I can’t help but wonder whose idea it was to have new WEC featherweight champ Mike Brown on Inside MMA and then ask the panel — which consisted of Brown, Dave "Pee Wee" Herman, and oddsmaker Nick Kalikas — who the best fighter in the WEC is. You know Brown’s going to say it’s him, and you also know the other two guys are going to want to say it’s Urijah Faber, thus implying that Brown got lucky when he beat Faber for the belt at WEC 36. And you know that when this happens it will create a palpably uncomfortable situation for everyone. And yet they do it anyway.
Say what you will, I have no choice but to admire that move. It’s kind of a mini ethics test, because we’d know if one of them said Brown it would only be because he was sitting a few feet away and not because they really believed it. But honesty ruled the day, and as usually happens in real life, awkwardness followed with it.

commentsCongrats guys on raising the bar yet again!
Do we really need the asinine comments about all police being idiots or "Fuck the police"? Truly original. Don't attempt to stand in a man's shoes when you haven't walked his path.
It's been real..... boring.
Not diggin the new stuff, what with the emails and homepages... and especially the giant pop up ads.
Site's blowin up and you guys are getting too big for your britches. Plus, I'm easily intimidated.

Wait, UFC 91 was broadcast from an Oakland Raiders game?
^^ this that is.
I was wondering the same shit it's a definate possibility only those types of people would fight with a chick like that. She probably wouldn't let him buy her a jager bomb or something.
Anyway, to bad EXC isn't around anymore or that cop would be fighting Kimbo on the main event of the next CBS card. And that chick would probably be fighting Cyborg.
Notice the guy in the 'Jack Links' shirt a few seconds before the end. Makes you wonder, will Jack Links shirts replace Affliction shirts for the preferred wardrobe of douchebags?
