rickels, crusher and guida in a 3 way wrestle off for MVA (most valid australopithecine) the winner is awarded the secret of making fire.

Omigawa is tough, that's a good win at 145. For sure they should sign him. Phone Post

You know what's weird? When KJ and Gil fought in Pride, Gil won but it was very close and some thought KJ won.
Gil later lost to Thomson then came back to beat Thomson then KJ beat Thomson then Gil smashes KJ then Gil beats but barely gets by Josh.

Kawajiri also beat JZ where some though JZ beat Josh. I think JZ faced KJ just coming off injury though.



What gives?

Of course they should, problem is that I don't think Kawajiri wants to fight in the UFC. If I recall correctly he said he wants to be One FC, DREAM, and Bellator champ.

It would be a very solid addition. crusher is not young, either in age or fighting career, but he still has a lot to give and would be very versatile with regard to matchmaking, with the stature to fight top guys immediately or be a great test for young up-and-comers.

Unfortuantely, while I think KJ at FW would be a good contender in the FW div, i think he should have come sooner than later. He obviously looked lost in the cage in his Melendez fight and would have had to have sometime to adjust to the He's 34 now so it the time to make the switch should have been sooner.

Does anyone know if Zuffa actually talked to him? He has one of the closest and physical types to the American wrestler in the UFC.
