Shlemenko calls out Tito Ortiz for Bellator PPV!
http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Ale...yPerView-66445

“Tito Ortiz, you say you want to fight May 17 on Bellator’s pay-per-view. I will fight you. I will beat you,” Shlemenko said. “Tito, I respect you, but I must beat you, because I am champion. I know Tito Ortiz is a light heavyweight. This is not a problem for me. I’m ready to fight light heavyweight, no problem. Bjorn, make this fight for me, because I am champion. I am the best. I will make a good fight -- fight of the night.”

As washed-up as Tito may be, he's still effectively 2 weight classes bigger than Shlemenko and a tough stylistic matchup for him. Shlemenko has to be the toughest guy in MMA right now.

Tito taking the third billing on a Bellator PPV?

How bad does he need money

[Vaughany]

99% certain hell pull out before fight day

Rousey will fight Davis at UFC 175.

[Vaughany]

lmao who has seen the "brawl" between Wanderlei/Sonnen from last night? looked like something out of WWE...ridiculously staged!

this shitty youtube footage with great backing sound is only thing I can find for now..

[Vaughany]

....

[MD]

Doesn't look particularly staged to me. Sonnen took him down and then it was broken up. That's how I'd expect a fight to go between them.

UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones is claiming his phone was hacked and thus is not responsible for multiple homophobic posts carried out through Instagram.

Just 11 days out from his next title defense, UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones finds himself under scrutiny for homophobic comments sent under his Instagram account to an MMA fan in Sweden, who says Jones blocked him on Twitter, went through his Instagram pictures, and was repeatedly harassed with homophobic comments on multiple occasions.
According to Malki Kawa, Jones' manager, the offending remarks were not sent by Jones himself. He says that Jones lost his phone and the person responsible for those comments was the one who retrieved it:
Interestingly enough, Kawa deleted this claim on his own Twitter account, but his original tweet was found via TMI.me, a service used for tweets that run over 140 characters. We have a screenshot:
Jones later tweeted at 9:39 PM ET that he'd indeed lost his phone and had changed his social media passwords:
Attached are some screenshots (taken by Bloody Elbow) of the offensive quotes, along with a screenshot captured by the Swedish man, who posted evidence of the tirade on his Instagram page:







The rough translation of "For 15 minuter sedan" is "15 minutes ago", i.e. a time stamp. So while the photos themselves were not uploaded today, all of the published comments under Jones' account were from April 15th.
It is also worth noting that Jones appears to have posted a "selfie" on his Instagram AFTER the time where the Swedish man made the comments about Jones "stalking him." So, the obvious question is 'how was your phone stolen for those comments but photos were posted after the initial allegations?'"
Here is the selfie in question:

Bloody Elbow contacted Kawa at approximately 8:30 PM ET to inform him of these Instagram postings and to give him time to speak with Jones over this very serious matter. Multiple attempts to get a statement from Kawa as of 10:40 PM ET have been unsuccessful.

The new season of the Ultimate Fighter looks awesome so far. Taleb and Lyman Good are both solid fighters and lost their fights to get in the house. Penn's Team and coaching staff are stacked! I'm looking forward to Cathal Pendred's fight next week.

^^^That black guy that was getting his ass kicked all over the cage had one of the best comeback wins ever.

wtf taleb lost the fight to get in the house but he gets a fight on a real ufc event? what sense does tht make?

ha yeah, the whole core idea of TUF is just redundant now! Is was bad enough that you have the whole country vs country tuf nations thing and then two guys from same country end up fighting each other! I guess now theyve thought fuuck it, we'll just ignore the whole point of the show as well!

yeah he got fuucked up but had Jesus Lord Almighty in his corner

Can I get an AMEEEEEENNNNNNNN

I dont think I've ever seen an entertaining Pendred fight?! Literally every fight he just copies the Couture gameplan against Brandon Vera and just grinds his opponent against the cage for 15 minutes! UFC seem to think that he has star potential just because he's McGregor's homeboiii


Highlight of the show was Connor saying to Chris Fields "ahhh luck of the Irish" after Fields only got through because his opponent blew his knee out!!!

I do like that BJ and Edgar arent trying to create some big false beef though, they were just talking normally and cracking jokes with each other. Refreshing to see

This is looking really good, it will probably get more buys than alot of UFC events. I wish BT Sports would pick this up too, I reckon the UFC have some clause though that they cant show it.

It will be free money if the Shlemenko line opens close, not a Luck Rockhold type of one plz. I like Rampage too.

[NunyaBidness]

This is looking really good, it will probably get more buys than alot of UFC events.

I'd take a propbet that it doesn't outsell whatever the lowest selling UFC PPV of all time whatever that is.

Maybe on misfit island. I heard The Charlie in-the-box is a big King Mo fan.

[Sykes]

Im probably wrong so but to me that looks like a great card. Who doesn't what to see these guys fight? maybe with the general public it wont be to popular but personally im looking forward to it.

jeeez check out the face on that nose!...

Former Strikeforce title challenger Tim Kennedy and UFC Hall of Famer Chuck Liddell have more in common than just a career in mixed martial arts, they also share the same baby momma.
Yes it’s true, and the mother is none other than female MMA fighter Casey Noland (4-6 MMA, pictured).
Noland met “The Iceman” when she was seventeen and he was in his mid 20′s. The pair began dating and eventually produced a daughter named Trista who is now 16-years-old.
Casey’s first experience with competitive fighting came early on in her relationship with Chuck. She worked out with Liddell at ‘The Pit’ every day after school and put together a 3-0 amateur boxing record.
Chuck and Casey’s relationship would eventually come to an end, but the two have remained friends and kept a good relationship over the years.
In the late 90′s, Noland would use the knowledge she gained from both boxing and kickboxing and apply it to the sport of mixed atrial arts.
After a few amateur MMA bouts, Noland’’s career was interrupted by the birth of her second daughter, Sabrina, whom she had with current UFC middleweight Tim Kennedy.
I guess it is a small world after all, well, at least in the MMA community.
In case you wondering, Casey Noland has not competed in MMA since an October 2012 loss to Zoila Gurgel, which occurred under the Bellator banner.
