      Oh I will be there. Only question is if it will be as a fan or the media. I am thinking I would rather just go with some buddies and enjoy it than have to work the event.

        It would probably be better to go as a fan. As media you might get better seats though right?

          Yeah, and that's the rub. I went as a member of the media back in '08 and the seats were AWESOME. That was the Florian-Lauzon Fight Night card and I was literally 10 feet from the octagon; you could clearly see me on the broadcast for all of the televised fights. It was cool but man, it was tough to not go crazy when a guy tapped or was knocked out.

            Very nice, and that sucks on not being able to go crazy.
            10 feet from the octagon must be great

              Well, it's just like any other sporting event; if you are a member of the media, you are supposed to be neutral and not show favortism towards one team/side/player. I understand the reasoning, but man, sometimes it's hard to contain your emotions. Sitting that close was very cool, and what you see in person is very different from television.

                I bet. That must be a great experience, but it must suck if you have a favorite fighter fighting and he wins/gets ko'd and you can't show emotion.

                  Verbally agreed upon

                  A rumored UFC light heavyweight title bout between champion Jon Jones and top contender Quinton Jackson is now nearly official for UFC 135.

                  The UFC announced Wednesday that both men have verbally agreed to square off in the main event of the Sept. 24 card at the Pepsi Center in Denver. The show is also expected to feature a welterweight scrap between Matt Hughes and Diego Sanchez, as well as a heavyweight tilt pitting Ben Rothwell against Mark Hunt.

                      Me too but I'm rolling with Rampage. He's older and Jones has all the time in the world to regain the belt.

                        Same here. I am hoping he can touch Jones chin, because if he can, it could mean night night. This is confirmed for 135 now though.

                          I can't root for a guy who continually says he'll leave MMA the minute he makes more money acting.

                          Correct me if I'm wrong and he didn't say that.

                          But I'm tired of this guy. I'll of course watch him fight anytime he's in the cage, but root for him? Hell no. I used to be a fan of his when Pride was coming over to the US.. but na, dude can go to the ****ing film industry for all I care. GTFO

                          And before anyone brings up Diaz, at least he wants to scrap period. Diaz is a different story than Rampage.

                            ^^ Pretty much how I fell, as well. The only reason I'd want Rampage to win is because it would be easier for Rashad to beat him for the title. With that said, I still want Bones to win.

                              I dont think there is a fighter in the world who wouldnt leave MMA if he could make more money acting. GSP, Diaz, Silva...any of them. Its an easy choice: 1) Get punched in the face and risk injury or death for 2-3 mil a fight or 2) Act in action movies and make equal or more money. Who wouldnt choose two?

                              The difference is he is one of the few people who can actually do it and actually have that choice. Also its just talk from Rampage. He isnt the Rock. He isnt going to make 5 mil a picture especially since the A-Team was a box office dissapointment. No one should ever take anything Rampage says seriously.

                                Pretty much spot on. Hasn't there been a ton of fighters that have been in movies before? I want Rampage to win still personally, I am not a big fan of Jones even if I think he is an amazing fighter. His BJJ or Chin hasn't been tested yet though.
