    Well that sucks, I really enjoyed watching him. A fight with Fador and him would have been great to watch. Randy is so exact on his executions and Fador is kind of wild and street fight. It is hard to say which way it would have gone.

    Give it some time…… Some one will work out a deal and Randy will come out of the woodwork.
    You got to hand it to the guy for going the distance and stepping away on top.

    Good article on the reasons for retiring. He was waiting on the Fedor fight, but that wasnt going to happen. Plus, Dana White being Dana White.

    I LOVE UFC, but Dana is as crooked as it comes. IMO, Chuck Liddell and Rich Franklin had fights cherry picked for years because KOs and flash is more attractive to the fans. There has been talk for years about judges being biased (not like they arent in any other sport). It is just that Dana is trying to make things seem so legit, but underneath, I think he wants to be more like Vince McMahon.
