UFC Fight Night 47: Bader vs. St. Preux

Where: Cross Insurance Center in Bangor, Maine
When: August 16, 2014
Prelims on Fox Sports 2 - 8pm ET/5pm PT
Main Card on Fox Sports 1 - 10pm ET/7pm PT

Goonweight Grand Prix Stuff: Make your picks || Spreadsheet || Thread
Chat: #MMA on synIRC



The state of Maine is world-renowned for three things
3. Most people think it has too much snow
2. Most people think it has too much white people
1. Tim Sylvia

The Ultimate Fighting Championship event tonight will not be remembered for its participants. Ultimately, it will be remembered for the conspicuous absence of one man.



Here is Tim's highlight reel. Just try not to be impressed (It is impossible. You will be impressed):


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euRNF_WN6iw


This is the wrong video. Mods, please remove this video.

There is only one explanation for Tim's exclusion.

"Dana is the way he is. Everyone knows how Dana White is, and he's never gonna change, unfortunately... So, it's like, it seems like every month, every other month they're doing something just to entice me or to piss me off and say, 'Ha ha, look what we're doing now and you're still not welcome back.' They're just doing poo poo just to piss me the gently caress off. It's really annoying."

:siren:PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION.:siren:







Here are all the people that will be on this card instead of Tim.

Jack May is a really tall muay thai redneck and Zack Makovsky vs Jussier Silva is probably a #1 contender fight

I feel like Gray is gonna paste Ross Pearson. Someone tell me why this is wrong and don't give that weak rear end chin bullshit.

Huh, I just noticed that Makovsky/Formiga is shoved to the prelims. That's pretty lame.

Also I'm pretty sure Gray is gonna beat up Pearson, but aside from the chin thing, the dude is getting pretty old.

Gray hasn't been looking that good and Pearson sort of has? Also would bet Pearson has some fire after the Diego bullshit decision.

Has he though? That Melvin fight really made me view Ross in a different light. Sure he has some crisp technical striking, but I feel like his level of competition hasn't touched what Maynard has faced and he's fared better even if Lessar Diaz took him out standing and the broken head man clocked him.

Unless you have work tomorrow morning or you're babysitting tonight don't watch this card.

Gray's looked really bad in losing his last couple of fights, but if you're looking for a reason to believe it'll be competitive don't forget that he's a former lead blanket facing a British man, on top of which he punches a little bit harder than Cole Miller

Is "Joe Soto" Joe Soto fighting in the FP slot? That should be interesting.

I looked at many pictures of him this morning and I found it most notable that in every one he appears to be focusing on pushing his eyeballs out of his head.

I also have about a dozen shirtless pictures of Tim Sylvia on my desktop.

I think this one time, Bader had a fight where I found him entertaining. I can't remember which one.

Maynard vs Pierson will be great though.

Everything I say draws controversy. It's kinda like the abortion issue.
Dana should be ashamed for not signing Big Tim after his four fight losing streak. Shame on you Dana!! After all Tim did for you during the dark ages.

On the real I would like to see Tim fight in the UFC again, but it will probably never happen.
