I am very disappointed in hearing this. Especially after all the trash he talked and now was calling out GSP and Lesnar as well, I guess roids make you say stupid things as well!

Sonned may talk more shit then even Ali did. He is very funny & entertaining. I hope he beats Anderson next time. That being said.. He only talks shit about Brock because he knows they could never meet. Not in the Octagon at least. Good thing for him too. I say they do an Open weight Tourny. Like in the Pride days.

If he is proved to have been all roided up it probably explains all the shit he was talking as his mouth was writing checks his body couldn't cash without sticking syringes in his ass. I hope Dana cancels the rematch if the failed test is upheld as he doesn't deserve it.

Guys like that who insist on roiding up are bad for the sport and have no place in MMA. I hope Dana shows him the door for being a fraud.

The reason he talked so much shit is 1. He's a politician and 2. He was fighting the least drawing champion in the UFC, so with him talking shit, he got more buys. I think Sonnen only got something like 1% share of buys.

If its confirmed, thats too bad. I really enjoyed him beating the snot out of Silva. It was the first fight where Silva was actually in a fight since Dan Henderson.

Yeah, I also read on MMA Junkie that Belfort would be fighting Okami for the top contender spot...that should be a fun fight to watch...can't wait.

Spike TV's "Brocktober" includes UFC 116 replay, UFC 121 "Primetime" special
Spike TV officials have dubbed next month "Brocktober" and have crammed a variety of Brock Lesnar-related programming into a four-week span.

The lineup includes a new three-part "UFC Primetime: Lesnar vs. Velasquez" pre-UFC 121 special that debuts Oct. 6.

Additionally, Spike TV airs a replay of July's UFC 116 pay-per-view event, a blockbuster show that was headlined by champ Lesnar and interim title-holder Shane Carwin, on Oct. 20.

This is the 2nd time in a row Belfort has had to pull out of a fight due to injury. Who knows what is going on.

Belfort isn't hurt. He's fighting Anderson for the title.

Okami/Marquart is now happening.

Belfort doesn't deserve a title shot at 185. He's never fought at MW and hell he had a hard time cutting down to 195.

I just don't feel he's done enough to earn a shot.
