Dana says Hunt vs JDS not looking good, JDS/Reem

In theory they could still have their JDS Overeem fight if JDS loses... I mean, they will both be coming off a loss. It would make less sense to match up hunt (if he won) with, what, a 5 fight win streak against Overeem who's 1-1 in the UFC.

Ok I get that he has a loss to overeem but you can make that fight then if Overeem eventually beats JDS!

I want to see Hunt JDS!

JDS vs. Hunt would be a cool fight imo. I'd rather him fight Hunt, than not fight at all waiting for overeem. For those whom think JDS would easily win, it could at least be an entertaining fight in the meantime. Sure there's the threat of injury, but that can also occur during regular training(as what happened with overeem).


Come on Dana! Just do it.

You win some and you lose some, it was not going to be the fight you thought originally anyway with JDS having been destroyed prior and Bigfoot KTFO Reem.

Or is it that JDS won't fight him?

Is that our new thing? Hunt aint getting a Top 5 opponent because UFC wants money fights? Hunto is gettin Hendricks'ed?!?! This...is...an...OUTRAGE!!

JDS? Overeem? You ducking 265lbs of striking Samoan rage! You trying to keep Hunt out of the title him?! Don't be scared of the 2 6 5 Hunt homies! Phone Post

junobeach - You're now reminded of all the bullshit Dana spews about making fights that fans want.

Fans want this fight. It's guaranteed to be a good fight

Dana & Zuffa don't because the chance JDS gets wrecked by Hunt is way too high.


Not sure, maybe it's only us hardcore guys that want the fight?

Nuts and bolts,
Nuts and bolts,
We got screwed. Phone Post

I'm okay with watching Dos Santos KO Overeem.

From a financial point of view (which is the only point of view) Overeem vs. JDS
Will sell more than Hunt.
You can't deny that. Former champs, some trash talk, on top of that Overeem was suppose to be this killer and JDS was being compared to Fedor somehow....

Doesn't have to be the better fight.. It just needs to sell. I'd love to see Hunt in there but money comes first for the UFC.

I hope Hunt KOs his next opponent into their living death so there can be no excuses that he is cleaning the heavyweight division Phone Post

They NEED to make this happen - why don't the UFC want to push Hunt as a star? He's probably one of the most universally loved fighters right now and he's definitely overcome the rough patch he had in the middle of his mma career (even then, he only lost to the best of that era) and proven himself as a top competitor. I don't get it!


Because Dana is petty and vindictive and for what ever insane reason has always hated on pride and on all fighters who use to formerly fight for pride.

Dana is that crazy and childesh.

Its the same reason why zuffa doesn't promote Shogun who is a stud in and out the ring

And its the same reason why Dana and his legion of zuffa zombies irrationally hate on Shogun even though Shogun has given them the greatest fights in UFC history.

Its the same reason why zuffa shills are paid to thrash all pride fighters on forums

Zuffa is anti pride, and its making me less and less a fan of the UFC as each day passes

Just go read posts from the UG's resident zuffa shills drunkard and well rounded poster.

These two morons are completely isnane and hate on nothing but former prife fighters 24/7

Drunkard and well rounded poster really do need to get banned. They are such aweful, and i lean aweful posters who bring nothing but negativity to the forums

Complains about other posters being negative posters in his negative post

I'd rather see jds reem, hunt get another fight And fight the winner for a title shot. Phone Post

At this point Hunt should be ahead of overeem anyway. Dont see hunt beating jds or cain tho. Reem has looked shit even in the brock fight. Single shot creeping forward chin protecting. Hunt vs overeem when healthy makes more sense. Reem lost a lot of marketing value getting popped then koed.

Wouldn't surprise me if JDS is avoiding someone who can knock him out to face someone who looked like a middle of the pack heavyweight in his last fight when a win likely gets him back in title contention



 



Could be

I think JDS really wanting Reem is more likely than him wanting to avoid Hunt. Phone Post

@Alistairovereem: Injured!
Caught a slightly tear in my quad muscle so unfortunatly out of may 25's UFC.
Not happy to let you guys 'the fans' down!

Reem tore his quad Phone Post

I want to see this fight. Phone Post

Dana, do you hear that knocking sound?

That's opportunity. That's the same knock that you heard coming from a dying company in 1/2001. You opened that door then, go ahead and open it again.

Do it for us. Do it for yourself...

Zuffa need to stop making matches with political motivation and just make a fight that we clearly want to see.

Hunt vs JDS and the loser fights Reem, winner fight Cain. Phone Post

What's Travis Browne doing these days? Not for JDS as that is unlikely but for Hunt.

Would love to see Hunt get the shot though.

The bar I was at had everyone rooting for Mark Hunt. People love him. Also the whole Pride gatekeeper beating the golden boy argument is idiotic. Anderson Silva anyone? Anderson was below gatekeeper status at Pride. Mark Hunt is super marketable. He's not out of shape, he's Somoan, there's a difference.
