Really good chance that this goes to decision, I give the edge to BJ, but Sherk's cardio and heart will give him a chance to win any fight.; May 17, 2008 11:06 AM

Anonymous said...: BJ is acting like a child about this seriously. I didn't care about his ravings before but it affected this interview and he made it all about him and his whining. I really didn't care who won this fight before but I hope Sherk dominates him; May 19, 2008 12:19 AM
Anonymous said...: BJ seems to be jumping on the media band-wagon regarding AAS use.He says they need to set a example for the kids, this is mixed martial arts for christs sake.BJ is as uneducated about anabolics and sports performance as he is about the english language, he better start worrying about winning some more fights and not what his competition is on.; May 19, 2008 11:22 PM
Anonymous said...: I can understand how BJ would be passionate about the steroids issue.
As a purist, He feels that it is so
important to show the world -and many
mma up and comers- that to be successful you don't need to pump up you're body with drugs to be up there with the best. It's about sheer willpower and the passion of the sport. I for one hope he beats sherk's face in to prove that point.; May 20, 2008 12:34 AM

Anonymous said...: It's funny how BJ keeps talking crap about how Sherk got "beat so bad" that he moved down to a lower weight class.... Umm, As I recall, BJ got his ass beat in the welterweight division and moved down himself. Hypocrisy. I never liked BJ, no heart, way too cocky, and in this interview, he just sounds like a whiny punk. I hope Sherk breaks him down and then destroys him.; May 21, 2008 9:46 AM
Essential said...: Ah yes, the pre-fight hype...
I'd like to share a little story about Public Relations.

Unfortunatly, most Americans (and then some around the globe) are aware of this blond woman named Paris. How? No one knew a damn thing about this broad until "someone" (her agent or publicist or whomever) "leaked" her porn tape to the media. Questions need to be asked here. What makes her so special that she becomes a celebrity from a porn tape? Who leaked it? Why was it leaked? Why did she get T.V. programs, magazine covers, etc. when there are WAY better pornstars out there who can both act and fuck better? Who decided to make her so damn important. Not that I would endorse Jenna Jameson (in her prime) to teach my kids about life, I sure as hell wouldn't endorse some no-name rich girl who someone decided that they could make alot of money off of her.

Now my point with MMA. The UFC and other highly promoted fighting organizations need to hype up every fight they can ($$$$$), so they throw in all this emotional bullshit to create drama to draw more fans (also, it is good for drawing more female fans). So people can be like "Sherk sucks the roids" or "BJ is a whiner" Look people, all of this is made publicly aware just for the sake of hype. Believe me when I tell you that there is ALOT more drama behind the scenes that 99% of all mma fans will NEVER see beacause it would hurt the sport.

However, it will be very interesting who wins this fight. Very excited. And as always, thank you Richard for all that you do, especially posting my diatribes.

Stay Strong,
