Im pulling out. I dont want Coleman to get injured right before Zenith. He has agreed to fight him once everything is over. Fair decision, but it literally would never have happened.

Cool, we mentioned the phone call, so I will bring up how that ended. After explaining to Kruze (for the 3rd season in a row) that any time after the 4th-last event of the season is a HORRIBLE time for drama/changes (huge ManMMA work load to wrap up season), Kruze had a last request. Kruze wanted: a) his Gift Point back (remember the one he told me to shove up my ass?) Yeah, he asked me for that back... b) an extra point for his win of the event HE himself simmed. I said no to both. Perhaps he was upset with that and decided to shit-disturb a little bit? Here's how this works now. If Bulldozers doesn't want to do the fight NOW because of Zenith next event, he can pull out. But the rules about who can fight who are NOT, I repeat NOT changing. Here's why: I started this site 2 years ago to see fantasy fights. Fights I would never see in real life. That is what excites me about this site when it launched and what excites me about it now. Catchweight fights here are fights you will NEVER see in real life, and I am not taking those out. The rule as it is written stands. Call it a dictatorship all you want, but if you want me simming, that is a rule I am not changing. PERIOD.No, this wasn't to shit disturb but to create conversation because it was in fact you that suggested to me to post something here if I had a concern about it to get feedback from others. Now you've tried to turn it around into some sort of shit disturbing thing on my part. It's not. Now, I realize that seeing fights we normally wouldn't get to see is part of the aim here, but that's not really the concern here either, nor is it that it's a catchweight fight... it's the fact that it involves a champion that otherwise no one within their own division can challenge them to a non-title fight, but ANYONE else r the sun can. That's not right dude. If Champions aren't able to accept challenges from ANYONE, regardless weightclass, then Champions should not be allowed to accept challenges at all. It's only fair to the rest of the league a to the rest of the league and the rest of the fighters within that Champion's division that he's not allowing to have a shot at him cuz the have to "earn it" through the tournament, but any schlub from another division can take him/her on at any time. That's ridiculous. If they're a title holder then they shouldn't be only allowed non-title fight against other divisions, it should be league-wide or no non-title fights at all. And the fact that you you're now say that "The rule as it is written stands." and "that is a rule I am not changing" just tells me that this isn't a rule for the league, this is rule for you, and you alone... but thing is that no one is suggesting that we can't have catchweight fights nor is anyone suggesting we can't see fights we wouldn't normally get to see, it's just simply not fair the rest of the fighters in a champion's division for their champion to be accepting challenges to everyone else under the sun and not to anyone within their weightclass. There's plenty of other fighters in the league to challenge other than the 4 champions if you're not going to allow fighters within the same weightclass to issue non-title challenges to their own champion as well.

You do realize it was brought out to be fun right? To see fights we'd never see? Because this site is a big game that's supposed to be entertaining? And you're all like, fuck entertainment, I want this to be real life?
This isn't real life, Kruze. I want to see random fights that make me smile, but the only fights I see on this site 90% of the time is you and GAP having a problem with something.
It's sad, really.

Yeah, it feels like the more fun things I introduce here, the more the fun gets sucked out of not only those new ideas, but out of the site as a whole. It makes me feel sad for ManMMA and its members who are just here to have some fun. This is not fun.

I do. And if that is a rule.. it should be posted somewhere. Oh it's posted... manmma.proboards.com/thread/4976/challengesBut while I was staff, I had to supposedly post a poll to make a rule... this was done with no poll. Funny how that works. bullying

Dan Severn:
I've fought two and three fights in one night, I would shy away from a bout if I had to fight again a month later. If Super Coleman the champ of "I bail because I'm afraid" is out, put me in the main event and I'll show the world what a real fighter is.
Fighters never back down. Coleman's got Gold around his waist and now he's Fabio.

Ben Askren Coleman has the balls to talk shit about me when I am partially concious, but as soon as it's time to put up or shut up, he cancels the fight. A "champion"? Are you kidding me? I am done with that coward. He's not worth the sweat on my sack. Bring on Severn. I'm not one to kiss ass, but you have to respect a guy like Dan who will take a new opponent on a moments notice to save a card. Got nothing bad to say about the guy. Let's give them a show, brother. Mad respect.

Randy Couture:
I trained with Coleman and helped him grow into the champion he's become. Rocketmen fighters are never one to stay down on earth, we go sky high to fight against all odds. I'm glad Coleman's gone. The decision to call someone out, schedule the fight and then walk away without warning is not Rocketmen material. Severn is the man. And after I win this tournament, Coleman will remember what it means to be a Rocketman.

Bulldozers Manager Coleman had no part of him not fighting. It was my decision not his. I want him fully ready for Zenith.
