                    <p>&ldquo;No one for sure can say Adolf Hitler is dead.&rdquo;<br />

Thomas J. Dodd, US trial counsel at Nuremburg

A new investigative series from The History Channel called 'Hunting Hitler' explores the historical possibility that Hitler escaped Nazi Germany at the end of World War II, and fled to German communities around South America.

The series hired UFC middleweight Tim Kennedy to travel to South America and assist in the investigation. The fighter was hired in his capacity as a world-class soldier; no mention of his MMA career is made.

“I was like, wait, Hitler died in 1945,” said Kennedy to Ben Fowlkes for MMAjunkie. “Everybody knows this. This is ridiculous, and I don’t want to waste my time with some stupid conspiracy stuff. But the more involved I got, and the more research they sent me, the more questions it raised.”

“I have so many of these opportunities right now. If you want me to fight, you’ve got to give me a guy I can’t wait to sink my teeth into. Otherwise, it’s not worth it. I don’t need the money. I make way more money doing this stuff, and I don’t get brain damage traveling to some of the most beautiful places on the planet with a $2 million-per-episode budget trying to find a war criminal. It’s way more fun.”

“(My family) see that this is a blossoming career for me. And they say, ‘Please do that from now on. Please don’t get hit in the face anymore.’ And that’d be nice. No more guys not getting off stools or guys injecting themselves with whatever. No more drama.”

“They talk about the retirement itch. I’ve never retired, but I know I’m going to have that itch until I die. … I train two or three times a day, and that kind of scratches the itch. I’ve also been talking about doing some grappling competitions, and that scratches it a little bit too. But nothing really does it, like a big old stick scratching a bear’s back, like getting in there and fighting. And they know that. They use that. But I have to have a real reason to come back.”

Kennedy described the odds of his returning to MMA as 50-50.

Good for him. It's cool to see some guys sticking to their guns regarding the Reebok deal Phone Post 3.0

Brigham - Good for him. It's cool to see some guys sticking to their guns regarding the Reebok deal Phone Post 3.0
Agreed. Good for him and still getting good work. Phone Post 3.0

That's not what he said about fighting on the MMA Hour today.

He was excited about the prospect of fighting the winner of Vitor Belfort/Dan Henderson.

"I want to beat the brakes off of the steroid users. So Anderson Silva, Vitor, Dan Henderson. I want to let all of them know that the clean fighters are going to make them pay."

Paraphrasing that quote as I can't remember verbatim what he said.

Did you not read the original post?

"I have so many of these opportunities right now. If you want me to fight, you’ve got to give me a guy I can’t wait to sink my teeth into. Otherwise, it’s not worth it."

So with him saying he wants to fight the winner of Vitor/Hendo, they obviously fit his criteria so he isn't contradicting himself at all like you're making it seem. Phone Post 3.0

Travel the world investigating some insanely interesting stuff and being paid well? Yes please. Phone Post 3.0

Hitler is alive and well at the tender age of 126.

They're searching for like a corpse or something, right? Or does someone need to explain to these guys that people die when they get old?

Zomby - Hitler is alive and well at the tender age of 126.


I assumed this was sarcasm but felt your point would be valid if his age would be like late 90's today.



 



Then I looked it up, and you're right, he'd be 126 if he was still alive. Fucking impossible lol.



 



The show should be about finding his body, not if he's alive. Adolf is DEAD. Like, Super dead. Imagine all the dead people, now imagine them on steroids-that's Adolf. Super dead.

Thought this was a Mitch Cumstein article Phone Post 3.0

I didn't read much of what he said.. But can you imagine if Hitler is alive and does a video before his old age death to prove it. How pissed off would you be? Phone Post 3.0

In for Wolfenstein. Phone Post 3.0

Really looking forward to a History Channel series blowing the lid off the conspiracy lol

Good for him for making money not getting punched in the head.


Also, I was at Tempelhof airport about a year ago. The whole airfield is a public park now. It's kind of awesome walking along the runways. You'd never see that kind of thing over here

When Kennedy gets to his little place on Nantucket island I imagine he's going to take off that handsome-lookin' UFC fight kit of his.

Fuck 'im Phone Post 3.0

Nobody can say for sure he is dead?

He was born in 1889 so he would have to be 126.

Oldest man ever was like 114, probably had a much less stressful life than hitler.

He most likely died in 1945, today he is definitely dead Phone Post 3.0

Josef Mengele "The Angel of Death", the reichs lead scientist in cloning, fled to South America and lived his entire life not being captured as a war criminal until 1979. He is clearly hunting "The boys from Brazil"
