been sanctioned as a 3 rounder...
The only thing that makes sense to me at this point is the winner of sylvia-vera fighting the winner of nog-kongo.

They're supposedly bringing in Brock Lesnar.
The UFC seriously reminds me more and more about the WWE.
Soon you'll see Batista coming into the Octagon to heavy metal and red fireworks, and Dana White hopped up on roids talking to everyone about how he fucking runs shit and then challenges Gabriel Gonzaga to a Ladder Death Match.

I can't believe Dana White is trying to spin this "awww feel bad for Tim Sylvia" story. Have you seen this shit? 
http://www.sherdog.com/news/articles.asp?n_id=9542
Sylvia the Boy, Sylvia the Man, Sylvia the Giant. This is starting to sound a lot like the WWE.

lol
""My family life was hard. My mother drank a lot. There was physical abuse from my father," Sylvia says, voice fluttering briefly. "And I was teased and bullied a lot by kids in school."
The concept of the UFC's biggest bully being pushed around might seem odd. But Sylvia the Giant did not always exist. Sylvia the Boy was short, fat and often a target of ridicule by his peers"

That's exactly what I thought when I heard this. Lame.
They should give Crocop a rematch with Gonzaga at this point, I don't see any other smart moves for him right now.

So Randy is set to make something like 2.5 Million (MILLION) and become an absolute legend if he can somehow go to M-1 and beat Fedor.

Yeah he definitely did grab the ropes a few times when Lindland was trying to take him down, but that armbar he tapped him with was pretty fucking interesting.

no doubt about that
but how the hell is lindland going to get from underneath that fat ass?
just might have been a little different if matt would have gotten the take down
I notice fedor grabs the ropes to avoid take downs a lot

watch it again. Fedor doesn't grab into the ropes to prevent the take down, although he does rest his arm on it. The reason that Fedor was not taken down was because he was hooking linland's leg and shifting his weight. The funny thing is that lindland grabbed the ropes himself but he still whined like a baby about fedor using them.

I did watch the fight and fedor does use the ropes to stop the take down multiple times.
I'm just saying that why he wound up on top.
Once on top fedor taco'd his ass.
Just might have been a little different fight had fedor not cheated 5 times.
