Wren also trains with Travis Lutter, hardly the most popular guy with Zuffa.

Unfortunately the Viking learned the hard way that the UFC has room for only one berserker pillaging rapist, and he’s running the whole show.

Meh, I’ll watch Kimbo on free TV, but asking me to pony up for a PPV is a much harder sell.

Unless he fights Anderson Silva. Then my money belongs to the UFC.

“But one thing I do know is that Kimbo Slice puts butts in seats, and for that reason he has a job in the UFC.”

You’re right, Burrito.

It’s for that very reason that I have contempt both for the UFC and for the millions of so-called MMA fans who have taken the Kimbo bait hook, line, and sinker.

All this talk about cavemen reminded me of Deep Space 9mm by El-P.

Lol!

Touche!

Vinny Magalhaes got cut because he’s not a fighter, dude is an insane grappler, but you could tell when he got hit in the face he wanted no part of fighting.

“Verdict: most people are cavemen with cellphones.”

I can’t argue with that because I’m just a caveman. I’m frightened of your modern world. Your strangely shaped fighting surfaces scare me and confuse me. Sometimes I wonder if that man with the magic stick that makes his voice loud is some kind of wizard who can jump and turn half-circles? Is he going to jump out of my picture box and attack me? I don’t know, because I’m just a caveman. But one thing I do know is that Kimbo Slice puts butts in seats, and for that reason he has a job in the UFC.

it somtimes makes me mad when the bens pretend to be oblivious to the fact the the UFC makes decisions based on money rather than other factors. The bens know damn well that people are cut, paid, and given title shots based on their ass-in-seats ability rather than their there talent and wins. If it were the other way around WEC fighters would be paid double what they are now, john fitch would have had a title shot sooner, Diego would be fighting gray Manor for #1 contender status and nogueira wold have had first shot at couture, yet they still post articles after WEC shows disscussing why they get payed shit and articles such as this talking about why this guys cut and this isnt just to fill space. of course then theirs stephan bonnar, seriously why the fuck is he in the ufc?

“Verdict: most people are cavemen with cellphones.”

LOL! Best line in the thread, rob. I like the way you think.

Kimbozo is more a cash cow than a fighter. Wren got robbed.

Well it really isn’t as much bullshit as you or others may think, if you just give it some thought.

Wren Sucks
Kimbo sucks

Wren doesn’t have any value to the company
Kimbo sells tickets and gets ratings and probably PPV buys

Both should be gone but if you have more worth then what you are costing and brink skill wise you will be around allot longer.

Look at Rosholt and Leben

Rosholt loses and he is cut but yet works Leben.
Leben still has a job.

Why Rosholt has little value and he is paid a little more then guys with his talent and experience. So that is a real good way to get cut allot quicker.

There is a trend with many of these cuts. Some of the guys have a much shorter leash because they want more cash when they come into the UFC, so when they lose and there value goes down there contract doesn’t work anymore.

“Harsh Lesson of Reality:

People will pay to watch Kimbo Slice lose.

People won’t pay to watch Justin Wren win.”

Verdict: most people are cavemen with cellphones.

Weak. Fucking. Sauce.
How I wish Wren would’ve stomped Country Breakfast into the dirt.

LAEM LAEM LAEM

I wouldnt be surprised if they cut everyone from the latest TUF except kimbo/fatnelson/schaub……at least the last two will have couple of more fights…..they all suck

“Kind of” bullshit, Ben? It’s TOTAL bullshit!

Ghetto Slice isn’t as good a fighter as Justin Wren, but Slice hasn’t been cut because his whole cheesy thug persona is marketable. So much for love of the sport, Dana.

He should have fought in those leopard print panties. Then he’d have more name recognition. Seriously.

In general though, shouldn’t a TUF loser only have one shot to impress? I mean, they didn’t win, and yet they all still get one more fight in the UFC, which if they win, they’re guaranteed atlesat another fight or two. Eliot Marshall is a UFC fighter, and he lost TUF to Ryan Bader, but Vinny Marghales was released becasue he didn’t win after losing TUF. Makes perfect sense.

I wonder of Wren could cut to light heavy. He would be a monster.

So he was cut…big deal…he had his chance and he lost.

That is pretty crazy though, I thought Wren was one of the top guys from the show, but then again Madsen wasn’t too impressive and Wren lost to him. I think Wren will be back in a few years or sign with someone else.

I’m still calling him Little Country. He’ll be back.

Harsh Lesson of Reality:

People will pay to watch Kimbo Slice lose.

People won’t pay to watch Justin Wren win.

It wasn’t the loss. It was the leopard print.
