"After the [UFC 99] fight, (Swick) ended up coming to the back and talking for a bit. I was kind of feeling out if he was just trying to gloat or just trying to rub it in my face. What's going on here? I went with it. He seemed like it may have been he was more excited than gloating and I was like, 'Oh, that's cool man.' I went up to Bob Cook after, I was looking for my corner Paul Rodriguez and I said, 'Hey Bob, have you seen Paul? And he was like, 'Man, you're still smiling, huh?' I had nothing to be ashamed of. I got TKO'ed by Mike Swick and I'm fighting in the UFC living my dream and then they said something. Then as I was walking away his entire corner and Mike Swick were more like, 'Got knocked the f--- out,' or something like that. And I was like, 'Are you serious?' I thought that was ridiculous, arrogant and uncalled for. Mike Swick just was in the back with me trying to be cool with me and then you're going to act like that because you're with your crew and all laughing in my face as I'm walking away?"

I dont like any of Swicks crew to be honest. They seem to think they are still at school. Anyway hopefully Hardy taught Swick some humility.

I wonder how someone has respectable as Cain and Fitch can train at the same place as someone as cocky and disrespectful as Kos and Swick

I go to AKA a lot, none of those guys are as bad as they seem.


Swick is humble and very cool. He goes in does his job and walks out.

If I were as good as either Swick or Kos I might want to gloat too.

It was probably just Koscheck....Swick, Fitch and Cain all seem very humble.

Although the rematch would be cool to see, Saunders performance against Davis was definitely more impressive than Swick's.

Killa B might get his wish! I wouldnt mind seeing it. But there are a lot of up and coming 170 pounders and we most likly wont see it again unless its for number 1 contender. WAR Jake Ellenberger!

EDIT: Plus now we might get to see Swick/Kampman!!!

I don't care how good you are you don't need to act like a prick. It's called sportsmanship. Seems to be a foreign concept sometimes these days.
