Anyone else notice that the Mike Whitehead picture was taken from MMA Weekly? All these telephone conversions and fake airport stories need to be confirmed before putting them down as news. That site is just like any trash wrestling news site that makes up stories to get hits.
You are a hater. I. I grew up with him. That shirt he is wearing is a Crater Comets high school shirt. Crater High is in Central Point Oregon; Whitehead graduated from there in 1999. Every thing I have said on here about Whitehead has turned out to be true because I hear it from Whitehead. So watch when all of this goes down. You sir are a troll and have no idea what you are talking about. Who the hell cares that I got the pic from MMa Weekly I never said I took the pic my self. Is it that hard to believe that people on a MMA website have friends that are pro fighters; just because you have no friends you are hating.
chubbud22, any word on:
Where the money is coming from to promote this and pay the fighters ?
Who is behind the Affliction fight promotion ?
Thanks....

I'll say this. I don't think this will ever happen. First of all, I've read numerous times from numerous sources that both Fedor and Couture are pushing for an October fight. Now maybe its just wishful thinking, but I have faith this is a possibility. Inside the MMA on HDNet no less, has talked about this potential match many many times. Now, if this is even a possibility, theres no way Fedor is doing anything but training. I saw him running with the olympic torch the other day. I wondered what people would think if say Rampage Jackson was an american torch runner. I just think that would be funny to see. Back to the point, I would much rather see Fedor vs Couture then Fedor vs Silvia. I just think Fedor would destroy Silvia, and I'd bet SIlvia knows it. I think Couture would make a much better match. I lknow I know, seventy percent of the people reading this are saying "Give up man, its never going to happen, Dana won't let it happen.' Well **** Dana. He's turning into such a prick. I'm just one of many that think this fight would be more anticipated by me and everyone than any other fight I've seen.
Peace Outside. coleSCAR
ps: Go GSP!!!! Kentucky loves ya man!! pss: Am I the only one alive that sees Forrest defeating Rampage?
Hell no man, I know this is kinda an old thread but I really think Forrest has a great chance at this one!!! WAR FORREST!!

I had already posted this is the other Fedor thread a few days ago and if anything this is from a LESS credible source!
But these fights are on and it will be a good event, whether they will go bankrupt straight away is another matter, they will need ALOT of ppv buys to cover the huge fighter payouts
If all this is true and turns out great but yeah I just don't see how a company with no name in the US or Japan what so ever is going to make a profit on this. If anything they are going to take a HUGE loss on this. Something just doesn't add up here because you have to have investors for something like this and they have to see profits coming in for them to just toss money away like this. UFC is where its at because of Spike TV and TUF. If this gets broadcast on HDnet thats even worse because most cable companys right now don't even carrier HDnet so a large number of people wont even be able to watch it. I dont know man something just seams very fishy about all this stuff if you ask me.

If you know Whitehead then where did he go to Middle School? Didn't think so. Your just trying to be a cool guy!
Scenic Middle School And Central Point Elementary

I dunno, the only thing that makes sense financially is if mark cuban backs them with his millions of dollars because I know he runs HDnet and I can't see affliction having the millions of dollars to pay this lineup without his backing.

I love HDNet. In Cincinnati you can't even buy UFC fights in HiDef!! I've tasted HiDef MMA, I'm not sur eI can go back. UFC needs to fix this. HD is the way. HDNet rules! You can find MMA on there all the time.
